Chapter 41 Forced Smile
Chapter 41 Forced Smile
Hanna was not happy. She remembered Adelaide's birthday seemed to be in February, and she liked
the elegant light blue and pure white!
Adelaide forced a smile. Jerry was still smugly speaking. She intended to spare Clarissa, but now it
was like a sharp sword stabbed into her heart, mocking her ignorance.
“Shut up!”
Her best friend found something wrong with Adelaide, yelled towards Jerry who was still rambling, took Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Adelaide's hand and asked worriedly, “What's wrong?”
Adelaide forced a smile, “Clarissa's birthday is on October 24th.” She took a deep breath, “Clarissa's
favorite color is pink, so her room is decorated in pink.”
It was October 2nd! There was still half a month before her birthday, and he booked birthday gift so
early. Who would believe he did not like her.
Jerry secretly hit his mouth, looked up at Adelaide. It seemed that she would cry out in the next second,
Jerry felt his heart painful!
“It's okay if Antonio does not like Clarissa. And he will not feel sad when he found out the truth. Now it
seems that he really likes Clarissa. We still have to find a way to make Antonio discover her true
nature, and make the harm to Antonio to a minimum.”
Even she did not believe what she had said.
Just now she said she would pretend she did not know about Clarissa’s fake pregnancy and let Antonio
find out for himself, but after a phone call from Antonio, she changed her words, so she was angry.
She didn't want to look deeper or dare to think about it, she was just jealous! She hoped that Antonio
would found that Clarissa was fake pregnancy, and that the only person who was good to them is her
and then went back to her.
Adelaide lowered her eyes, not daring to look at these two.
Hanna was furious.
Jerry swallowed. Looking at Hanna’s furious expression, he timidly asked, “Maybe Antonio made a
mistake, I'll go ask him.”
“No, I'll go. Antonio cheated on Adelaide while she is pregnant, I wil beat him to death!” Hanna said and
was about to rush out.
Adelaide pulled her back and shook her head, “Hanna, don't go. I can fix it.”
Jerry chimed in, “Yes, if you go to him, Antonio will certainly blame Adelaide. I will go and ask his
attitude towards Clarissa’s fake pregnancy.”
Adelaide nodded, but asked him not to ask about Clarissa and just pick a present.
Jerry sighed. Why did Antonio cherish a good woman?
After a while, he came to Antonio's office. Antonio was surprised and asked, “Did your family lecture
you?”
Jerry shook his head, looking at Antonio suspiciously. Since childhood he could not see him through,
he was good at studying and playing games, even taking over the family business.
However, at least he knew what he was doing before, at least he was loyal to his relationship, but now
he could not understand him.
Jerry met his deep eyes and felt sad, “Antonio, I remember you liked Adelaide when you were in
school. Do you still like her?”
Antonio did not understand, but nodded after a while. He used to like Adelaide, but now she got his
only brother death. He did not know how to forgive her.
Jerry did not retort. He sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, “Adelaide's birthday is not now, who did you
buy the present for?”
At these words, Antonio's body trembled and his eyes went cold, “You're curious about me and
Adelaide?”
Jerry shook his head and he didn't beat around the bush with him, “Did you cheat?”
Antonio could not deceive his friend, so he was silent and his face became gloomy, “What did she tell
you?” He thought Adelaide had spoken to his best friend about family matters and was furious, but
what made him even angrier was that Adelaide had met privately with his best friend? So why did they
meet and what did they say? He couldn't help but speculate.
“Don't get Adelaide in trouble. It was me who heard them talking when I went to see Clarissa today.”
Antonio raised his eyebrows and did not object to his question.
“What if that woman is cheating you out of money?” He chose to use a roundabout first to ask Antonio.
Antonio smiled lightly. He felt that Clarissa did not have the intelligence to cheat money. He did not
know Clarissa very well, he was confident that that woman liked him.
“No.”
He said one word to show his confidence.
Jerry frowned, “Then have you ever thought, if ......”
Before he could finish his words, Antonio interrupted directly, darkening his face, “Jerry, did she say
something to you?”
It seemed that it was a fact that Antonio cheated on Adelaide, and he cared a lot about that mistress. If
he talked more, he would provoke Antonio. He shrugged his shoulders and showed an evil smile,
“When will you show me that woman?”
If Antonio abandoned Adelaide for that woman, then he ......
What would he do? Jerry shivered and did not dare to think further about it. He told himself that
Adelaide was his friend’s woman, so he could not have any thought about Adelaide.
No, Adelaide was Antonio’s woman. Jerry tried to hypnotize himself. Shaking off those horrible
thoughts in his head, he stopped asking questions, but his face eased up.
Since she bribed Damla with half a million, she would get news about Adelaide. Clarissa lied on her
own sofa laughing smugly.
The two hourly employees were diligent, so Clarissa let Antonio change these two people into
permanent workers and increase their salary. The employees were pleased and worked more
seriously.
