Chapter 5: Men who avoidedTroy saw that Carl's entire body was swaying as if a breeze could flip Carl from behind. He was so scared that he hurriedly moved his two short legs to run to Carl's side.He held Carl's arms tightly after a moment of hesitation and whispered," Carl, don't be afraid. Adele doesn' t eat people."
Carl was speechless.
Michael did not seem to notice anything strange about Carl. He glanced at Troy standing beside Carl and turned to walk towards the other end of the corridor.
Carl looked at the man whose back even emitted a noble and imposing aura that no one dared to provoke, and continuously rolled his eyes.
Could it be that only he could tell that he and Troy looked the same.?
...
After learning that Troy and Carl were at Francis Hospital, Adele rushed over.
When Adele arrived in front of the elevator in the VIP building, he was sweating profusely.
Adele reached out and pressed the elevator. He frowned and stood there panting.
A few seconds later, the elevator in front of her opened. Adele didn't even think before stepping in.
Almost the instant Adele stepped into the elevator, he immediately sensed an extremely penetrating and sharp gaze shooting towards him.
Adele's figure was slightly sluggish as she looked up in surprise.
When that man's silhouette was as clear as a vampire's, a very white and handsome face appeared in her eyes. Adele's brain seemed to have been thrown into an atomic bomb when he was unprepared.
At that moment, if one had to use one word to describe Adele's feelings, it would be: Soul Scattered.
Adele never would have thought that she would meet him here...
Michael stood at the side of the elevator with a Bluetooth headset on his left ear. He seemed to be on the phone.
His brows furrowed slightly, his thin lips pressed together, and his expression was cold, but his deep black eyes were focused on Adele.
It was as if he had expelled her with displeasure, but it also seemed to have a deeper meaning...Exploration.
Adele's heart was beating like thunder, her limbs were stiff, and her body was drenched in sweat.
This was the first time he had experienced such a strong physical reaction. Adele felt strange and terrifying.
At the same time, she was wearing a snow-spun white sleeveless long skirt today.The dress was originally a loose and breathable design, but because of the sweat on her body, the dress was tightly pressed against her skin. This feeling made Adele feel suffocated.
Ding.
The elevator door closed behind her and slowly sank the next second.
Adele was speechless.
What, what was going on.?
Wasn't it going up?
The corners of Adele's eyes twitched like they were cramping...
So, she was too anxious and didn't see it. Did she get into the wrong elevator?
It was one thing to get on the wrong elevator, but she even bumped into a man that she would never be able to avoid in her life?
As expected, no one should be stupid at any time.
He felt that the gaze that had landed on him had been removed.
Adele her emotions were complicated and messy, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Just now, he had not left the elevator and was glaring at her like a tiger watching its prey. She thought that he had recognized her and was scared out of her wits.
It seemed like she was too feel guilty nervous.
The reason why he had been looking at her unkindly from the start was that he was unhappy with her sudden intrusion.
Indeed, on the night four years ago, he turned off the lights and went to sleep.He might not even know what happened that night, so how could he recognize her?
Thinking of this, Adele tensed heartstrings relaxed again.
He pinched his trembling fingers and Adele took a deep breath. He tried his best to keep his calm and turned around naturally.
At the same time, the elevator stopped on the B2 floor.
Adele's pair of clear eyes flickered, and from the corner of his eyes, he could not help but glance to the side.She quickly looked twice at the man's handsome face even though it was gloomy and impatient. Then, she retracted her gaze like a thief.
Adele thought that she looked very secretive, but she didn't know that any of her tiny actions could n' t escape the eyes of the man.
Michael's frown deepened.
It was obvious that Adele's sudden intrusion and her subsequent peeping made Michael, who was filled with rejection and disgust towards strangers, even more, displeased.
As soon as the elevator opened, Michael didn't stop for a second. He closed his lips and strode out.
It was as if he wasn't in an elevator but a garbage dump.
A rubbish dump.?
So, she was trash?
Moreover, if she didn't hear her hallucination, he would have snorted coldly when he passed her...
Adele was speechless.
