Adrienne nodded slightly. After thinking for a while, she said, "I know, you don't have to worry about this. I know he has been looking for me. There is a servant in my family that we can trust. She has been telling me everything that happened there recently. She said that there is a new housekeeper who has come to the house, and he is not a simple person."
"Do you know who he is?" Delmont was a little worried. After all, they had been targeting Victor and his sister.
Adrienne nodded and said, "He is also someone who was forced to leave River City by old Mr. Alwynn, just like my father."
"It's the old generation's thing again," Delmont said helplessly. He took her hand and sat on the sofa.
"Well, the Alwynn family is a family with a long history, so it's inevitable for them to have several enemies. The business field is like a battlefield anyway, and it's easy to offend someone. Some people just won't accept failure." Delmont sighed in his heart. He had been thinking about this matter for a long time.
Since they were married, he would have to face it sooner or later.
"With your father's personality, what do you think he would ask me to do in order to accept me as his son-in-law?" He asked seriously.
He had been watching Glenn growing up day by day, and he really wanted a child that belonged to them.
That would be the perfect family he wanted.
Adrienne looked at him and smiled.
"You are so silly. Haven't you forgotten that I am your wife already?" She leaned in his arms and put her hand in his big palm.
"It doesn't matter whether he agrees or not. We have been together for a long time. The only thing I worry about is that he would hurt the Clement family." This was what worried her most.
She knew what her father was capable of. He tried so hard to maintain a good image of their family.
However, the Simpson family was already falling apart.
She also knew that he had a mistress because he couldn't resist the temptation at all.
Dahlia used her beauty and got the shares and the villa from him straightaway.
Those assets were worth much more than the money she could earn by herself in her whole life, no matter how smart and hard-working she was.
Adrienne had already told Leilani about what happened between Dahlia and her father.
At least Leilani was still his wife, so she believed that she wouldn't just let this happen in front of her eyes.
Delmont smiled. "That's true. You're already my wife now."
He put his arms around her and hugged her tightly, and then rested his head on her shoulder.
"We have been living together for several months now, but I still feel like everything is a dream." He tilted his head and kissed her on her cheek.
He was so worried, but he didn't know what he could do to stop Barrett from hurting her.
Before Barrett came to them, what could he do to make him decide to let her go?
He knew he wasn't a smart person himself, and he almost lost her once.
Both of them fell into silence.
Adrienne had already done so much for Delmont, so this time, he knew he had to sort this out for her.
......
Victor went back to Sean's studio, and Eden was almost done.
Sean was drying her hair when Victor came in. He smiled and said to Victor, "Come and have a look. Your wife is so beautiful. I don't think you are good enough for her anymore."
Victor glared at him.
How come he was getting married so soon?
Eden shook her head and laughed. "It already took him four years to finally be with Margery now. Of course, he wanted to marry her as soon as possible.
And it was Margery's idea anyway, so why do you think it's unfair? They both have their own career now, so it's very normal for them to think about getting married."
Hearing this, Victor took a step forward and held her hand suddenly. "We must have our wedding this year." He felt so jealous now. He was the one who got a girlfriend first, but why did everyone else get married before him?
"I know. We will do it this year. Anyway, Let's go home now." She was very tired already after waiting for so long to get her hair done.
Sean had used the best product on her hair, so it didn't smell much. Now that her hair got cut shorter, she felt so much refreshed.
Victor checked the time and said, "Let's go have dinner first. We have nothing at home now. Let's go to the supermarket after dinner."
Eden nodded slightly. "By the way, I want to go abroad in a few days."
Hearing this, Victor's whole body tightened instantly.
"Where are you going?" His voice didn't sound very pleasant.
"I want to visit my parents and our children. Gia will be participating in the painting exhibition soon, so I want to be there for her. This is a very important moment in her life, and I'm her mom, so I can't miss it." She dreamed of her daughter last night, and her daughter's little face was very unhappy. She dreamed of her saying "I miss you" and then disappeared straightaway.
She felt so sad after she woke up.
So she came up with this idea when she was getting her hair done. She had to be there.
"Then I'll go with you."
"Don't you need to work?" Eden looked at him with a smile, picked up her bag and phone, and walked out.
