Please Let Me Go
Chapter 19 There Are Conflicts Again

"The family dinner is in three days. Damla should have told you about it. Grandma specially called to say this. You need to prepare for it."

Antonio was very filial to his grandmother. As long as he could do it, he would never let Hermosa down. He looked at Adelaide and spoke in a commanding tone.

Adelaide nodded. When she got up in the morning, she saw Antonio's toothbrush in the mouthwash, and his towel was also wet. She guessed that Antonio had slept in her room last night.

But when she had opened her eyes, she did not see Antonio. Adelaide was a bit regretted and guilty. If she had gone to bed late last night, she would have known whether Antonio had returned to the room to sleep.

She stamped her feet in anger. Antonio put on a long face on the table, which made Adelaide dare not ask him about the matter of last night. Even when she was eating, Adelaide was in a daze. She put her chopsticks in her mouth. But there was no food on them!

It was rare that Antonio didn't go to the company today. Adelaide went back to her room to read a book for a while. But she couldn't read it. Thinking of the family dinner three days later, she was afraid that Antonio would anger Hermosa.

Throwing the book in the rocking chair, Adelaide felt it necessary to talk to Antonio.

When they had breakfast just now, although she was thinking about whether Antonio had slept in the room last night, she was also paying attention to Antonio. It could be seen that he did not eat much because of his grandmother's phone call.

Adelaide went downstairs to cook his favorite soup and served it to the study while it was hot.

She knocked on the door of the study.

"Come in."

She remembered that Antonio didn't like people coming in without knocking. So, with one hand holding the soup bowl, she knocked the door three times with the other hand. Hearing his words, Adelaide opened the door.

Antonio looked up at her, and lowered his head again to sort his papers.

"Antonio, you seem not to have eaten much. I've cooked your favorite soup. Eat it while it's warm."

Adelaide put the bowl on his desk and sat opposite him.

Antonio smelled the familiar smell of the soup in the bowl and suddenly felt hungry. Thinking of Adelaide's baby, his face also softened, "You are pregnant now. Just let Damla do it."

Adelaide had not heard him care about her for a long time. She was very happy. If it was not for her baby in her belly, she would have jumped up and circled around several times.

She nodded with a bright smile. Adelaide was a woman who would forget all other people's mistakes and become very tolerant as long as others were a bit kind to her. It was precisely because of this that she was always bullied by Clarissa. But she still believed in love, "Antonio, I didn't know that you like Clarissa. So, I'm sorry."

Antonio looked up in confusion.

Adelaide lowered her head and grabbed the corner of her clothes, "Antonio, I don't care about what happened between you and Clarissa. I just want my child to be born safely now."

She thought that the person Antonio liked was Clarissa. Because she was the other woman between them, she felt guilty. Now, she figured it out. As long as her baby could be safe, it was OK for her to give Antonio to Clarissa. No. it should be said that she returned Antonio to Clarissa.

Anyway, Antonio was not hers. It was enough for her to have the baby.

Adelaide thought that she was planning for Antonio. She did not see Antonio's face as cold as ice, "Antonio, even if you marry Clarissa after divorce, it doesn't matter. I'm not going to use the baby to stop you." "Is that what you're here to tell me?" 'Tell me that I'm not as important as a child that you've only been carrying for a few months?' Adelaide did not realize Antonio's cold tone when he spoke this.

She had always been careless and did not notice anything wrong with Antonio. She kept lowering her head, "Yes. Don't worry. I will explain to grandmother clearly as well."

"Is that so? Then you are really thoughtful!"

Antonio almost gritted his teeth as he said these words. Adelaide only wallowed in self-pity. She nodded, as if she was saying her last words, "Brother has left us. You are now the only son in the Baron family. Don't anger grandma and others."

Hermosa had wanted a great-grandson for a long time. Otherwise, she would not have forced Antonio to marry a girl by the chance of marriage. Besides, she liked Adelaide very much.

But Antonio angered Hermosa for Clarissa. They always quarreled over the matter of Adelaide and Clarissa. The family banquet was supposed to be a party for the family to gather happily. If Antonio fell out with Hermosa again because of Adelaide, it would only be a joke.

Brother was Bennett Baron, Antonio's elder brother.

Adelaide's original intention was to remind Antonio that he was the pillar of the Baron family by mentioning his brother. He could not make grandmother angry for trifles. And what she said before was to pave the way for the last sentence. She could give up the position of the president's wife. She also did not want any money from the Baron family for her children.

She did this because she wanted to live with her child. Before she left the Baron family, she wanted to try her best to do something for grandmother and Antonio.

Antonio, who was originally patient, dropped the ashtray beside his hand to the ground. The cigarette butts inside fell on the floor. Some of the ashes inside floated onto the clothes of them.

But no one cared about how the clothes were. Antonio rushed to Adelaide and forced her to the corner of the wall. He narrowed his eyes slightly with anger, "You don't deserve to mention my brother!" If it wasn't for this woman, how could his brother have died?

Adelaide was confused and did not know what she said was wrong. She thought that Antonio misunderstood that she did not respect his brother. So, she hurriedly explained, "Antonio, don't misunderstand. I'm not disrespecting brother. I just..."

Before she could finish speaking, Antonio smashed on the wall. His eyes were full of sadness and anger like a wounded beast, "Stop mentioning him. You do not deserve!"

Tears poured down her cheeks, dripping like boiling water on his arm, and even more in his heart. Antonio became even angrier. He was the one who lost his brother and she was the one who did something wrong. Why was she crying? "Stop crying!"

Hearing this, Adelaide shivered. She held back her tears but did not dare to offend Antonio, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

"Also, I have warned you that you are mine and can only be mine in this life. You want to run away? If you dare, I will break your legs."

With that, Antonio kissed her before Adelaide collected herself. He felt that her lips were warm and soft. He never kissed her long enough.

He left her lips and frowned, "Don't you ever forget my words." Antonio's thumb rubbed against her lips. After a moment, he bit on her lips again.‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒
