Love Me Or Leave Me

Chapter 244

"If you're worried you can't change the fact, why not try being sincere? Just do your best," Hayden comforted. Patrick and Debra nodded. They rested for most of the day. In the evening, Bryce also applied for leave and came home. When he got home, he comforted his parents and reprimanded Charlie for gloating.

However, Charlie was used to being shameless. In other words, he had long resented Adrian for not allowing him to visit Isabella and Damian back then. What went around came around. After being forced to hide, he could finally visit Isabella and Damian freely, so he was excited.

The Carter family planned to visit Isabella and Damian tomorrow.

Meanwhile, in front of Isabella's house, Adrian stood at the door for a long time. His legs were numb, but she had no intention of opening the door. Isabella was cooking dinner in the kitchen. Looking sullen, she was apparently in a bad mood.

Damian played alone in the living room but was not as focused as usual. The door seemed to catch his attention more than the toy. After playing with the toy for a while, he turned his head and looked at the door again. After a while, someone knocked on the door again.

A series of knocks sounded. However, the house was silent, and there was no movement. No one opened the door for him. Adrian was quiet for a long time and finally sat at the door. Slightly lowering his head and staring at his chest, he didn't understand why his heart hurt so much and wondered, 'So this is love? Because I fell in love with Isabella, she is mad and doesn't want to talk to me. Maybe she doesn't want me anymore, so my heart is hurting like now.' The tall man bore the pain for a long time, but finally, he couldn't stand it anymore. He lowered his head and buried his face in his knees.

Isabella had been busy for a long time in the house and finished making dinner. She realized that she subconsciously cooked for three people only after the meal was ready. Staring at the food, Isabella's face fell again. Finally, she composed herself and took the food to the dining room. Then, she looked at Damian and smiled. "Damian, go wash your hands. It's time for dinner."

Hearing this, Damian looked at her and hurriedly nodded. "Sure!" He had been with Isabella since childhood, and he knew that her life was not easy, so he was very sensible. He ran to the bathroom, turned on the tap, quickly washed his hands, and returned to the dining room.

Isabella filled a plate of pasta for Damian and said, "Eat." He picked up the plate, hesitated momentarily, and couldn't help saying, "Mommy, Daddy is outside." Upon hearing that, she froze before uttering, "Ignore him."

Damian hesitated and still dwelled on it. After a long time, he got off the stool, ran to the kitchen, opened the cupboard, took out a plate, and ran out with a fork. Damian put the plate and fork for Adrian on the table and said, "Mommy, I'll go ask Daddy to have dinner."

After saying that, Damian ran to the door. He had long legs as he took after Adrian. He was already very tall at three years old, so he could easily grab the doorknob, hold it with his tiny hands, and open the door.

Adrian leaned against the door and suddenly felt the door behind him had opened. He was stunned for a moment, overjoyed, and quickly turned around to look inside the house.

However, the scene where Isabella opened the door for him as he had imagined didn't happen. Instead, Damian was standing at the door with his hand on it. Apparently, Damian opened the door for him.

Adrian was stunned. He looked at Damian and carefully raised his head to look inside the house. Isabella was sitting at the table, eating.

"Daddy, it's time for dinner." Damian looked at Adrian and simply spoke. Then, he turned around, ran back to the dining table, climbed onto his seat, held the plate, and began eating.

Adrian looked at Isabella before carefully walking in. Damian opened the door for him, but Isabella didn't stop him, so he wondered, 'I guess she allows me to come in.' After he entered, he closed the door softly.

When he got inside, Adrian approached the dining table and saw enough food for three people, including his empty plate and fork. He instantly lost control of his expressions and smiled like a fool.

The next moment, Adrian wasn't bashful anymore. He immediately picked up the fork and offered Isabella and Damian some food. He had been with Isabella for almost a year, and now he knew what they both liked to eat. "Eat more," he said with a smile.

However, Isabella blocked the food

he picked up with her fork. The smile on Adrian's face froze slightly. After a while, he retreated his fork hesitantly. didn't mean to lie to you." He remained silent for a long time before finally explaining

nervously, "Isabella, I didn't get

lie to you. I just... I know you and Carly don't like rich scions. I was worried it might scare you, so I hid my identity. But don't worry. Although I'm one, not all of them are bad people. The Carter family is very nice, and we would never do those things." He felt a little aggrieved when he said the last word.

Isabella looked up at him. Holding his small plate and spoon, Damian searched for some meat. Seeing this, she picked up a spoon and placed some meat on his plate.

Adrian didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a long time, he finally picked up the plate and started eating carefully. Isabella cooked the meal. Although it was just an ordinary dish, he found it delicious. 'Could this be my last time eating her food?' he thought and felt uneasy, so he slowed his pace.

Adrian explained, "I'm investigating

Carly's case and have found some evidence, but someone has destroyed them. It'll take some time to recover them. The people I asked managed to restore most of it. If nothing goes wrong, they will be restored later. Isabella, if you and Carly still want to overturn the case, I can help you. I-I've been looking for the evidence back then and decided to reveal my identity after helping you overturn the case."

Isabella froze because he mentioned Carly's incident back then. Her face darkened and even became pale with a hint of hatred toward wealthy scions. You can really do whatever you want when you're rich! I hate all those rich people!' she exclaimed inwardly. At the thought of it, her phone rang. It was Carly. She froze again and felt a little confused.
