Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

Adele thought about it for a long time but could not come up with any good ideas.

But no matter what, Professor Wes’s birthday was an important day. Since she and Damon had already gotten their certificate, it was not a big deal for the family to go out for a meal together.

It was better to make things clear with Damon and ask for his opinion.

After making up her mind, Adele breathed a sigh of relief. After the heavy burden in her heart was relieved, she fell asleep.

When they met again, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Adele was bored to death in her room. She heard the sound of a car coming from outside the window. She went to the window and saw a familiar car.

Not long after, there was the sound of a door opening in the study on the second floor. Adele pushed open the door and walked out of the bedroom. Just as she reached the stairs, she saw Mary carrying the freshly brewed tea.

“Mary, is Damon back?” Adele asked in a soft voice.

“Yes, Young Master just came back, but he doesn’t seem to be very happy.”

“Huh?”

Adele suddenly became nervous. She had been waiting for Damon to come back and planned to tell him about her father’s birthday tomorrow, but she didn’t expect that he was in a bad mood.

“What’s wrong, Young Madam? What’s wrong?” Mary asked in confusion.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“There’s nothing wrong,” Adele said as she noticed the tea tray. She hurriedly reached out to take it. “Mary, give me the tea. I’ll send it over.”

“Alright, be careful.”

After taking the tray, Adele took a deep breath and walked directly to the study room.

No matter what, this matter could not be delayed. Her mom had already booked a restaurant for dinner, and the address and time had been sent to her. If she did not handle it well, she would definitely be criticized by her again.

Walking to the door, Adele freed up a hand and knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

Hearing the man’s cold voice coming from inside, Adele mustered up the courage to push the door in.

Damon was sitting in front of the desk, staring at the computer table with a serious look. His face was indeed a bit colder than usual.

“This is the tea that Mary just brewed,” Adele said softly.

“Thanks.”

Damon replied indifferently without raising his head.

Adele paused for a moment, then took the initiative to pour him a cup of tea. “Aren’t you tired from working today?” she asked.

“It’s alright.” As Damon spoke, he looked up at her and his tone finally softened a little. “Have you changed the gauze?”

“Yes, I have.”

The man’s sudden concern immediately disrupted Adele’s rhythm. “I…”

“Is there anything else?” Damon looked at her.

“Nothing much. I just wanted to chat with you. I’ve been here for a few days and I haven’t seen your parents. Actually, I’m quite curious about your parents…” Adele forced a smile and pretended to be casual.

Before she could finish speaking, she noticed that Damon’s face had suddenly darkened. Only then did she stop speaking.

“Did I… say something wrong?” she asked hesitantly.

Damon’s face was solemn and his eyes were cold. However, he seemed to be enduring something. A moment later, he stood up and looked down at Adele. “Adele, you have too much free time, don’t you?” He asked in a low voice.

This sentence was a bit unexpected, causing Adele to be stunned and unable to speak.

“I…”

“If I were you, I would put my energy into my work and focus on how to deal with the rumors in the company instead of paying attention to these insignificant things!” Damon lowered his eyebrows and took half a step forward to approach her, saying coldly.

After saying this in a deep voice, Damon gave her a deep look and no longer stayed. He strode towards the door.

Adele stood rooted to the ground, and her mind went blank. She never thought that he would be so angry just because she mentioned something about his parents.

Moreover, now that they had gotten married, they were now a family. His parents were her in-laws. It was normal for her to want to know them. So how could it not be important?

Could it be that Damon had never treated her as a family?

As this thought flashed through her mind, Adele suddenly felt a chill in her heart and felt a little disappointed.

Although she had not intended to ask him to be loyal to her, now it seemed that they were no different from strangers.

Adele felt uncomfortable and wronged. When she heard the sound of the engine starting and the car driving away from downstairs, she slowly walked out of the room.

“Young Madam, what happened? Why did Young Master suddenly leave again?” Mary asked in a panic.

“Mary, I seem to have made him angry again.” Adele clasped her hands together and lowered her head.

“What… what happened?”

Adele had no choice but to tell her. When she heard her mention the matter of Damon’s parents, Mary’s face immediately changed.

“Young Madam, so you don’t know! Young Master’s mother is a forbidden topic!”

“What? A forbidden topic!” Adele was dumbfounded.

This was the first time she had heard that parents could be a forbidden topic!

“Ah! You don’t know. Madam had a tough life. She left when Young Master was twenty years old. Madam died of illness and wanted to see Old Master before she died. However, Old Master was busy with business and could not rush back. Since then, there has been a gap between Young Master and Old Master…”

“Young Master is not close to Old Master. He does not want others to mention his parents, so…” Mary sighed.

Adele finally understood why Damon had such a big reaction just now.

“Then… what should I do?”

Just to mention the matter of inviting Damon’s parents to his father’s birthday banquet, she had touched upon his taboo. It was difficult for her to appease Damon now.

“Young Madam, you can’t blame yourself too much. You didn’t know. He will get better. It’s not a big deal.”

Although she said this, Adele felt like there was a big stone pressing down on her heart. She took a deep breath and asked, “Mary, teach me how to apologize to him. I really didn’t do it on purpose this time…”

“Young Master really likes to drink the soup I made. Why don’t I teach you how to make it and you can make it for him?”

Adele’s eyes lit up, and she immediately said, “Okay!”.

Rather than apologizing with words, it was better to do something for him personally.

She hit it off with Mary, and Adele immediately followed her into the kitchen to learn how to make the soup.

After two hours in the kitchen, Adele finally grasped the key to Mary’s secret recipe.

The next morning, Adele rushed to the kitchen as soon as she got up. After she got the fresh ribs that Mary had just bought, she began to make the soup.

She had already thought about it. When she finished making the ribs soup, she would send it to the company. In this way, maybe Damon would be able to attend her father’s birthday banquet with her in the evening.

Even if his parents could not come, she would be satisfied if he could be there.
