Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 2822: Chapter 2831: Baron Lawrence Finally Answered the Phone

Her eyes glistened with tears, as if she had suffered great humiliation. Her left hand clenched into a fist, desperately suppressing her emotions.

Adam Sinclair frowned as he watched her performance.

If...

If he had his old personality, he would probably doubt if he had misunderstood her.

But he was no longer eighteen, and neither was Renee.

Over the years, as he gradually took over the Sinclair Corporation, countless women had come and gone around him. It wasn’t until he met Olivia Lewis that he knew what it felt like to love someone.

Before he learned how to love, he had seen too many women’s performances.

He had to admit, Renee’s acting skills were top-notch among the women he had met. Her expressions, reactions, and words could easily make a man feel guilty and then doubt himself.

But no matter what, today, in the bar, it was only the two of them. The drug in the wine couldn’t have been added by the bartender. The only person who could have drugged him was her!

Connecting the dots with what she had said before, it could be deduced. She had long planned this scene. First, she took advantage of Austin Harper’s trust in her, then used his trust in Austin to get him to come out. Then she arrived early to drug the wine, or possibly had the bartender use a drug-soaked glass... In short, she found a way to tamper with his drink. She timed it perfectly to ’come over,’ according to the plan she made with Austin and sent him away...

Such scheming!

No wonder Baron had always disliked her, calling her a beautiful snake.

Back then, he liked her and didn’t believe what Baron said; they almost fell out because of it.

Adam took a deep breath, trying hard to suppress the flames in his lower abdomen, but he found he couldn’t control his physiological reactions.

No matter if he wanted it or not, his body had already started to undergo a normal change for a man.

"Let go!" Adam’s temples throbbed, and his steps faltered.

Renee immediately supported him, leaning in closer, "Adam, what have you misunderstood about me? How could I just leave you like this?"

Adam was both angry and furious, thinking about her repeated manipulations, then thinking about Olivia Lewis, who was still unconscious in the hospital, a fire rose in his heart, almost making him swear!

Unfortunately, his elite education from a young age and his manners as a man prevented him from doing so.

He gritted his teeth, trying to control himself, desperately trying to hold on a little longer. He shoved her away with a sweeping motion, taking advantage of the chance to dial Baron Lawrence’s number again.

"Beep—"

Answer the phone, Baron!

Answer the phone quickly!

If he didn’t, he didn’t know what unacceptable things might happen!

Perhaps the heavens heard his prayer, and after over ten rings, the phone was picked up, "Hello."

Baron Lawrence’s deep voice came through the receiver.

Adam had never found this voice so wonderful before, and he almost couldn’t wait to speak into the phone, "Baron, come and get me quickly!"

"Where are you?" Baron Lawrence, sensing something was wrong, asked immediately.

Seeing that her painstakingly set trap was about to be broken, Renee knew this was her last chance. She couldn’t care about anything else and pretended to twist her ankle, lunging forward.

"Ah."

Due to the drug in his system, Adam had little strength. The phone in his hand was knocked out, hitting the ground with a thud, the screen going black as the connection was cut off.
