SWNOVELS Chapter 17 The Disrupted Banquet
Soon, several people with cameras and microphones rushed in from the crowd.
They were reporters. Adelaide was disappointed to see those officious reporters instead of Antonio to come. She was very ashamed. But these reporters didn't care how she was feeling. Master Antonio's wife and her ex-boyfriend had not cut off their relations completely. She was even pregnant with her ex-boyfriend's child.
This would definitely be the headline tomorrow!
Several reporters were eager to get into action and smiled with excitement.
An unknown reporter was the first to come to Adelaide. She asked sharply, "Hello, Mrs. Baron. Do you have any rebuttal to this gentleman's words?"
"Hello, Mrs. Baron. Is your relationship with this gentleman really like he said it is?"
"Mrs. Baron. Are you really cuckolding Master Antonio?"
"Hello!"
"Mrs. Baron!"
After the first person spoke, other reporters all followed and asked question. As more and more people asked questions, their questions were more and more shameful. "Channing, what the hell do you want? I have nothing to do with you anymore." Unable to explain to these people, Adelaide could only try to find a breach from Channing. But Channing smiled, "Adelaide, you can't forget our love because of money."
At this time, Antonio burst in from the crowd. He kicked Channing away, making no effort to repress his fury, "She and her baby are all mine. Stop talking nonsense, or you will be sorry." Hearing this, Channing was nervous and shocked. The aura of Antonio scared him. He looked up at the woman in the crowd, gritted his teeth, and insisted, "Adelaide's child is mine." Antonio clenched his fists. Before he could beat Channing, he heard Channing shout bravely, "Antonio, even if you beat me to death, you can't deny that Adelaide's child is mine."
The two handsome men fought for a woman and quarreled fiercely. Master Antonio even threatened Channing not to touch Adelaide. This kind of thing was rare in TV dramas, let alone it was the famous Master Antonio's wife who was thought to flirt with another man.
It would definitely be the headline. The reporters kept taking pictures.
"Get lost! Stop shooting."
Antonio was extremely angry now. How could these reporters dare to continue to shoot? They hastily turned their cameras off and were afraid that Master Antonio would smash them later. "Antonio, you are afraid? You are also afraid of losing face? If you're afraid, give me back my Adelaide!"
Every word of Channing's angered Antonio.
He clenched his fists and then loosened them.
"Antonio, Adelaide and the child in her belly are both mine." Channing seemed really not afraid of death as he continued to anger Antonio.
Antonio narrowed his eyes. Even the people around him couldn't help but shiver. He was really angry.
"Very good. You are not afraid of death this time." Antonio pointed at him and said word by word, his face becoming gloomier. Then, he beckoned a group of people, "Break his legs."
"Yes."
With obscure origins, these men all were wearing black suits and black leather shoes. They really looked like gangsters.
Channing shrank his neck. Just as he wanted to beg for mercy, Clarissa in the crowd raised the document in her hand. Channing gritted his teeth and thought to himself that anyway he was going to die. He could not let go of Adelaide.
"I'm not afraid, Antonio. She's carrying my baby. It's mine!"
Antonio didn't expect Channing to be so brave today. Antonio kicked him several times before leaving. He grabbed Adelaide and left.
"Antonio, I don't know why he's here."
Adelaide's hand was red with his grabbing. But she didn't care about that right now.
Antonio gritted his teeth and asked, "Why didn't you wait for me in the same place?" Before he left, he had told her not to run around. But when he came back, he saw the corner not far away surrounded by people. But Adelaide, who should have stayed here, was gone.
He almost thought Adelaide had been abducted. If he hadn't heard the reporters mention his name, he would have left the hall.
"I..." Adelaide did not know what to explain. She was like a child who had done something wrong, and lowered her head to be reprimanded.
Back in the car, Antonio did not say a word, his face darkened. Adelaide tried to explain several times. But he just glared at her. Then, she did not dare to speak.
When they got home, he still grabbed her back to the room without saying a word.
Antonio couldn't suppress his anger anymore. He ruthlessly pressed Adelaide on the bed. Before she could react, he roughly kissed her on her lips.
Adelaide could only utter a murmur.
He seemed not to vent his spleen, ruthlessly bit on her lips with sharp teeth. The kiss was unlike the playful one last night. This time, Antonio really bit through her lips.
It was only when Antonio noticed that her mouth was bleeding that he left her lips.
"Don't you like I kiss you? Come on!" he said angrily.
"I... I didn't! Antonio, I really don't know why Channing was here and why he said those words. Antonio, please believe me. The baby is really yours."
Adelaide ignored the pain on her lips. She was really afraid that Antonio would listen to Channing's words and mention the abortion again.
She took Antonio's hand while pleading bitterly.
The blood on her lips flowed out again. Antonio quickly kissed her again and ruthlessly sucked the blood from her lips into his mouth. He cupped her face in his hands and kissed her and slowly left her lips afte a long time.
Then, Adelaide was in a stupor, and Antonio warned her fiercely, "Adelaide, you and your child can only be mine in this life! Otherwise, I will make you miserable!"
Hearing these words, Adelaide was scared and widened her eyes. She nodded without any hesitation.
Getting her affirmative answer, Antonio left the room in pleasure.
After coming to the study, Antonio lay on the armchair. He was upset and lit a cigarette. His eyes were cold and filled with anger.
In accordance with his understanding of Channing, this person did not have the guts to do this.
The cigarette gradually burned out. Until he felt hot, Antonio hurriedly threw the cigarette into the ashtray.
Afterwards, he took out his cell phone and dialed the familiar phone number.
"Mr. Antonio, what can I do for you?"
Listening to the voice coming from the other end of the phone, Antonio nodded. He said in a cold voice, "Well, help me find out why Channing dared to come to the banquet today to make trouble." "Okay, Mr. Antonio."
The person Antonio called was his secretary.
He thought for a moment, "Also, figure out who found the reporters who attended the banquet tonight. I don't want to see any news about me and Adelaide and that man tonight in the news tomorrow or even later."
"Okay."
With a beeping sound, Antonio hung up.
The study was quiet once again.
