There was silence in the room. After a long time, Patrick Kearney, who was drenched in cold sweat, bowed slightly and walked out with a pale face.
"Master." Britney, who sat obediently in the chair, did not say a word from beginning to end. She even carefully stretched out her hand and tugged at the corner of Adriaan's clothes with her fingertips.
Adriaan no longer maintained such a cold expression. He turned his head and gave her a smile. He gently pinched her smooth cheek. "I told you to be patient with people and things, so you should be patient with people and things. I told you to go to college for advanced studies, so you should go to college for advanced studies. You are my little pet, Bubu. I won't let anyone hurt you outside the rules."
Britney's eyes curved. She grabbed his big hand and leaned her face on his palm. He looked at her with a smile and gently rubbed against her, like a puppy that needed its owner's caress.
"Well, that's it for the time being. I'll leave first." Stroking the little pet's soft hair, Adriaan said and was about to leave.
There was a look of disappointment in Britney's eyes. She hurriedly grabbed his hand and pleaded, "Master."
"I really can't, Bubu. I have a date tonight." Adriaan shook his head.
"Please, Master. My master." Britney refused to let go. Her tearful appearance made her look particularly pitiful, as if she had been abandoned.
Seeing her like this, Adriaan could only sigh. "All right, all right, then …"
He raised his hand to look at the time. "… It's almost over. I'll wait for you outside."
* * *
With a click, the limousine door was opened. With a fragrant breeze, a petite and strong figure immediately threw herself into Adriaan's arms. Then, she showered him with kisses. "I love you, Master. I love you, I love you …"
"Ha, Bubu, you're really passionate." Adriaan laughed. At the same time, the limousine began to slowly drive out of the parking lot.
"Because I love you, Master. I love you so much. I will always be your little pet." Brani's eyes glittered with excitement. She rode on his thigh and kissed his mouth even more passionately and passionately. What Adrian had done for her was enough for her to do so.
After venting her emotions, Britney straightened her body and looked at Adriaan shyly and boldly. Suddenly, she jumped off his body and knelt before him. She unbuckled the belt around her waist and buried her head in it.
Adriaan sucked in a breath of cold air. The limousine had just left the entrance, and the fans who were stopped on both sides of the road started shouting. Many of them were shouting Britney's name.
"Bubu, there are fans outside calling you …" Feeling the nimble tongue, Adriaan took a deep breath and said. He wasn't worried at all. The film was specially processed. Even if it was pasted on with a flash, it might not be able to capture the scene in the limousine, not to mention that it was so far away.
Unexpectedly, Britney chuckled. She pressed the button on the door and rolled down the window. Then, she stretched her hand out from the gap and waved it. Suddenly, the fans who had yet to leave burst into loud cheers and shouted Britney's name. The little pet's body trembled slightly. It was obvious that she was excited.
Adriaan couldn't help but laugh and shake his head. He enjoyed Britney's service and took out his phone to make a call.
"Nada? Sorry, I can't accompany you tonight. Something came up. " After the call went through, he spoke to the person on the other end of the line. At the same time, he sucked in a deep breath because of the sudden force below.
Natalie obviously knew what he was doing. Her breathing became heavy for a moment, but she eventually said in a calm tone, "Got it."
Adriaan hung up the phone in satisfaction. He knocked on the door separating the limousine and the driver's seat, asking the driver to drive around New York. Then, he began to enjoy Britney's service wholeheartedly.
The next day, before nine o 'clock, MTV reported that the two supervisors from the planning department and marketing department, who were responsible for the plan, would be fired. Apart from that, a few people who were responsible for preparing the costumes and supervising the ceremony would also be fired. The guy who cut the shoelaces would not be able to work in this industry anymore. Furthermore, the call was from MTV's CEO, Tom Freston.
In fact, he had called last night, but Adriaan had turned off his phone after talking to Natalie in the limousine. He only turned it back on after he brought Britney back to his luxurious apartment in Manhattan. Then, Freston, who had been waiting, finally got in touch with him. No matter how popular MTV was, it was nothing compared to AC Media.
Of course, Adriaan wasn't as rude to Freston as he was to Canney. After all, their identities were different. However, it was definitely not good. Freston could tell that, so he didn't say much and hung up after learning about the situation. The next person to call was Lei Shidong.
"You really don't understand the elderly at all. Eide, I'm about to go to bed." Lei Shidong complained as soon as he spoke, even though he knew that Adriaan could hear the band playing.
"I'm sorry to disturb you, Sam. I'm just very dissatisfied." Adriaan said with a smile. He was more polite to him than to Freston. "You know, I always follow the rules. If others follow the rules, too."
Then, he repeated what he had said to Canney and Freston. At the end, he added, "Frankly speaking, Sam, it's time for MTV to make some adjustments. The winter of the recording industry is coming, and there will be a lot of changes. This is definitely not an alarmist talk. I don't want it to affect our cooperation when the time comes."
This was not a threat. It was just a reminder that needed to be exchanged. Therefore, Lei Shidong didn't say too much. He just said, "You'll be satisfied, Eide."
So, the result was basically acceptable the next day. The only thing was that, because of the impact, the two department heads couldn't fire them immediately. Of course, they didn't know about it. So, they needed some time. Adriaan agreed.
In fact, he didn't really take it to heart. The main reason why he did this was to tell some people that Britney was a woman that he valued very much. It didn't matter if it was within the rules. As a director, he allowed the reporters to write some gossip, but he would be very sorry if they went a little beyond the rules.
Adrian's goal was achieved. After all, it was big news that MTV fired two department heads in a short period of time. Although the parties involved were very low-key and did not mention much, and the outside world did not know much about the specific situation, the whole thing quickly spread within the music industry. Some people sighed. What kind of charm did Britney have to make one of the leaders of AC Media go to such lengths? Some people were jealous. How could that brainless woman attract Adriaan? Some people suddenly realized why Xiao Tiantian could create so many miracles. She had a legendary figure supporting her from behind.
Of course, from the beginning to the end, Adriaan had never mentioned his relationship with Britney. So, just like Miracle Girl, even if everyone knew what was going on, they couldn't say it out loud. But one thing was for sure. Director Miracle had a lot of ideas in music. As long as one could get his support, becoming a popular singer was as easy as becoming a popular movie star. Maybe the legendary figure could now replace the title of "Director Miracle"?
Putting aside the consequences of this incident, since he was in New York, he had to visit his uncle's house. Even if he scolded him badly, it would be the same. Well, it was a little exaggerated, but his uncle's words were sharper than usual. As for the reason, of course, it was because of the media reports about Kate and Lily.
His uncle and aunt both knew about them. Although his uncle had some complaints about Lily being unmarried, he liked the little girl very much. Lily also liked her grandparents. Now that it was exposed by the media, Adriaan seemed to have no intention of giving Kate and Lily their identities. It was inevitable that his uncle would be unhappy.
After the scolding, his uncle sighed and comforted Adriaan. After all, he knew that he already had five daughters. Deva and Juliet had also come to New York to meet them. His uncle was very clear about Adriaan's current situation. It was best not to change his mind easily.
"But you can't go on like this forever." His uncle said to Adriaan seriously.
"Yes, I know. I... It's not that I don't want to admit Lily. She is my woman, until the day I die." Adriaan wanted to say that he didn't plan to get married, but he held it back. He didn't want to continue to provoke his uncle, even if Victor's marriage was imminent.
"Well, this is your business. It's young people's business. I can only say my opinion at most. It's up to you to decide what to do." His uncle let out a rare "weak" sigh.
"Thank you for your understanding, uncle." Adriaan stood up with a smile. "Then I'll go back to Los Angeles first. I still have things to deal with there."
"Wait." His uncle suddenly stopped him, and there was a flash of light in his eyes. "Your aunt and I are going to Canada for vacation tomorrow. If you need anything, you can go there to find me. Besides... it's better to stay in Los Angeles for now."
Adriaan didn't understand why his uncle would say this. He just nodded politely to show that he understood. However, after walking out of the apartment, he immediately understood and could not help but raise his eyebrows. Interesting, could it be … He raised his head. Although he was in Manhattan, he still could not see the two buildings in the middle of the concrete jungle.
"Krau, it's me. What happened recently? No, no, no, I'm talking about your family situation. Don't tell me that Godfather has given up on forcing you... Speaking of which, it seems that I haven't been to Godfather's house for a while... Asking you to spend more time with them at home? That's a good thing. Then I'll take the time to accompany them. " Adriaan called Claude in the car while looking at the date in his hand. It was already close at hand.
A playful smile emerged from the corner of his mouth. It seemed that some things were really possible...

After the electronic alarm clock at the bedside was set to 7: 46, Adriaan woke up. He looked at the ceiling in a daze. It seemed that he had woken up a little early today. But very quickly, he came to his senses. He forced himself up and looked around. Alexander's smooth back was leaning against him, and Miranda was nestled in his arms. Looking down from below, he could see a pair of soft breasts that were slightly deformed.
After quietly getting out of bed, Adriaan deliberately put on a scarf and went to the bathroom in another room to wash up. This was not his mansion in Beverly Hills. It was a house that Alexander bought in Los Angeles. Miranda lived with her — temporarily. With the end of the training, she had officially confirmed that she would participate in Victoria's Secret's runway show in the second half of the year. It would not be long before she could buy her own house, but Adriaan still hoped that she could live here.
After Eide washed up and returned to the bedroom, Alexander also got up with fluffy hair and sleepy eyes. Miranda was still a little sleepy. She usually consumed a lot of energy.
"Why are you up so early today?" Alexander smiled and hugged Adriaan and kissed him.
"I woke up naturally." Adriaan smiled and kissed back. "What do you want for breakfast?"
"Milk, bread, and fried eggs. You made them," Alexander said after thinking for a while.
"Very good, but do you want the milk in a box or on a stick?" Adriaan asked seriously.
"Whatever, as long as you can squeeze it out." Alexander made a face and then walked to the bathroom.
"By the way, Elle." Adriaan suddenly called out to her. "Is there a computer in the study and connected to the Internet?"
"Of course, why?" Alexander was puzzled.
"I have an important email that I need to receive." Adriaan explained. "If it's taken care of, you don't have to go to the company today. You can stay here and accompany the two of you."
"Really?" The girl blinked her eyes and smiled charmingly. "Then it's settled."
"It's a deal," Adriaan said calmly.
He went to the study, turned on the computer, connected to the Internet, and looked at the time. Only then did Adriaan go to the kitchen to busy himself. The specific time should be between 8 and 9, so there was no hurry.
After breakfast was ready, Miranda also got up. She was wearing a shirt and underwear with a lazy aura. Coupled with her moisturized body, she had a different kind of charm.
"Ed's fried eggs are really delicious," she said with a smile as she tasted the eggs.
"Indeed, I don't know what ingredients are used to fry it." Alexander glanced at the space between his legs. "I was going to squeeze some other milk, but it seems that I can't."
Although Miranda blushed, she also giggled. Her smile was as charming as Alexander's.
"Don't worry, there will be a chance, I promise." Standing by the table, Adriaan, who was drinking coffee and reading the newspaper, raised his eyebrows.
Then he noticed the time again. After finishing his coffee, he went out of the dining room and went upstairs to the study.
"The email hasn't come yet?" After he and Miranda packed up their things downstairs, Alexander also followed them to the study.
"Not yet." Adriaan replied very calmly, but his eyebrows were still slightly furrowed. It was already 8: 50. Why was there no news from the major websites? Or was it because of the butterfly effect that caused the time to change?
At this moment, when he refreshed a blog about New York scenery, the long-awaited photo finally appeared. Although it was blurry, for safety's sake, he had to confirm it. After a quick glance at the short blog post, Adriaan suddenly picked up his phone and dialed as he walked downstairs.
"Yini? It's me. Call CNN immediately. I found out on the Internet that something big happened in Manhattan, New York. The twin towers of the World Trade Center seem to have been attacked. Ask CNN to send the nearest interview car there immediately! "Adriaan quickly went to the living room, turned on the TV, and adjusted to the CNN channel.
Two minutes after ending the call with Ivanka, CNN's lengthy news about Texas was finally cut off. "The following is urgent news. At about 8: 50 this morning, the north tower of the World Trade Center is suspected to have been attacked by a missile..."
Missile attack? Adriaan's forehead couldn't help but jump, but it was no longer important at this moment. When one of the twin towers appeared on the screen with thick smoke, Adriaan couldn't help but take a deep breath. It finally came.
"God, what happened?" Alexander, who followed him downstairs, and Miranda, who came out of the kitchen, exclaimed together.
"I don't know, but something must have happened, and it's something big." Adriaan shook his head, and then his phone rang.
"Eide, have you seen the news? The World Trade Center was attacked! "Claude's strange and surprised tone came from the other side of the phone.
"Yes, I saw it, but I don't think it was a missile attack." Adriaan maintained a calm tone. "There is news on the Internet that a plane hit the north tower of the World Trade Center... Damn! Look! Turn on the TV, another plane! The south tower! "
Alexander and Miranda, who were watching the TV nervously, also exclaimed. The CNN camera happened to be focused on the two towers of the World Trade Center, and it clearly captured a plane hitting the north tower. Just like the north tower, it suddenly burst into flames. The scene was noisy, and sirens blared.
"Damn!" After a long while, Claude's heavy voice came from the other side of the phone. He also turned on the TV. "I hope... Uncle Anderson is not there, right?"
"No!" Adriaan had an indescribable feeling in his heart. "He should be on vacation in Canada with Aunt Marsha. Victor also took his fiancée there the day before. They will be fine."
"That's good." Claude sounded relieved, but then he became hesitant. "Eide... do you think..."
"Don't talk so much now, Krau." Adriaan interrupted his thoughts. "We have a lot of things to do today. Let CNN follow up on the report. I think this may be a terrorist attack. It must not only be the World Trade Center, but other places as well. The government should also come up with countermeasures immediately, and then consider the possible consequences if the World Trade Center collapses..."
