Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 44 Audition for Leading Role
"Dad, what did you hear about me?" Nicholas looked at Adeline and gently said, "Adeline, you're now a Lockwood. Being a Lockwood doesn't only mean that you have to be careful of your demeanor in public, but you're also being protected by our family. You need to let us know if you've been bullied or mistreated in any way. Don't keep it to yourself. Otherwise, the other people will just think that the Lockwood family is weak." "Dad, I'm back in one piece, didn't I? I know who it was behind my abduction, but I don't have any evidence to prove it, and it would be a hassle to look for it. So, why don't we just let it go this once? I don't think she's going to make trouble anytime soon, anyway." Adeline didn't want to trouble the Lockwood family only to handle such a little inconvenience. Since the media didn't report about it, she assumed that Adrian must have kept the situation on the down-low. Initially, Nicholas didn't have much thought about Adeline as his daugh
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 45 Embarrassed Adeline
"So what if they've heard me?" Chloe was unbothered. Adeline leaned closer to Chloe's ear and whispered, "Imagine if they got mad at you and chased you down the streets. They might even throw things at you." Chloe trembled just at the thought of it. She eyed the people in front of them and smiled wryly, "Well then, forget what I just said. I don't want to be torn into pieces." Adeline grinned at her at that, "Let's go. If we stay out here any longer, we aren't going to make it in." Then, they wiggled their way through the crowd and strode up to the front desk. "Hello, I'm here to hand in my resume," Adeline said. "Okay, just leave it here," the receptionist glanced at Adeline and pointed to the tray on the desk. After handing in their resumes, they waited in a lounge for their name to be called out for the audition. The lounge was filled with many other girls, all waiting for their turn to audition. Some of the girls began to touch up their
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 46 Something on My Face?
Adrian was looking out from the transparent elevator wall when he heard Lydia's words. He seemed deep in a trance, but he suddenly mumbled with a gentle look on his face, "I guess that's a good thing..." At that moment, Lydia was green with envy. She couldn't understand why Adeline—an ordinary girl—could catch his attention. Meanwhile, she couldn't even hold his hand even though she had been by Adrian's side for five years. On the other hand, Adeline and Chloe managed to make their way out of the building. Adeline was overwhelmed with the embarrassment she felt at the moment. She didn't expect Adrian to stand so close to her. Leaning against a tree, Chloe gasped for breath. "Adeline, what just happened? Why did we have to run?" Chloe had yet to figure out why they had run in the first place. Adeline rolled her eyes at Chloe, and said, "Chloe, are you still starstruck by Adrian? I could have died of embarrassment over what happened just now!" The cor
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 47 A Realistic Dream
Adeline's heavy eyelids struggled open, but the glare of the sunlight was making it difficult. Suddenly, her phone she put on the nightstand rang. Adeline reached her hand out and grabbed it. Fumbling, she placed it by her ear and answered gruffly, "Hello?" "Adeline, where are you?" Ronald's voice came from the other side of the phone. Adeline was wide awake instantly. She sat up from the bed and asked softly, "Dad, what's the matter? Why are you calling me so early?" There was a moment of silence before Ronald finally said, "Zoey's engagement party is today. You should come if you're free." "Alright, Dad. I'll be there later." "Okay, then. See you soon," the call ended quickly. Adeline stared at her phone in a blank daze and wondered if Ronald was worried that she might not show up for Zoey's engagement party. Then, all of a sudden, Adeline felt a cool breeze brushed against her back. She looked downwards at herself, and she could
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 48 Whoever Is Going to Be Your Girlfriend Is Really Blessed
Unexpectedly, Sandrino merely smiled and replied, "Adeline, I didn't think you would think of me that way." Adeline thought that he would be angered by her words, but he didn't. Instead, he found it amusing. Anyway, she had a greater concern. She had to find another way to discern if the man that appeared in her dreams every night was Sandrino. Adeline took a deep breath. Grabbing tightly onto the corners of her dress, she challenged, "Well, am I wrong?" Sandrino looked at her doll-like face, and, smiling wryly, he avoided the question, "We should go in." Adeline sighed lightly at that. She wondered if she had stepped over the line. Sandrino walked a few steps forward and then stopped abruptly. He turned to glance at Adeline and said, "I'll be leaving town for work tomorrow. I'll be gone for about a week." Adeline looked at him, confused. She didn't know what to make of the information Sandrino had just passed on. However, that would me
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 49 Engagement Party
Meanwhile, Zoey was hiding behind a bush nearby all the while, and she witnessed the exchanges between Sebastian, Adeline, and Ethan. She glared at Adeline with resentment, clenching her hand so tight that she crushed the twigs to pieces. She wanted to go and ask Sebastian why he still held Adeline in his heart, even though he was getting engaged with Zoey. She wanted to know why he just wouldn't see how much she loved him. Zoey thought that Adeline wasn't any better than him in any way! As she was deep in her thoughts, someone lightly patted her shoulder. She turned around and almost burst into tears when she saw who it was, "Mom, why does Sebastian still love Adeline? I've tried everything to get him to like me... I really hate feeling like this." Helen was heartbroken to see Zoey weeping in despair. She pulled Zoey into her arms and said, "Baby, don't cry! It doesn't matter if he still likes Adeline. You're the mother of his child! I'm sure Sebastian will eventuall
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 50 A Gift From Mom
The next morning, the Lockwoods' driver sent Adeline to Roland's company. Upon arriving, she stared at the imposing entrance and recalled the time when she and her parents would walk into the company hand in hand. Back then, she was the happiest and carefree girl on earth. As she entered the building, she walked straight towards the elevator customized only for the chairman's usage. The receptionist immediately came forward to stop her and asked with a smile, "Hello. May I know who you're looking for?" Adeline turned around, looked at the receptionist, and replied softly, "I'm looking for the chairman." "Sorry, but do you have an appointment? If you don't, you can't enter," The receptionist said. She was looking at Adeline with a hint of disdain in her eyes. "Appointment?" Adeline chuckled and continued, "Why do I need to make an appointment to come to my family's own company?" The receptionist sneered, "Miss, I've been working the front desk for almost tw
Marrying My Vegetative Husband Chapter 51 A Scheme
In the elevator, Adeline's phone rang. Adeline hesitated when she saw the unfamiliar number on the caller display. But she answered it eventually, "Hello?" "Hi, is this Miss Adeline Simpson?" A gentle voice came from the other end of the line. Adeline's brows furrowed slightly as she replied, "Yes, it is. May I ask who's calling?" "Hello, Miss Simpson. I'm Adrian Nolan's manager, Zane Koch. I have some things to discuss with you." Thinking that Adrian must have had his manager call her, she asked, "Oh, is Adrian looking for me?" There was a moment of silence before Zane answered, "He's not. But I do have some matters to discuss with you if you don't mind. Are you free to meet me somewhere?" Adeline had wanted to turn him down. However, she thought of how Adrian had helped her last time. Besides, she was curious about what Zane wanted to talk about. So, she decided to go. "Alright, sure. Where should we meet?" Adeline asked. Zane tol
