“Did you listen? Why do I get the feeling that you expected this.” The man still didn’t look at her, just a light smile, “You’ve been able to handle every step of grandpa’s life, now what’s there to worry about?”
“…”
The woman blinked in confusion, “What did you say? Why do I not understand at all?”
Then, she muttered in a small voice, “If I were as predictable as you say I am, none of this would have happened by now.”
The words just fell, the man’s eyes narrowed, a foot on the brakes.
The car was driving in the middle of the road, with cars coming and going.
“Ah!”
A cold stop, the car behind almost rear-ended, Phoebe Barnes subconsciously screamed, almost scared out of his mind.
Snapping her head around to look at him, startled, “You, what are you doing?”
Did she say the wrong thing again?
Why is he angry again?
She already felt the coldness seeping out of the man’s body, and her heart suddenly constricted a little, gulping silently.
Kemp Ross gripped the steering wheel tightly, looked ahead briefly for a few seconds, slowly looked sideways at her, eyes dark as ink, cold and compelling, “So … everything going on right now is something you didn’t originally want to happen? Is it hindering you or holding you back? Phoebe Barnes, why don’t you tell me what you were going to do, and maybe … I can get this all back in place.”
The car was blocked in the middle of the road, and the sound of honking and yelling from behind came through the glass.
The man looked at her indifferently and deeply as if he hadn’t heard.
Phoebe Barnes, on the other hand, was stunned by his words and her face changed and changed.
“Why would you … think that?”
The man sneered, “Amnesia? You said so yourself.”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes moved her eyes, recalling a casual remark she just made, then pulled her lips into a smile, lowered her eyes, and her voice became very soft, “I mean … if I was really that predictable, I definitely wouldn’t have gone to that speech in college …”
Then you won’t see him, you won’t fall in love with him, you won’t have anything to do with him because of his grandfather, and you won’t care about what’s happening in front of you.
The man frowned, obviously missing some of her words, “What do you mean?”
He certainly won’t remember.
Phoebe Barnes adjusted her breathing, steadied her emotions, and turned her clear eyes to cast into his gaze, “I don’t think you’ll remember that you were invited to a motivational speech at the drama school that year, and I was in the audience.”
The company is also one of the many nymphomaniacs, he did not say a few words throughout, she is naturally not fascinated by his so-called connotation, she is also a superficial person, looking at his skin.
Existence is like a fan girl chasing idols in general, afterwards she specifically googled some of his information, although much less, but also happened to learn the news of his grandfather’s disease species.
She really didn’t think they would meet again, although the shadow of him was always in her head, but it didn’t affect her life.
It wasn’t until much later that she had a medical checkup at the hospital and ran into him at the door of her building not long after.
Four eyes met, and she clearly saw her own shadow in those good-looking and deep eyes.
At that moment, it was really heartwarming.
Then, she resolutely made a deal with him.
Kemp Ross didn’t bother to remember, and indeed didn’t, but he narrowed his eyes somewhat playfully and tilted his lips, “Phoebe Barnes, don’t tell me that you fell in love with me at first sight on that occasion and then started to calculate everything that followed.”
Phoebe Barnes smiled, the tone was not just self-deprecating or sarcastic, “That time I guess many girls fell in love with you at first sight, who made you look better than the debut star? As for the reckoning behind everything … it is clear that you came to me first, how can I say that I reckoned?”
The man’s eyes did not see ripples, but dark look not the bottom, he quietly looked at the woman, the tone is very casual asked, “so … you to get married as a condition of the reason, just because like me or … like my face ?”
“Or what?” Phoebe Barnes blinked and looked at him somewhat innocently, “If you covet your family’s money? I donated a kidney, how much money do you want that you won’t give me? If you were greedy for fame and fortune? I could have asked you for it then too, and you wouldn’t have said no.”
“You know I won’t like you and choose to marry me, don’t you feel aggrieved?”
Phoebe Barnes looked at him quite seriously thought for a few seconds, and then nodded his little head, glutinous open, “is quite aggravating, if I mix a few years in the entertainment industry, with my beauty can not find you so rich can also find a person like me married, married to you, every day to bear your cold eyes taunting not to mention, also have to deal with your stepmother and sister, and also to deal with your stepmother and sister. Also be afraid of being exposed to your marriage … can be heartbreaking.”
The woman’s soft voice, even the tone of the complaint is like a petulant, not much momentum, but a few points of pity.
The man seemed to let her complain, and did not get angry, and even some funny hooked up lips, “It seems that you have a lot of aggression in your heart, these two years did not make a neurosis, but is quite lucky.”
The little woman heaved her head, “No!”
“…”
The man glanced at her, a trace of indescribable hidden complexity flashed under his eyes, and did not say anything, restarted the car and left.
Phoebe Barnes could not guess his mind, and did not know if he was still angry, nestled in the seat, peeking at him, cautiously spoke, “I have confessed all my long hidden thoughts to you, in the future … you, you can no longer suspect me with other men how What about it.”
Kemp Ross dropped his eyelids and drove smoothly, converging the darkness under his eyes, chewing on her words with a coldness, mocking lightly, “Phoebe Barnes, how much does it matter, you like a bag, you will always carry only that one? How much better looking people showbiz than me … don’t tell me that you like my insides again now.”
“That’s right.”
“…”
She just feels that she can’t leave him now, even if what is in front of her is just an illusion, unless this illusion also breaks.
As we were talking, the cell phone on the man vibrated.
Kemp Ross switched to a one-handed grip on the steering wheel and took out his cell phone to answer, “Hello.”
Wind Rong’s scattered tones with a laugh came out, “I heard you became a father, buddy to report a happy.”
Where is the good news, clearly is the gloating frame.
Kemp Ross faintly spat out four words, “Not enough sincerity.”
Wind Rong twitched over there, swept a glance around the drinkers, and smiled gently, “Want sincerity, come here now.”
“No go!”
Wind Rong then hung up the phone directly.
Two seconds later, the cell phone on Phoebe Barnes rang.
She glanced down at the screen, “Wind Rong’s.”
Kemp Ross, “…”
Phoebe Barnes gave him a look and pressed answer, “Wind Rong.”
I don’t know what was said there, but the woman turned her head to look at the man again and gave a stiff smile, “I’m with him in one piece.”
