All the way there, Elena Bush was extraordinarily enthusiastic, giving Blanche Rodriguez a bad feeling.
Before she reached the villa door she squeezed her palms, “Sir Lewis, why don’t you go with Mr Brown, I’ll go to the hotel by myself. I’m an outsider, and it’s not a good idea to disturb your reunion.”
When Kent heard this, he immediately became reluctant, “How can I trust you to stay in a hotel alone? Besides, hotels are so dangerous nowadays that people can appear at any time to take a lone woman by force!”
Kent’s words were true, there had been a few news stories just a few days before, but ……
Blanche Rodriguez held her forehead, “It was just a normal hotel, I could have picked the security measures to be better ……”
“Blanche Rodriguez, are you being disagreeable?” Kent said, not forgetting to look over at Elena Bush.
Elena Bush immediately nodded her head in a matching manner, her little face showing a touch of innocence.
Blanche Rodriguez had to throw her hands up in surrender, “Sorry, it’s my fault, okay?”
As soon as the words left his mouth, the car had pulled up steadily in front of the villa.
Mia came out to greet them, Logan Brown was the last to get out, carrying the things Elena Bush and Kent had gone shopping for earlier.
Mia was followed by a little one who rushed over in a hurry and fell into her arms immediately afterwards.
“Mummy, where have you been, Harvey can’t find you anywhere and you haven’t answered the phone!” Harvey pressed against her, his complaints crackling like firecrackers.
Elena Bush didn’t even have time to answer and felt her pockets before she remembered that maybe there had been too much stuff on the way back and her phone had just been left in her handbag.
“I’m sorry ……”
She hastily picked him up and coaxed, “Mummy bought you a present to apologise oh and Uncle did too.”
“Uncle?”
Harvey heard the name for the first time and looked at her with some curiosity cocked wide.
“Yo!” Kent suddenly bent down and came up to him, “You’re Harvey, right?”
Harvey looked startled at the sudden approach and reacted before patting his chest and looking at him curiously, “You’re my uncle?”
“Yeah.”
Kent nodded and opened his arms to him and smiled, “Does Harvey want a hug from his uncle?”
“Yes!”
Harvey threw himself into his arms without hesitation.
Kent took it quickly, cupping a tiny body in his hands and the smell of milk between his nostrils.
“Uncle ……” Harvey said curiously, tugging at his face, “How come I haven’t seen you before.”
“Guess?”
“I’m not guessing.” Harvey wasn’t stupid and immediately said, “Even if I asked you’d have to say that grown-ups don’t understand even if they know, just like grandpa.”
“Grandpa?” Kent’s face turned slightly ugly.
“Uncle, get in the house, Daddy and Mummy are inside!” Harvey saw him suddenly freeze and couldn’t help but pat him on the cheek again to pull him back to his senses.
Kent immediately nodded, “Ah, okay.”
Harvey became friends with Kent in no time at all, and the two of them went back to their rooms with their consoles in their hands, shouting about dueling.
It was the first time Blanche Rodriguez had ever seen Kent acting like a child.
For so many years, the Kent she knew seemed to have no desire and never acted with any semblance of purpose, she could not see anything expected in his eyes ……
“Miss Rodriguez, Miss Rodriguez?”
Blanche Rodriguez snapped back immediately,”Sorry, I didn’t hear you earlier.”
“That’s okay.” Elena Bush placed the refreshments in front of her.
She looked at her soft face and couldn’t help but curl her lips, “Miss Rodriguez, the one who has been by Kent’s side all these years?”
“Stayed with …… who stayed with him!” Blanche Rodriguez subconsciously panicked and hurriedly said, “It’s just my job, I’m an assistant and I’m supposed to stay by Mr. Lewis’ side.”
“And what about in private?”
Blanche Rodriguez looked terrified, “Madame Brown!”
“You can just call me Elena, and I’ll call you Blanche directly.”
Blanche Rodriguez settled down, “Elena, I think you may have misunderstood something, Mr Lewis he …… already has someone he likes.”
“How can that be!” Elena Bush blurted out, a look of disbelief on her face.
A look like the one Kent had when he mentioned her to her wasn’t going to lie, she didn’t think Kent would like anyone else.
Blanche Rodriguez smiled a little bitterly, “You’ve been separated from him for so many years, you don’t know a lot of things.”
“But I wouldn’t even get his feelings wrong.” Elena Bush replied firmly, “Blanche Rodriguez, it seems to me that there should be some misunderstanding between you, so I don’t really want that misunderstanding to continue ……”
Sometimes, just a misunderstanding is enough to make two people who love each other just miss out.
Blanche Rodriguez suddenly fell silent and didn’t answer for a long time.
Elena Bush picked up her tea and took a sip, “Actually …… Blanche Rodriguez, instead of you making wild guesses yourself, it would be better to ask.”
“Why are you telling me this?” Blanche Rodriguez suddenly looked at her with a puzzled expression.
“There’s no such thing as why.” She stroked her hair and her starry eyes fell on the cup of tea in her hand, “Kent has carried so much for the first half of his life, and now that he’s finally living again, I naturally want him to be well.”
She also wanted him to be happy ……
Blanche Rodriguez’s eyes twinkled, “I want him to be happy too, but his happiness, after all, is not me.”
“What nonsense!” Elena Bush pressed a little, “Kent just told me what he wanted, I don’t believe he would lie to me. All in all, just say what you have between you, don’t hide it!”
“I ……”
Blanche Rodriguez hurriedly shook her head as if to escape, “I can’t, don’t you dare make me ……”
After saying that, she quickly got up and said, “I’m tired, I’ll go back to rest first.”
The evasive look was so obvious that Elena Bush stared at it for a while, finally shaking her head helplessly and saying, “I’ll ask Mia to show you to your room.”
“Well, please.” Blanche Rodriguez dropped the sentence and finally fled out of her sight, leaving her with no time to say anything at all.
