“Dolly!” the shout made Dolly’s whole body freeze.
“What, don’t you remember me?” Vincent asked as he ran up to her.
It shouldn’t be that bad, right? How long has it been since we separated? The man looked seriously at the woman in front of him, expecting her reaction.
“I remember, it’s just that you, why are you here all of a sudden?” Dolly asked softly.
“I came to look for you.” Vincent replied with a simple smile.
Are you kidding me? What was he doing here looking for her? Vaguely, Dolly felt a little uneasy in her heart.
“You don’t welcome me?” Vincent asked.
Not unwelcome, she was afraid that the man in front of her was deliberately looking for a fight!
Nowadays, in this society, some people look simple and kind, but in reality they are as cruel and ruthless as a wolf!
Jayden and Stanley’s persistence had already chilled her a bit, and she didn’t want the man in front of her to make any more mistakes.
“You’re here, is there something wrong?” Dolly asked directly.
Her tone, very nonchalant, a normal person can hear that she does not welcome this man’s arrival.
“I’m going to settle here from now on.” Vincent replied with a smile.
Suddenly, Dolly’s head went blank as if she had been hit by a bolt from the blue.
“Is that so?” She muttered.
At this moment, she didn’t know what she should say to him. Happy? She couldn’t really be happy, sad? Again, it seemed too inhumane.
“Today is your first day here, let me treat you to dinner.” Dolly continued to speak.
Anyhow, she should also do her part as a landlord, otherwise she would look like a petty person.
“Sure.” Vincent immediately replied, he could not wait!
The two went straight to a nearby restaurant and had a simple meal before Dolly said goodbye to him.
In her idea, there are some people that should be kept at an early distance.
The two of them went to a nearby restaurant and had a simple meal.
“Stanley, your mom wants you home for dinner tonight.” Aston shouted from the living room.
“I’m not going.” Stanley replied directly.
“You have to go back tonight, do you have a conscience or not? Your mother has been in the hospital for so long and you haven’t even visited her, you’re her own son at least! You just wait and see, one day if something really happens to her old man, you won’t even have time to regret it!”
“Pah!” With that, Aston slammed the door and left.
“Stanley, you really should go home and see your aunt.” Priya said.
Stanley looked up at the sky outside, and there was a hint of resentment and some intolerance in his eyes.
Yes, it had been so long since he returned home, and he hadn’t returned home until now, wasn’t it too heartless?
Forget it, it’s better to make a trip back, there is no loss to yourself.
…
“Son, you’re back, mom missed you to death.” The woman smiled as she greeted.
“Hmm.” Stanley replied indifferently.
From a distance, it looked as if the living room was bustling with activity.
What, so many people all of a sudden? He looked around, a little surprised.
“Mom’s friends are here, and I stopped by to have a meal with them here.” The woman hurriedly explained.
The woman explained, “Is that really all?” Stanley’s eyes had a hint of doubt.
“Come on, you’re just in time, Auntie just made dinner.” With that, Mrs. Davidson dragged him straight into the dining room.
“Let me introduce to you, this is my son, Stanley.”
Stanley’s father, sitting next to him, looked at his son in front of him with a majestic look and a somewhat serious expression, probably blaming him for not coming home for so long!
“Let’s eat.” Said Stanley, and sat down.
Instantly, the anger was awkward.
Because not only did he not greet his father, he also did not greet the aunt and the aunt’s daughter next to him.
It was actually a blind date in disguise, but Stanley wasn’t stupid!
“Come and eat, Serena, this is your favorite sweet and sour pork, here, try it.” Mrs. Davidson hurriedly chucked a piece of meat to the young girl next to her.
“Thank you, auntie.”
“What are you thanking me for? We’re all on the same team.” She took a look at Stanley next to her and whispered.
At once, the young girl’s face was flushed, a little shy.
“After dinner later ah, let Stanley take you out for more walks.”
“I still have things to do, I have to leave after dinner.” Stanley refused directly, the atmosphere became more awkward.
“Your business, let’s put it aside for a while, people Serena is not easy to come to our home, you take her around more.” Mrs. Davidson murmured.
“Isn’t there a housekeeper? The housekeeper knows more than I do.” He replied as he plucked rice from his bowl.
“It’s all right, auntie, Stanley is rather busy, then I’ll leave him alone, I’ll just turn around by myself.” The young girl said immediately.
Mrs. Davidson wanted to say something else, but felt a little embarrassed.
The meal was very unpleasant, mainly because Stanley denied everything his mother said. He didn’t like being arranged by the family, and naturally he didn’t like the choice of wife they had arranged for him.
In fact, that Serena, too, was just a victim of the family union.
“Leon, how is Anastasia? Better?” Brayden asked from the couch.
“Nothing, what else can happen to her, just a bump.” Leon replied slowly.
That woman last night after drunkenness, touching the dark to go to the bathroom, the result of an accidental fall directly in the low sound, if not Leon arrived in time, it is estimated that at this time she is still screaming in pain.
“Usually you go to care more about her, after all, people are a girl.”
“I don’t care enough about her? Brother, she is the one who torments me every day, okay?” Leon replied unconvincingly.
In recent times, Anastasia has been deliberately making things difficult for him, which makes him a little tired.
“Isn’t that how women are? She’s just sucking up your attention.” Is that so? Well, she could have said so!
“Mr. Kirkland, here’s the file!” The assistant said as she walked in.
“Put it there.” Brayden didn’t look up and answered directly.
“Women, they are fickle things.” Leon muttered.
“Go ahead, go see her at the hospital and take me to say hello, I won’t go over there, I’ve been busy lately.” Brayden said.
Hearing these words, Leon immediately turned around and left the office.
“Where is big brother? Why didn’t you come to see me?” The woman on the hospital bed asked directly.
“Big brother is busy and asked me to say hello to you.” Leon replied as he placed the fruit on the table.
“How could he do that? I’ve fallen like this, and he’s still busy working.” Anastasia beamed and said in a resigned manner.
“Come on you, how did you fall? Is it a broken arm? Or a broken leg?” Leon asked nonchalantly.
