“Well, it’s pretty good.” She clutched the corner of her shirt and seemed a little nervous.
“You didn’t go see the old man the last time you were home?” Immediately after Brayden asked tentatively.
“Huh? Oh, that, no, I haven’t had a chance to check on Dad.” Aston hurriedly covered up, a little panicked that she hadn’t gone home at all, and that the so-called going home was just an excuse.
Why did he suddenly ask such a question? Aston took a sip of his coffee and tried to cut the tension in his heart.
“No wonder, the old man called me earlier and told me to take good care of you.” Brayden spoke slowly, without a ripple in his tone.
Who needs him to take care of her? Aston glanced at him and didn’t say anything. If he really wanted to, he should have agreed to go out with her.
“I know, my father mentioned it to me before, but, I’m fine now.” Aston answered deliberately.
“So where did you go the last time you left the country?”
Brayden’s voice did not sound emotional, which made Aston even more panicked, carefully measuring the person across the table, his heart was very uneasy, does he know what she did to Dolly last time she was abroad?
“Went to another country, just to have some fun and take a break.” Aston looked out the window with half-squinted eyes, his eyes a little bleak.
It seemed that she was still playing sloppy with herself, Brayden picked up a spoon, stirred the coffee in her cup and raised a curve at the corner of her mouth, “Which country did you go to?”
Aston looked at the man in front of him and was a little displeased, had Dolly already told him all that?
“Mr. Kirkland, what are you asking this for? These can be my personal matters.” Aston said in a cold voice without hesitation.
Yes, it’s true that this is her personal matter, but it’s also Dolly’s matter. If Dolly had kept it to herself, he wouldn’t have known until now that Aston had such a vicious side.
“Aston, I think you know very well about Dolly and I. I love her and she loves me, and I want you to leave her life alone, and also, if you have anything to do with it, come straight at me.”
It turned out that he was just hurting for Dolly. Aston grunted coldly, his expression a little disdainful, “Brayden, what do you mean by that? What the hell are you trying to say?”
Aston got angry, a pang of rage inside.
“What I mean, you should know very well in your heart. I warn you, don’t mess with Dolly again, or I won’t remember the past and give you face again and again.”
Finally, Brayden broke out anyway.
“Is it because of what happened last time abroad that you’re now cutting me off?” Aston looked incredulously at the person in front of him and kept shaking his head.
“Aston, think about it again, was it really just that one thing abroad?”
All of a sudden, Aston froze, did he know about these things in the country too?
“I have no idea what the hell you’re talking about, I have things I need to take care of, so I’ll go first.” With that, she was about to pick up the bag next to her and leave.
“Aston, a word of advice, stay away from that Vincent, or one day you will fall victim to him.”
Brayden was right, from the beginning, Vincent did not see Aston as his friend, he had been using her and cheating on her!
“I don’t need to be reminded of who I am friends with and who I am enemies with.” With that, Aston stepped on a pair of hatred sky high “thump thump” and left the western restaurant.
Damn it! On the road, Aston stomped her heels hard, she thought Brayden invited her to dinner to make up with her, but she didn’t expect the result to be so bloody!
In the western restaurant, Brayden was sitting alone in a corner seat, eating a steak on his plate with a very leisurely look, as if nothing had just happened.
And not far away, Aston sat on a stone chair by the road, cocking his head and looking at the sky, seemingly thinking about something.
Exactly, how did he know all this? Suddenly, Aston’s eyes lit up as if he remembered something, could it be the person in question? The one in the hospital had woken up?
Without any hesitation, Aston got straight into the car and drove quickly to the hospital.
Looking at the distant car, Brayden in the western restaurant wiped her mouth, smiled, and then got up and slowly left, if she guessed correctly, she should be going to the hospital.
“Knock!” The door in the ward was kicked open viciously, and Aston walked straight to the hospital bed, carefully observing everything about the person on top, shaking the arm on the bed, but there was no response.
“Hey! You wake up! I know you’re awake, open your eyes! I need to ask you something!” Aston shouted bitingly as he shook the person in the bed hard.
“I ask you, has your daughter woken up?” Aston grabbed the woman’s arm and hurried to ask.
Although the woman was a little surprised, but after all, her daughter had given her thought work before, so naturally, she successfully concealed her emotions, “You’re crazy! My daughter has woken up or not, I as a mother will not know? Get lost!”
“Snap!” The door of the ward was viciously closed.
Aston stood in the doorway, head bowed, eyes revealing a murderous aura… No, she must not be allowed to reveal anything! She turned to leave, looking a bit dazed.
“Daughter, who the hell is that man?” The woman asked her daughter in the hospital bed.
“Mom, remember, she is not a good person, you must be careful to watch out for her.”
The person in the hospital bed replied worriedly, wondering why Aston would suddenly find her way here? Could it be that Brayden said something to her?
The man in the hospital bed looked away from the window, lost in thought.
At this time the door was gently pushed open, looking at the person who slowly walked in, the woman was a little displeased.
“Mom, I want to eat ravioli.” The woman just wanted to speak, the person on the hospital bed then said directly, the woman hesitated, but still left the ward.
“She came to see you?” Brayden asked bluntly.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
“Yes, she just left.” The man in the hospital bed replied slowly, his expression a little scared.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let her hurt you guys, do you want to leave the country?” Brayden suddenly asked, with a remark that surprised the person in the hospital bed a little.
What did he want to do? Her face was covered with a haze.
“If you want, leave a recording that clarifies things, and I’ll send you and your mother out of the country to justify your treatment.” Brayden explained unhurriedly.
