After a moment of frowning and thinking, I turned my head to look at Brady and narrowed my eyes, somewhat questioningly, “It’s not possible that after I signed, Mr. Jenks crossed the river and left Hank alone at Country M and didn’t care, right?”
Brady sniffed and gave me a sideways glance, narrowing his eyes to reveal a frivolous look, “Look at you, what are you talking about, today I came here but risked offending Mr. George, enough to see the sincerity of it, you say so, really sad ~”
He pretended to be gloomy, hanging his head down, pinching his brow and sighing, looking like he really suffered a lot of grievances.
This is not a lie, the bigger my belly, the more Dennis does not want me to interfere with outside matters, this time he came to me, should avoid the ears of Dennis, but he never took into account the good intentions of Dennis worried about the emotions of pregnant women, not at all afraid of me because of the stimulation of the accident, although I am grateful, but see very clearly, Brady this guy’s eyes, in the first place The family interest is always in the eyes of Brady, if there is not enough to make him moved by the conditions, give up Hank thing he is able to do.
I thought about it, pushed the phone the way it was in front of him and said lightly, “I do believe in Mr. Jenks, but after tracing it for more than half a year, Mr. Jenks did not even find a shadow of Hank, which really makes people doubt the ability of the men, the matter of cooperation, or allow me to think about it again …”
Brady raised his phoenix eyes and looked at me sorrowfully, “You want to go back on your word?”
I shrugged my shoulders, “Soldiers never tire of deception, it’s good for both sides to be cautious in business.”
He sneered, his eyes were like hardened ice, “I thought Dennis was enough of a thief, but I didn’t expect you to be more cunning than him, the conditions promised to me have been delayed for half a year without being fulfilled, and now you still want to blackmail me to further expand my manpower to find?”
Indeed he was right, that’s what I was after.
I smiled bitchily and pretended to be innocent, “Mr. Jenks would be so grateful if you would.”
Brady stopped talking, sat up straight and slowly leaned back in the chair behind him, his eyes darting in and out of my body, as if considering my proposal.
Ryoko, he suddenly burst out laughing, “Hahahaha, well, I’ll make an exception for Miss Kennedy you once more, but …”
After a pause, he stretched out his hand, bent his knuckles and tapped on the desktop, his face suddenly became sinister and serious, “Next time if I bring Hank’s video and Miss Kennedy still drags her feet and refuses to agree, then don’t blame me for using extraordinary means.”
People like them who came over in the shouting and fighting, they can say and do threats naturally.
The hand hidden under the table squeezed a little tighter, I tried to maintain my composure on the surface, forced a smile and said calmly, “Sure.”
Brady some impatience and I stared at each other for a few seconds, then turned violently and walked out, leaving the blonde behind, stepping on high heels in the soft collapsing lawn ground trotting after, looking somewhat comical.
As soon as they left, Deborah started gossiping, “What kind of person is this?”
“Idle man.” I didn’t want to talk too much about this, so I digressed, “Leo doesn’t see much of anyone during the day these days, what’s he up to?”
The mention of Leo, Deborah is not too happy, bored fiddling with the potted plants on the table, “Do not mention it, since the last time I took you out and caused you to be taken away by Chandler’s people, Leo is not happy with me, probably hate me.”
“Uh …” I froze for a moment, but I did not think of self-assertion but caused them to start a gap, so I had to patiently reassure, “You think too much, maybe it’s just business is too busy.”
“You just don’t comfort me, is it really busy I can’t tell?” Deborah sighed, seemingly not at all hopeful, “before you go to the hospital to visit that Alex, Leo’s phone pulled down I let the driver take me to him, he for you, and Mr. Berger in public hands I saw, in his heart, still only you sister, this life, I am afraid no other woman can make I’m afraid no other woman in this life can make him look at her differently.”
I pursed my lips, for a moment could not refute, but after thinking about it, and came to his senses, “No, Deborah is wrong, you forget the time of the blind date, Leo admitted to you personally, he is fond of other women, I tell you, Leo is like this, looks like the sky is not afraid, but is a lover and does not know not dare to admit the coward, have to wait until the time of loss You must give him time, hang in there, and wait for him to get the hang of it, you know?”
Deborah does not eat this set, the performance is extremely oligarchic, full lips slightly pouting, or take a potted plant out of gas, “these words you have said, but the past so long, we instead even before the kind of fighting and quarreling fun are gone, maybe really just my wishful thinking, I still put away those restless thoughts, like Leo said, do a good job Mrs.. Kennedy is enough, think too much what is the use, there will be no results, but also to invite people to hate, huh …”
I know that she was Leo broke her heart, in my invisible time, Leo did not know how much cold water to her, a woman, where can bear the day after day indifference.
Women are flowers, is the need for care and the warmth of the sun and rain, living in the gloom, will only lose color.
I couldn’t sway Deborah’s decision, only silence.
At eleven o’clock at night, I was leaning on the sofa and falling asleep, when I heard footsteps in a daze, I opened my eyes and saw Leo taking off his jacket and covering me with it.
“Go back to your room and sleep when you wake up.” He said, slipping his jacket over his arm.
With two children in my belly sitting for a long time is indeed uncomfortable, I obediently propped up the arm of the sofa and stood up, Leo naturally held me, together with walking to the bedroom.
“Brother, you’ve been coming back later and later lately, is the company okay?”
“With Uncle Link on top, what can happen, just that the people underneath them don’t know how to do things, and got a big project in vain, I have to personally follow up to make up for it.” Leo’s voice was low, nothing unusual.
I stopped and looked at him seriously, digressing, “How’s Karina doing these days?”
Although separated for so long, I know that Leo is still secretly inquiring about her in private.
Leo knew I saw through it, let go of his hand, avoiding my eyes, a little at a loss, “Why suddenly bring her up …”
A soreness in my back, I reached up to brace myself before saying bitterly, “I’m trying to remind you that it’s time to let her go in the past, you can’t always live in the memories, Leo, it’s not your fault you lost Karina, that was a mutual choice, you’re still entitled to love someone else, don’t trap yourself, okay?”
Leo lowered his eyes and did not answer, but just confirmed my thoughts.
The kidnapping, Leo bite the Whaley family not only because of me, that day was taken away from the frightened, and Deborah.
He had already started to care about her in his heart, but the loss of Karina hit him so hard that he drew a blank in his heart, refusing and unwilling to forgive himself, but inadvertently used the same way to alienate the people who loved him.
