Are you comparing Brandon to a dog?
“Who are you?” Mina Bell’s face turned slightly blue as she frowned.
Where did this rude kid co from!
Wyatt Hale raised an eyebrow, “Is it any of your business?”
“Since it’s none of your business, who asked for your opinion?”
…
Zoe Bell felt a headache coming on, seeing this kid in a suit, holding a thermos, she had thought he was steady, like William Hale.
Why does it feel,
so silly!
Although the brothers looked sowhat alike on close examination, their personalities were polar opposites.
The salesclerk, seeing an argunt brewing, quickly stepped forward to diate. Wyatt Hale simply looked at Mina Bell, “Seducing soone else’s fiancé and still having the face to speak, what has beco of society today? Are mistresses so bold now?”
“I’m not a mistress!” Mina Bell’s face flushed red.
Her affair with Brandon was common knowledge in Greenland.
The salesclerk also remained silent, looking at Wyatt Hale:
This kid, really too bold in his words.
“What nonsensical thing are you spouting? How is my daughter a mistress?” Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher and Ruben Fletcher also quickly approached.
“She admitted herself, she couldn’t control herself,” Wyatt Hale scoffed.
“Other mistresses would hide themselves if they could.”
“Yet, there are those who boast in front of the legitimate partner.”
Mina Bell clenched her bag, her body trembling slightly in anger, “They’ve already called off the engagent.”
“That’s still thanks to you!”
“You…”
“So people are cheap and low-class, yet they think wearing branded clothes with logos makes them high-class.”
Wyatt Hale scoffed, “Looking much older than our sister, yet deliberately using a tweezer voice to call her sister, you really aren’t ashad.”
Zoe Bell stared:
Is this kid’s mouth sared with poison?
Mina Bell was about to explode, he actually dared to say…
She’s old?
To say other things was bearable, but which woman could tolerate this kind of attack.
Zoe Bell just lowered her head, smiling faintly.
These words, she simply couldn’t have thought of or produced these vocabularies.
Mina Bell almost instinctively reached out to hit him, but Wyatt Hale wasn’t afraid. Zoe Bell frowned, worried he might get hurt, grabbed Wyatt Hale’s arm and pulled him behind her.
The other hand instantly grabbed Mina Bell’s swinging wrist!
Wyatt Hale froze for a mont, lowered his head, looked at his grabbed hand, then turned to look at Zoe Bell standing in front of him.
Being protected by a woman…
That feeling,
was sowhat wonderful.
“You…” Mina Bell gritted her teeth, trying to pull away, but her strength was no match for Zoe’s. “Zoe Bell, let go, or I’ll go ho and tell mom and dad that you’re ganging up with outsiders to bully .”
“Outsiders?” Zoe Bell scoffed, “To , he is family…”
“You guys are the outsiders!”
As Zoe Bell’s words fell, she already released the hand she was restraining.
Mina Bell’s body softened, and she actually fell and sat on the ground.
Wyatt Hale scoffed, “You fall and just fall, but why did you make it a slow motion? There are caras everywhere nowadays, are you trying to play the victim here!”
So salesclerks nearly laughed out loud, then quickly ca forward to help Mina Bell up.
She was both anxious and annoyed. Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher, unfamiliar with the matters in Greenland, her foster father Wane Fletcher directly charged forward, “What’s going on with this girl! What has my daughter done? What mistress, do you have proof?”
Zoe Bell laughed softly, “Everyone in Greenland City is a witness.”
“Go out now and just ask anyone what the relationship between Mina Bell and Brandon Stone really is.”
“Dad, that’s not it, she’s making it up,” Mina wanted to explain, “She’s the foster daughter of my parents, she’s just jealous of my relationship with Brother Brandon!”
Zoe Bell raised an eyebrow, “Have you ever seen a legitimate fiancée who is jealous of the other woman?”
“That, that’s because there were already problems in your relationship.” Mina argued!
“So, a ho-wrecker isn’t a ho-wrecker just because she took advantage of a vulnerable situation?”
“I…”
Unable to argue with her, Mina bit her lip, almost crying in desperation.
“Okay, since she’s Uncle Bell’s daughter, she’s actually family,” Ruben Fletcher chid in at this point, his eyes hadn’t left Zoe since she appeared.
“Brother—” Mina was furious.
“It’s getting late, why don’t we all have dinner together?” Ruben Fletcher suggested with a smile, then looked at Zoe, “You’re Zoe Bell, right? I’m Ruben Fletcher, I’m Mina’s brother.”
Zoe ignored him.
“Dinner?” Mina, furious, kicked at him, “Eat, eat, eat, that’s all you know, eat until you die!”
After speaking, she grabbed her bag and ran outside.
Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher chased after her, but Ruben Fletcher’s gaze still lingered on Zoe.
Greedy, oily, it was nauseating.
“Still looking? Believe , I’ll gouge out your eyes,” Wyatt Hale frowned.
“You’re so young, why are you so hot-headed?”
With his parents calling, Ruben Fletcher reluctantly left.
Seeing them leave, Zoe then turned and gave Wyatt Hale a faint smile, “You’re okay, right? Sorry to drag you into this.”
“No worries, I stepped in willingly,” Wyatt replied.
“From thousands of miles away, I could sll that ‘green tea’ scent.”
Zoe laughed aloud.
Wyatt looked down, and Zoe noticed she was still holding his wrist. She had been so tense she had grasped it too tightly, turning his wrist slightly red, “Sorry about that.”
“No problem.” Wyatt looked in the direction where Mina and the others had left, “I hope I haven’t caused you any trouble.”
“We’ve already ripped off the masks; it’s no bother.”
Not having to deal with Mina like before, Zoe felt extrely relieved.
After selecting the lapel chain and leaving the mall on their way back to Larkhill, Zoe glanced at Wyatt, “You and your family, do you all know about my situation? I just broke off my engagent, and I am an orphan.”
“My brother told .”
Even if he hadn’t, with the Hale Family’s ans, naturally, there were a thousand and one ways to investigate her thoroughly.
“We’re in the sa boat.”
“What?”
“Don’t let our large family fool you, I live like an orphan at ho too.”
“…”
“Can I ask you a question?” Wyatt tilted his head towards Zoe.
“Go ahead,” Zoe said, feeling good at the mont.
“My brother called earlier, specifically reminding to be careful when going out, saying he currently doesn’t want to publicize your relationship.” That’s why Wyatt had initially called her ‘sister.’
Zoe’s fingers tightened on the steering wheel, “Mr. Hale said he doesn’t want to make it public?”
“Yeah, I don’t understand why.”
“But don’t take it too much to heart, we’re living together anyway, the family knows, and with my brother’s character, he won’t abandon you after starting sothing.”
Zoe responded gloomily, “Mr. Hale he… is really a good person.”
Wyatt blew up:
My dear sister-in-law, can you not use that word for him, it’s frightening!
People are hiding your relationship, yet you still think he’s good?
Have you been brainwashed?
“Can I ask you sothing?” Zoe suddenly spoke.
“Go ahead.”
“Your brother… does he have soone he likes?”
