Chapter 278 : The Third Aunt’s Trouble
The person driving the car is Delisa, if I’m not mistaken, the one in the passenger seat should be Hailie.
Bruce was already last night by the girls a mess, unexpectedly today out again encounter, naturally can not be good mood.
At this time Lindsey also saw Delisa, and her side of Hailie, the heart also feel a little upset.
The city of B is not too big, not too small, everywhere you go, you can meet, she really does not think it is fate.
As she was lost in thought, Delisa and Hailie got out of the car and greeted Bruce with a light tone.
“What a coincidence.” Hailie looked at Bruce warmly, “Why don’t you join us.”
Bruce frowned and said coldly, “Sorry, we are having dinner as a family, we don’t like strangers to disturb us.”
After saying that, he greeted Edward and Lily, took Lindsey’s hand and turned around to walk inside.
Hailie and Delisa stood still and waited for them to walk away before they stepped away with different thoughts.
Delisa did know that Edward had married the daughter of The Grant family, but now she saw the girl, and Lindsey is clearly a mold printed out, the mystery is also solved.
The Gregor familyOld Mr. Grant personally sponsored the match, The Grant family’s granddaughter, The Hawke family this time can really rely on a big tree.
She thought of Aurora again, and couldn’t help but feel that fate had taken its course.
When she entered The Grant family, how many people watched her, and how many people said behind her back Lindsey, a sparrow is a sparrow.
But a few years of light, the original sparrow not only flew up to the branch, but also the sister’s identity elevated, and the year the Phoenix …
There is a saying that a fallen phoenix is not as good as a chicken, which is the best reflection of Aurora today.
In contrast to Delisa’s lament, Hailie’s mind is completely different.
As one of the instructors of this officer training, her heartbeat inexplicably accelerated the first time she saw Bruce, and occasionally passed by him in lecture, the kind of excitement, it is difficult to express.
She liked Bruce, even though he was already married.
This kind of like comes without warning, but it really affects her emotions, less a day without him, the heart is like lost soul, all uncomfortable.
Silently, Hailie entered the reserved courtyard, looked at the view of the courtyard, went into the elegant room and pulled out a chair and sat down.
Delisa sat across from her, looked at her without moving, and hesitantly said, “Dr. Hailie, my cousin is not doing anything today, why don’t you ask him to join us?”
“Your cousin?” Hailie looked up and smiled quietly. “Sure, it just so happens that I’d like to meet a few more friends.”
Hailie’s life is relatively simple, after graduating from undergraduate school has been shuttled between the laboratory and the dormitory, social activities are basically colleagues in the research institute, like this out to dinner is not very often.
When Delisa saw that she agreed, she took her cell phone and called Randy, but the other party was not available, and there was a buzzing sound around her from time to time, which sounded like the sound of a helicopter propeller turning.
After a disappointing chat, Delisa hung up the phone and smiled at Hailie breathlessly. “He’s busy, I’ll be sure to introduce him to you next time I have the chance.”
Hailie didn’t care, but took the initiative to bring up Bruce. “What do you know about The Grant family?”
“Me?” Delisa pointed to her nose, shrugged her shoulders and laughed, “I know as much as you know, and if it were four years ago, I wouldn’t even know that The Grant family had a grandson.”
“Oh, and do you know him well?” Hailie frowned and asked again, “How was his relationship with his wife.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“PhD, you do like him, don’t you.” Delisa finally sensed that something was wrong. “I advise you to change the person like.”
Hailie smiled, her eyes looking at her searchingly. “How so?”
Delisa stared at her eyes for a moment, confirming that she was really unaware of Aurora’s existence, picked up her teacup and took a sip of tea, speaking slowly.
At this time, not far from each other in another courtyard, Lindsey is also inquiring about Hailie.
In the past, when Aurora made, she graciously avoided. This time is different, Bruce is her husband, and the father of her children.
It doesn’t make sense that people are so provocative, she has to be a shrinking violet.
For Lindsey’s mind, Bruce is very clear, so no hidden, to tell what he knows.
I thought Lindsey would be relieved after hearing this, but instead her face wrinkled up and she looked very unhappy.
“What’s wrong?” Bruce held her hand and asked carefully, “Where are you not feeling well, do you want to go to the hospital.”
Lindsey shook her head, bit her lower lip sullenly, and spoke only after a long time: “I don’t like that PhD, can you stay away from her in the future.”
Bruce couldn’t help but lose his smile. “Okay, training until the end of the year, after the New Year we will go to the station together.”
Edward looked at them in the clouds and interjected curiously, “What are you talking about, Lindsey is so unhappy.”
“Nothing.” Bruce smiled and unconsciously tightened the force of his hand.
After lunch, the two of them declined Edward’s invitation and drove back to the old house.
When they got to the door, they didn’t expect to see Kaley’s car stopped by the guard, and she was on the phone with her cell phone, with a very frightening look on her face.
“Bruce, the third aunt is not complaining to grandpa, right? This is the ancestral home of The Grant family that has been passed down for generations, is it too much to let her in?” Lindsey said so, but her heart did not feel the slightest sense of guilt.
The Grant family is a part of Kaley, but nothing she does is good for the Grant family.
In the words of Old Mr. Grant, staying out of trouble is the bottom line, no one can cross it.
As a child of The Grant family, she allowed her own son to poison his nephew, but also came here to tell her what to do, why let her.
Bruce rubbed his temples, his face as gloomy as ink, staring out the window at Kaley, for a moment before turning back to Lindsey and smiling. “Don’t worry, grandpa’s got his head on straight and won’t allow her to fool around.”
Lindsey nodded and turned her head to look out the window at Kaley.
A short while later, Kaley finished her phone call, noticed Bruce’s car returning, and immediately walked over with calm steps.
Bruce pursed his lips, pushed open the car door to get down, followed by reaching out to help Lindsey, without the intention of greeting.
Kaley’s heart was burning with anger, and she scolded him as soon as he opened his mouth: “You have no respect for your elders even before your wings are hardened, what kind of decency is that?
“Third Aunt, since you know you are an elder, you should behave like one!” Bruce narrowed his eyes dangerously and looked at her with a cold gaze. “Lindsey is the wife I wrote the marriage letter, entered into the family tree, married back explicitly, and is also a part of The Grant family, please put some respect in your words!”
“Yes, yes!” Kaley laughed in anger. “You’ve grown up, haven’t you? How dare you talk to me like that over an outsider!”
Bruce bit the back of his teeth invisibly and said angrily, “To me, the real outsider is you!”
At these words, Kaley instantly changed her face.
She is an elder in the end, and when she was reprimanded by a junior, her resentment could be imagined.
Lindsey took Bruce’s hand, wanting to persuade him to save face for his third aunt, but this action fell into Kaley’s eyes and became a deliberate attempt to turn Bruce against himself.
The resentful eyes stayed on her face for a second, and Kaley was so angry that she almost gritted her teeth. “I am an outsider, without me The Grant family could have come this far, without me, you Bruce is nothing!”
“Indeed, four years ago could not kill me, now is not planning to do it again.” Bruce sneered. “Don’t think grandpa doesn’t know anything!”
Kaley was so angry that she couldn’t speak, and the muscles in the corners of her eyes trembled violently, as if she had been slapped with a single slap, her cheeks hurting raw.
After a few seconds of confrontation, she grumbled, turned her head and got into her car, and left in a flash.
Lindsey watched her car go away and sighed unconsciously. “I have a hunch that she’ll go to Grandpa and tell him off.”
“Just go!” Bruce was also furious, his voice swirled down after yelling, and he doted on her, pulling her into his arms. “Come on in, you’re so sleepy you can’t even open your eyes.”
Lindsey blushed and let him hold her hand as they entered the courtyard.
The weather was already cool, the sun was still showing its face in the morning, but now somehow the clouds suddenly rose, the sky looked like a soiled rag.
After entering the courtyard, Lindsey took a break and dragged Bruce back to his room for a nap.
When she got into bed, she couldn’t sleep, and her mind kept going back and forth about Kaley.
Bruce was protective of himself, which made her feel very comfortable, but she knew Kaley’s nature, and after this time there might be a next time.
Probably because her breath was too distracted, Bruce abruptly opened his eyes and looked at her gently. “Still worried, huh?”
“Well …” Lindsey nodded gently and said honestly: “The third aunt is much more difficult than the youngest aunt, the youngest aunt cold is cold, but basically does not interfere with the family, and will not ask me how. ”
“The third aunt is like that, she is The Grant family’s first female child, the eldest uncle and our father as a child are particularly loved her, not to mention grandpa and grandma.” Bruce’s voice was soft, with a hint of warm laughter. “You just don’t care about her, she can’t bite you anyway.”
Lindsey thought to herself, “Yes, according to Old Mr. Grant’s request, she will be staying at Nine Lakes on Monday, and Kaley will have to ask Old Mr. Grant’s opinion if she wants to go.
After thinking about this, she shrank down and curled up into Bruce’s arms, closing her eyes in satisfaction.
Bruce looked down at the person in his arms, the corners of his lips raised a little arc of satisfaction.
Nearly one o’clock at noon, Kaley’s car arrived outside the gates of Nine Lakes Mountain, but because there was no access permit, they were not allowed to enter.
When she called Old Mr. Grant, the Jack who answered the phone said that Old Mr. Grant had gone to bed and asked her to come back in the afternoon.
After hanging up the phone, Kaley was so angry that she kicked the car door a few times and hated Lindsey even more.
Since she appeared in The Grant family, first her son was injured for no reason, and thus violated the discipline of the army. Then, her husband’s career stalled and he was relegated.
Several things added up to one place, The Harris family in B city has basically no status to speak of, in The Grant family is even worse than Jack, how can she accept such a result.
After waiting sullenly for a while, seeing that she could not convince the armed police on duty at the post, Kaley turned around and got into her car, returning to the Royal Garden.
After Burton’s injury, he delayed the best time for treatment, causing his leg to walk with a limp.
This defect is not too serious, but he can not return to the Grant Group to run the family business, nor can he serve in other units, because Old Mr. Grant gave an order not to use the Grant family’s connections to get him a job.
This decision is tantamount to kicking Burton out of The Grant family. As long as he is still in B City, not to mention the employers, even the rich and powerful in the city do not care to deal with him.
Seeing his son’s promising future being messed up by the sudden emergence of Lindsey, There is no hatred like this, simply let people do not die ah!
