Chapter 387
Sienna's words made me stunned. By the time I reacted, Harrison was already standing beside me.
"Mr. Stewart, did you hear what I said just now?" Sienna asked with malicious intentions.
I secretly gave her a look, signaling her not to say anything more, but unfortunately, she didn't understand what I meant. Not only did she continue to talk about the topic just now, but she also said more.
"As her boyfriend, Mr. Stewart, he didn't do his duty. How could you let Chelsea bear this alone? Her uncle's family is eating people without spitting out their bones. If it goes on like this, Chelsea will be eaten into pieces."
When Sienna said these words, I looked at Harrison countless times and found that his expression didn't change. This made me feel relieved, but I raised it again.
At the thought that Harrison might not care about what happened to me, my heart ached, and my eyes were full of tears. "Sienna, things are not as complicated as you said."
I held back the urge to cry and stopped Sienna from finishing his words. Then I looked up at her with a forced smile and said, "Anyway, uncle is my mother's child, and I am her only child. I believe that uncle is not really willing to be cruel to me."
"Chelsea?" Sienna looked at me in shock.
Instead of answering Sienna's question, I turned to Harrison and asked, "Why are you here?"
Harrison said slowly, "I received a call from Sienna, saying that something happened to you."
This carefree attitude made my hand under the table tighten. Then I slowly let go of it, looked up and said to him with a smile, "It's nothing serious. Sienna just cares about me."
"Is that so?" Harrison asked.
She understood what he meant, but she still nodded subconsciously.
After I finished talking to him, I remembered that Sienna was still sitting opposite me. Looking at her holding back her anger but not losing her temper, I felt sorry in my heart.
If it was not Harrison standing in front of me, or Louie or Gao Yang standing in front of me, I would never have blocked her unfair words for me. I would have pretended as if nothing had happened and said that it didn't matter.
Sienna looked at me motionlessly. After about ten seconds, she looked away and quickly stood up from the chair. "Mr. Stewart, since you are here, I will leave first."
After that, she left without looking back.
Looking at Sienna's back, I watched her open the glass door and walk out without looking back at me.
"You've already pissed her off, yet you still want her to be reluctant to part with you?"
Harrison's voice came. I turned my head and saw him sitting opposite me. I looked at the door again and sat down after making sure that Sienna had left.
However, the two of us did not speak again.
We were so quiet as if we did not exist. I felt very uncomfortable, but I could do nothing.
Although Sienna just called him and asked him to come over, I suspected that he might have known everything that had happened this afternoon. And these things were said by Gao Yang himself, so I couldn't figure it out.
Although Gao Yang promised me that he wouldn't tell anyone, it wasn't impossible for him and Harrison to be so concerned. As long as I thought that Harrison might know everything, I felt very uncomfortable and uneasy.
"Have you made up your mind?"
Harrison's voice made me shudder. I looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Aren't you going to tell me about your conversation just now?" Harrison asked again.
My brain was spinning rapidly, and then I pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile, "Are you talking about Sienna's words? It's okay. It's just that she doesn't like my uncle's family. What else can there be?"
"But from her appearance, things don't seem as simple as you said," he said softly.
"It's not that you don't know about Sienna's character. She always likes simple things to make complicated things. Her uncle and his family are entangled with me, which makes her very disgusted. They must want you to come here to solve this problem." There was no need to come up with a plan in lies. It must be me.
After finishing this sentence, I added, "But what she doesn't know is that I have solved the problem. You don't need to work hard anymore."
"Really?" Harrison asked.
I nodded hastily to show my certainty.
Harrison raised the corner of his mouth and answered casually, "It's up to you."
After saying these three words, Harrison stopped talking. Looking at his expressionless face, I couldn't tell whether he was angry or not.
If he wanted to be angry, it seemed that there was no need to be angry. He could handle his girlfriend's family affairs by himself. Wasn't it good? But if he was not angry, why did he still look expressionless?
After sitting in the shop for about ten more minutes, I couldn't accept Harrison's silence. I simply got up and said, "It's getting late. Shall we go back?"
Harrison stood up and walked past me without saying a word.
Harrison's face was full of confusion as he was thrown to the spot. He had yet to figure out why Harrison was even more active than he was when I said I was leaving.
Although I was confused, I still quickly caught up with Harrison and got in the car. I thought I had to find a place to eat before going home, but I didn't expect him to drive directly to the villa, and the speed of driving was faster than before.
I sat in the passenger seat and looked Harrison up and down countless times, trying to find traces of anger on his face, but the result was a pity.
"We don't have any ingredients at home, do we need to buy something?" When we reached the gate of the villa, I finally couldn't help asking.
"No need," Harrison said flatly.
I thought for a moment and said again, "There is no food in the refrigerator."
Harrison didn't answer me. There was no pause from the door to the garage.
After entering the villa, I stood at the entrance and watched Harrison throw his coat on the sofa. Then he loosened his tie and looked at me. "Why are you standing there?"
When I came to my senses, I quickly put on my shoes and walked up to him. He looked down at me and said nothing.
Probably because I hid something from him, I instinctively felt guilty, so I didn't dare to look him in the eye. I could only lower my head and ask in a low voice, "I'll do something for you..."
"There's no need." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Harrison. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
After a few seconds of silence, I asked, "If you don't eat now, you will be hungry. Although it's not vegetable shopping, you can put a simple noodle. What do you think?"
I stood there and waited for Harrison's answer, but he didn't say a word from beginning to end. So, I finally couldn't help looking up at him.
The moment I raised my head, I met Harrison's gaze.
