"What is it?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Bryan's eyes turned gloomy.
Chloe lowered her voice even more and whispered into Bryan’s ear, "Bryan, don't you think there's something odd going on between Anna and your uncle?”
"What are you saying!” Bryan's brows knitted tightly together.
"Bryan, I'm serious! Uncle has always been hostile toward Anna, but lately, he seems so concerned about her. He even came here to visit her! Moreover, he went to her room and they spent a lot of time there alone!"
Bryan was vexed. "Shut up! There's no way!"
Although Bryan was not close to his uncle and did not even dare to breathe too loudly in front of him, he still could not accept the possibility that his uncle might have been involved with his ex- fiancee.
"Chloe Hamilton, I'm warning you, you better keep your mouth shut! Don't offend the man that should never be wronged! Otherwise, no one can protect you!"
Seeing Bryan's enraged expression and heavily heaving chest, she hurriedly tried to soothe him.
"Bryan... Don't be mad..."
"Who do you think my uncle is! Why would he ever fall for Anna Hamilton!” Bryan fumed in a low tone.
"I don't think that Uncle will fall for Anna either... I'm just worried that... Anna might be intentionally seducing him." Chloe said that to test Bryan's reaction. She observed his expression, only to notice his anger worsening. Chloe quickly shut her mouth.
"Her seducing my uncle?" Flames ignited deep within Bryan's eyes. “She can't be that kind of person, right!"
That was what Bryan said, but a fierce fire burnt within his chest the moment he thought about the possibility of Anna flirting with Liam.
Anna had always acted like an innocent nun in front o f her. Could she have the capability to hook up with men in secret?
He had not indulged in her yet-she must not allow any other men to taint her innocence before that!
Thinking about Anna's snow-white skin and exquisite body made Bryan’s throat run dry. A different kind of flame burnt deep within his eyes.
Chloe noticed the desire in his eyes. Her heart filled u p with hatred. She must find evidence to prove that Anna was a b*tch!
At the moment, Bryan still felt as if they had wronged Anna so Chloe knew she should not talk too much about it. Otherwise, Bryan might grow suspicious.
"Bryan, in truth, I think that apologizing to Anna on the television might seem a little insincere. How about we apologize to her in person?”
"Apologize to her in person?" Bryan flinched.
Ever since Chloe got pregnant, Bryan had never come face to face with Anna. He was sort of afraid to face her.
Chloe hugged Bryan’s arm. "Bryan, let’s go see Anna! Daddy has forbidden her from going out these few days. I feel bad for her."
"He forbade her from going out? Why?" he asked.
"Did you forget what happened at Golden County International? A tranny hit me and even called you hubby."
"Of course I remember!”
A hint of resentment emerged on Bryan's face. "A recording of it was even uploaded onto the web. So many people called me a pervert that swings both ways! Otherwise, I wouldn't have wasted so much time on charity to restore my reputation.
"What about him? What does that have to do with your sister?" he questioned.
Chloe fumed, "Bryan, the guy's name is Jamie. He’s Anna's best friend. Anna was there on the day he humiliated us. She hid and did not show her face."
Bryan frowned. His expression turned dark. "Do you mean to say that Anna was the one who devised all of i t just to humiliate us?"
"Yes, that's exactly what happened." Chloe nodded affirmatively.
Bryan frowned doubtfully. "Chloe, is that true? We’re already engaged. There doesn't seem to be any reason for you to say such things in front of me anymore. Your sister is no longer a threat to you.
"Don't think I don't know that you're just trying to stir u p trouble and ruin my relationship with her! She has already lost everything! Look how pitiable she is! I don’t want you to be so against her anymore.”
Chloe's breathing stopped abruptly. "Bryan, what do you mean? When did I stir up trouble? Right now, not only am I your wife-I am also the mother of your child! Why would I do something like that?"
Chloe started sobbing. "Bryan, do you still have feelings for Anna? I’m already carrying your child. Grandma even said she'll hand you the entire Dawson family if the child turns out to be a boy! You better forget about Anna! She can't provide you with anything!"
When Bryan saw Chloe cry, he hurriedly comforted her, "There, there, Chloe. Don't cry. It's not good for the child. That isn't what I meant. I just hope that you and your sister can get along well. If any rumors break out again, it won't be good for your reputation either.
"You are my future wife. The whole Dawson family is keeping their eyes on you. I am just afraid that you might slip up."
Chloe pouted her dainty lips and sniffled dejectedly." Bryan, how could you not trust me? I'm telling the truth. When have I ever lied to you!
"Besides, Anna admitted to it in front of our father. She said that she held resentment in her heart because of what happened between us. That was her revenge."
"Revenge?" Bryan scrunched his brows together tightly. He was not mad; on the contrary, an odd sense of attraction emerged in his heart.
Anna's reaction toward that incident was so sensible. I t made Bryan think that she truly had no feelings toward him. Her revenge taken out of resentment could only mean...
The corner of his lips gradually curled up into a faint smile.
"Jamie is Anna's best friend and a gay man! They had always been secretly keeping in contact. Who knows what kind of relationship they share! Anna even defended him in front of our father.
From the way I see it, her relationship with Jamie can't be pure!"
Bryan could not hear a word Chloe said. His gaze shifted toward the direction of Anna’s room. All sorts o f thoughts ran through his mind.
Chloe's pitch abruptly turned high. She shook Bryan's arm non-stop. "Bryan! Anna even called you an illegitimate child and said you are not worthy of a woman of her status! She said she would rather marry
Jamie than you!"
The two words-illegitimate child-had always been a thorn in Bryan’s heart.
"Enough!"
Bryan roared.
Those two words made up the phrase Bryan most bitterly detested in his heart. His shame was multiplied tenfold. His eyes gradually turned bloodshot.
Chloe continued angrily, "You were right, Byran. She is just an arrogant white swan! She doesn’t care about anyone else!
"Now, she has nothing! Not even her vision. All she has left is her status as the daughter of a wealthy family! How could she be so shameless! What a joke!
"I have no idea what exactly she can be so proud of right now!"
Chloe carefully examined the look of rage on Bryan's face. She asked in a low and cautious tone, "Bryan, taking Anna’s behavior into account, do you still think we need to feel remorse toward her?"
Bryan smiled abruptly. A strange look appeared deep within his eyes.
"Apologizing is still a must. But... let me do it myself!"
