Chapter 13
Zaiden watched Cynthia, who didn’t even look back, recently she has become more and more arrogant, thinking he wouldn’t divorce her, so she dared to do whatever she wanted to him?
“Don’t pay attention to her, you don’t need to please her in the future. You are my sister, if anyone should try to please the other, it should be her.”
“But I’m not your
real 1 sister either.”
She was just about to say, “Cynthia didn’t even notice her.”
‘Don’t bother with her, just listen to me. If you need anything, come to me and I’ll back you up.”
Zaiden took another look at the clothes here and said, “Is there anything you like? I’ll buy it for you.”
Belinda saw that Zaiden did not chase after her, and a smile crept onto her lips.
No, I have money.”
“You have yours, I’m your brother, helping you buy a few clothes is nothing.”
The shop assistants glanced at each other and suddenly remembered the saying, “A man treats a woman like a sister, able to
arrack and defend.”
Moreover, Belinda said they were not blood–related, calling each other brother and sister on the surface, but who knows if they are lovers in private!
The girl next to Braiden had been choosing clothes all the time, talking to Braiden several times, but Braiden didn’t respond.
She looked in the direction he was looking, and saw that the corners of his mouth were still upturned, completely different from the aloof expression he had in front of her, looking rather strange.
Mr. Ferguson, what are you looking at?”
When Cynthia left, Braiden’s gaze returned, with a smile still lingering at the corner of his mouth.
But this smile always made people feel uncertain.
“No problem, have you finished shopping?”
L…
Before finishing speaking, Braiden stood up from the sofa and said, “Sorry, I have something come up suddenly, I have to leave.”
The girl wanted to call out to Braiden, but Braiden was walking very fast.
Cynthia bought herself a favorite piece of clothing from another store, and her mood improved a lot. She was about to buy a cup of coffee when she heard someone next to her say, “Hello.”
I wanted a cappuccino.”
Cynthia looked at Braiden beside her, and there was no longer the figure of the girl who had been there before.
Braiden looked at her and said, Ms. Shepherd, won’t you buy me a drink?”
Cynthia told the waiter that she wanted a cup of coffee and a cup of cappuccino, ready to pay, only to see that Braiden had already paid.
Braiden raised his phone and said, “I was afraid you would say you already treated me to coffee, so dinner is on me. I owe you
one.”
<Chapter 13
Cynthia smiled helplessly and said, “Mr. Ferguson, you saved me twice, each time was a lifesaver, I’m not that petty.”
“I treated Ms. Shepherd to coffee.”
“Thank you, Mr. Ferguson.”
The waiter suddenly asked, Do you want the coffee hot or iced?”
“It was too hot for her to drink cold.”
The order taker said “okay” and then got busy.
Cynthia looked at Braiden strangely and said, “How did you know I can’t drink cold drinks?”
Braiden rarely acted this way, with his hands in his pockets, trying to appear more natural.
“Aren’t you women all unable to drink cold drinks? Mainly, I am also worried that if you get a stomachache from drinking, you
won’t be able to treat me to a meal, and I’m afraid this meal will be ruined.”
Cynthia didn’t see anything, nor did she suspect. After being in contact with Braiden for so long, he was just that kind of
person.
Two people got their coffee, and Cynthia saw him following her, so she asked, “Where is that girl just now?”
‘She had to leave early due to some last minute matters.”
Braiden took a sip of cappuccino, trying to conceal his awkwardness.
Cynthia smiled at him. They usually saw each other at work and rarely met alone.
Suddenly coming together, there seemed to be nothing much to talk about if not work.
Cynthia stopped and said to him, “Mr. Ferguson, I’m going back, you…”
“Coincidentally, I am also heading back, so I can give you a ride on the way.”
“No, I have other things to do.”
Cynthia nodded at him coldly, took a few steps back, and then, left.
The girl who had seen this scene before was surprised. “Didn’t Braiden say he had something to do? Could it be that he has finished dealing with it and come back to find me?”
“Bra…
Before I could even shout, I saw Braiden had already lifted his leg and left.
On the way home, Cynthia received a call from Jocelynn.
She was not very willing to answer, so she just left it there, but Jocelynn is also a very persistent person, kept calling her, Cynthia had to pick it up.
“Mom.”
“Why aren’t you at home? I went to your house, Zaiden said you haven’t been back for days. Cynthia, you’re not trying to wait for Zaiden to apologize to you, are you?”
“What did he do wrong? Belinda had an abortion and almost died. He should have gone. If she really died because of your wedding, won’t your conscience be condemned for life?”
Cynthia didn’t say anything.
What can I say?
Her mother never spoke kindly to her, everything she did was wrong, so she just stopped talking.
< Chapter 13:
“You’ve been sulking for so many days, it’s about time to stop, right? Come back quickly and sincerely apologize to Zaiden.”
I can tell, Zaiden wasn’t really mad at you, you still have feelings for each other, right?”
Cynthia knew why Jocelynn had gone in the past few days. Jocelynn’s heart was always uneasy, so she had to go and see, afraid that she would divorce Zaiden. Her second husband couldn’t get any benefits from the Gwinnett family.
“Don’t think that just because you don’t speak, you can pretend to be dead and not hear anything! I know you hear everything loud and clear, your personality is just like your deceased father’s…”
“Have you had enough?”
Jocelynn was taken aback, “Cynthia, I am your mother, your only relative in this world. What’s wrong with me saying a few words? I am doing it for your own good. It hasn’t been easy for me to raise you all these years. I am not asking for you to repay me, but you can’t go against me either!”
“You can’t listen to what I’m saying now, but you’ll know if I’m right later!”
Perhaps sensing that Cynthia was about to hang up, Jocelynn added, “…”
“Come back as soon as possible. Be careful, I will find you and personally bring you back to apologize to Zaiden.”
Cynthia was so annoyed that she hung up the phone directly.
Cynthia didn’t drive well. She found Giovanna’s phone number and called her.
“Hey, Giovanna, do you have any plans for tonight?”
“No, did you ask me our for a meal?
Hmm, I wanted to drink.”
Giovanna knew right away that something had happened to her.
“Alright, where should we meet?”
I’ll send you the location in a moment.”
“We settled on that so happily.”
Cynthia’s mouth curved up.
When you need it most, having a best friend to accompany you is also a kind of luck.
Cynthia first went home, she didn’t drive, but parked the car at home and called a Grab.
After getting on the car, Cynthia received a text message from Zaiden, which included a photo showing various ingredients, each with powerful nourishing properties.
Of course, it was to supply Cynthia.
Zaiden wrote below: These were all sent
sent by your n mother. Who between us is worse off in any aspect!”
Cynthia held onto her phone tightly, no need to ask, her mother wanted her to quickly conceive Zaiden’s child and secure Mrs. Gwinnett’s position.
