Chapter 529 I Have Something to Ask You "He's the one who provoked me. I don't have the time to play with him."
Brandon replied coldly.
He did not dare to speak too much in front of Haylie.
Fortunately, Haylie was not interested in it. She held the scarf on her shoulder. "It's windy here. Come with me to the house. I have something to tell you."
Brandon looked up at Gerald. He was completely unfamiliar with the house, so he might be exposed if he went.
Haylie noticed his movements and said snappily, "What are you looking at Gerald for? Do you want him to find an excuse to slip away for you? I can't even talk to you now, right?’
Since Haylie had said so, Brandon couldn't find an excuse to refuse, so he had to bite the bullet and follow her to the house.
Haylie stepped on heels and walked in front. Gerald pushed the wheelchair and followed closely behind.
"Mr. Cassel, please speak less. I will help you."
He nodded, indicating that he understood.
He looked up at the back of the woman in front of him. Blood relations were really strange. It was the first time he had met Haylie, but he felt very close. It was as if he had known her for many years. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
He quickly entered the house. The moment he entered, he smelled a sandalwood fragrance.
Brandon's eyes were sharp. He quickly noticed a Buddha statue enshrined in the northwest corner of the living room. Three incense sticks were lit in
front of the Buddha statue, and smoke rose in the air.
After Haylie entered the door, she cleaned her hands first, then walked to the Buddha statue. She picked up three brand-new incense sticks, lit them in front of the Buddha statue, and then inserted them into the incense burner.
Brandon calmly watched her do all this. After a while, Haylie looked over. "You are a man now. I usually don't care about you, but what happened between you and Lilia? Her father has called me."
This could not be explained clearly by a fake like Brandon.
He was silent, and his thin lips pursed into a straight line. He didn't know what to say.
After all, this was Finn's matter, and he, the newly appointed substitute, was not familiar with it. It was really difficult to deal with it.
Brandon frowned, sighed, and pursed his lips without saying anything. In Haylie's eyes, these actions showed that he was deeply hurt in a relationship.
As someone who had experienced it, she felt that it was necessary to solve the problem for these young people.
"Did you quarrel? Why?" Haylie asked.
"I treat Lilia as my sister," replied Brandon after thinking for a while.
Gerald, who was standing behind her, heard this answer and his eyes widened.
Everyone knew that Finn loved Lilia and had been doting on her since she was young. How could he only treat her as a little sister?
"Ha," Haylie snorted coldly. "Do you think I'm blind? How can I not tell what you like that girl? If she was your sister, why do you fly to Paris to see her every few days?"
Brandon deliberately said it. He simply did not know the details, so it was more outrageous. This way, Haylie only focused on refuting him and would not notice the small flaws in his words.
"I am not suitable for her." Brandon continued.
"If you quarrel, you can just admit it. Don't take 'suitable' as an excuse." Haylie sneered. "You are exactly the same as your father. You are stubborn!"
"You may not be clear about the situation between me and Lilia." Brandon raised his head. His dark eyes were full of mixed emotions.
Haylie was a very open-minded and easygoing parent. She really did not care about her son's private affairs. She only knew that her son and Lilia fell in love with each other, but she never interfered with their specific development.
"I think Lilia is a good girl. If you really like her, don't be angry and just talk to her calmly. Don't wait for her to marry someone in a fit of anger and you will start to regret it again."
Brandon nodded.
He felt that Haylie's words made sense.
At this age, once they were separated, they would have their own families, and there was no turning back.
He took a look at his watch. At this time, Finn should be chatting with Lilia at Sour Winery.
Brandon was correct. At this time, in the wine cellar, Lilia was staring at Finn angrily with red eyes.
"Finn, what do you mean? You really broke up like this? Do you have any conscience?"
Seeing his lover, who he had been longing for, stand in front of him again, Finn felt overjoyed.
At that moment, he really wanted to rush up and hold his beloved girl in his arms tightly.
But he did nothing because, in the current situation, he was not allowed to do anything out of line.
"Lilia, I thought a lot during the time we were apart. We may not be very suitable. It is good for us to be apart."
"Why? I think we are born to be together!"
She looked up and her eyes fell on Finn. His shirt vest, black-rimmed glasses, and hat were exactly the outfit she adored.
"Finn, if you don't like me, why are you dressed like this? I will not believe you when you see me dressing up so diligently and say you don't like me!"
"Are you talking about these clothes? Since this will be the last time we met, I want to leave you a good memory," Finn said with a bitter smile.
Lilia froze, her lips open and closed, but she could not say a word.
She really couldn't believe that she could hear such ruthless words from Finn.
Lilia took two big steps forward in a huff. Her soft arms wrapped around the man's waist and hugged him tightly.
"I don't believe it! You must be lying to me. Can you stop it? I'm really sad to hear you say this."
When Finn heard this, his heart broke.
His palm moved, and he had to restrain himself from the urge to hug Lilia in his arms.
Finn took a deep breath and said word by word, "Lilia, I'm sorry."
"I don't want to hear apology. Finn, can't we go back to where we started?"
Lilia raised her head and gazed at him like a puppy, looking pitiful.
"I'm sorry." Finn did not look at her. He raised his palm and hit Lilia's neck in the next second.
Almost in an instant, Lilia's body went soft and was about to slide down.
Finn took the opportunity to hug her and hugged her for a short while.
"Lilia, I'm sorry. I let you down."
Finn said softly with his body trembling.
