Love You Can’t Say

Looking at Dennis, Olivia shifted her body and smiled. “Is it true?”

I…

I found a place to sit down and said, “How old was aunt when she left home?”

Yara didn’t answer, but Dennis said, “Fifteen!”

I scowled. “Grandpa said he sent you to Country M when you were five after your parents had an accident and you didn’t come back to Newton Town until you were twenty. So you could eat a whole pot of porridge when you were five? Is your pot too small, or did you eat like a pig when you were five?”

Dennis squinted, looked at me and said, “The last thing I like to eat is pumpkin porridge.”

The translation was, “What Yara is saying is crap.”

I shrugged and glanced faintly at Yara’s embarrassed face. Then I grabbed the cereal Nanny Daisy had just brought me and pushed it to Dennis. “Eat,” I said. “You still have work to do.”

Yara was probably uncomfortable and didn’t want me to be happy. She looked at Dennis and said, “Olivia and I have to go to work later. Why don’t you take us there?”

Dennis looked at her blankly and said, “It’s inconvenient.”

“We are all going to the company. How can it be inconvenient?” Yara was already angry.

Olivia, who had not spoken, said softly, “Dennis, do you hate to see me?”

Dennis looked up at her with a serious nod. “Yes!”

I…

Olivia stood up, her eyes red, and said politely, “I’ll leave you alone.”

She was about to head for the door, but Yara stopped her. “Can’t you hear it? Dennis was joking with you. Where are you going?”

She said, dragging her to the table. Yara, who was older, looked at Dennis and said, “Where are you going? How can it be inconvenient?”

Dennis seemed impatient, put down his bowl and said, “I’ve got work to do.”

I ate a little and stopped eating. He frowned, “Don’t you like it?”

I shook my head. “It tastes good, but the environment is a bit noisy.”

Yara, who was not happy already, said suddenly, “Clara, what do you mean by that? After all, you’re a George, too. Can’t I come and stay with you for a few days when I’m in trouble? Are you trying to throw me out?”

I laughed and completely lost my appetite, “Do you really know that you are an elder? I don’t think any elder in this era would be so blatant in looking for a second wife for his younger generation, right?”

“A second wife?” Dennis frowned, “Clara, what are you talking about?”

I raised my eyebrow. “Isn’t it? Aren’t you going to find Dennis another wife?”

Seeing that I speak too freely, she looked at me coldly, and said, “Clara, what nonsense are you talking about?”

I laughed. “Nonsense? Don’t you know Olivia admires Dennis? Don’t you know she has her heart set on marrying Dennis? What’s your relationship with Olivia? What did you bring her in for? You’re gonna let her get close to Dennis, so Dennis and I can divorce?”

Feeling a little emotional, I looked at Yara and continued, “If you don’t like me, you can just say so. Dennis and I can divorce at any time. You don’t have to bring anyone into the house.”

With that, I got up and walked straight out of the hall without giving Yara a chance to argue.

Behind me came Dennis’s sulky voice. “You know Clara isn’t very well, so why do you have to pick on her? If you have a problem you can take it out on me, not her.”

I did not listen to the next words, but walk straight out of the villa and get into the car.

Dennis soon followed me out. Seeing me sitting idly in the car, he smiled. “Feel better?”

After staring at him, I started the car without saying a word and headed straight to work.

He quickly got in the passenger seat and looked at me. “Where are you going?”

“The Gibson’s.”

He frowned. “Let’s go see a doctor.”

I pressed my lips together, stopped the car, looked at him nonchalantly and said, “Get out of the car. I’m busy.”

He leaned back and said, “Let’s go to the Gibson’s and deal with your business first, and then we’ll go to the doctor.”

“Don’t you have things of your own to do?” He wanted to follow me 20 hours a day, but I was not a prisoner.

“My job today is to be with you!”

I was fidgeting as I tapped the steering wheel, but I swallowed my anger and looked at him calmly and said, “Okay, you drive. I can’t find the way.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

He raised his eyebrows, sat up straight, kissed me on the cheek, and said with a smile, “It’s the same thing when we go to the office after seeing the doctor.”

I frowned and waited patiently for him to get off.

He got out of the car and walked around the front to the driver’s seat. I watched him reach out to open the door, the violence in my bones arose, and then I squinted at him, pressed the lock button, looked at him lightly and said, “You take your time!”

With that, I put my foot on the gas and drove away. In the rearview mirror, he stood in the same spot, looking furious.

I just took one look and drove straight to the Gibson’s.

There were not many things in the company, but I had to check them out. Hank was gone, but the company was still running at the same pace. I briefly talked to Stones at work and came out.

Leo called and asked coldly, “Where are you?”

“The Gibson’s. What’s wrong?” Outside the office, I was in no hurry to leave. Instead, I stood at the door of the elevator and listened to the phone because there was no good reception.

His voice sounded a bit hoarse. Maybe he hadn’t slept well last night. He said, “Give me a few minutes and I’ll take you to the hospital.”

“I’m not going to the hospital.” I was getting a little irritable.

When I refused, he said angrily, “What are you going to do if you don’t go to the hospital? Are you trying to get yourself killed?”

What?!

“Leo, I’m in good health. Depression is just an emotional problem, and it’s not a big deal as long as it’s under control. Don’t make a fuss. I don’t have time later. How are things going with the Lewis family?” I changed the subject, not wanting to continue with the question.

“Making a fuss? You killed yourself, Clara. Isn’t that bad enough? Are you going to let me collect your body when you die?”

Feeling a little helpless, I continued to change the subject. “Haven’t you heard anything from the Lewis family about those files I gave you yesterday?”

I could hear him say with a sigh, “Well, Link tracked down Sam Bates and Andy Lee based on the information you gave and found the problem. He went to Newton Town today.”

I nodded, thought for a moment, and said, “Well, it doesn’t look like Luna has anything to do with this, and they’re all in business, so it all looks normal. Remind Link that he can start with Sam’s wife, and it may not be long before we can track down his dealings with Luna.”
