Beloved Old Lover

Brian had to admit that Emily was very good at saying things to make others feel less guilty.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Who would have thought that in just one day, he would discover that he had two younger sisters? Compared to Jennifer, he felt that Emily was more similar to him.

It was funny because he had often told himself that his and her faces were similar because they were destined to be husband and wife.

“Emily, don’t work here anymore, go back to my company, I guarantee Jennifer won’t dare to cause trouble for you.” Brian spoke up.

“No, I like doing this job.” She shook her head, continuing to wear another pair of nylon gloves to tear up the dried squid.

“The environment here is too complicated. And if you don’t like working at GE Corporation, I can help you open a fashion store or a large tailor shop. You like fashion design, right?”

“Brian…” She stopped, looking straight at his expectant face.

“Yes, you say it, I’m listening.”

She exhaled and told him that the working environment here was very good, with clear regulations and work division for employees.

The fact that he used the excuse of wanting to cut fruit in the room is an example of how the service staff are very well protected from the bad guys.

“The manager is the man you saw yesterday, he always defends his employees.”

When she spoke, her eyes were filled with the happiness of freedom, making Brian unable to speak even if he wanted to give more advice.

Perhaps over time or after a major event in her life, her dreams have changed.

Perhaps she is stepping out of her comfort zone, walking on a path that she thinks is fun and comfortable.

He should be happy for her, right?

“Okay Emily, no matter what you decide, I will always support you. Forget the painful past and step into the future. If possible… I mean you can consider me as an older brother, whenever you need me, I will appear and help you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, she finished tearing the squid, conveniently took a piece, and put it in her mouth to chew.

She acted without answering, but a smart person like Brian immediately understood that she had agreed.

He had no way to openly accept her as his sister, so he had to propose like that.

“Give me your phone number, and promise that if you change your phone number, you will notify me.” Brian held out his phone and suggested.

She nodded, took it and entered her phone number, then made the call. Having a brother like Brian was truly beyond her imagination.

Not discussing material things, his personality deserves nine and a half points, half a point less than Daniel’s. For her, Daniel is the most perfect person, a rare gem that is difficult to find in life.

“Are you available tomorrow? Come hang out with me for a day. I often come here but it’s always for work and I want to spend a day hanging out with my sister.”

“Okay, so when you’re almost here, let me know so I can prepare.”

“I will be at your place at six o’clock in the morning. Please send me the location of where you live.”

Emily agreed and quickly left the room, not forgetting to tell him that if he needed to serve anything else, just ring the bell.

Brian looked at her back until it was completely gone before bending down and focusing on eating. This is his dinner, but this dinner is the strangest dinner in all the years he has lived in this world.

He didn’t know whether he should thank Jennifer for causing trouble or not. If that hadn’t happened yesterday, how could he have met Emily again and relieved his worries because he saw that she was still living well?

When dawn came again, Brian woke up and got ready. He’s been torturing himself these past few months, so today he rewards himself with a relaxing Saturday.

After telling his assistant to reschedule the appointments for next week, he got out of his car and drove to the other side of the city.

Kevin’s group set off later because he had to have breakfast with his parents.

Hearing their son say he was going out for two days to relieve stress and pressure, Jessica and Matthew thought he was going far away, at least to another province.

However, when they heard him say he was going to the north side of the city, both of them looked dumbfounded because it only took nearly two hours by car and there was no sea or mountains at all.

At exactly eight o’clock in the morning, two cars met at the gate of Unicons Group and departed to the north of the city. Kevin took Sara, and Venn’s car took Lisa.

Sara noticed that her boss’s face looked excited, as if he was about to meet his lover, but she didn’t want to ask because she was afraid he would adjust his facial muscles and become as cold as an iceberg.

After arriving, checking into the hotel, and storing their belongings, the four of them walked around together, and enjoyed food and shopping.

Sara felt that her boss was insipid because the North side of the city could not compare to the South side of the city in terms of entertainment.

If it was because he had an appointment with a group of businessmen, he should have gone in the evening.

Did he come here early just to drive and look around and eat some of the dishes that are also available on the south side of the city?

She didn’t know his schedule had changed slightly. Because the place he had the most doubts about was the Paradise pub, which only opened at night, he had to wander around for the rest of the day instead of going to the places where people had taken pictures of Emily.

“That dress suits you very well.” Sara spoke up when she saw Lisa passionately looking at the dress with an extremely elegant, gentle design with delicate cuts.

Lisa smiled and moved closer to see the price and when she saw so many zeros, the smile on her face disappeared.

It turned out that she had followed everyone into a store that specialized in selling branded goods. The price of the cheapest dress is equal to several months of her salary, not less.

“If you like it, just take it. So does Sara. Today I will pay.” Kevin spoke up, holding out the black card.

“Oh, I won’t be polite.” Sara grabbed it and told the staff to quickly take down the dress for Lisa to try on.

The moment Lisa looked at herself in the expensive dress reflected in the mirror, she immediately imagined the scene of her wearing a wedding dress and the future groom was none other than Kevin.

This further motivated her to have him at all costs. She wanted to possess all of his money, position, fame, and affection. If he is so generous to his employees, his wife will sleep on diamonds.

Before taking off her dress, Lisa took out her phone and took a photo.

In the end, Sara took five dresses and two pairs of shoes, and Lisa, wanting to prove that she didn’t take advantage of her boss’s kindness, only took one dress.

Even though Sara said the store had many dresses suitable for Lisa’s body shape and age, she still didn’t buy more, saying one was enough.

“You don’t need to save money for your boss. He’s not your husband either. Let me tell you, if you don’t take advantage of this time, there won’t be another time.” Venn spoke up, half serious and half joking.

Lisa’s cheeks suddenly turned red. She secretly looked at Kevin, but he was staring at his phone.

Initially, the group of young businessmen booked a VIP room at the Rose Pub, one of the two largest pubs on the north side of the city, but yesterday, Kevin expressed his desire to change the location and go to the Paradise pub.

So this morning, the group of businessmen had to consult again and at this moment, they agreed to follow the wishes of the businessman on the south side of the city.

While Kevin’s group was walking around the mall, Brian and Emily were sitting in the park, enjoying the breeze and eating a simple lunch.

Brian felt that these were rare meaningful moments between him and her and he didn’t know if these moments could continue in the future.

“When sewing, remember to stand up from time to time, move around, and relax, sitting for too long is harmful to the spine.” Brian poured water into a glass, brought it to her, and said.

“Yeah, I know that. When you work, remember to pay attention to your health and eat enough meals. You’ve been very skinny lately.”

“Yes, everything is almost okay, don’t worry. But your manager doesn’t have any romantic feelings for you, right?”

“No, he still scolds me if I do something wrong. If it wasn’t because he had to go abroad today, I would invite him to join us.”

To be honest, when Brian saw Kurt proactively demanding justice for Emily, asking Jennifer to apologize to her, he had a very good impression of this man.

Now, Emily is his sister, so he also hopes that she will soon meet someone who can be with her for the rest of her life, protecting and taking care of her. Only husband and wife can take care of each other for a lifetime.

Seeing that she was happy and didn’t mention anything about the past, Brian also didn’t want to tell her about Kevin coming to her house and going crazy, smashing things up.

Although she had lost the Wine Company, Brian saw that the current girl had returned to the carefree schoolgirl of the past.

Perhaps she will still have worries about the future and life, but her eyes are sparkling with joy again, no longer melancholy.

In the morning, when he stopped by the motel room and saw Daniel’s photo next to her sewing machine, his heart sank.

After finishing eating, both of them cleaned up their things and lay down on the soft grass.

The dense dark foliage overhead covers the harsh sunlight, and cool breezes blow from all directions, making people feel refreshed and relieved.

Emily closed her eyes, completely relaxing. Before, when she saw Brian, she tried to avoid him, but she didn’t expect that after a major event in her life, she and he would become as close as brother and sister.

In the afternoon, Brian took Emily out to eat before returning to the south side of the city. Tomorrow, he has to fly abroad and that flight will take off at two in the morning.

Knowing she liked to eat shrimp, he ordered a large portion of shrimp and gently peeled it for her. This image suddenly reminded her of Kevin and Daniel.

“Brian, can I… can I ask you a favor?” She hesitantly spoke up.

“Just say it, don’t be shy.”

“Can you help me buy some bouquets and place them on my parents’ graves and Daniel’s grave? It’s been almost a hundred days since they passed away, and I…”

“Okay.”

Brian knew his sister did not want to meet Kevin and Daniel’s family, so she did not return to visit the deceased’s grave.

Brian also visited the cemetery several times at different times, but sometimes he met Kevin, sometimes he met Venn, and sometimes he met Matthew and his wife as if they took turns going to burn incense all day.
