Chapter 168 Not Obedient
Cierra hummed in agreement and gave a simple explanation. “Bruno, you must have seen my situation on the internet. I’ve found my family and I am divorced. Naturally, I have to move back to my home. My family isn’t settling down in New York and I’ve dealt with most of the matters here. There’s no need for me to stay any longer.”
As for where she was going, Cierra didn’t say much. On the one hand, there was no need. She was not very familiar with Bruno. On the other hand, she didn’t want the people she knew to have anything to do with her future. Although Bruno was just a passerby in her memory, he had something to do with Cierra’s past.
She didn’t want to recall this failed love anymore, nor did she want to recall those people in the
past.
She clearly knew that she was a little stubborn in some aspects. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have focused on Draven for so many years. There were many rich and good-looking young men in this circle. Even if she was willing to degenerate and become a pawn of the Boyle family, Cierra could always find someone who was not bad.
Perhaps he wouldn’t love Cierra to the point where he was willing to do anything for her and would treat her with respect like a guest, but at least Cierra was sure that he wouldn’t kick her out of his life like Draven did.
But she had no choice. She only loved Draven.
There was no way for her to completely let it go, but restraining herself in the past was too stup*d. That was why she chose to escape, hide everything in the past, pretend to reconcile with the past,
and walk on that road of the future.
Others thought that her divorce was to stop the losses in time, because she escaped from the wrong trap due to injury. Her brothers thought so, and sometimes Cierra herself believed it.
But in fact, she was just following the right path rationally. In her heart, she had been crazily shouting that Draven should have been hers, and she wanted to question herself. “I am his wife. Why should I leave him?”
But after all, humans were not beasts that obeyed their nature.
Cierra was willing to endure the pain and grievances to be with Draven.
Sometimes, Cierra wondered if she was a masochist. She still liked Draven even in this state, but how could she control her feelings? She could only endure and control her behavior, but she could
not control herself not to love him.
Fortunately, her rationality had the upper hand. She was willing to pretend to let go of the past as long as others could not see it. Some people would even praise her for being free and easy.
For example, Bruno, who was sitting opposite her.
Bruno paid great attention to social etiquette and did not ask much about Cierra’s current family situation. He just nodded and said, “That’s good. I think your biological parents treat you well. I wish you a good future.”
Cierra thought. “Yes, it’s pretty good.
‘For me, I have found my biological parents and got rid of the bad reputation of being emotional., For Draven, he has also found his true love and gotten rid of the burden, Cierra.
“Both of us are fine.
“It will definitely get better in the future.”
Cierra smiled at Bruno. “Thank you.”
She glanced at her phone and got up from the chair. “I’m going to pick up Adam and take a look at the kitchen. Please sit here alone for a while.”
Bruno was a gentleman. He shook his head and said, “It doesn’t matter. Sorry to disturbed you. Go
ahead with your work.”
Cierra nodded and left. She kept a faint smile on her face the entire time she left the private room..
She realized that it was actually very easy to talk to Bruno. There was no need to think about many things. Although it was the first time for her to get along with Bruno at such a distance, Bruno had a sense of propriety. Except that it was a little abrupt when he proposed to send her back to the city, he did not make her feel any discomfort in other aspects.
No wonder he could become the head of the West family at such a young age. After all, he was
different from Draven. There was no illegitimate child in the Trevino family who wanted to
compete with Draven. The West family was in a mess.
Putting aside the prejudice, Cierra was willing to befriend Bruno.
Unfortunately, some people were destined to be passers-by.
After showing Adam the way, Cierra went to the kitchen. She had decided to leave in two days, so she had to inform Freddy officially.
She had forgotten about it since she suffered a lot. After she had talked to someone, she felt much better. It was time for her to face her failure. And she had agreed to give Bruno a VIP card. She couldn’t break her promise. Anyway, there was no discount for that card.
Cierra was very active. After making up her mind, she quickly said goodbye to Freddy.
During this period of time, Cierra had been taken care of by Freddy and was introduced to Dr. Charles. Cierra had already had the opportunity that most people in the world would not have, so
there was no need to complain.
Cierra thought. “People should be contented and happy.
“It is a pity that I don’t have the ability to catch Dr. Charles’ stomach.”
However, Cierra had only half of her luck, such as being the daughter of the Boyle family, or
marrying Draven as she wished. It was the same this time, and there was nothing to complain about
after that.
However, Freddy was surprised. He was no longer in the mood to check on the apprentices in the kitchen. He looked at Cierra as if the father was going to send his most beloved daughter away.
“Why are you so fast? Didn’t you say that it would be next week? Look, 1, I was going to cook a few dishes for you on the day you left. You suddenly made me not know what to make.”
Freddy didn’t have a good life in his life. In the early years, his wife had a difficult labor and passed away. He had taken a group of children with his father. Unfortunately, a flood in New York decades ago had washed his son away. After that, his father had also passed away, leaving Freddy alone to pick up this group of boys to support L’Opera Restaurant.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
His attitude toward Cierra was naturally different.
Cierra was not the child he and his father had raised all these years. But they had supported each other all these years. Cierra gave money to L’Opera Restaurant, and the West family gave Cierra warmth that the Boyle family didn’t give her. In addition, with Cierra’s special status, it was enough to make Freddy feel complicated.
At first, Freddy thought that if the Boyle family really didn’t want Cierra, he would let her be registered as a member of the Mayo family. Even if she couldn’t get married, the Mayo family was willing to support Cierra for the rest of her life.
Now she was living a better life. She had found her family who really loved her, but she was leaving
New York.
Thinking of this, Freddy felt sadder, and his eyes turned red.
“Don’t be like this. It’s not like I won’t come back. You weren’t like this even when I wanted to go abroad back then.” Seeing this, the tip of Cierra’s nose twitched, but she held back her tears and pulled Freddy back with a smile. “I’m just going home. It’s in Los Angeles. It will take just two hours
since the transportation is developed. If I miss you, I’ll come back to see you immediately.”
The older the old man was, the more he valued this friendship. Freddy immediately looked up at Cierra and said, “Do you really want to come back to see me? Every time you called me abroad, you were asking me about the menu. You only called me when you wanted to eat that dish and forgot how to cook it. It is impossible for you to miss me.
Cierra didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I can give you the address of my house. If I break my promise one day, you can catch me according to the address. What do you think? Or why don’t you just
come with me? Anyway, L’Opera Restaurant will be fine as long as Layton is here. At your age, it’s time for you to find a place to retire.”
Freddy seriously considered Cierra’s suggestion. “If you don’t mind, I can buy an apartment in Los
Angeles.”
In his heart, he regarded Cierra as his daughter. Over the years, the business of L’Opera Restaurant had been very good, and he could even go to Washington D.C. to buy a house with the money he earned. It was naturally not bad to go to Los Angeles.
Of course, Cierra didn’t mind. “How can I let you spend money? If you want to live there, I can
arrange it.”
“No, no.” Freddy waved his hand and suddenly thought of something. He raised his head and said, “By the way, why are you in such a hurry to go back? Did that old bas*ard give in?”
