The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

Chapter 116: I don’t like him that much



The silver-gray Volvo soon drove off the path in the rain, and disappeared in a flash.

The black umbrella in the dark, Bruce quietly sitting in a wheelchair, deep and faraway gaze, the expression on his face can not be seen happy or angry.

“Bruce, let’s go too.” Cary tilted the umbrella slightly, and his shoulders, which were exposed outside the umbrella, were gradually wet by the rain.

Bruce let go of his hands, which had been clenched in fists, and his palms were crimson. He did not feel the pain, and gently pressed the wheelchair controls.

The town of Samuel is very small, so small that there is not even a decent hotel. The two of them got in the car and drove around a bit, then came back to the old house of The Heard family.

“Go down and open the door, and leave tomorrow after the graveside visit to Old Mr. Grant.” Bruce’s voice was low and weary: “I have the key.”

Cary turned around in shock, sure it was really him talking, and got out of the car with a sudden, inexplicable excitement, and went to the door with an umbrella.

For more than two months, Bruce hadn’t opened his mouth since Lindsey disappeared, and if he didn’t know his temper well, Cary almost thought he’d lost his tongue overnight.

The old mansion was cold, and the fresh mud marks in the yard were washed away by the rain and dripped filthily all over the place.

Bruce got out of the car and gently controlled his wheelchair to slide under the porch, his heart pumping.

He knew that Lindsey would come back to pay her respects to Old Mr. Grant, but he still couldn’t do anything, and didn’t even have the courage to see her …

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, with occasional spring thunder, a muffled drum into the eardrums.

Lindsey returned to L city with Xue Wu and stayed for a day before going to B city to meet Edward.

Lindsey took a hairpin and put her long hair up, changed into light sportswear, and left the hotel to take a taxi to the Royal Food Place.

The April weather in B City is still a little cold, Lindsey got out of the cab and habitually gathered the collar of her dress, not noticing a few people standing in front of her.

“Miss Lindsey, what a coincidence that we meet again!” Ben snorted eerily and raised his hand to block her way: “There’s a debt that needs to be settled carefully today.”

Lindsey took a step back, her eyes swept alertly and focused on Ben’s face, her lips curled in an unperturbed manner: “How are you, Mr. Ben?”

“Thanks to Bruce, it’s been great.” Ben sunken his face, skinned a gesture, leisurely retreat to the side.

Lindsey didn’t want to get into trouble, so she saw an opening and smiled and dodged out of the circle: “What kind of skill is it to bully the few with the many?”

“I’ve never been able to do that.” Ben’s lips curled up conspiratorially, applauding: “Without The Grant family to back you up, you’re scared.”

“What the hell is The Grant family?” Lindsey raised her eyebrows and sneered back, “It’s you, Ben, who’s not afraid of being thrown into the mountains to guard the warehouse again.”

The mention of this matter Ben has a belly full of fire, now old hatred and new hatred, really want to pick Lindsey’s skin. He lowered his voice and spat out two words viciously: “Do it!”

As soon as the words fell, an unmarked jeep suddenly leapt over, and before it stopped several people rushed out from above, and without saying a word they started to fight.

Lindsey leisurely retreated to the side to watch the battle, found that the people who came is also a veteran of the army, vaguely guessed that Bruce’s arrangement, chest suddenly sore and swollen.

What is this!

Deep breath, Lindsey left behind the people in the melee, and turned into the Imperial Food Place.

Pushing open the door of the elegant room, a strong smell of food came to her face, instantly tickling her cravings. After two greedy inhales, she smiled and sat over, snickering, “How did you know I like to eat this.”Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Edward was unaware of the change that happened outside the door, and when he saw her come in, he immediately diligently helped her pull out the chair, smiling away with a doting gaze, “I’m the Avatar, I calculated it by pinching my fingers.”

“That’s called a miracle worker.” Lindsey’s eyebrows arched as she sat down, half-heartedly joking: “Then tell me, can I get into graduate school.”

Edward pretended to raise his hand, pinch some calculations, the old gods said: “Yes.”

Lindsey laughed at this: “Thank you your golden words, I’ll eat first.”

“It’s all you like to eat.” Edward thoughtfully picked up the chopsticks and helped her with the dishes, “The tickets have been booked, the evening flight to Newport, trying to finish filming the remaining scenes before your sister-in-law’s due date.”

“Good.” Lindsey looked at the dishes in the bowl, and suddenly lost her appetite when she thought of Bruce.

It’s been so long since I’ve seen him, I don’t know how well he’s recovered from his injuries, whether he’s been training on time and doing acupuncture.

“What’s wrong?” Edward saw her wandering off, and was suddenly dismayed: “Miss him?”

Lindsey didn’t admit or deny it, just smiled lightly, full of despondency: “Do I act that obvious.”

“It’s obvious.” Edward held back the sour feeling and sullenly answered: “In the past two months, you have been absent-minded every time you eat, even a fool can see it.”

“Edward, am I not being a loser.” Lindsey held her chopsticks and poked at the bowl unconsciously, “I don’t like him that much, but I can’t help but care.”

Edward saw her like this, and was heartbroken and angry, the tone of his voice was inevitably a bit heavy: “Then have you ever thought that he might not want to see you at all.”

Lindsey’s heart stalled, depressed sigh, continue to eat.

Edward couldn’t let her be upset, subconsciously raised his hand, looking to fall to her shoulder and then difficult to retract. lindsey now people in their own side, but not in the heart, he can not destroy his own painstakingly created image.

To her, he is just a not too annoying big brother, that’s all.

After eating in silence, Edward had a phone call, Lindsey made a gesture towards him and got up to leave the elegant room.

The old trees in the courtyard were already sending out new buds, and the roses on both sides of the long corridor were full of pink and white flowers, basking in the warm sunlight with abandon.

Lindsey looked at the delicate flowers and was so happy that she couldn’t help but take out her phone to take pictures. When Lindsey was fascinated, the soft and charming voice of a girl came from the other side of the promenade: “Bruce, the ground of the promenade is not very flat, be careful.”

Suddenly heard the familiar name, Lindsey photographic action a beat, instinctively look in the direction of the voice.

The girl looks about the same age as herself, wearing a pink colored skirt, her features are delicate and elegant. bruce has his head down, can’t see the expression on his face, but can feel that he does not reject the girl’s concern.

Lindsey hastily withdrew her eyes and shrugged her shoulders.

At this time, Edward came out from the phone and shouted with a bright smile, “Lindsey, Professor Lee wants you to go to the beauty school.”

“Oh …” Lindsey answered, and the moment she looked up, she coldly bumped into Bruce’s dark, lonely gaze and unconsciously frowned.
