Chapter 32 Brian's Father
At the entrance of the hospital, when she was dragged into the car, she didn't know where Brian was going. When she was about to open the car door, Kate couldn't help but ask: "we Where.. are we going?" Though her tone was feigning to be relaxed, it still sounded a little stiff. Kate was just trying to make herself look relaxed.
"Have a meal." Said Brian lightly.
"No, thank you. I'll eat at home." Kate giggled.
"To the Li's mansion." The word "Li's Mansion" was said by Brian without any emotion.
Kate looked blankly at Brian and asked: "are you going to meet your father?"
Brian nodded.
"But I'm not ready yet." Kate said with a sad face.
"What are you going to prepare?" The prison asked coldly.
"Makeup, clothes and I haven't been mentally prepared yet!" Said Kate at once.
"That's good." Brian glanced at her.
Kate knew that he wouldn't care about her anymore, so she decisively took out her cosmetics from her bag and refined her make-up in front of the mirror.
How could she meet his parents so casually? Brian's father should not be as easy-going as his grandmother. Therefore, she must be cautious.
After making up, she put the mirror into her bag and just saw the jade bracelet in it. She carefully took it out and looked at the indifferent side face of Brian. "Here's the jade bracelet that grandma give me. Here you are," she said
With these words, she carefully handed the jade bracelet to Brian.
"Take it." Without answering, Brian said impatiently.
"But..." Kate looked at the annoyed expression on Brian's face with hesitation, but still didn't say anything. She carefully put away the bracelet.
In fact, Kate was curious about Brian's family. Why just Brian went to the hospital to visit his grandma. Didn't Brian have a sister and a brother? Or did they just diverge with Brian every time they went there? While Kate was anxiously waiting, the car finally arrived at the Li's mansion. Although it was not the first time for her to come here, she was actually more nervous than the last time since she hadn't seen his family for some reason.
As soon as they got out of the car, a housekeeper came to receive them. Brian held Kate's hand naturally. Seeing that the gate was getting closer and closer to her, Kate was more and more nervous, with her palms sweating.
They walked into the hall of Li's house. A woman in vulgar and ornate smiled gracefully at Brian and Kate when she saw them coming in.
Kate was a little stunned, but she held back her uneasiness. This woman looked familiar to her, as if she had been deeply engraved in Kate's mind.
"Brian, you haven't been home for a long time. Although work is important, home is also important." The woman said softly.
There was no answer from Brian.
"Nice to meet you. You must be the woman named Kate that Colin just talked about. I am Juliet, mother of the Brian." The woman saw Kate who was hiding behind Brian and greeted her politely. Kate was shocked. This woman was the mother of Brian. That's not right. Grandmother said that Brian's mother had died a long time ago, didn't she?
"Call her aunt. She is not my mother." Without looking at Juliet, blandly, Brian said to Kate.
Juliet's face froze, but she quickly recovered.
This time, the atmosphere froze. Kate was obedient to Brian and greeted her politely, "Hello, aunt."
"Hi." Juliet's face flashed with an obscure light.
"Welcome to Li family, sister-in-law." Sitting on the right of Juliet on sofa, Colin also said with a smile.
It was said that the second young master of the Li family had just returned from England not long ago, and cared less about fame and wealth. He had become a graceful person. "Thank you." Kate looked at Colin who with good-looking face and politely replied.
This was more difficult than Kate had imagined, because Brian didn't talk to Juliet at all. He sat in a corner of the sofa alone, and Kate didn't know what to do next him.
It was her first time to meet his parents. Could he be a little bit nicer? Kate gloomily glanced at Brian. She remembered that when he first met her mother, she helped him a lot. Wait, have they met each other's parents
"Colin, what's your father doing in the study? Ask him to come here." Juliet motioned for Colin to leave. Colin nodded and disappeared at the corner of the spiral staircase. Seeing that Colin had left, Juliet asked Kate with a smile, "Kate, have you really got your marriage certificate?"
Kate peered at Brian, but Brian didn't say anything. That guy wanted her to deal with his mother alone.
She took a deep breath and said, "yes."
"When are you going to hold your wedding ceremony?" Juliet asked again.
"I don't think we can do it this year. We haven't got the time yet." Kate replied politely.
But it was too polite to say so.
After a few simple questions, Kate didn't know what to say anymore.
Fortunately, at this time, a man came down the stairs. Juliet got up and walked up gracefully and said intimately, "dear, Brian take her wife back, how can you not care about him at all."
"Well." The man didn't care much about Juliet's intimacy, but his tone was as cold as Brian's.
Kate was nervous. She quickly put on a smile and followed the voice to greet Brian's father.
But when she saw the man, her smile disappeared and the world became illusory.
How could his father be him?
How could the world be so small?
"Kate!" The man cried out in surprise.
This man was very familiar to Kate, because he used to be her father ten years ago, and everyone called him William.
Just a few days ago, she saw him waiting at the gate of the Faraway community. She had thought that he had given up and that she would never be entangled with him again in her life. She didn't expect him to be Brian's father.
"Sorry, you got the wrong person." Kate immediately stood up and ran outside, ignoring that Brian was still in the hall.
"Kate!" William pushed Juliet aside and went after Kate. He grabbed her wrist at the door.
"Let me go!" Kate shouted and shook off his hand.
However, Kate forgot that this was their house, and even though she was good at martial arts, she was still not able to defeat the bodyguards hired by the rich family.
"Let me go!" Kate was struggling desperately. She saw that Brian was standing at the door, with his hands behind his back, just looking on what was happening. Indeed, it was just a show for everyone. It would be funny to see her struggle.
No wonder she felt that Juliet was familiar. No wonder her mother asked her to leave Brian. No wonder she always felt that Brian was very similar to him.
It turned out that all this had been predicted, but she didn't believe it.
His mother was not sure at that time, but she had a stronger feeling for William's son after being with him for so many years.
William wanted to stop those bodyguards, but he heard that Kate shouted to Brian, "Mr. Brian, help me!"
With a wave of Brian's hand, the bodyguards disappeared from the room.
Kate took this opportunity and wanted to escape again, but she heard Brian behind her saying "come back."
Hearing this, Kate stopped, but she thought of William behind her. She didn't want to see him again this life.
'Anyway, just deduct my salary!' thought Kate. Kate clenched her teeth and tried to run away, but her wrist was held by someone.
Then, Kate fell into a warm embrace. She raised her head slightly and saw the angular face of Brian.
"I don't want to see him." Tears were welling up in Kate's eyes. At this moment, he was not the son of William, but a man she could rely on.
"Let's make it clear." Brian signed slightly.
"You have known everything?" Kate looked at him in surprise.
Brian nodded slightly, "Almost."
'damn it! Am I the only one who is kept in the dark?'? Kate stared at Brian angrily.
"Why didn't you tell me? When did you know that?" Her questioning tone was beyond the scope of the subordinate to the boss.
Brian frowned and didn't reply her. He reached out for her waist and forcibly took her into the room.
The atmosphere in the room was infinitely depressed. Kate quietly sat beside Brian and did not look at William.
"Who are you?" Juliet raised her voice and broke the awkward silence.
"Who am I? I'm the one who bit and kicked by you ten years ago. Is that enough? " Not to be outdone, Kate stared at Juliet. She was not afraid. She had no ability to protect her mother ten years ago. But now, she had grown up.
But when you grew up, are you capable of doing things? You are already skilled?
Now, Kate had understood that only power and wealth are the standard for assessment, but she had nothing. If she turned against Juliet now, she would be the one to suffer. But she didn't want to think too much.
Even if Kate did not have the power to protect her mother, she would not let anyone bully her mother again, and she would take everything that her mother had suffered back.
"Are you that woman's daughter?" Juliet looked at Kate in shock
"Yes, your memory is good. It seems that there is no problem with it." Kate smiled, but every word of her had a sting which made her more powerful.
Juliet's face suddenly became ferocious. She stood up and said fiercely, "you can't enter Li family. Even if I die, I won't let you come here. Get out!"
Looking at Juliet's ferocious expression, Kate couldn't help trembling slightly. It seemed that time had passed through ten years, and she had returned to that cold winter, which she could never forget. "I want to go out for a while." Kate turned around her head to Brian and said to him.00000000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
