Chapter 34 I Don't Like Acting
Then William stood up and left. Kate stared at his back as he disappeared from the corner. Her heart was filled with a complicated emotion that she could not solve.
She never thought that she would meet William in this way again, and legally, she was his daughter-in-law. Kate couldn't believe what would happen if her mother found out about this. Or Maybe her mother had already had a hunch about it.
After William left, she was the only one left in the living room, huddling alone on the sofa. As she took out the jade bracelet from her bag, the exquisite jade bracelet shone with a faint green light under the sunlight.
After she fiddled with the bracelet for a while, Kate suddenly felt a little heavy in her heart. If she divorced with Brian, would all these burdens disappear, and could she return to the simple and worry free days before.
With so many things happened recently, she felt like in a dream. Her feet floated in the air, unable to touch the ground.
A man's voice came from behind her. Kate turned her head to look at the direction of the voice, and found that Brian had already sat next to her.
"You like this jade bracelet very much." Said Brian.
"Of course not." Kate put the bracelet back to her bag quickly.
Brian reached out her hands and held her naturally. Kate was stiff. Thinking of William, she felt embarrassed. Although she didn't relate to Brian when she was a child, she still felt uncomfortable when thinking of that they once had the same father.
"Don't pretend, there's no one in the room." Kate struggled for a while and giggled.
Hearing this, the man's handsome face showed a trace of displeasure. He turned to Kate coldly and said, "in your eyes, we are just acting?"
"Yes..." Kate had meant to answer positively, but she swallowed the following words when she saw the somber look on Brian's face. Shaking her head, she didn't dare to go against Brian who was more horrible than William.
After a while, Kate heard from Brian, "I don't like acting."
Hearing this, Kate's heart hitched. She had an inexplicable feeling as if she had found a outlet. What did he mean? He said he didn't like acting, so what he had done to her was not real at all.
If they were not acting, then what was it?
Kate didn't dare to think further.
Besides, it seemed that Brian had known William was her father for a long time. What was going on? Did he investigate her?
"When did you know about this?" Kate asked cautiously with her head down and her heart beating wildly.
It was not good to be pried on.
"I met your mother ten years ago." Instead of giving a direct answer to Kate's question, the man answered himself.
Kate was shocked and stared at him.
"In my father's office." He said these words with understatement. Kate's heart beat fast.
"Don't be so surprised. I didn't tell you that your mother must have known that William had a family." Brian said casually, glancing at Kate who was wearing a serious look on her face.
It was in a mess. What happened that year? Did her mother hide something from her too?
It suddenly occurred to Kate that before Juliet came back home, her mother often showed some incomprehensible expressions. Did her mother know something at that time.
As a result, it made sense. Her mother was shocked when she first saw Brian, and then had a complicated emotion towards him. After all, it had been ten years since their parents got married. Besides, Brian is not William, so it was hard for her to recognize who Brian was at that time. Mary was just a little suspicious.
Maybe until now, mom didn't know that Brian was the son of William. She didn't want her to be with Brian, just not because she didn't want to see Brian's face which was a bit like William.
Kate scratched her hair restlessly. She was disturbed by these strange things.
Kate, who was on the verge of madness, suddenly looked at Brian and asked, "boss, what do you think of this matter?"
After that, Kate was stunned by her words. She was greatly affected by the Internet, but the CEO was not Holmes...
With his eyes cocked, Brian replied, "Miss Kate, I think..."
Hearing what Brian said, Kate was petrified. It seemed that Mr. Brian had some sense of humor. But don't you think this is not in line with your exalted identity?
After that, Brian took her bag and held her hand and stood up. In a daze, Kate looked at his action with a confused expression on her face.
"Are we leaving?" Kate was very excited when she thought of this.
"Go back to my room." The word uttered from Brian break the dream completely. Kate's head was down immediately and stared at her shoes depressingly.
"I want to go home." Kate said gloomily.
"Tell me the reason."
"I don't think it's appropriate. We, we aren't..." we are not real lovers. As a girl, how could she stay at his home so casually?
Without stopping, Brian asked her unpleasantly," not what?"
Kate raised her head and looked at him, but she could only see his back, which was straight black. She had to raise Brian's head so that she could see the back side of Brian. She couldn't help but sigh that he was really so tall.
Upon hearing the question of Brian, Kate stopped talking. Mr. Brian was very angry and she'd better stay quiet.
Kate walked silently followed Brian all the way back to their bedroom. This room was still very familiar to Kate because this was where she slept when she came to the Li mansion last time. After glancing at the big bed in the middle, Kate couldn't help recalling the scene at that time.
Blushing, she walked to the window and pretended to enjoy the view. The wind blew away the heat on her face.
What Brian said came to her mind again. He said he didn't like acting.
Not knowing why, her low and depressed heart was suddenly tinged with pleasure by what he said.
Though Kate had never been in love before, she also saw someone else in love, which was a little like their current state.
'does Mr. Brian love me too?
As soon as this idea came up, Kate tried her best to put it down. How could it be possible? Mr. Brian must have thought that she was funny, so he played with her. How could he have a crush on her.
However
He now keeps pestering Kate.
"By the way, I have work to do." It suddenly occurred to Kate that there was a task assigned to her by Vicky. She immediately forgot everything else, took the contract out of her bag and read it on her bed. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Brian walked out of the changing room. He had changed to the black suit. The dry shirt made his figure look even more imposing.
Kate looked away at once and her heart beat faster.
Feeling a little strange, she moved to the table beside the bed with the contract in her arms.
When she was about to write, she found that she had forgotten to take her pen out. She had just thought of taking her bag from the other side of the bed, but she saw Mr. Brian sitting next to her bag overbearingly. She hesitated for a moment and gently said, "Mr. Brian, can you help me to take the pen in my bag?"
Putting down the expensive tablet computer, Brian opened Kate's bag, frowned and took out a diary.
That was Kate's baby. It was the most humiliating thing in the world. All of a sudden, her blood was boiling.
The table was not far from the bed. Kate's heart was tightened and she could not help shouting, "give me back!" Then she threw herself into the direction of Brian.
With an unreadable smile, Brian raised the diary with one hand, and held Kate's waist with the other, trying to make her unable to stand up. Kate didn't notice how intimate she was with Brian. She just wanted to take her diary back.
Unable to stand up, she had to stretch her hand out, while her eyes were rolling along the diary.
"Give it back to me!" After a while, Kate was out of breath and shouted at him, but her diary was still in Brian's hand.
The calm Brian contrasted sharply with confounded Kate.
Kate looked at Brian and gnashed her teeth. Then she seemed to remember something and gave a sly smile. Then, Kate put her hands on the shoulder of Brian and pressed he against the bed. "You're still too young to contend with me!" Kate's eyes got red and her reason had been thrown to a corner, then she started the queen mode.
The corners of Brian's mouth were slightly upward.
Seeing his smile, Kate, who was about to reach out to grab her notebook, froze and her queen aura was frightened by this faint smile. She slowly got her consciousness.
Somehow she felt there was a weird smile on Brian's face.
When she came back to her senses, she suddenly found that she had already flung herself on the CEO's waist, and she was sitting very domineeringly in such a posture She wanted to hide her face and go away.
"Very active." Said Brian, and there was a smile in his eyes.
Her face flushed from red to neck.
"That's my diary." Kate tried to be brave and said.
"Yes." Brian nodded, indicating that he knew it was a diary.
"I just want my diary back. That's all." Kate explained.
While speaking, Kate was still staring at the diary to show that she really had no other meanings.
After glancing at the diary for a moment, Brian turned around to look at Kate. He pointed at his own face with a touch of flirtation in his dark eyes.
Kate understood what he meant. She mumbled for a while, but then she thought that she had already had intimate contact with him before, so she got down to him with the determination that as if she would definitely die.00☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
