Chapter 99 Take A Break
Chapter 99 Take A Break
"Do you think I can't afford to support your family?"
Hearing my words, a smile appeared on Brandon's face. He leaned over and looked at me with a
strange emotion in his black eyes.
"You don't have to give them money. They have already misunderstood our relationship. If you continue
to give them money, they will only need more money in the future."
I forced myself to look into Brandon's eyes and seriously explained.
Humans would always be greedy, especially people like Camren, who had never worked a day in his
life. For so many years, he had relied on me to solve all the troubles he had caused outside. Every
time, he would make things worse. Once he gets a taste of the money Brandon had, he would definitely
extort him.
Hearing my words, Brandon frowned and looked at me as if he was trying to see through me.
I looked at him nervously. I didn't know what he was thinking, but after a while, a smile suddenly
appeared on his face. "Hollie, are you helping me save money? If it were another woman, she would
definitely want me to give her more money, but you surprised me."
Although I've never heard of any of Brandon's scandals, I guessed that there must be a lot of women
who had a relationship with him. After all, the way he asked me to have a sexual relationship with him
was too casual.
Could it be that the women who had a relationship with him all asked him for a lot of money?
I was a little curious, but I didn't dare to ask. He never liked me asking about his private affairs, and I
didn't have the right to ask neither.
"I just don't want others to know my relationship with you. You said before that you wouldn't allow me to
tell anyone that we are f*ck buddies. If you keep giving me money, they will know sooner or later."
The reason why I didn't want Brandon to give me money was because it was impossible for us to be
together. I didn't want everyone to know that I had a sexual relationship with him. And if he kept giving
me money, I felt like a mistress.
"So what if your family knows? They're in the countryside. No one would know."
I thought that Brandon would understand what I said after I said that. But what I didn't expect was that
he didn't care at all. He didn't care whether my family knew the relationship between us.
"Even if you are not worried, I will still be worried. You know that it is impossible for us to be together. In
my village, the neighbours gossip a lot. If my parents told them about our relationship, how would I go
home in the future?"
If my parents told the neighbors that I had a rich boyfriend, it would be impossible for me and Brandon
to end the relationship. If someone asked, how would I answer? If we broke up, it would still affect my
reputation.
Although my body had become dirty, I was still a person who cares about other people's opinions. I
didn't want to be pointed at by others when I go home in the future.
As soon as I finished my words, Brandon fell silent. He looked at me seriously and said nothing.
I knew this man's character. It was hard for me to change his mind just because of a few words. I
sighed helplessly. I really had no confidence in changing this man's mind.
"I got it."
After a long time, he finally spoke.
He started the car again and drove without saying a word.
I looked at his side profile in a daze and couldn't react. Did he agree with me?
We didn't say anything else until we got back to the Serpent Road.
I put my luggage back ito my bedroom and was about to take a break when my phone rang.
Seeing that it was a call from Evie, I quickly picked it up. I had not contacted her for a whole day, so I
was still a little worried.
"Evie."
"Hollie, are you home?"
Evie's muffled voice came from the other end of the phone. Although I didn't hear any crying, I knew
that she was still very sad.
When I was betrayed by Vaughn, it was also a long time before I recovered. It had only been two days
since Evie was dumped. She must be really sad.
"I'm back. Evie, are you okay?"
After answering Evie's question, I asked her about her situation with some distress.
"Hollie. Come and accompany me tonight. I don't want to stay at home alone."
As she spoke, Evie couldn't hold back anymore. I could hear her sobbing over the phone. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
"Okay, wait for me. I'll go over now."
Although all I wanted to do now was lie down and sleep after a long day of travelling, I still decided to
go over to her house. I couldn't bear to leave Evie alone with her sadness.
I went into the living room. At this time, Brandon was taking out a bottle of water from the refrigerator
and drinking it. Seeing that I was going out, he immediately frowned.
"Where are you going?"
"Evie just called me and said that she wanted me to accompany her. I'm going now."
I changed my shoes at the entrance and then said to Brandon.
"You mean you won't come back tonight?"
When Brandon said this, there was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
"Evie just broke up. She is my best friend. At this time, I naturally have to accompany her."
I didn't answer Brandon's question directly, but what I meant was very obvious—I had to stay at Evie's
house tonight and wouldn't come back.
"Then what should I do? I haven't had dinner yet. Also, if you're not coming back tonight, who am I
going to have sex with?"
Brandon's beautiful brows were tightly knitted, and he looked dissatisfied.
Of course, I understood what he meant when he said that. Was that all he thought about when he
wasn't working?
"Can you just take a break tonight? Evie needs me."
At first, I wanted to roll his eyes at Brandon, but when I thought of the man's temper, I decided to have
a good talk with him.
"Evie is my best friend. I can't leave her alone. I have to accompany her tonight, no matter what you
say. Otherwise, I'm not loyal."
Brandon stared at me. I could clearly feel that he was unhappy. This man would always get angry when
things didn't go his way. His future spouse would be so tired.
"Hollie, this is the last time. You must stay here with me tomorrow night!"
After a long time, just when I thought that Brandon would not agree, he suddenly spoke.
