Chapter 58: Will you break up with my brother?
After leaving the cafe Cecilia Glendon went straight home, her face as heavy as ice, her eyebrows furrowed.
This meeting with Jamie Hall today, the battle between the two of them even if the battle is started.
Jamie Hall is not a big person, she naturally will not let Cecilia Glendon, plus there is a Gail Brown around at any time to fan the flames, Cecilia Glendon feel that her situation may be more and more difficult in the future.
What can be done, this is all her own creation cause.
If she hadn’t taken the elevator with Abbott Benson at the hotel, maybe there wouldn’t be so many things going on now.
But in this world, there are no ifs.
Cecilia Glendon with a sullen mood out of the elevator, is ready to take out the key to open the door, when suddenly there is a soft sound of opening the door behind her.
When she heard this business, she subconsciously turned her head to look, thinking that Abbott Benson had returned, but instead she saw Helen Benson standing in the doorway.
Helen Benson was obviously surprised to see her, but after the surprise, her face returned to expressionless: “You live here too?”
Cecilia Glendon put away her surprise and nodded, “Yes.”
Helen Benson hugged her arms and looked at her suspiciously, “You didn’t come here because my brother lives here, did you?”
Whoever knew that Cecilia Glendon lived across the street from Abbott Benson’s house would probably have thought that, so it makes sense that Helen Benson would ask that.
“No.” Cecilia Glendon denied, “I didn’t know he lived here until after I moved in.”
Helen Benson doesn’t say anything, but just curls her lips lightly: “It’s convenient that you live so close to each other.” The mockery is full of meaning.
Helen Benson is a young girl in her early twenties, but her words can sometimes be more hurtful than those of other adults.
Cecilia Glendon, who is many years younger than she is, doesn’t take it personally: “Whatever you think.” After leaving these words, she opened the door to her house and walked in, closing it behind her, leaving Helen Benson outside.
When she returned to her own home, Cecilia Glendon let out a long sigh of relief.
She stood in the foyer for a while, waiting until her legs and feet were starting to get sore before she slowly walked inside.
It was already dark and she hadn’t eaten, so she was about to go to the kitchen to make herself something to eat when there was a knock at the door.
Cecilia Glendon froze, who could it be at this hour?
She went to the foyer and looked through the cat’s eye to see Helen Benson.
What was Helen Benson doing here? Did she want to say the same thing as Jamie Hall? And to ask her what her relationship with Abbott Benson was?
Although Cecilia Glendon’s mind was irritated and she didn’t want to open the door, the person knocking outside was Helen Benson.
“What do you want?”
“Do you have food at home?” The first thing Helen Benson said was this, with a sweet smile on her face, unlike the one she had before.
Cecilia Glendon’s mouth twitched at the corners, not knowing what to say.
The two siblings, Helen Benson and Abbott Benson, both love to come to her for dinner?
“Yes …” Cecilia Glendon looked her up and down for a moment, “Are you used to eating?”
It’s not a mockery, but simply a question.
Helen Benson, since she is Abbott Benson’s sister, must have grown up eating from a brocade and a mountain of food.
“Of course.” Helen Benson nodded, and did not ask Cecilia Glendon to invite her, directly among the walk in, “as long as it is food. I’m not a picky eater.”
Cecilia Glendon watched helplessly as she sauntered into her home, reaching out to close the door behind her.
“Make yourself at home, I’ll make dinner.” Cecilia Glendon said.
“Good.” Helen Benson nodded, obedient.
Cecilia Glendon didn’t ask any more questions and went straight to the kitchen.
While she was cooking, Helen Benson wandered around the living room, looking here and there. Although the place was not as big as the next door, it was so warmly decorated that people didn’t want to leave once they came in.
After Helen Benson watched for a while, Abbott Benson’s phone call came.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
“Brother, what’s up?”
“Have you eaten yet?” Abbott Benson asked.
“Not yet, I’ll eat later.” Helen Benson glanced in the direction of the kitchen, where Cecilia Glendon was still cooking.
“It’s late, don’t go out to eat, order take-out.” Abbott Benson admonished.
The original intention was to let Helen Benson go back to school as soon as possible, but she refused to go back to school, said it was a holiday, to stay in Greenwich, and refused to go back to the Benson family, so she had to live in Abbott Benson’s side of the house.
Abbott Benson is busy with company matters these days and comes back very late, so meals are also eaten by Helen Benson alone.
“There’s no need to order take-out.” Helen Benson walked to the sofa and sat down, “I’m at your neighbor’s house.”
“Neighbor?” Abbott Benson froze, and then remembered who his neighbor lived, he couldn’t help but laugh lightly, “She let you in?”
“Why wouldn’t you let me in, I’m your sister.” Helen Benson said, “Brother, since you must be with her, I can’t stop it, so I’ll help you examine it.”
“Don’t be ridiculous.” Hearing her words, Abbott Benson’s voice became a bit more stern.
Helen Benson smiled gently, “Don’t worry, I won’t do anything.”
That’s what she said, but her smile had a touch of cunning in it.
After hanging up the phone, Helen Benson saw Cecilia Glendon’s drawing board on the coffee table, and after a moment’s hesitation, she raised her voice and asked Cecilia Glendon in the kitchen, “Can I see your drawing board?”
“Yes.” Cecilia Glendon replied from the kitchen.
Only then did Helen Benson reach for it and flip it open.
The design on the paper jumped out at her, and Helen Benson’s eyes lit up the moment she saw it. Although she couldn’t read the lines of the design, she could tell from every little detail that Cecilia Glendon was really talented in this area.
Although only sketches are needed now, Helen Benson feels that the clothes on these designs will definitely become a big hit if they are really made.
The clothes I usually wear are very tasteful, so Helen Benson suddenly felt that Cecilia Glendon is not as bad as she thought.
Compared to Jamie Hall, Cecilia Glendon although not her family history, but Abbott Benson married a woman is not to see how the other side of the family conditions, and Cecilia Glendon has a studio of its own, doing a good job, and is a well-known designer, also do not have to Jamie Hall worse to where.
The only shortcoming … is that Cecilia Glendon has been divorced.
Helen Benson understands her grandfather’s traditional thinking, as long as he is still around, no matter how much Abbott Benson likes Cecilia Glendon, Cecilia Glendon is not possible to marry into the Benson family.
Thinking of this, Helen Benson put the drawing board down, then got up and walked to the kitchen. She leaned against the door frame and looked at the busy figure of Cecilia Glendon inside, and couldn’t help but say, “Eh.”
Cecilia Glendon looked back at Helen Benson strangely, “What’s wrong?”
Helen Benson bit her lower lip, the tip of her eyebrows frowned slightly, as if there was some hesitation, but finally opened her mouth and asked, “If, my grandfather doesn’t like you, will you break up with my brother?”
