Hester nodded perfunctorily at Leo's angry tone. Hester played with her fingers and didn't want to care about the details in his tone.
"Well! Anyone who likes such a person will be very tired. "
Frowning, Leo turned to look at Hester, mixed feelings surging in his heart. Although it sounded like comforting him, why did he feel something strange?
But now that she had shifted her attention, there was no need to waste his breath to care about it.
However, it was because of Leo's fear of trouble that the tragedy of the next few days had long been gone.
With the company of Derek on purpose, after Hester returned home, all the documents she needed had been placed on her desk.
Hester stood beside the table, holding the documents in her hands. She felt like weeping but had no tears. Was this world completely mysterious? Who would be so stupid to scheme against his own company with others, and it was the kind of red without reservation.
"Brother Austin, are you sure it's from Derek?"
With a serious look, Austin raised his hand to tuck the hair near her ear aside, revealing his elk like eyes, which were more and more fascinating.
"I saw him send it here with my own eyes. He also said that since you don't want to go on a journey, he can do it for you. Look at these documents. If there is any shortage, he will send it to you later."
The paper flew in the air. Hester's temples twitched, and the nerves at the corners of her mouth twitched violently. She must be dreaming!
"Brother Austin, you can invite Mr. Derek to our home!"
Being taught, Austin nodded, with a gleam shining in his eyes. While lying in his own room, Leo who was about to have a rest leisurely sneezed.
Leo frowned in confusion and rubbed his nose. "It's strange. Did I catch a cold?"
The next morning, Hester sat at the table early. Looking at the handsome but cold Derek, she sighed slightly.
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
Looking at Austin with tears, Leo's heart was burning with anger. Leo clenched her fists, took a deep breath and looked at the ground dejectedly.
Or maybe it was better to tell Austin everything!
"This is an old story. It's a little bit old-fashioned."
Speaking of this, Leo sighed heavily. Leo, who always wore a cheeky smile, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it. Looking at the rising smoke, he gradually fell into deep thought.
"I know Hester's mother. She is a gentle and beautiful woman. In my memory, she always smiled happily without any prejudice against others.
At this point, Hester looked like her mother. They both smiled warmly to each other and were persistent in love. Do you remember the information I gave you? "
Austin frowned and nodded at Leo in confusion. Before Austin asked for Leo to take care of Hester, he had also investigated Hester's background, but there were very few information.
So when he saw the documents sent by Leo, he was shocked. He had only gotten a little bit of clues from Leo before, but he had never connected them together.
"What's the relationship between the two?"
"Huh!"
Leo shook off his cigarette with a sad smile. A touch of sadness flashed through his eyes.
"I'm her cousin!"
