Raising his hand to hang the tip of Hester's nose dotingly, Austin narrowed his eyes and smiled. Looking at her eyes as if she had seen a savior, Austin could guess what was on her mind.
"Leo went out for something, so it took me some time!"
"Out?"
Hester raised her eyebrows and murmured it. From the corner of her eyes, she unconsciously glanced at Derek behind her. Hester felt a little embarrassed. She had asked Derek to come here to make a match between Leo and Derek, but now it was a little difficult.
Derek took a sip of tea elegantly and put it on the table. Raising his eyes to look at Hester, Derek said in a gentle and indifferent tone, his long and thick eyelashes trembling slightly.
"It's getting late. I have something to deal with, so I have to go now."
Hester frowned in embarrassment. She was a little upset. Derek had tried his best to gather evidence for her these days, but she didn't know how to repay him.
Although Derek was domineering and cruel, Hester felt he was trustworthy after these days of contact. Besides, Leo didn't like women, and the man in front of her had a special crush on Leo, so they could have a try.
"Well, Mr. Derek, why don't you stay for dinner?"
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Hester. But I really have something important to deal with today, so I won't disturb you. Goodbye!"
Even though Derek had lived aboard for so many years, the scholar like temperament of an ancient man could be seen clearly from him.
His eyes were as light as the stars and his eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as paintings. It was really fascinating. If it weren't for the shrewd gloom mixed with years of business, he would have been a little fascinating.
Without waiting for Hester's response, Derek nodded at Austin and left. Derek's figure was straight, with a sense of alienation for no reason.
"If it goes on like this, when will they have a result?"
Looking at the rec
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.
you can think it through by yourself. But it's strange that you have been surrounded by women since you were a child, but you hate women to get close to you.
But it's okay that you hate women. Why do you have to get me involved? "
"We are brothers!"
Glancing at the furious Leo indifferently, a gleam flashed in Derek's eyes. Derek nodded and said softly.
The simple and crude answer instantly made Leo depressed. He clenched his fists and took a deep breath. Leo told himself that he couldn't defeat Derek, so he slowly calmed down.
"Are you sure she is your cousin?"
Leo opened his mouth slightly and was about to say something, but was stopped by Derek's rapid change of topic. Leo rubbed his aching temples and sighed.
"Yes, I'm sure!"
"Congratulations!"
Taking a slight glance at Leo, Derek crossed his arms over his chest leisurely. Looking at Leo's bitter face, Derek was lost in thought.
"But I don't hate her. If you really don't want to cooperate, I will pursue her!"
Leo couldn't help but punch his good friend who tried to abduct his cousin.
"Please pay attention to your words and deeds!"
Derek avoided Leo's attack easily and gracefully. Looking up at Leo's angry face, Derek smiled in a good mood.
"I don't hate her, but I'm happy for you!"
