Chapter 495 - 77: To Go Shopping

Diana walked into the store and picked out what she needed. She chose the strongest hammer and pliers and the best nails and lock.

When she got back to the car, Ken asked hesitantly, "Miss Anderson, why did you want those things?"

Diana raised her eyebrows and replied, "Because I need them."

Ken nodded and asked no further questions.

Diana was happy with her new plan.

When they arrived at the villa, Diana ran straight to her room. She looked carefully at the lock on the door then used the hammer to smash it.

The servants were astonished.

"Miss Anderson, what are you doing?" a servant walked to her and asked hesitantly.

Diana held the hammer and smiled. "This lock is not sturdy enough, so I am going to change it."

"You can call the locksmith, Miss Anderson, you needn't do it by yourself."

"Well, if you want something done right, do it yourself," Diana answered.

The servants nodded. They were still confused, but this was not the first strange thing Diana had done.

After changing the lock, Diana checked the new lock carefully to make sure Brian couldn't break into her room again and touch her things. She was satisfied with her work.

Slapping her hands together gleefully, Diana lay down on her soft bed.

Brian was still not back, which was unusual. But Diana didn't care too much where he was. In fact, it was better if he didn't want some back as she knew well that she would suffer for changing the lock.

Diana didn't realize that Brian was actually the one suffering at that moment, as he was being scolded by his father over at the family residence.

There was a pile of photos on the table in front of Simon and Brian; there were photos of Diana and Kyle, plus some of Brian taking Diana to school.

These photos were clearly taken illicitly. But the photographer was very skilled as he caught intimate details, and every one of the photos was clear.

"How can you ask your people to follow Diana? Are you so bored in your old age that you have to have people followed?"

The photos of Diana and Kyle made Brian furious. But he knew that someone was trying to alienate him from Diana by doing this. So, he ignored that issue for now and chose to ask his father why he had these photos.

"Are you insane? I am your father! Is this the way you speak to your father?"

Brian smiled coldly. "Is stalking his own son the correct behavior for a father?"

Simon sneered at him and uttered, "I didn't have these photos taken. Someone sent them anonymously to me. I wish it had been me that arranged the pictures. If anyone else finds these photos, you and Kyle will be humiliated. Two men were born in the William family, both in love with the same college student. How embarrassing!"

"If you cared what people said about me, why did you not behave when you were young? What kind of role model do I have?" Brian shouted back.

"You are childish!" Simon was incensed and threw the photos on the floor.

"You are always annoyed at me. This is just an excuse to let out your anger. It would be a piece of cake for you to investigate who took these photos, and then you could bribe them to stay quiet. So why do you come to ask me? You just want to control my life!"

Brian's words irritated Simon, but he couldn't deny them; it made sense.

Brian felt it was pointless to stay arguing with his father, so he put his hands in his pockets and turned to the door.

"Stop!" Simon shouted.

Brian didn't look back at him and stormed out.

"Fine!" Simon yelled. "You handle your problem! But I don't want to see these pictures in public!"

Brian was angry right now. He wanted to see Diana and figure out what had happened. It didn't matter who had taken the photos, but it did matter what had happened between Diana and Kyle.

Sitting in his car, Brian put on his sunglasses and turned up the music. Then he made a call to Ken.

He briefly told Ken what Simon said to him and added, "I expect you to find out who was responsible for those photos. If someone did it to ruin my relationship with Diana, they would pay."

Ken could tell it was a serious matter. He promised Brian he would get to the bottom of it, then called his staff to start working the case.

"And one more thing Ken, is Diana at home?"

Ken was stunned and answered immediately, "Yes, Miss Anderson is in her room."

"OK, keep an eye on her. Do not let her run away. I have some questions for her."

Hearing Brian's tone, Ken felt sorry for Diana; he knew she was in trouble again.

As for Simon, after his talk with Brian, he was so furious that he asked his staff to call Kyle to see him.

Kyle was confused as to why Simon wanted to see him, though he guessed that it must be related to Brian.

Arriving at Simon's luxurious villa, Kyle looked around in awe. Although he'd been there before, it was still a breathtakingly beautiful place.

Walking into the living room, Kyle was greeted warmly by the butler. Whilst he was grateful for the kindness, he also knew that behind the warmth was often something more sinister.

Kyle waited in the living room for a while before being invited to go up to the study.

Upon entering the study room, Kyle approached Simon, who had his back to the door. Kyle felt stressed and said, "Mr. William, what can I help you with?"

Hearing Kyle's gentle voice, Simon felt happier. He turned to Kyle with a serious look and pointed at the photos on the table. "Come here and look at these."

Kyle walked over and was clearly surprised by what he saw.

"Mr. William, what are…?"

Simon glanced at Kyle and uttered, "You are smart. So, I will just say it."

Kyle waited anxiously for his words.

"Yes, some might say this girl is beautiful. However, her family is too ordinary; she is too ordinary! It's okay if you and Brian want to have some fun but never let her interfere with the family. Understand?"
