Jean looked at her, then bent down and whispered, "Don't worry, he will come."
"Is it true?" Lilia was shocked, her eyes sparkling.
Seeing the man nod, she carefully tested again. "Alone or with Leila?"
This time, footsteps came from behind, accompanied by a sneer of his brother-in-law. "Maybe with Leila!"
Just now, Andrew called and said his father was so angry he nearly had a heart attack.
The family's doctor has sent him back to his room to rest.
Mike is bleeding in his back, but he still tries his best to protect Leila.
Now everyone in the Austin family says he's gone insane for coming with Leila and chases her out.
He vowed to protect Leila to death, so Andrew felt that if Mike came to his place to save himself, he might take him in.
...
One hour later, in front of the villa gate, a taxi slowly stopped at the side of the road.
Right now, apart from Claire who was still upstairs to rest, Lilia and the others were still sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Even though they had time to chat, most of them were in a daze.
The engine sounded low. Through the railing outside the window they could see the blue taxi. Andrew walked to the window to take a look.
This area is a private area, only a few taxis go by.
Andrew watched a little for two seconds. When he saw two figures coming from the car with his own eyes, he cursed in a clear voice. "Damn, he really took Leila with him."
Lilia and the man looked at each other, the two of them also got up.
Andrew was already away from the window and headed for the entrance. He had no intention of letting Leila in.
During this time, Chris was the calmest.
He sat down to one side, looked out the window with the cellphone in his hand. Then he raised his eyebrows and muttered, "Doesn't he have his own car?"
Obviously, he was sarcastic about Mike coming here by taxi.
The Austin family's position in the capital shouldn't be that low.
Andrew had reached the entrance when he heard it, but the man only smiled and said nothing.
Mike's car has been confiscated by the Austin family.
He clearly wanted to drive away from his family's home but he ended up taking a taxi and leaving his family behind.
He really wanted to protect Leila, but if there was no money, no resources, no acquaintances, and on top of that struggling with an empty stomach, how could he do it?
Did he want to marry her? His cold and stubborn family would not give a single penny as a congratulatory gift. Whose money will they use to live on?!
This is the way Andrew and his father thought when they were communicating on the phone.
No matter what his goals were, as long as Mike wanted to be with Leila, the Austin family had cut off all support of any kind.
At this time, Mike took Leila's hand and stood three steps from the gate.
The cold wind of the capital drifted around him, and the cold aura that enveloped the city was the same as his brother's gaze.
It was clear that in just a short time, Mike understood the meaning of Andrew's cold gaze.
The scene of Mike and Leila's fingers touching each other made Andrew's eyes jolt.
"Brother." Mike opened his mouth, his tone as indifferent as before.
Andrew doesn't even look at Leila. His gaze fell on Mike's face and said, "Are you willing to come back in the end?"
Mike smiled and nodded. Leila takes small steps forward. Her voice is sweet and gentle. "Brother Andrew, I'm sorry. There is a traffic jam on the road, we made you wait a long time."
Andrew only looks at her coldly.
She wore a black jacket, with a fox hair ring in her hat pocket, the same one Mike had.
That lovely looking and gentle-hearted Leila really made it hard for people to watch out for her.
She was the same as before, her tiny figure standing beside Mike, eyes blinking with a shy touch, no irregularities in her expression or voice.
After leaving the Pangestu family, Leila did not change a bit.
At first glance, it seemed that the scandals in the capital's upper class had nothing to do with him.
Andrew found it hard to stay calm. He narrowed his eyes and gave a cold snort. "Don't call me that. Besides, we're waiting for Mike, not you!"
Leila's cheeks are slightly pale, and she slowly lowered her head, looking sad and stupid.
Seeing this, Mike frowned and tugged on his arm to pull her behind him. "Brother, I brought her here, not to let you scold her. If you don't accept her, I'll go now!"
Mike… You… Crazy dog!
"You… Stop!" When Andrew saw with his own eyes that his brother was pulling Leila around and away, he screamed and walked out on his sandals.
Mike stood there, fearlessly facing his line of sight. "What do you want, brother?"
It's hard to describe how Andrew feels right now.
He never thought his brother was such a person.
But for one second, he had the urge to kill him.
Andrew was constantly suppressing his emotions. He was standing in the cold wind in his light shirt, watching Mike's rebellious eyes. "Do you have to protect her like this?"
Mike didn't speak and released Leila's hand. Then he hugged her. "Brother, she will be my future wife. Can you understand what I'm saying?"
The two brothers knew each other well, Andrew didn't expect Mike to bring up their brotherhood.
Mike brings Leila back to get engaged, ignoring his family's feelings.
It's beyond everyone's understanding.
How ironic!
Andrew took a breath of cold air, arched his eyebrows as he saw him defending Leila. The man sneered. "I see. In the end, you are still my brother. Come with me inside."
At the end of his speech, Andrew took the lead to step back, his hands hanging from the sides clenched tightly.
He looked at Mike and Leila hugging each other. This disgusting sight is the same as watching someone chew a fly.
At this moment, Leila walks beside Mike, and her eyes are showing traces of anxiety. "Honey, will your brother also reject our relationship?"
Mike lowered his eyes, they were as soft as water. He tightened his arms and shook his head slightly. "No, he is my older brother. He won't be as difficult as my father."
"How's your back? I'll put some medicine on for you when we're inside," Leila was very worried and gently took off Mike's jacket.
"Alright, sorry for troubling you."
Mike then took her inside. During the trip, the two of them clasped their hands tighter.
Leila's face is a little complacent.
Mike stood at the entrance, looking at the familiar sight around him.
He took a silent breath, then grabbed Leila and continued their walk. When he reached the living room, he looked around calmly. After a while, he pursed his lips and calmly said, "Looks like everyone is here."
