Chapter 584: Chapter 584 Do You Want This Man?
An extremely familiar figure appeared in the hall.
The man was tall and handsome as always. When he turned his head, his eyes were as bright as stars.
On the other hand, Yvette was in a trance.
Tonight’s illusion suddenly came true.
When their eyes met for a second, she turned around and left without hesitation.
Her mind was full of questions. "Why is he here?"
Are his legs all right...?
She didn’t see the cane just now, which meant that he was much better. He still hadn’t recovered,but he came to find her.
There was no sound of catching up behind her. Yvette stopped, thought for a while, and turned back.
The man’s expression was indifferent. He did not take the initiative to call out to her and stood still.
"Mr... Mr. Wolseley," she said.
After thinking for a while, she decided to say it out. Even if he came, she would not pester him.
Not to mention that she didn’t want to bear the guilt all the time when he hadn’t fully recovered.
She thought for a moment and said, "I thought I had made it clear enough last time."
His tone was indifferent. "I’m here for something."
She did not believe that anything would happen to him.
What was it that made a sick person come to the cold Iceland?
She was already very anxious and annoyed every day because of giving birth and her mother’s matter.
She really didn’t want to have another worry.
She felt that all these things piled up together and she was almost out of breath.
At the same time, she was very angry with this man who didn’t know how to cherish her.
Before she could figure out why she was so angry, she spoke up impulsively.
"Mr. Wolseley, you’re really annoying like this. Don’t do anything touching yourself, okay?"
After saying that, the man’s face turned obviously pale.
After a long silence, he said in a self-deprecating tone, "It’s not what you think."
She felt that he was still trying to defend himself, so she said loudly, "It’s not like that. What kind of thing is it? I’m not touched. I just feel very annoyed. Please don’t do anything degrading!"
Seeing that she was a little agitated, the man pursed his lips and stopped provoking her.
She wanted to turn around and leave, but she heard a warm call.
"Yvette."
A beautiful girl in a white fur coat trotted over. Her face was clean and pure, and she looked young and invincible.
Yvette was stunned. For a moment, she couldn’t remember that she had such a sister.
However, the girl rushed to her enthusiastically and said, "Yvette, don’t you remember me? I’m Kali Pruitt!"
Kali Pruitt...?
Yvette went through the name in her mind before she remembered who Kali Pruitt was.
Wasn’t it the blind date that Lance Wolseley used to have?
It had been a long time since they last met. This girl was so enthusiastic to her that it was a little strange.
She asked, "Why are you here?"
Kali didn’t notice the strange atmosphere and said, "I came with Lance. The "All the way" project Lance’s company is working on needs to be investigated on the spot. I..."
Kali suddenly blushed and looked very embarrassed. After a pause, she said, "I just shamelessly came with Lance."
Yvette understood the first half of her words.
The leader of Iceland had said before that he would lead Iceland to contact the international community. The first way was to build "All the way" to contact America.
This was also an international signal that American economy had attracted the attention of Iceland.
This was a piece of hot cake. Which enterprise in America didn’t want to participate in this project? They had the financial support of the country and could also win reputation for the company.
It couldn’t be better!
Therefore, it was not surprising that the Wolseley Group attached great importance to this project.
But she didn’t quite understand the last sentence.
It was said that Kali had shamelessly come with Lance ...
Yvette’s face suddenly turned red. Did she really misunderstand this man?
He didn’t come for her, but for the project and his girlfriend.
However, she thought that Lance was here for her...
There was no time more embarrassing and desperate than now.
At this time, Marcus came out from inside.
Seeing her coming back, he took the initiative to say, "Yvette, Lance is here to talk about the project. He heard about your brother, so he came with me."
Then, he introduced, "Miss Pruitt, do you remember?"
He remembered that when Kali went camping together with Yvette, he also felt that there was no need to introduce her.
Yvette could say nothing.
She had never been so mad before.
For the first time, she felt that the most direct consequence of her anxiety when she was about to give birth was that she couldn’t tell whether it was good or bad.
This man had already told her several times that he was not here for her.
But she kept thinking about herself...
Glaring at him, she wanted to run away immediately.
Kali didn’t know how to read people’s minds, so she said enthusiastically, "Yvette, I’m not here to disturb you, am I? Lance said that he wouldn’t bring me. I followed him myself..."
"No, thank you for coming to see my brother."
Yvette’s face turned from red to white. She forced a smile and said, "I’m sorry, I’m a little tired. I’ll go to rest first."
After that, she nodded to everyone. She didn’t go to see her brother either and went straight back to her room.
Kali was a little confused and turned around helplessly. "Lance, did I say something wrong?"
After a short moment of silence, the man said with gloomy eyes, "It’s none of your business. I’m not popular."
...
Back in the room.
Yvette hid her head under the quilt. The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt.
She even shouted at him not to do anything degrading, but now it seemed that she was the one who was degrading!
What would that man think? He would probably be speechless. He didn’t expect her to praise herself so much.
She buried her head in the pillow, trying to turn herself into a coward.
As long as the shell was thick enough, she could pretend that nothing had happened. Anyway, she would not see this man every day for the next few days.
It’s okay, it’s okay...
She hypnotized herself.
But then she thought, "Wasn’t it Joseph who was in the tent with Kali?"
Why was she with Lance now?
But at that time, Joseph also said that he was drunk and kissed Kali. Nothing else happened.
In that case, it was not impossible for Kali and Lance to be together.
After all, the Wolseley family had always thought highly of Kali’s background.
As she thought about it, she felt that something was wrong. Why had she been thinking about that man all the time? She had promised not to think about it anymore.
The next day.
Yvette didn’t sleep well.
The incense had fallen to the ground last night. She had forgotten about it and had not picked it up.
After she got up and had breakfast, she went to see her brother.
Marlon was lying on the bed and had just been helped to wash up. Seeing her pale face, he asked, "Didn’t you sleep well last night?"
Looking at his inquiring eyes, she said, "I haven’t been able to sleep well recently."
Marlon thought about it and agreed. It would not be easy to fall asleep before the delivery.
"Don’t think about anything else. The most important thing now is that you have a baby," he said.
She felt a little guilty. Because of her delivery, many things had to be delayed.
Marlon shared the same sentiments and understood what she was thinking at a glance. .
He said, "It has nothing to do with you. Don’t think too much. We are still cracking the "Firesand". Keith hasn’t gone out recently and has strengthened the security. We can’t get in, nor can we attack by force. We are still thinking of a way."
"Okay, I got it," said Maria.
Marlon comforted her. "There’s no hurry. It’s been so many years. I don’t think Keith will suddenly go crazy and harm our mother. It’s just that he should have been noticed our action. Let’s wait and see what he’s thinking!"
This point was quite reasonable.
She had heard from her father that Keith’s love had something to do with her mother. Naturally, he would not harm her so easily.
However, Keith was a little crazy. If they didn’t plan well and barged in, he would probably die with the people who went in.
Of course, this included their mother.
He asked casually, "Did you see Lance yesterday?"
At the thought of last night, she nodded.
Perhaps because Marlon was afraid that she would feel stressed, he deliberately explained, "He came here to talk about the "All the way" project."
"I know," said Yvette.
"Stephen told me that he confessed his love to you yesterday," he said.
Her face turned slightly red, thinking that Stephen was too sincere.
"What do you think?" Marlon asked enviously.
Before Yvette could speak, he changed his question. "You said you would think about it. Are you serious?"
"I... haven’t thought about it yet," she replied honestly.
Because she had experienced that failed relationship, she was afraid of another relationship. She thought too much and had to think about the children. No matter what, it was not appropriate.
Stephen was her brother’s favorite person, and his character could withstand the test. To be honest, he was a good choice if she only wanted to choose a stepfather for her children.
"Yvette, don’t be influenced by other thoughts. Think about yourself. The children or us are not what you should consider, understand?"
Yvett was stunned for a few seconds.
From her brother’s tone, it seemed that he did not want her to be with Stephen.
She couldn’t help but ask, "Why? Didn’t you want to matchmake me and Stephen in the past?"
Marlon raised his eyebrows. "I can’t figure out my own feelings. It’s not necessarily right to recommend him to you. Stephen is indeed a good person, but you can’t consider him because of his chracter. Can you understand what I mean?"
Yvette could say nothing.
He observed his sister’s expression.
After all, they hadn’t been together for many years, so he couldn’t guess what she was thinking.
But all the purposes were to make her happy. He thought that marriage was not as simple as completing a task or finding a father for the children.
His sister couldn’t give in.
"What I mean is..."
Marlon paused. He wanted to explain, but he was afraid that he would not be able to.
He was thinking about what his mother would say if she was here at this time.
After thinking about it, he let out a sigh and said, "What you need is a partner who can accompany you to the end of life, and an indispensable part of your life. It’s not that he is good to you and to the child."
"Be good to you and the child, our family can do this kind of thing and it can continue for a long time. When you think about it, you have to put aside these two factors. There is only one thing, and that is..."
Marlon asked, "Do you want this man?"
Yvette had never thought about this problem.
She did have a dedicated personality. First, she would consider the people she cared about the most, then her family, and finally herself.
It was like when she was considering finding a father for her children, she was purely following the standards of a good father and excluded herself.
Marlon said, "Yvette, although I don’t know much about love, I don’t think it should be like you getting along with him. It’s true that he is very good to you, but I don’t want you because he treats you well and you can’t repay him so you might as well marry him."
Because of her childhood experience, she had developed an ingratiating personality.
Even if others treated her well, she would treat them even better.
If there was no way to repay her, she might sacrifice her own thoughts to satisfy everyone.
He didn’t want her to make a decision without knowing what was on her mind.
He continued, "I just don’t want you to make do with it. Don’t be influenced by our opinions. You have to know what you think is the most important thing in your life."
Yvette didn’t expect her brother to say such a thing. It seemed that her brother had matured in an instant.
If she still didn’t understand, she would be a fool.
She knew what he meant by that.
He cared more about whether her resonated with that person than finding a good man to marry.
Yvette suddenly realized that she had fallen into a mistake. She really shouldn’t have measured the man with the idea of finding fathers for the three babies.
She nodded. "I understand what you mean, brother. I’ll think about it carefully."
Marlon’s original intention was to hope that his sister would not always think about others. The most important thing was to think more about her own feelings.
He said gently, "Anyway, no matter what decision you make, whether you are single or married, Dad and I will support you unconditionally and always give you our support."
Yvette’s eyes were a little red. She hugged him and said, "Marlon, our family will be reunited."
"Yes, of course." his gaze was firm.
...
The next day, Stephen came to visit Yvette and proposed to go out for a walk.
She agreed.
Stephen had always known how to behave properly. Before she could speak, he said, "Yvette, what I said that day was a little early and urgent. I didn’t consider that you might be in a different mood from now on. So, let’s talk about it later?"
Perhaps because he lacked the care and concern from his mother, Stephen had always been a sensitive person.
Yvette’s mood changed little, and he soon noticed it. Just like now, he felt that she was a little wavering, but he didn’t have a chance to show it.
That was why he wanted to buy as much time as possible.
This might not be a glorious move, but everyone was selfish in their emotions.
This was the only despicable thing he had ever done in his life.
