Chapter 266 Stay in Los Angeles?
“You can do a lot of things.”
Cierra took the little boy’s hand and walked to the side. She spoke patiently and slowly, trying to turn Will into the assistant of Jaquan and Wanda’s relationship.
Cierra could tell that Wanda liked this little guy very much.
The reason why she was willing to stay in the old house was mostly because of this little
guy.
If she could make Wanda like Will more, she could usually use the little fellow to call
Wanda out for dinner.
If she asked Jaquan to go with her, things would be different when they met more often.
Although Wanda had been by Jaquan’s side for a few years, work and private meals were always different.
They were superior and subordinate at work. Only when they contacted with each other in private could they develop the relationship. Love could eventually be cultivated.
Furthermore, Cierra could sense that Wanda was fond of Jaquan as well. It was most likely because Wanda felt that there was a huge gap between their family backgrounds. She was lacking in a sense of security so that she had rejected Jaquan.
Cierra thought. “When they communicate with each other more, I’ll let Wanda stay in the old house for a few more days and experience Sarah’s charm. It’ll be different after
all.”
Cierra was thinking happily. Now that she knew that Will also liked Wanda, she was even happier. She was quietly planning to recruit Wanda into her family.
Unlike the cheerful atmosphere in the garden, the atmosphere outside the old house
was much more awkward.
After Draven and Ryan were led out by Mrs. Taylor, Mrs. Taylor closed the fence door and left without saying a word.
Draven and Ryan looked at each other in dismay.
Then, they smiled.
“This is the first time in my life that I’ve received such treatment as a guest. Draven, being brothers with you has truly broadened my (ho r izons) !”
After Ryan opened the car door and sat down in the driver’s seat, he couldn’t help teasing Draven.
Draven looked out of the window at the gate of the Barton family’s old mansion with a gloomy look.
“I’m also very grateful to have a brother like you. Even in this state, you’re still willing to accompany me on this trip and take the risk of being beaten up.”
As the car started, the scene in front of them gradually disappeared.
Draven looked away indifferently and wiped the corner of his mouth with his hand.
It hurt a little.
But it was still not as painful as the pain in his heart.
Draven glanced out of the window and seemed to be able to see the smiling girl under the vines through the shade of the trees outside.
Draven thought. “Indeed, Cierra is happier if she is not with me.
“When she is with me, she is always angry and sad for me.
“She used to smile happily when seeing me as if I am the only one in her eyes a long
time ago.
“When on earth did she stop smiling at me?”
Draven couldn’t remember it anymore.
But he knew very well that it was because of his behavior that Cierra slowly distanced
herself from him.
It was not only because he was blindfolded, but also because he had closed his eyes.
He was the one who had lost Cierra, who had been silently accompanying him.”
As soon as he thought of it, Draven felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He closed his eyes and listened to the whistling wind outside the window. His mind was filled with Cierra’s smile.
He thought. “Why can’t she smile at me again?
“How can I make her return to my side?”
The pain began to spread because of Draven’s closing his eyes, and even his eyebrows
furrowed.
Ryan didn’t notice Draven’s strange behavior, but the car was too quiet. He wanted to talk to someone, so Ryan started talking casually.
“By the way, Draven, what happened to you when you were at Cierra’s house? Why did you get hurt after taking a bite of the cake? Was the cake drugged?”
Hearing Ryan’s words, Draven thought to himself. “What Ryan said is true.
“Cierra has drugged me in my heart.
“Because of a piece of cake, I gave all the good things that should have belonged to
Cierra to another woman.
“I even hurt Cierra again and again because of that woman.
“What a joke!
“It is just because of a cake.
“Cierra is the one who has always been by my side.
“How can I ignore it?
“Is it because Cierra’s presence was too weak, or is it because Cierra’s company is
natural that I don’t take it to heart?
“But no matter what the reason is, the past has become the past.
“Even if I want to make up for it now, it is useless.”
Instead of answering Ryan’s question, Draven opened his eyes and looked ahead. He seemed to be lost in thought.
Ryan also gave up talking about the cake. “I won’t ask about this anymore. Let’s talk about something else. You asked me to find Cierra before and said that you wanted to talk to her. Why did you leave so simply later?”
Ryan thought that according to Draven’s character, Draven would not care about what others thought at all.
Ryan thought. “Anyway, the Barton family hates us so much and we even follow Belle
and her daughter in earlier. Jaquan didn’t ask us to leave at all. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
“Therefore, even if Cierra didn’t want to see Draven and Mrs. Taylor urged us to leave,
as long as Draven didn’t want to, he could find a way to talk to Cierra.
“Especially when Draven met Cierra on the way and saw that she was under the vine
rack. What a good opportunity.
“They are all beautiful women. Even if Draven was beaten up, Cierra would not be able
to avoid him if Draven wanted to.
“But Draven didn’t.
“After being reminded again, Draven looked away and followed Mrs. Taylor obediently. There was no complaint or unwillingness in Draven’s eyes.”
Hearing Ryan’s words, Draven thought. “Why?
“What else can it be?
“Because I didn’t dare.
“How could I have the face to meet Cierra?
“I used to be ignorant of those things and arrogantly thought that Cierra was just a
child who could only please Ernest.
“And I thought Cierra didn’t have the guts. All she did was staying in the kitchen all day long to cook delicious food to coax Ernest. She didn’t even dare to raise her head.
“Now that I knew everything, how could I have the face to look for Cierra?
“Cierra was coaxing Ernest in the kitchen because she was sincere.
“Ernest Trevino was good to her, which was why Cierra had spent so much effort on food, hoping that Ernest would enjoy his appetite at the end of the year.
“Cierra always lowered her head because the Boyle family treated her badly, so she did not dare to do it, which was a way to protect herself.
“She was not a good-for-nothing. She even accompanied me secretly..
“She sent me the design drafts in the name of the Entrustment Design Studios to help me gain a foothold in the company.
“Entrustment Design.
“Entrustment.
“So that was what Cierra meant. I have just thought of it.
“I am a fool who is kept in the dark. How can I dare to expect to have a chat with Cierra?
“I feel ashamed to even meet Cierra, so I left quickly.
“Otherwise, if I stayed in front of her for a long time, I would be afraid of making Cierra
sick.”
Ryan still didn’t get Draven’s answer, so he simply stopped asking.
“Then when are we going back? You’ve already seen Cierra. As for apology, this injury can be considered an apology. Do we still have to stay in Los Angeles?”
