Chapter 175
Hearing what he said, I was stunned.
In my impression, Harrison would not compromise so easily. At least he should wait for me to speak first. But today, he actually said that he wanted to know, so he told me.
I coughed lightly and pretended to be calm. "To tell you the truth, I don't want to know. Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. When I leave, you are free to be with anyone you want."
"Are you sure you don't like women?" he asked.
"Ah?" I asked subconsciously.
By the time I understood what he meant, Harrison had already opened his mouth again.
"Uncle Ling has never read books. His only wish is to invest in a new investment. I don't know where he got the news that I wanted to buy your company, but he came with me. I hope he can cooperate with me."
In front of me, I could still listen calmly, but in the end, I couldn't help but mock him. "You still want to cooperate with me for no reason? It's all because you like your advantages. In addition, Abbie likes you so much. Maybe she wants to take this opportunity to turn you into a son-in-law."
There was no one who wanted to cooperate with others at will, and they were rich people. It was not that I didn't know that businessmen valued interests. Uncle Ling probably wanted to take this opportunity to make Harrison and Abbie a couple.
Thinking of this reason, I felt very uncomfortable. My nose twitched and I wanted to cry again.
"I don't need anyone to decide on my own business. If I compromise like this, do you think I can still reach my current position?" Harrison asked me.
Tears welled up in my eyes as I looked at him. I ignored him and hugged him. "Why are you telling me these things? I'm not your friend.
You don't have to tell me so much."
"Because I want you to know that you don't have to worry about it anymore," Harrison said softly.
"It's impossible for me to make peace with Abbie. Every night when I was sleeping, I would dream about the situation of that day. I didn't dare to imagine that if you hadn't arrived in time, my life would have been ruined!" Although I didn't say anything about the nightmare that entangled me, it didn't mean that I had forgotten it.
It kept hovering in my mind. This is the most terrible thing. When I dream at night, what happened that day will happen again in front of me.
No matter who it was, I couldn't accept Abbie's appearance. Even if she simply stood by Harrison's side without moving, I would still feel a sense of crisis.
Harrison gently stroked my back and comforted me in a soft voice, "I know what you said, so I'll explain it to you. Is there any comfort in your heart?"
I shook my head gently and pushed him away. "Since you know I'm sad, why are you so intimate with her?"
"I'm not close to her." Harrison smiled helplessly. "That's just the basic etiquette of work."
Looking at him, I said disdainfully, "My eyes are not blind. I can tell if they are basic etiquette."
I've been at work for quite some time, and I'm not an ignorant child. How could I not notice this? Even if it's the basic etiquette of work, do you need them to be so close to me? Do you need Abbie to look at me proudly?
Feeling that I couldn't stop, I pushed Harrison away and was about to get out of bed. But before I could sit up, someone pulled me down again. "What are you doing?"
"When I saw you and Louie closing the door of the lounge, and then leaving together, I felt the same sadness in my heart. That's why I used Abbie's small thoughts to irritate you. Are you satisfied with this explanation?" Harrison finished his sentence in one breath.
After listening to his explanation, I was in a daze.
What was this called? Could it be the legendary jealousy? In other words, Harrison was very unhappy to see me with Louie, so he chose to stand with Abbie in order to annoy me?
Gradually, I found it hard to believe. Harrison deliberately made me angry because of jealousy. I had never thought about it before. When it really happened, I had anPlease heart.
'Are you happy to hear such an explanation?" Harrison asked me with a smile.
I looked at him and confirmed again, "Did you deliberately make me angry with Abbie because I was jealous of Louie?"
"Ahem!" Harrison coughed a few times, and an unnatural blush appeared on his face. "That's almost what I mean, so can you tell me now?"
"What is it?" I asked, puzzled.
"What were you and him doing at that time?" Harrison looked helpless. He wanted to get angry but held back his anger. He looked very cute.
Taking this opportunity, I simply told him about Callen's harassment of me, my property ownership certificate, and my past innocence. After I said it, I felt relaxed.
Harrison remained silent throughout the whole process. He didn't say a word. After I finished speaking for a long time, he didn't say anything. I couldn't help but wonder if he was scared or if he was disgusted by what happened between the three of us. In this way, my heart was also perturbed that he didn't speak.
I waited for a long time, but he didn't say anything. I decided to take the initiative to ask, "I didn't want you to know these things at the beginning. I'm not afraid that you will know what will happen if you know. I know that if you know it, you will hate me or the relationship between us."
"I know that most people don't like this kind of triangle relationship. After all, a married woman is associated with her ex-husband. It is unacceptable to anyone else. If you don't like it, you can tell me. I will definitely disappear from your sight immediately."
When I said this, I didn't shed tears with great patience and kept smiling.
Harrison looked at me and said in a flat tone, "What happened to the property ownership certificate?" NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
"I don't know anything about this. I didn't see the agreement my mother and Callen signed a long time ago until she informed me of the demolition of the community and went home to look for information," I explained.
With that, I told him everything I knew. As for whether Harrison believed me or not, it was beyond my control.
I hoped in my heart that Harrison would believe me, but I also knew that ordinary people would not believe it. After all, my mother would not give Callen the property ownership certificate for no reason. There must be something hidden in it. According to normal thinking, I should know the truth best.
After hearing what I said, Harrison let go of his hand and lay flat on the bed, frowning. It seemed that he was thinking about something. His body, which had just been warmed up, soon cooled down, but it was far less cold than my heart.
Because in my heart, Harrison's response was equivalent to rejecting me.
The first thing I should consider is how I should leave this place in order to not be so embarrassing...
