Again, My Love - Chapter 737 Austin
“Does Brother Austin know?” Hester looked at Leo in surprise, frowning. “So even Brother Austin knows my identity, but only I don’t know?”
Leo, Sheryl and even Brother Austin now knew her identity. How stupid she was!
“Ah! Well, Austin has already known that I treat you differently. He is afraid that I will take you away and regards me as a thief! I blurted it out because I was too anxious to do anything about it.”
Thinking of the scene that he was forced by Austin, Leo felt very aggrieved. He was the elder, and Austin usually looked gentle. How could he show such a horrible expression?!
But later, he recalled carefully that when Austin went to school, he was well-known for being talented, smart, good-looking, and most importantly, he was from a good family. He was very welcomed at that time.
Hester nodded slightly. She couldn’t imagine what Brother Austin would look like when he became ferocious. Even Leo, a playboy, was afraid of him. It was rare to see him like this!
“Okay!”
Hearing that Hester obviously didn’t believe him, Leo was instantly enraged. He looked at Hester with righteous indignation, as if he had been greatly wronged.
His hands danced up and down excitedly, trying to express all the things he had been bullied.
“Hester, you can’t be confused by that man’s appearance! Austin is a cunning man. Although he looks cold, he is actually very wild inside!”
“Wild?”
Hester raised her eyebrows and looked back at Leo. She thought this word was more suitable for him! How could a dignified man like Brother Austin be that kind of person?
“I think this word is more suitable for you!”
Leo’s eyes widened as if he had been greatly stimulated. He covered his chest with both hands, as if he was about to cry. He was very sad.
“Hester, I’m y
ed. If he had known this earlier, he should have established an upright image, and now he wouldn’t be so miserable.
Hester was his cousin, but she was protecting an outsider. This was unacceptable to him.
“Hester, you are still too young.”
After saying that, Leo left with melancholy. He had to think it over. Otherwise, his cousin would really be taken away!
As time approached, Hester felt apologetic to see the people around her busy. She once wanted to give them a hand enthusiastically, but she was refused politely. She had to hide in the room alone and couldn’t go out.
Sometimes she would go to her mother’s study to stay for a while, read the books she had read, and occasionally copied her handwriting.
Jessie was in charge of the law office, so she didn’t worry about it. Her grandfather was not in good health, so she couldn’t leave now. Her mother was gone. Grandpa must be the one she felt most sorry for when she was alive!
Therefore, as her mother’s daughter, she must be filial for her!
On the other side, the banquet was almost ready. Edmund had personally chosen the style of the invitation, and all the people invited were important figures in the society.
