Chapter 1049 Joanne, Shall We Try for Something Childish

Wesley had a fair understanding of Rowdy and the way he operated.

He could rationally infer that Rowdy tSimon Yuna about his plan for the sole purpose of putting her to the test.

On the day of Gavin and Wendy's wedding, as long as he was so heavily guarded that Rowdy coul not even get within an inch of him, Rowdy would inevitably suspect that Yuna had leaked the news.

However, after her return to the Kent family, Yuna had been living under Rowdy's eagle-eyed surveillance. She could not have been the one to reveal the news to him.

Therefore, Rowdy would thus be very certain that there was someone working undercover in the Kent family.

The one who was helping Yuna.

A few days ago, Rowdy sent Kim to Canada. There was a possibility that he had his suspicions about Kim, so he sent Kim away and then undertook an investigation.

Once Rowdy was sure that the reason for Yuna's return to the Kent family was not that simple, he could basically confirm that Kim was working undercover and helping Yuna.

Kim must also be very aware that he himself would be in danger after telling him the news.

However, Kim still decided to take this risk for the sake of his safety.

Wesley had to take the lives of Yuna and Kim into serious consideration.

Therefore, it was not difficult to answer Brian's question.

Wesley looked at Brian. With an indifferent look, he said firmly in a low voice, without hesitation, "I will pretend that I don't know anything."

Brian knew why Wesley made such a choice.

Ten years ago, he decided to befriend Wesley because he saw his human nature beneath his cold exterior.

Brian had always known that Wesley was not a kind person, someone who would never show any mercy to his enemies.

But Wesley would never do anything against humanity unlike Rowdy.

It turned out that he made the right decision to be friends with Wesley.

After so many years, Wesley was still the same. Just like now, even if he knew that he would be in danger, he was still willing to take the risk all for the sake of Kim and Yuna's safety.

Wesley's expression slowly turned cold and he emphasized, "On the day of Gavin and Wendy's wedding, I won't bring more people with me. In addition, don't try to help me out. I need to stay the same as usual."

Only when he stayed the same as usual would Rowdy's doubts about Yuna be dispelled.

Brian looked at Wesley and his eyes narrowed. "Are you really not afraid of danger?"

"If you mean the kind of deadly danger," Wesley said directly, "of course I am afraid."

Brian was even more confused. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Since you're afraid, why don't you secretly strengthen your defense when you know it's dangerous? We definitely have the ability to hide this from Rowdy."

"No need." Wesley smirked and there was a hint of disdain in his eyes. "If Rowdy will really do it, I'll deal with him."

Brian knew what Wesley meant.

Although Wesley was afraid of danger, he was not afraid of Rowdy.

In fact, even the strongest person would be afraid of any life-threatening danger.

However, if the person who posed a threat was your enemy, your fear would be overshadowed by your desire to challenge it.

If Rowdy really took action, Wesley planned to prove to Rowdy that Rowdy could not do anything to him and that he was more qualified to have Yuna than Rowdy.

Joanne settled the two babies and went downstairs leisurely. She saw that all the soup and dishes had been placed on the table, but Brian and Wesley were still in the living room.

She said to them, "Let's eat."

Brian and Wesley tacitly did not mention the call from Kim to Joanne, and they went to the dining room obediently.

After dinner, Wesley went upstairs to have a look at the two babies. He did not stay too long and soon left Prime Villas.

Brian followed Wesley out, watched his car drive away, and returned to the living room.

Iris was making a phone call to Dolly in the living room.

Dolly had always felt that there must be someone in the world who could cure Gavin. She took Gavin's medical records all over the world and visited every hospital in the hope of finding a cure for Gavin.

After many visits, Dolly had gained something from time to time, but she failed to find a way to completely cure Gavin.

Iris had always been against it.

Firstly, it was too tiring.

Secondly, Iris thought that since Brian and Wesley had found the best doctors, it would be better for Dolly to return to Arlington and accompany Gavin than to run around aimlessly.

Sometimes, for a patient, the company and support of his family was more important than any medicine in the world.

Dolly replied that it was enough for Gavin to have Wendy with him. She still wanted to do something practical for Gavin.

But now, Dolly had to come back.

Iris told Dolly that Gavin and Wendy's wedding day had been decided, and all the preparations were also done. Dolly could just come back directly to attend their wedding.

Dolly knew that Wendy would marry Gavin, but she did not expect that they would pick the first day of the New Year for their wedding day. She was so surprised that she could not say anything.

Iris smiled and asked, "Yunjin, you're very happy, aren't you?"

Dolly nodded repeatedly on the other side of the phone in a distant country. After a while, she remembered that Iris could not see it and said, "Yes, I'm very happy!"

"I understand how you're feeling now!" Iris also laughed. She said in recollection, "When Brian was about to get married, I was so happy that I almost could not sleep! Now your daughter and son are getting married at the same time. You should be happier than I was!"

"Yes, yes!" Dolly was so excited that she spoke incoherently. "Yulan, I don't know what to say."

Iris directly said, "You don't have to say anything! The most important thing for you is to come back as soon as possible!"

Dolly could not help laughing again. "I've booked a flight already!"

"That's good." Iris showed a gratified smile. "Let's talk when you come back."

"Okay, see you later."

As soon as Dolly finished speaking, Iris ended the call.

Iris put down her mobile phone and noticed that Brian had come back. She could not help asking, "Brian, are you still busy now?"

Brian was in charge of the Lambert Group, and he was so busy that it was common for him to work overtime at home at night.

Iris always persuaded Brian to take breaks from time to time.

Brian responded with a light smile. He could not relax.

Iris also knew that as long as the Kent family's foundation was not destroyed, it was impossible for Brian to stop working.

Brian knew that Iris was worried about him, so he intentionally told her that he was not tired.

He was no longer the same as before. He had Joanne and two children now.

He was no longer fighting on his own. Instead, he had the source of power.

Even so, Iris still hoped that Brian would not be too tired.

Brian smiled and answered, "Mom, I have finished dealing with my business today."

"That's good." Iris waved her hand and asked Brian to go upstairs. "You and Joanne go to bed early."

Brian nodded and went upstairs. Instead of going to his room, he went to the children's room.

In the children's room, Joanne and Martha were trying to coax the two babies to sleep. Aiden and Romy were very well-behaved. After a while, they fell asleep obediently. Their little hands were positioned by their mouths as they slept soundly, looking particularly cute.

Martha smiled and said, "Mr. Lambert, Mrs. Lambert, go back to rest. I'll take care of Aiden and Romy."

Joanne looked at the two babies and was not worried that they would kick up a fuss. Then, she followed Brian out of the children's room.

Back in the room, Joanne suddenly thought of something and stopped Brian.

Brian turned around and looked at her meaningfully. "Are you... making a request?"

Joanne could not help complaining. "Mr. Lambert, you really misunderstood my intentions. I just wanted to ask you what was in the bag that Wesley just took away."

Brian raised his eyebrows. "Joanne, why are you so curious about that?"

Usually, Joanne would not be curious about any irrelevant minor details.

Joanne's explanation was simple and proper. "Because the bag doesn't match Wesley's image!"

Wesley had an aura of mystery and danger and carrying some lethal weapons fitted his image. It was not unseemly for him to carry such an elegant bag in his hand, but it looked rather incongruous.

Brian looked at Joanne's enquiring face and could not help rubbing her head. "It's the suit Gavin will wear on his wedding day."

On the surface, Gavin was not very particular about his clothing, but most of his suits were handmade and customized by a particular brand.

As Gavin had said, although he fitted well into all the suits, only the custom-made suits could bring out his perfection for such an important occasion and role.

The brand kept a record of Gavin's fitting statistics. Brian contacted the brand and requested for a newly customized suit for Gavin.

Gavin was a regular customer of the brand. When they found that this suit would be for Gavin's wedding, the design director not only designed it himself, but also participated in the production process.

Joanne's beautiful peach-blossom eyes lit up. "Since the design director is also involved, Gavin's wedding clothes would look great on him!"

"..." Brian thought for a moment and said seriously, "I have decided that when we hold our wedding, the directors of major brands must participate in the design and production of my attire."

"..." Joanne tried hard to hide her speechlessness. She looked at Brian and said, "Mr. Lambert, you don't have to compete with Gavin in this kind of thing, do you?"

"If you hadn't praised Gavin, it would be negotiable." Brian lowered his head, leaned over to Joanne's ear, and whispered, "But you praised Gavin just now. So, it's not negotiable."

"Childish!"

Joanne complained about Brian and took her clothes into the bathroom.

Brian looked at Joanne's back, and silently thought that since Joanne felt that he was childish, it would not be bad for them to try to do something childish tonight.
