Chapter 1214 - She wants Brian to take the bait (1)

Brian didn't go out with a chauffeur, but with a lot of bodyguards.

Mina was one of them.

Mina stood outside the door of the old house, her hands folded together, her chin resting on the back of her hand, eyeing Brian and Joanne's back.

Just by looking at the back, I can tell that this is a happy couple.

It's ... envy.

"Miss Mina?"

Someone called out to Mina like that.

Because of her strong hands, her friends like to call Mina sister, but Mina is not very old, so they added the word "small" in front of "sister", which sometimes sounds full of teasing, but more often sounds like a kind of love and care for Mina.

"Hmm?"

Mina quickly looked back to the person who had called her-

It was a male bodyguard, clearly here to pick a fight, knowingly asking, "Miss, are you particularly envious of Mr. and Mrs. Lambert?"

"More than envious, it's simply heartbreaking!" Mina sighed frankly, "When will I meet a man like Mr. Lambert?"

"Isn't that easy?" The male bodyguard laughed, "Just turn into someone like Mrs. Lambert!"

Sounds reasonable!

Mina looked at herself with joy, then at Joanne, and was suddenly frustrated-

How is it possible for her to become someone like Joanne?

Thinking about it, Mina finally reacted with the afterthought that she was being played a joke.

"You dare to laugh at me for being a fool?" Mina rolled up her sleeves, her expression suddenly becoming fierce, "See if I don't get you killed!"

Joanne had just finished talking to Brian about the scene of their first meeting when she heard the sound of a fight coming from behind her.

Could it be that the people from Conrad City are here?

She subconsciously grabbed Brian's hand and turned around to see that it was Mina frolicking with a few of her men.

Brian sensed Joanne's nervousness and covered her hand with his palm, signaling her to feel at ease, saying, "Don't be nervous, it's Mina and the others."

"I saw it." Joanne smiled, "Is Mina often like this with them ...?"

"It will be when it's okay." Brian inclined his head and sized up Joanne, "You seem to care about Mina?"

"She's been protecting me for a while, I think she's quite a good little girl." Joanne hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "But how did she follow you and Wesley?"

Shouldn't such a young girl in her prime and beautiful be enjoying a stable and cozy life, how did she become a professional agent?

Brian pondered for a moment, Mina's life is not something unspeakable, it doesn't matter if he tells Joanne to know.

He took Joanne's hand and slowly said, "Mina's family all died at the hands of Rowdy, and she was the only one who escaped. What exactly happened, if Mina is willing, she will tell you."

"..." Joanne didn't realize that something like this had happened to Mina, and nodded in silence, looking at Mina and then at the sun in the distance-

In fact, the sun was no longer visible, with only the last rays of sunset remaining on the horizon, creating a beautiful but bleak halo of light.

Joanne decided not to think about anything and pulled Brian up, "Let's go back."

Brian let Mina drive and he and Joanne sat in the back seat.

Mina was also a cheerful girl, chatting with Joanne as she drove, talking about exactly what happened to be the open and shut battle between them and Rowdy at the reception the day before yesterday.

When Mina mentioned this, Joanne suddenly remembered something and looked at Brian and asked, "What exactly is the thing that Yuna handed over to us?"

The item was taken out from the bathroom by Mina, no one knows better than her, she didn't wait for Brian to open his mouth before she jumped the gun and said: ''Ma'am, the item that Miss Yuna gave us is a USB flash drive. But I don't know what's inside the flash drive. After I got the item, I immediately took it to the apartment across the street and gave it to Brother Seven."

In that case, should I still ask Brian?

Joanne continued to stare at Brian,"Did Wesley tell you what's inside the flash drive?"

"He hasn't said it yet." Brian lightly met Joanne's gaze and continued, "But I have something today that requires Wesley to come to our house, so you can ask him by the way."

Joanne's eyes lit up, "Yes, I'll definitely remember to ask!"

Mina's ability to read words and colors was first-rate, and she woke up and asked, "Since Brother Wesley is coming, Mr. Lambert, I'll take you and Mrs. Lambert home?"

Brian "hmmm", took the tablet placed on the side, opened the mailbox and began to deal with some emails from work.

Joanne returned home and realized that not only Wesley, but William and Rolando would also come along.

The old lady is not familiar with William, but she is familiar with the Young Master Bell Tang, and the young master foodie heard that the old lady was at Brian's house, and made a special call, saying that she missed the braised pork made by Aunt Iris very much.

Brian's father was born and Tang Director of friendship, Iris is watching the birth of Rolando, on this skillful mastery of petulant and cute all kinds of delightful skills of the young master is very loving, not to mention the young master wants to eat braised meat, he wants to eat how to burn out of the meat, Iris will not be refused.

Seeing Iris busy in the kitchen, Joanne handed the two little ones to Brian and rolled up her sleeves to go into the kitchen to help Iris.

When Iris saw Joanne come in, she instantly guessed what she was going to do and busily said, "Joanne, you're not feeling well, go to the living room and rest, I'll manage."

"Mom, my physiological period is over, I don't feel uncomfortable at all now." Joanne smiled, "I'll help you out and do some simple chores."

Iris couldn't say anything to Joanne, and eventually agreed to let her stay and help.

Eight dishes and one soup was soon ready, Joanne wiped her hands and was about to call someone in to help serve the dishes when she saw Rolando follow the scent into the kitchen.

Well, this Young Master Bell has come at the right time.

Joanne waved at Rolando, handed him the two cold dishes, and said, "Help bring them to the restaurant outside."

Pak Tang took a deep breath and sniffed the flavor, finally letting out a contented sigh, "I'm more than happy to help."

"I'll leave it to you then!" Joanne took off her apron while saying, "I'll go out to check on Aiden and Romy."

"Wow, no need to look." Rolando is carrying two dishes, while saying, "They're asleep, Brian and Wesley just carried them upstairs." As she says this, she skims her lips and lets out a "humph", "I also wanted to carry Romy, but Brian said I wasn't allowed to touch his daughter! What's the big deal, some other day when I'm free, I'll have one to play with!"

Joanne's attention was all on the first half of Rolando's sentence-

Wesley and Brian carried the two little ones upstairs together ...

Joanne suddenly remembered that Yuna is also pregnant with a child now, but, for physical reasons, Wesley and Yuna s child ... will most likely not be able to come to this world.

Wesley is already choosing between an adult and a child.

If it was before, Joanne might only think that Wesley had just made a tougher choice.

However, after the birth of the two little ones, she suddenly understood what it was like to be a parent, and knew that it wasn't just hard when Wesley made his choice.

Wesley also loved children, but, for the sake of Yuna, he had to give up his own child with his own hands.

At that moment, his heart must have hurt like a knife, right?

Rolando finished serving the two dishes and diligently folded back into the kitchen, intending to continue serving, but found Joanne frozen in place and couldn't help but call out to her, "What are you thinking about?"

Rolando trailed off just as Brian happened to walk in.

Joanne smiled at Rolando, then walked over to Brian and said, "After dinner, I have something to say to you."

"After the meal I want to talk to Wesley and the others about a little thing, you ... wait for me for a while?" Brian asked with some hesitation.

"Well, it's okay, what I'm about to say is not urgent." Joanne smiled, "You get busy first, let's talk afterward."

Brian smiled and rubbed Joanne's hair, helping her carry the soup out.

During the meal, Brian and Wesley several people closed their mouths and did not mention Yuna's matter, only after the meal said to Iris that they had some things to discuss and went to the study first.

"Go ahead." Iris waved her hand and said with a smile, "Joanne and I will help you prepare drinks."

Brian and Wesley were used to drinking tea, William preferred coffee, and Young Master Bell Tang ordered freshly squeezed juice.

Iris and Joanne prepared them one by one, and finally, Joanne brought the tea and drinks upstairs and knocked on the door of the study.

Brian knew it was Joanne, walked over and opened the door, took the tray in Joanne's hand and said, "Come in."

"Me?" Joanne was a bit incredulous, pointing at herself and asking repeatedly, "Are you sure I can go in?"

"OK." Brian said, "We happened to talk about Yuna's physical condition."

Joanne froze for a moment - Yuna's current physical condition?

It was important for her to hear it!

Joanne no longer hesitated and followed Brian into the study.

Seeing Joanne come in, William continued, "Miss Yuna's condition is deteriorating day by day, my suggestion is to pick her up as early as possible and hospitalize her to receive treatment by regular means. In addition, I went to the Kent family today, and Miss Yuna told me one thing-"

Wesley's brows tightened with a touch of seriousness as he asked in a deep voice, "What is it?"

"Miss Yuna said that Rowdy has most likely begun to suspect her." William crossed his fingers and rubbed his palms against each other, "Miss Yuna didn't tell me how much longer she could hide it, she just said that she hoped we'd move faster."

Yuna is about to show his face ...

Once it was revealed, Rowdy would definitely take her life.

By then, not to mention the child, Wesley would even lose Yuna.

Wesley's heart was like being pinched hard, and his hands tightened without moving, his knuckles almost bursting through the skin and flesh to burst out ...

His expression was deep and calm, and no one knew what he was thinking ...
