Chapter 1513: Algerone Swain Was Very Displeased
Chapter 1513: Algerone Swain was very displeased
Belinda hadn''t expected Algerone to depart so suddenly, and she couldn''t help but wonder what had
upset him. This left her quite frustrated, as it mirrored his inexplicable departure thest time. The
gloom of her mood was palpable.
"Stop staring and just let him go. Come on, let''s eat some dumplings!" Belinda, suppressing her
resentment, called out to the young couple at the door.
Tristan took Monica''s hand and ushered her into the living room. "Come, join your mother for
dumplings." They sat at the dining table, picking up their forks to resume their meal.
In an attempt to diffuse the tension and express his sincerity, Tristan spoke up, "Auntie, I appreciate
your willingness to entrust Monica to me."
Belinda looked up, her voice cool. "You''re only dating, not married. I haven''t entrusted her to you yet."
Tristan was left speechless, their gazes meeting. Monica was even more embarrassed.
Belinda then softened her tone and averted her gaze. "I''ll watch how you behave during your

courtship."
Relieved, Tristan nodded resolutely, "Alright, I won''t let you down."
"Mum..." Monica couldn''t help but interject, "Don''t be so serious. You''ve already agreed to let us be
together, why are you acting this way?"
Belinda''s gaze lifted, "Because men are unreliable." They knew she was thinking about Algerone
again... and that she was angry.
Because the road was still covered with snow and the car was carrying a child, Jack Adams drove
slowly. Algerone Swain''s car quickly overtook them, driving parallel to them.
At first, Jack Adams didn''t notice and moved his car slightly to the right. However, the other vehicle
didn''t seem to want to pass.
Lowering his car window, Jack Adams turned to see Algerone''s face in the other car. Instinctively, Jack
pulled over.
Quickly, Algerone Swain also pulled over.
"Kids, don''t get out of the car," Jack Adams said, unbuckling his seatbelt and turning to the children.
"Green, why don''t you start a story?"
"Alright, Mr. Adams," answered Green, the oldest and most sensible child, who was also the ss
leader and a sister to everyone.
Jack Adams saw Algerone Swain standing not far away and, after exiting his car, he walked towards
him.
Their intense gazes met...
Algerone Swain looked somewhat cold as he extended his hand. "Hello, I''m Algerone Swain, Belinda''s
ex-husband," he introduced himself.
"Hello, Jack Adams."
Their hands shook briefly under the warm yellow light, allowing them to clearly see each other''s
expressions.
Algerone Swain didn''t want to waste time and got straight to the point. "You like Belinda, admit it?"
So direct?
Meeting his gaze, Jack Adams contemted for a moment. He couldn''t lie, nor did he feel guilty or
scared. "I''m single, and so is she. Liking her doesn''t seem to vite any moral code, nor does it break
thew."
"You''re right, but right now, she and I are in the process of reconciling," Algerone Swain said casually.
"Our daughter is growing up, and she hopes to have aplete family as a model for her own. I think
you understand what I mean?"
"I understand," Jack Adams nodded. After a moment of silence, he spoke softly, "I think you''ve
misunderstood. I won''tpete with you, because I know she still has feelings for you."
At this, Algerone Swain was taken aback. Belinda still had feelings for him?
"Mr. Swain, my friendship with Belinda is pure. I hope it won''t cause any problems for you both in the
future," he said sincerely and lightly, "Since we''ve unfortunately missed each other for so many years,
let''s not continue to miss out because of suspicions."
Algerone Swain looked at him, "...", and felt very displeased!
