    Chapter 1762 Looking For An Ally (Part Two)


    "Fine! You win!" Edward said. He then picked his phone up as he decided to call someone else to have


    dinner with them together. He really didn''t want to face Brian alone. He needed people to be around


    them just to make sure that he wouldn''t be able to do anything bad to himter. He needed some


    referee.


    Seeing Edward make phone calls, Brian shrugged and didn''t stop him. The more the merrier after all.


    Moreover, it wasn''t him who would pay for the meal.


    "Hi, Edward! Why are you calling?" Rain''s voice came from the other end of the line. He had been


    really busy recently. He was worried about Edward''s calls as thetter would always assign tasks to


    him.


    "Do you want to have dinner with me? I refuse to ept no as an answer." Edward was always bossy


    before Rain, and Rain was already used to it.


    "Why did you even ask for my opinion if you''re not epting ''no''?" Rain rolled his eyes and dropped


    his pen on the table. He still had to eat anyway regardless of how busy he was.


    "Hurry up! I''ll see you in Westin." After saying that, Edward hung the phone up. He had been nning


    to talk to Rain for the past few days. Having him eat dinner with him was like killing two birds with one


    stone.


    On the other hand, Rain sighed defeatedly upon hearing the call ended. ''He''s my boss. What else can I


    do?'' he thought helplessly before grabbing his coat and car keys.


    "Why are you still sitting here? Come with me." Edward grabbed his car keys and walked out of his


    office.


    "I''m so d to see your long face. Haha!" provoked Brian. He was intentionally making Edward angry


    as he knew that Edward wouldn''t dare to take revenge. He had Daisy in his side, thus, he was not


    afraid of Edward at all.


    "It sounds like you are simply not in your right mind." Edward tried his best to suppress his anger. He


    kept telling himself, ''Calm down, Edward. You must not lose your temper. Otherwise, Daisy will get


    angrier.'' He could still remember how Daisy looked while telling him of what she would do in case


    someone bullied her brother.


    "How can you say those hurtful words to me? I''ll tell Daisy about it." Brian pretended to be hurt by


    Edward''s words.


    "Don''t try to anger me, man. I won''t buy it." As a reaction, Edward cast a burning nce at Brian before


    he opened his car door.

    "Oh, no. That''s not funny." A cunning smile spread across Brian''s face as he opened the door for the


    passenger seat.


    "Just shut your mouth," said Edward as he got into the driver''s seat and ignored his brother-inw.


    That made Brian chuckle as he joined him inside the car.


    "Where''s your car?" It was toote for Edward to realize what just happened. He turned to Brian in


    surprise as he thought that Brian would drive there by himself.


    "I don''t feel like driving," lied Brian smoothly. He would never admit the fact that he was not that familiar


    with the streets of S City at all. He didn''t want to lose his way so he chose to ride Edward''s car.


    Edward opened his mouth to say something, but then closed it back just before he regretted things. ''I


    really hope he can shut his mouth on the way, '' he thought to himself.


    After a few minutes, they finally reached the restaurant. Rain was already there when they stepped in.


    Surprised, Rain ended up looking back and forth between Edward and Brian when they approached.


    ''Ah, no wonder Edward asked me to have dinner with him, '' he thought.


    "Hi, Brian! When did youe back?" Rain greeted Brian. Although he was not familiar with Brian, he


    had seen him a couple of times.


    "I camest night. I went to Edward as soon as I got back here. He was so ungrateful about it though. It


    seems like he doesn''t want to see me at all." While speaking, Brian cast a challenging nce at


    Edward. He was eager to know his response.


    "Really? Edward, I don''t think you''re right. Brian has been abroad for a long time. How could you be so


    cold to him? You should be a weing host." Rain would not miss this chance to fight shoulder-to-


    shoulder with Brian against theirmon enemy, Edward the Tyrant!


    "Are you here for dinner or stirring up trouble for me?" Edward cast a freezing nce at Rain. How


    could this guy betray him? He didn''t ask Rain to join him here to be his enemy! Shouldn''t Rain be


    taking his side?


    "Uh. I''m here for dinner." Shrugging his shoulders, Rain decided not to provoke Edward again. He


    wasn''t considering Brian as a strong back-up after all. Who knew how he would end up with if he


    pushed Edward''s button more?


    "Then shut up and order your dishes." Edward threw two menus before Brian and Rain.


    "Okay, okay. I''ll zip my mouth." Rain stole a nce at Edward and wondered why he was in a bad


    mood today.


    "I have a case at hand and I think it fits your CY Technology perfectly. I''ll ask Anna to fax you the


    detailster. If you''re interested, just let me know." CY Technology hade through the worst and


    was developing slowly. Edward believed that Rain had to seize this opportunity to make a


    breakthrough.


    "Oh, thank you, Edward. There''s no need to bother Anna though. I''lle back with you after we finish


    eating." Rain really appreciated Edward''s kind offer.


    "Sounds good." Edward shed a cunning smile. He had something else to do in the afternoon. When


    Rain arrived at FX International Group, he would ask him to finish his remaining work so that he could


    leave thepany.


    "You look weird, Edward. What are you plotting?" Uncontrolled shivers crawled Rain''s arm when he


    noticed Edward''s smile. ''This doesn''t look good, '' he thought.


    "Don''t be ridiculous." Edward stole a nce at Brian and wondered if he could make Brian his ally.


    There would be a bigger chance for Daisy to forgive him if he could get Brian on his side.


    "Don''t look at me like that, Edward. Just say it." Brian noticed Edward''s creepy stare and wondered


    why Edward was so strange today.


    "Brian, do you think Daisy is a good sister?" inquired Edward all of the sudden. He decided to fawn on


    Brian so that he could put in a good word for him before Daisy. He was thinking, ''Men should be able


    and flexible.''


    "Yes. Of course she is. And I''m also a good brother," said Brian proudly. He wondered what Edward


    was going to say and he could tell from his expression that he was plotting something.


    "Let me ask you this. Do you want a niece?" Edward asked. He looked really eager to know his reply. It


    would be really easy to make Brian his ally if he would agree.


    "Why are you asking?" Brian asked confusedly. His gut feeling was telling him that there was a trap for


    him.


    "Just tell me your answer!" said Edward with a deep frown. ''What a slow brat!'' he cursed in his mind.


    "Edward, are you saying that you want to have another kid with Daisy?" It was Rain who immediately


    got Edward''s point. He had been working with Edward for so many years, thus, he knew Edward well


    enough.


    "That''s impossible! Daisy would by no means say yes." Brian turned him down without any hesitation.


    "You do know her well." Frustratedly, Edward looked at Brian in dismay as his n failed.


    "Of course! She''s my sister!" Brian cast a scornful nce at Edward. It was not even long ago that


    Daisy called him to say that she had been really busy recently. He was pretty sure that Daisy would not


    consider having another baby in this period.


    "I know she''s your sister. No one is denying that!" Edward snapped back. ''She''s your sister. So what?


    She''s my wife!'' he thought.


    "Well, Rain, you know what. Someone is so jealous here that he would cut in whenever I have a talk


    with Daisy." Brian rolled his eyes at Edward. He was getting curious about how Edward would look


    once his temper burst.


    Rain was clever though and chose to remain quiet. He just pretended that he was not here. He got no


    ns of involving himself with whatever fight these two got.


    "Rain, I heard the new dishes here are pretty good. Why not give them a try?" Edward turned to ask


    Rain as if he didn''t hear what Brian had said.


    "Oh, okay." Secretly, Rain was crying. ''Why do you have to drag me in. I''m really not interested in your


    fight. God, please save me.''


    Meanwhile, Brian curled his lips and said no more.


    Edward didn''t enjoy this meal at all. His n to make Brian his ally failed and he was mad at Brian


    because of his attitude.


    On the contrary, Rain and Brian had a good meal. As the saying goes, "The enemy of my enemy is my


    friend." They ate and talked to each other happily. It was such a good bonding moment for two people


    who shared the same nemesis.
