Chapter 35 Goodbye, Fourth Brother
Chapter 35 Goodbye, Fourth Brother
After the Brook Family''s car drove away from N City Noble High School, the little girl seemed to
hear an angry snorting from her side.
Nancy, feeling confused, turned her head to look at her brother. However, he was hugging his arms,
slightly raising his chin up, and turning his head to the other side.
She wondered if she hear it wrong.
"Hmph!" This time, the voice was more obvious. Adam Brook shot a nce at Nancy, purposely let
out a snort, and turned his head.
Nancy was dumbfounded by his reaction. "Brother, what''s wrong with you?"
Adam Brook replied, "I''m fine!"
Staring at him and blinking her eyes, Nancy hummed in affirmation and stopped talking.
This time, Adam Brook went silent, wondering if it troubled her to ask him more. "Hmph!"
Nancy was wondering if her brother felt ufortable in his throat.
"Let me ask you, who is your real brother?" Noticing that his sister was not smart enough, he did not
expect her to figure it out on her own.
Nancy took his hand and shook it gently. "It''s you, brother."
Adam Brook replied, "Then, why did you treat Louis Brook better than me?"
Seriously, Nancy corrected him. "He''s Fourth Brother. He is my Fourth Brother, and also yours."
"How can there be a brother who opposes his younger brother all day?"
"But he is our Fourth Brother. If you don''t believe me, go ask daddy."
Adam Brook felt speechless and reluctant about her reply. Then, he immediately hung a fierce look
on his face when he realized the topic was off. "Am I talking about that topic just now? Are you
stupid? In the future, you''ll need to rely on me to protect you at school!"
Nancy looked at him innocently. "Wow, our brother is so awesome!"
Listening to her reply, Adam Brook has gone silent. After a long fuss, Nancy figured out the
situation. Her brother, who was speaking sourly, seemed like he was... "Brother, are you jealous?"
As Nancy has hit the nail, Adam instantly felt embarrassed and flustered. He retorted loudly, "How is
that possible?! Me, jealous? What kind of feeling is that? This young master will never be jealous!"
James Brook, who was driving in front, nced at the recording equipment in the car. In a good
mood, he decided to record his son''s ''ambitious'' words, and take the recording out to give him a
p on his face in the future.
"Keep your voice low, don''t scare your sister, and what ''young master'' are you talking at?" James
Brook''s tone was cold.
Adam Brook shivered in fear. A great man knows when to yield and when not. So, he could just stop
referring to himself as ''young master''.
"Anyway, it''s impossible for me to be jealous!"
Nancy nodded obediently. "Okay, I got it. You''re not jealous."
Gu An snorted and stopped talking. In the dark, the ck Maybach drove back to Brook''s vi.
Apanied by the barking sound of a dog, the tranquil vi became lively again.
In the end, Louis Brook''s wish did note true. Because on the next day, Windy brought Nancy to
the yground and water park for a day. Nancy enjoyed herself to the fullest throughout the whole
day. However, after that, she was too tired that she fell asleep. Even though James Brook was
fetching Adam back from school, she did not wake up to follow along.
Adam Brook, who ran out of the school gate excitedly but only saw his father, was angry after his
disappointment.
He threw his schoolbag into the car and was sulking as soon as he got in.

Nevertheless, he said nothing. Hmph! Who cares if you''re noting to pick me up? he thought.
James Brook looked away from the tablet and nced at his younger son, whose expression
changed and didn''t hide his emotions at all.
He was speechless for a moment. "Why don''t you ask me the reason Nancy didn''te to pick you
up today?"
Adam Brook grumbled loudly, "Who cares about hering to pick me up? It''s not like I can''t go
back myself!"
Although your mouth was stubborn, you were so angry. Are you sure you don''t care? James
thought, let''s forget about it, just leave him getting angry by himself.
Adam Brook scanned around the home when he was back home. Unfortunately, he still couldn''t see
the girl. While pretending not to care, he asked, "Grandpa, why didn''t that little girl apany you
today?"
The Elderly Mr. Brook red at him. "What ''little girl'' do you mean? She''s your sister!"
After taking a sip of tea, only then did he continue saying casually. "Your mother has brought Nancy
to the yground and water park today. Most probably, the child has overyed it since it was her
first. When she came back, she was too tired, so she fell asleep in the car. Now, she''s still
sleeping."
Upon hearing his reply, the annoying feeling inside Adam''s heart had finally dissipated. When going
upstairs, he muttered, "Why didn''t Mommy wait for me to go out to y after my holiday?"
After running upstairs, Adam Brook put his schoolbag down and ran out again, then quietly got into
Nancy''s room.
In the spacious, bright, and warm room, there was a little girl sleeping soundly on the soft bed, while
hugging a rabbit plushie inside her arms.
Adam Brook walked over gently and took down the rabbit doll, and Nancy''s sleeping appearance
waspletely exposed.
Curling her hands and resting them between one side of her head, there were some slight wounds
and calluses on her fingers and palms.
At this moment, the little girl was sleeping peacefully.
She looked too good to be bullied, but at the same time, he also felt to protect the child.
Adam Brook put his fingers to her slightly curled fingers and scratched the palm of her hand. When
his fingers touched the calluses and the tiny wounds on her palm, his eyes twitched, showing a
heartache expression that he didn''t even know.
He was young when his younger sister was lost, so he could not remember whether he was sad at
that time. The memories of childhood were always easy to forget. In the three years when they
didn''t manage to find Nancy, the tides of time will wash away one''s sandcastle. He was very vague
about the appearance of this sister and didn''t seem to have affectionate feelings to her.
But now, seeing the wounds exposed on his sister''s tiny hands; Adam Brook hated the people who
have involved in her kidnapping for the first time.
"Hmm... brother." Clenching up her fingers slowly, Nancy grabbed Adam''s fingers slowly. With her
eyes slightly opened, she recognized the person who was standing in front of the window. In a
daze, she called him ''brother'' softly.
The word ''brother'' inexplicably triggered a sense of responsibility in Adam''s heart. He never
considered himself an adult like this moment. He wanted to protect his younger sister under his
wings, unwilling to let anything slightest to hurt her.
