Chapter 452 Let Me Be the Bad Guy


    The first therapy went smoothly. The therapist simply gave her some medicines to help her control her


    addiction. The medicines also served as a psychological maniptor so that she would not crave for a


    drug injection the next day.


    After the therapist had left, Lisa asked in a worried tone, "Brother, is the doctor reliable?"


    Vincent tapped her on her head and smiled. "What''s on your mind? Don''t you believe me?"


    "I just have a feeling that he is not our ally, " Lisa told him her concern. If there was someone whom


    she could believe in, it was no one but Vincent. She never worried about being betrayed by him. If he


    didn''t want to help her, then he would never have risked his life to kidnap Linda to find Lisa. For


    Vincent, Lisa was more important than any other person he could think of.


    "Don''t worry. It doesn''t matter how he seemed like. Just keep in mind that a dead body doesn''t talk."


    Lisa immediately understood what he had meant. The therapist would be killed after he sessfully


    helped her cure her addiction.


    "I''m so relieved. I am proud of you, dear brother. I would never have thought of that! I guess we''d better


    get going now."


    "Lisa, as your brother, I hope you can stay away from all these awful things forever. Let me be the bad


    guy and do all the dirty works for you, okay?''''


    "Thank you very much, brother."


    They hurriedly returned home. After a quick talk in Vincent''s room, Lisa went back to Robert


    immediately, who was sleeping soundly because of the sleeping pills.


    But Alice caught a glimpse of Lisa walking out of Vincent''s room when she went to the toilet. With her


    mouth opened wide, she was surprised. She hurriedly rubbed her eyes in order to see whether Lisa


    had actuallye out of Vincent''s room or not. In Alice''s eyes, she saw Linda came out of Adam''s


    room in the middle of the night. One of them was Robert''s wife and the other his brother. It was really


    shocking and she did see it.


    She couldn''t believe her own eyes. She opened her eyes wider this time and covered her mouth with


    both her hands. She dared not make any sound. All kinds of thoughts shed through her mind. Was


    there something between the two of them?


    She had been serving the Huo n for years, and she heard whispers about all these wealthy ns all

    the time. Incest was nothing new to her. She could only pretend to not know about it and shut her


    mouth for her own good. Otherwise, she would suffer consequences.


    After a while, Alice went out of the bathroom after Lisa had gotten back to Robert''s room. And then,


    Alice went back to her room discreetly, pretending that nothing had happened...


    Sometimes, ignoring what you had seen was the best way to protect yourself...


    Even though what was happening between them was none of her business, Alice was a loyal servant


    to the Huo n and had promised to offer a helping hand whenever she was needed. She would not


    allow Lisa to hurt Robert nor ruin the Huo n''s reputation.


    Time went by. Every day, Robert went to thepany to teach "Adam" about business management.


    Vincent was once the butler of the Xia n, and he had made arrangements for some of the Xia n''s


    Robert was satisfied with his brother''s performance. Little did he know that the one who had earned his


    recognition was not his brother, but Vincent...


    Robert was extremely satisfied with his "brother". Based on his performance in thepany, Robert


    was now a hundred percent sure that he could leave thepany to "Adam" and go abroad with his


    beloved woman.


    At first, when Robert had promised Lisa that he would settle abroad with her, he was still worried about


    thepany.


    He was not sure whether his brother was capable of handling such a bigpany. After all, he knew


    Adam had no experience in managing one before.


    But his brother''s performance proved to be way beyond his expectations. He even had a feeling that


    his brother had done a better job than he had! The Huo''s Group was a big corporation with many


    shareholders. If the leader was not qualified enough, then those shareholders might give the Group''s


    management a hard time.


    Their parents had dedicated themselves to thispany. It''s high time for them to enjoy their


    retirement. Robert and his brother should take over their jobs. They should never ever fail their parents''


    expectations and let thepany suffer.


    The Mu''s vi.


    "Damn it, Anna. You are so lucky today! You win again!" Linda was about to lose her temper because


    of her bad luck in ying Mahjong.


    "My Lady, I''m sorry. But I think you are way too unlucky today, " Anna said with a smirk as she counted


    the money that she had won.


    "Oh dear! Anna, you are really lucky today! You''ve won again and again! Your wallet must be so thick


    right now." Emily couldn''t help but shake her head and gasp with admiration.


    Lily Jiang said with resignation, "Come on, you two! Please stop. You both had almost won right now.


    But look at me! I am the unluckiest one!"


    People all said that three women made a great show. But fourdies would make the show even better.


    It was July, but the sizzling summer heat didn''t affect the fourdies. They were sitting in an air-


    conditioned room in the vi, where it was quitefortable and cozy.


    They had decided to y Mahjong there because the current climate left them nothing better to do than


    to stay inside the cozy andfortable room with AC on.


    Anna, who was following Charles''s instructions, had been taking good care of Linda. Emily, who had


    just finished her college entrance exam, would stay here with Linda for two more months until she went


    to college. And Lily, who was having her summer vacation, came here to apany Linda. Charles


    was more than happy to see the three girls keep his lovely wife upied. He knew that she was bored


    during her pregnancy.


    Anna looked at the clock. It was already 3 p.m. now. It was time for Linda to have the white fungus


    broth, which she had asked servants to stew.


    "My Lady, please have a rest and have a bowl of white fungus broth."


    Every afternoon, Anna prepared different nutritious food for Linda, who frequently felt hungry. Three


    meals a day were not enough for her now. Before her pregnancy, she had already loved eating, but


    now that she had two mouths more to feed, she was more craving for delicious food. However, she was


    not knowledgeable about what she should not eat for the health of her baby. The baby in her tummy


    was 8 months old now. In two months, she would go intobor, so she had to take particrly good


    care of it.


    "Okay."


    "What smells so good? I would like to have a bite!" Emily said with a smile.
