    Chapter 126 I Want That Candy


    Cam nodded. Brian also looked at her. “Don’t be sad over an unworthy person.” “Yeah, I won’t be,” she


    answered. After a brief chat, Marcus took the hint and left upon bidding Ss and Brian farewell. Ss


    and Brian were left alone now. The two brothers fell silent and did not say a word to each other. Finally,


    Ss spoke first, “Do you still faint oftentely?” Brian was like a hedgehog on defense. “You don’t need


    to put up an act!” , “You know I’m only concerned about you.”


    Brian snapped, “I wouldn’t want to trouble you, President Nn.”


    They were at daggers drawn. But Cam happened to notice how different Ss’s attitude was toward


    Brian like there was an unspeakable pain hidden behind his eyes.


    She immediately cut in, “How did you guys show up right on time?” Brian huffed. “I didn’t think I’d bump


    into you when I came here to observe!” Ss did not make a sound. He could not reveal that it was his


    son who had notified him.


    Ignoring Ss, Brian turned his attention toward her. “Cam, where did you buy the candy you gave me


    last time? I want to get some more.” “Oh, did you finish it? I’ll get more for you then. It’s from a rather


    remote ce in a small alley. I’ll send it to you after I buy it!” He nodded. “Okay. No wonder I couldn’t find


    it in any of the supermarkets I went to.” “Yeah, it’s not a well-known brand. I’ve just grown used to the


    taste of this candy since I ate it growing up, so I keep going back to the same store!” Seeing the doting


    look in Brian’s eyes tormented Ss. Brian, if she weren’t the woman I’ve been looking for, if she weren’t


    the mother of my son, I would let you have her! But now… South snuck his small hand onto Ss’s face


    and looked up at him as if tofort him.


    Ss felt his heart soften and he smiled. “Let’s get going, Cam!” She answered with a low murmur then


    looked at Brian and said, “Thank you for today!” His eyes grew gentle. “No problem.” “We’ll get going


    now. I’ll call you once I have it!”


    After they said their goodbyes to Brian, they made their way out of the hotel. During the car ride, Ss


    looked at Cam and said, “I want to eat it too.” She was boggled. “Huh?” “The candy!”


    She finally understood him. “Sure, no problem.” The corners of his lips slowly curled up as he looked at? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    her. “Don’t be mad. I’ll be mad on your behalf.” She was looking out the window. “No, it’s fine. I’m not


    mad anymore. L won’t have it easy from now on.” “You’re too generous!” A smile appeared on her


    face. “A lot of people say I’m heartless. Yet, you think I’m generous?” “Getting fooled once might just


    mean that you weren’t aware of how evil people can be. Getting fooled twice; well, the other party might


    just be too clever. But if you get fooled three times by the same person, then you’re just not the brightest


    person in the room. Sometimes, being kind to your enemy will only bring you more harm. Just because


    you let her go doesn’t mean your father will change his mind about you. He’s already biased.” With her


    gaze still trained outside the window, she thought, Yeah, being biased sure is a scary thing. He defends


    L without even knowing right from wrong. I’m just the fool who got the short end of the stick!


    After several attempts, Ben finally managed to ask Jessica out on a date. He bought her flowers, invited


    her to a meal, and did everything he could to tend to her needs. She practically had him at her beck and


    call. While they were at a fancy restaurant, Ben grabbed her hand and said with a pitiful look on his face,


    “Sweetheart, don’t be mad anymore. I know what I did wrong. I was seduced by that woman, but I never


    thought about breaking up with you!”
