Chapter 55 The Secrets of Ling Howard


    You are a cheap, dirty, ill-bred woman! You’re a bitch without a mother!


    ire Bet turns pale with such a vicious remark on the note.


    Bryce apparently senses something wrong with her. He hurries up to see it. He is very angry.


    ire Bet is trembling with rage. The words hurt her. She tears up the note and then turns to step


    down. Bryce stops her.


    Bryce calls in the staff. He takes another draft and hands it to her. He touches ire Bet’s head


    lovingly.


    ire Bet blushes. She is embarrassed.


    Ling Howard looks at them in a bit of surprise.


    Atst, ire Bet hurries off the stage and rxes.


    Ling Howard wants to ask about Bryce. But ire Bet seems a little unhappy so he doesn’t ask


    her.


    ire Bet seems to have noticed the weirdness of Ling Howard. She thinks he must have seen


    her with Bryce, especially when Bryce touched her hair. She closes her lips tightly.


    They have different minds.


    The long opening ceremony is finally over.

    Ling Howard stretches himself hyperbolically as he steps out of the hall. His bright eyes look around.


    ire Bet is puzzled. She grabs Ling Howard and says, “Hey, I feel you’re mysterious today. Are


    you looking for someone?”


    “No!” Ling Howard squints and waves.


    “There must be. Speak up!” ire Bet stares at the sh in Ling Howard’s eyes andughs.


    “Actually, sister-inw, I’m looking for Qi Elizabeth.”


    Ling Howard is suddenly a little angry. “She’s gone too far. I must find her and teach her a lesson.”


    ire Bet nces at him and says, “where did you go? I was helpless on the stage. If it weren’t


    for...”


    Ling Howard goes on to say, “If it weren’t for the beautiful man who appeared, you would be


    embarrassed, right?”


    ire Bet does not answer.


    Then Ling Howard suddenlyes up and says mysteriously, “But who’s that man?”


    ire Bet says, “Don’t get me wrong. Bryce and I are just...”


    Ling Howard doesn’t seem to care about ire Bet’s rtionship with Bryce at all.


    He says to himself, “he is called Bryce. He is Bryce Family’s heir. I didn’t expect him to be very


    handsome.” Ling Howard smiles unconsciously.


    ire Bet feels his smile is a little weird. But she doesn’t think much about it.


    However, what she doesn’t expect is that Ling Howard speaks directly, “Bryce is pretty good. I like him


    very much. I’m attracted to him!”


    “Ah?” ire Bet is shocked. “What do you mean? You can’t...”


    “Isn’t it obvious what I mean?” Ling Howard looks at ire Bet in amazement, scratches his head,


    smiles and says, “I’m not impressed with people as beautiful as you. That’s not because you are my


    sister-inw. Hey, you know!”


    ire Bet looks at him and says, “do you like men?”


    “Yes!” Ling Howard nods and whispers, “Sister-inw, you should keep your voice down. Nobody


    knows about it except you!”


    ire Bet is horrified. She looks at Ling Howard, pats him on the shoulder and says, “Don’t worry. I


    won’t tell anyone about it.”


    “Thank you, sister-inw!”


    Ling Howard is about to ask more about Bryce when hees across a tall woman with a pair of


    willow eyebrows locked and her eyes cold.


    Her name is Siri. She is a teacher in this Conservatory of Music.


    “Are you Miss Bet, please?” Siri smiles.


    ire Bet nods and responds with a smile. “I am. Who are you, please?”


    Siri smiles and politely responds, “I am the chief teacher of this college. Now there are some things to


    deal with you. If you can, follow me.”


    ire Bet is a little strange because she has just arrived here. She fears that Qi Elizabeth will


    frame her so she looks at Ling Howard.


    Ling Howard signals ire Bet not to worry. ire Bet nods and agrees.


    They go to the office. Siri opens the door and leaves. ire Bet sees Bryce pacing back and forth


    in the office.


    It turns out that Bryce has Siri bring ire Bet.


    Bryce turns to see ire Bet. Instead of worrying, he smiles at her. He hurries to ire Bet,


    takes ire Bet’s hand from Ling Howard and gently supports her on the sofa.


    Ling Howard is ignored. He is a little jealous.


    ire Bet says, “Bryce, I...”


    “How do you feel?” Bryce asks with concern.


    ire Bet blushes and reaches out to stop him from approaching. “Bryce, that’s not good.”


    Bryce looks at Ling Howard who is staring at him and feels a little embarrassed. But he coughs twice


    and says, “I’m worried about you. You look so bad!”


    ire Bet shakes her head and frowns, “I’m all right. I am now Leo Howard’s wife. I’m afraid it’s


    not appropriate for you to do so.”


    Bryce nces at Ling Howard with a slight chill in his eyes.


    To his surprise, Ling Howard has no Leo Howard’s gloom or tyranny. He gives him a warm sunny smile.


    “Hello, I’m Ling Howard, Leo Howard’s brother.” Ling Howardughs.


    Bryce nods to him, too. Instead of doubting him, he greets him with a faint smile.


    Bryce thinks there is something wrong with the atmosphere. He shakes his head and finally turns to


    ire Bet and says, “ire, I just think of you as my sister now. I said I wanted to protect you. You


    are someone else’s wife and my sister. I am sincere!”


    ire Bet sighs helplessly and does not answer. She looks around at Ling Howard and she finds


    that his smile is dull and his eyes are slightly wooden.


    ire Bet stops andughs. She thinks Ling Howard is jealous. She is a little speechless.
