Chapter 232
"Why are you here?" I asked in surprise.
"Of course it's me. I haven't seen Chelsea for a long time."
The man in front of me smiled at me, but I couldn't see the smile in his eyes.
Without beating around the bush, I said straightforwardly, "Callen, you've already gone through so many things. I thought that things between us would have ended a long time ago."
"I don't want it to end. How can it end?" Callen chuckled.
After that, he took a step forward and approached me. I subconsciously stepped back, but he wrapped his arms around my waist and said, "If I see you, I'll hide. When I saw you in the car just now, I still couldn't bear to leave Harrison."
His tone was frivolous and sarcastic, which made people feel uncomfortable. I knew that I couldn't push him away now, so I just stood there and tried not to lean on him.
"That's my man. It's normal that he can't bear to leave. Why does Mr. Gibbs start to care about other people's women now?" I covered my mouth and chuckled.
He's not the only one who knows how to mock others. I can also mock him.
Callen looked at me with a smile and said softly, "Anyway, we are old acquaintances. It's reasonable for us to care about you."
He didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in my words, but he didn't know whether he didn’t hear it or he pretended that he didn't.
They had known each other for so many years. In my impression, Callen was not a person who would swallow his anger or pretend that he could not understand words. He was arrogant and could not accept any evaluation or criticism from others. Then what did he mean by standing in front of me with a simple and innocent Callen?
This idea was not hard to imagine. In the end, it should be in Harrison's hands. I didn't have anything useful, but it didn't mean that Harrison didn't have it. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
I sneered and turned my head away from him. "A straightforward person doesn't resort to insinuations. If you have something to say, just say it."
"Go up and sit for a while?" Callen pointed up with his index finger, which meant that he should go to my house to sit for a while.
Seeing this, I also smiled. I felt that there was no one in the world who was more shameless than Callen. But thinking about it, I felt that I was stupid. This was not the first day, I should have known about it.
When he looked back for me and told me that he hoped to give birth to a child for me, I had to understand that he was different from ordinary people.
I looked down at his hand and said, "Let go of your hand now. I may call for help."
"What are you shouting for?" Callen's tone was frivolous. "To harass you?"
"You want to know? Do you want to have a try?" After that, I pretended to call him, but Callen let go of my hand in the next moment and took a step back.
Just one step was too close to me. I took two steps back until I was sure that I would not have any physical contact with him. Then I said, "It's impossible to go up. I just want to know what happened to you today."
"I also want to ask you, don't you want to pursue the matter of mother-in-law anymore?" Callen asked in a low voice.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, during the lunch break, no one passed by the entrance of the community, as if it was specially made space for us to communicate.
As I looked at Callen, the disgust and disgust in my heart grew deeper and deeper...
Callen's expression was serious, and he said to me in a tone of disappointment, "Chelsea, I can see how nice mother-in-law was to you back then. Now that she has left the world in such an unclear way, I don't believe you can stand it."
"You don't deserve to say that, do you?" I raised my head and looked at him with a sneer.
There was a little uneasiness in his eyes, but soon it returned to normal. "I know you hate me, but there are many things that I can't do as I want. I used to say that I was pregnant or a son. You also know that my mother's thoughts are old-fashioned, and there is really no way for her to do that..."
"Don't talk about the past anymore. It doesn't make sense." I interrupted him.
With my back to him, I said slowly, "The moment I received your text message, I knew you would come to me. I just didn't expect it to come so fast."
"It seems that we still have a tacit understanding," Callen said with relief.
Hearing this, I couldn't help laughing. I didn't know why, but I found that Harrison always said some strange words that made me want to laugh.
"Does he have a tacit understanding?" He said. "If he really has a tacit understanding, he shouldn't have appeared in front of me, and he shouldn't have disturbed my life again and again like he did today. Every time I forget him, I will recall it again."
I hate this kind of life, and I hate him even more!
Thinking of this, I stopped smiling and turned back to look at him, saying word by word, “If you think you have a tacit understanding, don't appear in front of me. And I don't need you to worry about my family. I'm just a exhusband-in-law."
"Chelsea!" Fang Liang growled.
Looking at his ugly face, I felt much better in an instant, as if my chest was blocked.
"Thank you for coming to see me today, but I hope there won't be such a chance in the future. After all, Maisy is still waiting for you at home." I said to him in a soft voice.
Without waiting for his reply, I turned and left.
When I went upstairs, I heard Callen coming to me and calling my name, but I didn't turn back or agree. I just let him call me.
This kind of man shouldn't give him any face, in case he went too far!
The episode of seeing Callen was soon forgotten by me, and the natural gas at home was indeed not closed, just as I expected. I breathed a sigh of relief when it was closed. Fortunately, I felt that there was no special reason for me to come back, otherwise the accident would really be serious.
When I was free at home, I was going to find Sienna. But as soon as I opened the door, I saw Sienna standing at my door. "Why are you here? When did you come here?”
Sienna squeezed out a smile on her pale face. "Harrison called me and said that you didn't go to work and wanted to come to me. I thought you might come back."
"A little bit of mutual understanding,” I said.
Since she was already here, there was no need for me to go to her house. So I took Sienna to rest at home and said, "How long did you ask for leave? Why don't you go to work? Won't the boss trouble you?"
"You asked so many questions. How should I answer?" Sienna said with a smile.
I pinched her face and said helplessly, "It's all because I care about you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't care."
Other people's affairs had nothing to do with me, but Sienna's affairs definitely had something to do with me. We grew up together as good friends and sisters.
Looking at her pale face, I felt distressed and glad at the same time. I would accompany her to spend these days slowly, and she would be better and better in the future.
"I came here today to tell you something." Sienna looked at me seriously.
I quickly sat down and asked, "Tell me what it is."
"I may have to leave for a while."
