As soon as he finished speaking, the man on the bed finally showed some emotion. Draven raised his head and looked at Ryan.
“What’s wrong?”
“What’s wrong? What can he do? He went to Cici all day long to please her and then went to her house to have a free meal!”
Ryan didn’t have the time to pay attention to Draven. He tapped heavily on his phone screen with his fingers and sent unkind words and complaints to Bruno.
Bruno didn’t have time to check his phone.
After dinner, he was called over by Jaquan alone.
Obviously, he had something to tell him, so he didn’t disturb the others.
There were roses in a garden, they were of all kinds of colors and looked neat and lush. Under the light in the small yard, they looked more delicate and charming.
Jaquan did not speak. Instead, he picked up a tool and trimmed a few withered flowers.
Bruno didn’t understand what he meant. He followed behind Jaquan and said, “Brother, have something to say to me?”
Jaquan chuckled and said, “My sister hasn’t agreed yet. You shouldn’t call me brother.”
Bruno also smiled. “She will accept me. Anyway, you’ll have to get used to it in the future, right?”
Only then did Jaquan put down the tools and look back at him with interest.
Bruno did not dodge.
He just stood there, neither humble nor pushy. His back was straight, like a guard.
After looking at each other for a long time, Jaquan relaxed.
He washed his hands, invited Bruno to sit down under the light, and poured a cup of water. “Have some water after dinner. Mr. West, you don’t mind, do you?”
“Of course not. I’ll do whatever you say.”
Bruno sat down in a well-behaved manner.
This time, Jaquan finally got down to business.
“I won’t interfere in Cierra’s relationship. I will respect her. If you really have the ability to be with her, I will also agree. If you don’t have the ability, I think you know very well that there is no need for you to come to me in the future.”
Bruno curled his lips, and his eyes flashed. “I’ll work hard. I hope I can come to you more in the future.”
“We don’t know.”
He turned on the tablet on the table and swiped casually on the screen.
Under the moonlight, he looked colder.
“My father and I have investigated the matter of the West family. Those things had nothing to do with you. From my view, your way of dealing with it is quite admirable.”
He had such a ruthless heart at such a young age. It was true that he was capable of becoming the head of the West family.
He would be a good business partner.
But if he wanted to be with Cici, he needed to consider it.
Bruno was well aware of this problem. “The West family used to be a mess. Since you can find out about it, you should also know that I have dealt with it. There are still a lot of things to be done. Since you admire me, I won’t let you make a mistake.”
