If one day he needed her to achieve his goal, would he also use her like using Bella?
Once his principle was broken, there would be a second time, followed by countless times.
She couldn’t imagine, nor was she willing to imagine.
Queeny was in a complicated mood, so she didn’t have much lunch.
She had thought about stopping Felix.
But Bella was willing to go there. If she went to stop Felix, Bella might not be grateful and perhaps she would hate her. Also, Queeny couldn’t enter the banquet of the Zaccardi family without an invitation.
Therefore, in the end, Queeny gave up.
After lunch, she asked Irvin to be here and had a talk with him.
When Irvin arrived, she was sitting in the corridor behind the yard.
Seeing him, she waved at him and said, "Come and have a taste of the new drinks I made."
Irvin came over with a smile. After sitting down, he picked up the glass of drinks she poured for him and tasted it.
"Good. You are still so good at this."
Queeny smiled.
She couldn’t figure out why Felix had become like this, so she asked Irvin for an explanation.
In the past four years, she had been in prison and knew little about the changes and experiences of Felix during these years.
But Irvin was different.
The Kaye family was an ordinary business family, different from the Bissel family.
But Irvin and Felix grew up together. They were like brothers.
This time, Felix had made such a decision. She didn’t believe that Irvin would know nothing about it.
Thinking of this, she stared at Irvin.
Irvin also knew that if there wasn’t anything important, she wouldn’t have specially asked him to come here since Felix was not at home today.
Therefore, after taking a sip, he didn’t beat around the bush but asked directly, "Tell me what you want to know?"
Queeny looked at him and said seriously, "How do you know I have questions?"
Irvin smiled carelessly.
"You and Felix are the same kind of people who won’t talk to me unless you have something important. Tell me what you want to know."
He paused and guessed, "Is it about Felix?"
Queeny didn’t hide anything and nodded.
Irvin’s face suddenly became serious.
He thought for a while and sighed.
"You put me in a dilemma. One of you is my brother and the other is my friend. If you really want to ask me something that I can’t tell you, what should I do? I will offend someone no matter whether I speak or not."
Unexpectedly, when Queeny heard this, she didn’t give in. Instead, she smiled.
"So he is hiding something from me?"
Irvin was stunned.
After a while, he came to his senses and laughed.
Pointing at Queeny, he shook his head and smiled, "You are still so smart. You can find the answer you want from the words even if I didn’t tell you anything."
After a pause, he put on a serious look and asked, "Is there anything wrong between you and Felix?"
