Bruce is confused, “What do you mean by that?”
“It literally means I’m not interested in fame and wealth anymore. I don’t care if you give everything to Derrick. All I want now is only one thing.”
Anson smiles calmly.
He has never seen his son smile from the heart, like this.
“Are you being ironic here?” Bruce is disturbed.
“I’ll tell you all later. Anyway, you don’t want me to fight with my brother, do you? Then I’ll do what you want.” Anson says. He turns away and walks into the room, leaving Bruce stay in a trance.
Originally, Bruce tries to assign responsibility to his son. But now it seems that he has succeeded by accident. He is really curious about what happened to his son, the one who often runs away from home and is so stubborn, now changes his mind?
He cannot hold back his curiosity because he talks to Anson just now and notices he keeps peeping into the room. There is a kind of softness lies in his eyes.
Bruce quietly opens the door. He looks through the door and sees Anson is looking at a girl on the bed. This girl looks familiar to him. Doesn’t he see her at the party? Turns out she is brought in by his son.
After seeing this, he finally understands what is going on. His son is grown up.
With no second thought, he closes the door gently and leaves with a smile.
Inside the room.
Miya feels dopey with a severe headache. She opens her eyes and sees Alex in her blurred vision. She rushes forward to hug the man without hesitation.
“Do you know how long I’ve been waiting? Why take you so long to come here...” Her voice sounds like she is spoiled.
The man she hugs is happy to hear this. He can’t help but hugging her back.
“Why you come to me so late?” Miya says with a trace of a complaint, “Alex… Do you know how much I miss you? I can’t live without you. No matter what happens next, you should stay with me. We should never fight again.”
Though Anson is happy at first, hearing Alex’s name makes his heart chilled. He just wonders how she becomes interested in him so soon and even says that kind of sentimental confession. It turns out that he is just a substitute for someone.
“Sorry, I think you’ve got the wrong person. I’m not Alex. I’m Anson.” Although his heart is hurt, he still wants to make it clear.
At this time, Miya realizes she is being frivolous. She gets up from him quickly.
“It’s getting late now. I should leave.” She’d better leave here.
She stands up and finds Anson stand up as well. He blocks her way.
