Chapter 349 : Malice abounds
Lindsey unhappily frowned, and his eyes abruptly became stern. “This is the way you treat your rescuer?”
Kayden’s face changed slightly, and suddenly looked at her with a hurt look, the look as if he had been abandoned.
A few moments later, he slanted an eye breeze to aim at Bruce. “You are so disobedient, I said I would come back to you, shouldn’t you treat me to a meal.”
“It’s not that easy to buy dinner.” Lindsey’s face floated up like a spring smile, but unfortunately the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes. “And please, Mr. Kayden, answer my question first.”
Bruce saw Kayden and held Lindsey’s hand tightly without moving, his eyes sharp and unmatched.
If not for the wrong occasion, he really wanted to take Lindsey away immediately.
Tightening the force in his hand, he was just about to ask her if she wanted to go rest first, when he heard Kayden laugh, “I’m surprised you haven’t changed after all these years.”
Lindsey raised an eyebrow, politely parted from him, pulled Bruce and turned to leave.
Kayden’s sudden appearance here tonight must have other moves in store, and she and Bruce had to be careful.
After exchanging pleasantries with the ministers, Lindsey and Bruce found their seats and sat down wearily.
Bruce held back for a long time, sneaking in to bite her ear while the meeting was still going on. “That crazy guy’s got the wrong look in his eye, why don’t we go back first.”
“He’s been watching me, I have a hunch, but Hector can’t find out the slightest hint.” Lindsey gripped his hand tightly, cold sweat lurking on his forehead. “Sanguine has brought him back, it seems he is ready for a big fight.”
“Don’t be afraid, I will protect you and the child.” Bruce sank his face and glanced over at Kayden without moving.
Lindsey nodded unconsciously, and was just about to say that she wanted to defend him, which she probably couldn’t, when she saw Edward coming this way with Lily.
Kayden’s seat was not in the same area as theirs, but Lindsey saw that Edward seemed to say hello to him as he came over.
Waiting for them both to take their seats, Lindsey lowered her voice and asked him when Kayden had returned to B City and why everyone didn’t know.
“Just got off the plane an hour ago.” Edward blushed hard. “I heard it from the minister, too.”
“No wonder no one knows the news!” Lindsey clenched her fists and leaned unconsciously toward Bruce.
He must have planned this trip for a long time, no one knows how he got rid of those guards, went back to B City in a dignified manner, and got the invitation to this meeting.
“Don’t worry, there are so many people, he can’t do anything, and with me around, I won’t let anything happen to you or the baby.” Bruce inexplicably headache, comfort her some, pick up the phone to Jack to call.
Rodolfo had come to the door a few times over New Year’s Eve, and he’d had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he hadn’t really thought that he was doing it for Kayden.
When the call was answered, he expressed his concern and his tone was serious and inexplicable. “You should mention to Grandpa that Lindsey is not well enough to make any mistakes.”
Jack did not know what to say, Bruce hung up the phone, his face more gloomy.
The meeting began, Lindsey worried about Lily too boring, took the initiative to switch seats with Bruce, sitting next to her.
The format of this meeting was different from the previous ones, not the serious one, where you speak and then I speak, but a more relaxed atmosphere.
Not only did we talk about the future development of painting and calligraphy, we also talked about some interesting stories of famous artists, which was not so dull.
If you have a good story to tell, you basically won’t be bored.
Lindsey listened for a while and saw Kayden taking pictures of himself with his phone.
This guy may have a good-looking face, but he’s a nutcase.
Fortunately, it was after the wedding that he came to the door, if before, she could really cut off her belly and die. Save who is not good, have to save a crazy person.
The end of the discussion session, the next is to socialize.
The atmosphere became much more relaxed once the ministers and Professor Lee left, and Lindsey, seeing that Bruce and Edward were busy socializing, took the opportunity to drag Lily out for some air, while secretly watching Kayden’s movements.
The sky outside the window was colored a light orange by neon, a full moon hung high in the sky, and the cool light filtered through the window, painting the ground silvery white.
Lindsey looked at Lily, who was obviously a little blessed, but with heavy dark circles under her eyes, and thought in concern, “I haven’t seen you and Edward go out lately, is there a conflict?”
“No, just throwing up a lot.” Lily wearily tugged at the corners of her lips. “Pregnancy is too hard.”
“You’ll be fine after three months, ask the maid to make some light dishes, don’t eat greasy food all the time.” Lindsey patted her soothingly and laughed, “I’ve thrown up before, but it shouldn’t be as bad as yours.”
“It’s not as bad as me, it’s Karen.” Lily pursed her lips and smiled. “When I saw her this afternoon, she even said that pregnancy was contagious and that we were the ones who got her pregnant.”
“Pfft …” Lindsey burst out laughing, it was obviously someone who couldn’t fight, how could they be blamed for it.
After chatting for a while, the two walked back to the venue and Lindsey was pestered by Kayden just as she sat down.
“You said you’d buy me dinner, you must.” Kayden sat next to Lindsey and looked at her pitifully. “I came here to see you this time!”
“Wait, how did you know I would be at this event?” Lindsey pretended to be puzzled, something she had never said before. “Say it clearly or I’ll get someone to beat you up!”
Kayden hooked her lips, a grim smile floating on her lips. “I know what you’re doing, I know you’ve been to the East River, I know you’re trapped in the valley, and I know that you didn’t listen to me and married another man.”
Just as the words left his mouth, Bruce suddenly walked over, his face unhappy as he gestured for him to get up.
Kayden got up with a raised eyebrow, thinking to himself that Bruce was really a wife protector, but unfortunately this time he was here to claim someone, and he couldn’t protect them at all!
Lindsey reached out and took Bruce’s hand, tilted her head slightly, and looked calmly at Kayden. “I’m sorry, we’ve got things to do, we’ll go first.”
Kayden turned cold, narrowing his eyes and blocking their path. “You can’t leave.”
“You want me to buy you dinner, no problem.” Lindsey knew he wasn’t a normal person and knew he couldn’t be rude, so she had to back off. “But I’m very uncomfortable right now, so I’ll treat you when I have time.”
“Really?” Kayden’s eyes floated with joy, and the smile on his face had more than a little sincerity. “Don’t lie to me.”
“She wouldn’t lie to you.” Bruce said, looking at Kayden with a meaningful gaze. “I heard that Professor Depp has been suffering from health problems recently.
“Much better.” Kayden answered without thinking, “You know my grandfather?”
“No!” Bruce embraced Lindsey with a sullen look on his face and prepared to leave.
Lindsey smiled apologetically at him, nestled in Bruce’s arms, and walked bashfully out the door.
“Lindsey, we’ll see you again!” Kayden narrowed his eyes dangerously, his gaze burning into her back. “I’ve survived, and survived all these years, and it’s all because of you.”
“…” Lindsey suddenly felt that the world was full of malice.
At that time she was only out of good intentions to save people, should have known to save up a crazy person, should have let him drown in the sea in the first place.
From the moment he appeared, he looked at her with possessive eyes, which made Lindsey vaguely have the illusion of digging her own hole and burying herself.
Once in the lounge, Bruce instructed the guards to protect Lindsey, turned back to talk to Professor Lee, and turned back to leave the venue in a hurry.
Edward and Lily followed, only to be stopped by Kayden, who couldn’t find Lindsey anywhere, and insisted that he lead the way to Lindsey.
“I really don’t know where she’s going.” Edward looked cautious. “Now that you’re back, sooner or later you’ll run into her again.”
“I want to watch her every day!” Kayden was suddenly angry. “It’s fine if you don’t take me to her, give me her cell phone number.”
“I don’t have her cell phone number.” Edward put on a lovey-dovey look and spread his hands. “Her lover is very fierce!”
Kayden stared at him for a few seconds, turned his head and ran all the way out the door.
Edward watched his back disappear behind the door and immediately took out his cell phone to call Lindsey, telling her not to go out to events if she had nothing to do lately.
On the other hand, Lindsey probably guessed that he was talking about Kayden and calmly agreed.
It was after ten o’clock when she got home, and Lindsey was feeling a little hungry, so she had logistics order a bowl of noodles.
Bruce came out of the shower and sat down with a smile on his face. “Not enough to eat, I’ll give you another bowl.”
“Enough, I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to finish it.” Lindsey glanced at him discontentedly and asked vaguely, “Who is that Professor Depp you were talking about today, how come I’ve never heard of him.”
“A very reputable military research expert.” Bruce leaned back casually and lazily and continued, “Rodolfo is a student he brought out, Kayden is also a genius, just a little problem here.”
Bruce pointed to his own head, explained: “He was very autistic as a child, later a little better, but has formed a more paranoid character.”
Lindsey nodded with understanding, “No wonder.”
“I think he came back this time because of Professor Depp’s hospitalization.” Bruce drew a tissue and carefully wiped away the soup that had spilled into the corner of her mouth. “If it weren’t for his mental problems, he’d be no less successful than Rodolfo.”
Lindsey was amazed. “That good?”
More than impressive, this guy developed a new generation of a certain important war weapon on his own within a year. All the data basically rely on the brain to calculate by itself, this is no longer a prodigy, but an alien.
“Awesome enough to make people look up no matter when.” Bruce laughed again. “But even if he’s awesome, he’s still a little bit worse than me.”This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
“Why?” Lindsey asked him smoothly, disbelief written all over her face.
Bruce reached up and rubbed the top of her head, smiling blandly. “Because I’m married to you.”
Because I’m married to you. … Tsk, this guy is getting really good at telling love stories.
Lindsey contentedly continued to eat noodles, but still felt uneasy in his heart. After saving Kayden back then, he has been foolish, I did not expect that after four years, he still did not give up.
Bruce is also uneasy, one side of the people to keep an eye on Kayden, the other side of the 24-hour follow Lindsey.
After two days of peace and quiet, the fund’s office was basically finished. This day Lindsey did not want to go to the office, so she invited Karen and Larissa to come over for a visit.
Larissa lives nearby, and as soon as she walked in the door, she exaggeratedly shouted, “Lindsey, is there a fire in your backyard!”
