Freddy had the urge to swear but he held himself back.
He glanced at Mashauva and said softly, "I'm going out to answer a phone call. I'll be back soon." As soon as he stood up, he immediately went out without even telling Mashauva whether it was Bruno who was calling or not.
Mashauva was a little disappointed so she could only lean forward against the table while she waited.
On the other hand, Hailey and Lena were not as easy to please. They nudged Mashauva roughly.
"Mashauva, it must be a call from Bruno. Go invite him to our barbecue too." "That's right, it's definitely Bruno calling." Mashauva was confused at their overreactions. "How do you both know?" "Of course we know, it's from experience. If it's not Bruno, why would he go out to answer the call? He can just answer it in here." "That's right." "However, even if it is Beanie calling, there's no need for Freddy to answer it outside. Why would he need to do that?" Mashauva could not understand the situation. It was not that big of a deal, right? Silly, that was because Freddy liked her. She was really a fool since she couldn't even tell. Lena cursed inwardly thinking about that while she kept a straight face. She pretended to be mysterious and said, "Anyway, I'm sure of this, whether you want to believeor not is up to you." Hailey reminded in a low voice, "Actually, you don't have to worry about whether or not the call is from Bruno. Just call out to him. If it isn't him, then you can let it be. But if it is, then he'll know that you're here." "That's right. Once he hears your voice, he'll clooking for you, right? Don't you want Bruno to cand look for you?" She did want that.
That was the only thing that Mashauva could think of. She then quickly stood up and dashed out, and she saw that Freddy was still on the phone.

"Freddy, is that Beanie on the line?" Once he heard Mashauva's voice, Freddy instantly felt that he was in deep trouble. All of the explaining he had just done would be for naught then, and Bruno might even beat him up when he gets back hlater! "Freddy Castle?" As expected, Bruno's voice fell a little deeper as he called out Freddy's full name.
Freddy felt that he was done for and could not even answer him.
"I want the address." "Okay, I'll send you the location right away." After ending the call, Freddy immediately sent the location to Bruno. Then, he bent down slightly to look at Mashauva as he said, "Little brat, I only cout to answer a call. Couldn't you have waited for a bit?" He sounded a little anxious yet helpless.
Once Bruno arrived, Mashauva would not care about him at all.
Mashauva pouted and murmured, "I was just asking. Are you angry, Freddy?" "How would I dare to be angry at you? Con, let's go inside first. Bruno will be coming later." Freddy was indeed upset, but not to the extent of being angry. If he failed that time, he could just try again next tHe knew that he was in for a prolonged battle that would last several years, so there was no need to be so hurried with, everything.
Moreover, Mashauva was too young to understand anything. If Freddy had confessed his feelings to her at that time, he would be worse than an animal.
Other high school students might have started dating a long tago. After all, youngsters then matured rather early. However, Mashauva et was naive because she was well-protected. Therefore, it was impossible for Freddy to tell her his feelings before she understood what love was.
"Is Beanie coming?" As expected, Mashauva's eyes lit up when she heard Bruno's name. He had never seen her eyes so bright ever since they arrived at the barbecue. Indeed, he really was nothing as compared to Bruno, Fortunately, Bruno was not Mashauva's biological brother.
Soon, Bruno arrived. Hailey and Lena had been wanting to speak to him since the birthday party last time, but he took Mashauva and left as soon as he arrived that day. They could only watch his back as he left.
That was something they regretted upon. However, they never expected to see him again that day. Once Bruno arrived, the pair echoed Mashauva when she called out to him.
Obviously, Bruno only responded to Mashauva before he found a seat to settle into. He pulled a chair to his side and said to Mashauva, "Chere." Mashauva initially sat next to Freddy, but as Bruno waved his hand, she immediately got up from her seat and sat down next to Bruno.
Freddy was so dejected that he said nothing to Bruno.
Bruno took care of Mashauva as they ate the barbecued food, so he did not eat much. His expression did not seem pleased and his gaze was calm as he glanced at Freddy from tto time.
However, his calm gaze carried a coldness that was like a knife. Freddy felt chills run down his spine so he did not eat much as well as he lost his appetite.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLena and Hailey had been trying to chat with Bruno the entire time. At first, he would respond to them for Mashauva's sake by nodding his head occasionally or giving them sshort answers. However, the two girls grew chattier, which annoyed him.
Bruno was displeased, so he naturally did not have a good expression.
He pursed his lips and looked at the girls in displeasure.
"You shouldn't talk with your mouth full. Didn't anyone teach you that?" The pair were still smiling earlier, but once they heard what Bruno said, their smiles disappeared in an instant.
A moment later, Hailey's face flushed red as she bit her lower lip. In the end, she could not beat Waving her dignity she stepped on so she threw her cutleries on the floor, got up and left.
"Hailey?" Mashauva did not understand what was going on. She wanted to get up and chase after her, but Bruno pulled her back. "Since you're here, you should finish eating before you leave." Lena was also slightly annoyed at first, but after she watched Hailey leave, a thought suddenly occurred to her and a smirk graced her lips.
Since Hailey had given up such an opportunity, was it not her chance then? Only a person from a well-to-do family background would ey could care about such quality. Hailey not stand a comment being passed on her, and yet still dreamed of marrying into a rich and powerful family.
Lena was different from Hailey, so she continued to persuade Mashauva with a smile on her face. "Ignore her, she's just throwing a tantrum. Eat up, then we can go back to school." "Okay." After they finished their meal, Lena turned to Bruno and said gently, "I'm sorry, Bruno. My classmate has a bad temper. I'll apologize on behalf for what she did." "There's no need." Bruno glanced at her indifferently. He then looked at Mashauva, who was beside him. "Ready to go back?"
"Yep." Mashauva wiped her mouth before tugging at Bruno's sleeve. "Beanie, don't be so fierge towards my classmates. They're not familiar with you and don't know you well. They'll think that you're a bad person." X
