NovelEnglishBack at home, Audrey poured a cup of tea for Bryson and her phone rang.
She glanced at the name on the screen and then looked at Bryson helplessly, "It's your nephew."
Bryson took a sip of tea and said, "He is also your nephew."
Audrey was speechless.
"Answer it," Bryson said.
"Okay..."
Audrey picked up the phone and turned on the speaker.
"Hello."
"Audrey, this is Simon."
Audrey rubbed her nose, "I know."
"Are you home?" Simon asked.
"Yes, we are home."
Simon seemed to be relieved, "It's good. Then Uncle Bryson should be gone."
Audrey raised his eyebrows.
Harold wore home wear and walked out of the room. He happened to hear Simon called uncle. He
rushed over excitedly.
"What's wrong? My nephew, what can I do for you?" Harold shouted.
Simon heard Harold's voice and angrily said, "You are not my uncle. Don't call me nephew. I will be
your brother-in-law in the future."
Harold snorted, "You had better give up the idea."
"I don't like your words. I am pursuing your sister. It is a matter between me and your sister." Simon
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmuttered, "Perhaps, in the near future, when your sister finds out that I'm her true love, she suddenly
agrees to me."
"The probability of that is smaller than that of Mars crashing into Earth!"
"I won't talk to you. Audrey!"
Audrey replied, "I'm here."
"Audrey, my feelings for you are true. I really want to be with you." Simon hurriedly expressed his
loyalty.
Audrey palmed her face, "Simon, I seem to have told you that we are impossible."
"It can't be denied with just a sentence. Let's have a try. Maybe you will think that we are soul mates!"
"If you have nothing else to say, I will hang up."
"Of course I have."
"Just say it."
"I just received a call. My studies have been transferred to University A. I was admitted." Simon said in
a muffled voice.
He didn't expect that he would receive the call this evening.
"Congratulations."
Harold echoed, "My nephew, I will wait for you at University A. When it starts, I will welcome you in
person."
Simon kept silent. Couldn't Harold shut up?
Simon paused for a moment and continued, "Audrey, I have another important thing to tell you."
"What is it?"
"It is about Uncle Bryson."
"I'm fine. What's wrong?"
Simon was furious, "You are not my uncle. Can you not interrupt? I have something important to tell
your sister."
Harold felt Simon's anger.
He shrugged and did not speak again.
Simon continued.
"Audrey, listen to me carefully."
Audrey replied, "Just tell me. I'm listening."
"Well, Audrey, in the future, can you stay away from Uncle Bryson?" Simon asked.
"Why did you suddenly say this?"
Simon hesitated for a moment, "I feel that there is something wrong. Uncle Bryson looks at you
strangely. He might have some improper thoughts about you!"
Words failed Audrey.
Harold had said Simon had a low IQ and EQ. Now it seemed that it was not true.
Audrey coughed lightly, "You must be mistaken."
"I am a man. Men understand men the best. When he looked at you, he was very gentle. Moreover, he
never liked to be with women before, but I can always see him with you. If he is not interested in you,
why did he treat you like that?"
That's the truth.
"We just happened to have something to discuss," Audrey glanced at Bryson, who was still sitting on
the sofa and drinking tea leisurely.
Simon hurriedly said, "Audrey, you don't know clearly about men. If a man has no interest in a woman,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhow could he be willing to spend time on her? Uncle Bryson is a workaholic and time is money to him.
He can send his assistant or secretary to discuss with you."
Audrey didn't know how to reply.
His analysis was so accurate.
Audrey still tried to explain, "Maybe he just happens to have time. Your uncle won't be interested in
me."
"It's hard to say. Uncle Bryson looks particularly handsome. In fact, he is very sloven at home,
unsociable and boring. More importantly, he has an eccentricity. He has never had any scandals with
women before. The rumors about him are not all groundless." Simon kept discrediting Bryson.
Harold could say nothing.
He looked at Bryson. As expected, Bryson wore a sullen expression which made him shiver.
Harold thought in mind, 'My nephew, you discredited your biological uncle in front of him and his
girlfriend. You are really brave.'
Harold mourned Simon in his heart.
However, Simon continued to complain, "I heard that when Uncle Bryson was in school, he had a
girlfriend. The girl got pregnant later. But he was unwilling to take responsibility and forced her to abort
and send her abroad."
...
Audrey thought, 'You still had the desire to live?
Did you know that your uncle heard everything you just said?'
"Simon, wait..." Audrey tried to interrupt Simon and pull him back from the brink of death.
But Simon ignored her and kept talking non-stop, "I know many other rumors. Uncle Bryson is the
worst scum in the world!"
