Britney shook her head a little sadly.
“I even contacted him before I cback. He didn’t tellanything.”
Sally felt empathetic and said comfortingly, “My brother has always been busy with work, and he’s a little slow. But the fact that he
returned this tmeans that you two are still meant to be.”
“Really?” Britney sighed despondently. “I wouldn’t dare think so, Sally. When will Peter be back?”
“In another week.”
“In another week, huh? If he tells me, then I’ll wait for him and come
back with him.”
Britney sounded a little happy, but there was also a hint of disappointment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSally thought about Britney’s obsession with her brother and couldn’t help but say, “When my brother comes back, I’ll invite you to have dinner with us.”
“Okay!”
Fia heard Sally wanting to set up Peter and Britney and was curious about what kind of person Sally’s brother would be.
Sally was gentle and kind, so her brother should be the same.
“Fia! Once my brother is back, I’ll introduce you two!”
Sally was completely sincere. She wanted to introduce her favorite friends to her brother.
Fia smiled sweetly and said, “Okay. I look forward to it.”
Britney said happily, “Then, we can all have dinner together. We can
also have Jason join us.
“Sure,” Sally said, shooting Britney a smile.
Britney suddenly turned to Fia and asked curiously, “Fia, you’re so pretty. I’m sure you have a boyfriend, right?”
Fia turned shy at the topic, and she calmly said, “I’m already married.”
“What? Sally isn’t even married, and you look younger than her…
You’re married?!”
Fia nodded. “Yes. I got married relatively early.”
“So, what’s your husband like? Is he as good-looking as Jason?”
Fia was stunned. She didn’t understand why Britney was asking such a question.
Britney had an innocent look as she continued, “Jason is quite good looking, and I think he matches your appearance a little. Your husband should also be very handsome, right?”
Sally was also giving Britney a somewhat odd look. The latter seemed like she was innocently asking out of curiosity, but it made them uncomfortable.
Britney suddenly panicked and said, “Oh! Did I say something wrong? I’ve been abroad for a long time, Sally, so I’m rather blunt and say what comes to mind.”
Sally shook her head. “You didn’t say anything wrong, and you guessed it right. Fia’s husband is very handsand talented.”
“Really? Then Fia must be very happy. That’s great! Fia looks like a kind woman who deserves a handsand great husband!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFia smiled. She thought the sas Sally, that Britney was simply speaking bluntly, and there wasn’t any hidden meaning behind her words.
With that conclusion in mind, Fia said gently, “You’ll meet a good husband too.”
“Yeah! I’m sure that’ll happen for you, Britney.” Sally hinted before adding, “My brother won’t be leaving after he returns this time. He should have plenty of free time, so you should look for him more often, and you might get what you want.”
Britney shyly lowered her head. “I hope so.”
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Sally suggested that they take a stroll outside.
Sally and Britney took great care of Fia the entire time, making her feel warm all the way.
“Britney, look after Fia, okay? I’m going to the restroom,” Sally said.
“Sure thing! Don’t worry, Sally, I’ll take good care of her!” Britney replied.
After Sally left, Britney turned her back on Tiger, who had been
following them the whole tfrom behind, and looked at Fia, who was sitting on the sbench.
Her originally innocent eyes turned grim, and the smile on her face was replaced by the slightest hint of hatred.
She clenched her fist, forcefully controlling the jealousy and
resentment that burned in her heart so that she wouldn’t lose control and simply strangle Fia right there and then.
Fia vaguely felt that the atmosphere around her was wrong. She looked at Britney and asked with concern, “Is something wrong?”
“No, it’s nothing.” Britney returned to being an innocent girl with a warm smile. “I just thought of something unpleasant.”
