"Are you brother and sister?" When Rose heard what the girl asked, she also asked Nora with
puzzlement.
She and Nora had been good friends since they were kids. They knew everything about each other,
including their family. So she knew whether she had brothers or sisters, unless he was her distant
relative, or something happened to Nora in the past five years.
Nora didn't say anything.
"I never knew that Nora had an elder brother." Rose said to him seriously.
"I am not her elder brother, but I am the one who is the most qualified to supervise her." The man
denied that he was her elder brother.
After the girl heard what Rose said, her body trembled and she felt that she had been cheated.
"Who are you?" Rose asked him.
"I don't want to tell you." The man refused to answer her question and then he held Nora's wrist again,
and said, "Come back home with me."
"Why do I have to follow your order?" Nora tried not to be controlled by him, "What's more, I don't want
to go back home, and I don't want to talk with you anymore."
"Nora, if you want to make your own ashamed, I can help you." The man said to her with threat.
"I think you are more afraid of being ashamed than me." Nora knew what he was thinking about, "I
didn't do anything wrong, so I won't feel ashamed."
Nora looked at his hand and motioned him to let her go.
The man was so angry but he didn't know what to do.
"Please let me go." Nora asked him again.
"It's inappropriate in public. I think you will become a topic on the hot search on the Internet soon."
Bright said slowly.
But it worked.
The man thought about it and looked at Bright, "Who are you? Do you know her?"
"I am not interested in you." Bright said indifferently, "Don't bother me, please. I want to enjoy my food
quietly."
The man was angrier at once because Bright was so impolite.
He wanted to take Nora away again, and Bright said once again, "Let her go and get out."
His voice was so charming though he was angry, but he really shocked the man.
The man let Nora go at once and then left with anger. The girl looked at them and then followed the
man.
Rose sat down again and said, "Why do you know him?"
Nora sat down and massaged her left wrist, "I am afraid I can't make him get away from me forever."
"What do you mean? You have been married, and he has a girlfriend. Why does he keep bothering
you? Who is he?" Rose was really angry because she thought that he was a womanizer, "He's really a
bad guy."
"He is Alan Way." Nora took a sip of lime tea while biting through the straw.
"He is Alan Way?" Rose felt surprised because she thought that was unbelievable.
"Yes." Nora nodded.
"Isn't he your husband? Why does he get together with another woman?" Rose felt worried, "How can
you allow him to do it?"
"I don't care about that." Nora shook her hand and said, "I told you we got married just for common
benefits. So we never restrain each other because of our marriage."
"What are you doing? I am really confused." Rose didn't understand her, "He is dating another woman.
Why don't you feel sad?"
"I don't care. Look, I am getting together with Mr. Bright for dinner now. What do you think?" Nora felt
relaxed, "I don't take marriage seriously. You also don't need to take it seriously. As a smart woman, we
should work hard by ourselves. Don't rely on men."
Rose frowned and looked at Nora, who was smiling. Rose didn't think she could understand Nora,
though they grew up together and they were best friends.
How did she live all these years? Why did she become so mean? Once, she trusted love. But now she
didn't trust love or men anymore.
Rose saw that Nora was smiling sweetly, but she felt so sorry for her.
She loved Nora so much, but the real Nora had gone. Now, Nora loved without her soul.
"Nora... What's wrong with you?" Rose worried about her, at the same time, she felt self-condemned.
If she hadn't left for five years and even lost contact with Nora, she would know what happened to her.
She should have stayed together with Nora when she was in trouble.
"I just grew up." Nora touched her eyebrows with her fingers and said, "Don't worry. I am fine."
"I can see whether you are fine." Rose thought that she just tried to be strong, so she kept asking her,
"Nora, it has been so many years. Please let it be."
"I don't care about it anymore. Otherwise, I would also go to die. I am really good now."
Rose didn't know whether she was telling the truth, but she knew that it was not so simple for Nora.
"I will stay with you in the future." Rose held one of her arms and said to her gently.
"I will stay with you and Doris." Nora thought that Rose was so sweet, "I have a house, a car and I also
have money. So I will let you live a better life."
Nora held her chin and pretended to be a flirt. However, it made Bright feel uncomfortable.
He pretended to cough to remind Nora.
Rose belonged to him. How could she do that? She wasn't allowed to do that!
Doris looked at him and also felt that they were strange. So she stood up and went to the toilet.
"Are you sick, Mr. Bright? You should drink some water." Nora took her hand back and took a cup of
milk to him.
"Miss Nora has been married, and Mr. Alan is your husband even though you don't care about your
marriage. So you should pay much more attention to your own husband and your family if you have
time and energy. If you become a topic on the hot search on the Internet because of what happened
today, you will be embarrassed." Bright massaged the cup and said, "And I will take care of Rose. You
don't need to worry about her."
"Why? What's the relationship between Rose and you?" Nora asked him, "Aren't you just her working
partner?"
