The Billionaire’s Treasure Wife

Chapter 137: Just because you are Mrs. Grant



The air was abruptly silent, Lindsey’s hand movements paused, blinking innocently.

The first time I saw her, I thought she was in love with Bruce because of the kiss she had just received.

Her first kiss was lost without warning …

The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing. I pity him and depend on him, that is not love. And you’re a good friend to me, a good big brother, that’s all.”

Edward looked at her defiant face and the anger in his chest surged again, yet meeting her innocent, clear gaze, any more anger subsided silently.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Lindsey saw that he did not say anything, so she had to be generous and said that she would not bother with him, but the next time would not be an exception.

“What are the requirements to be your boyfriend?” Edward is still undeterred, but the look on his face, has returned to his usual suave appearance: “I’ll try my best to meet the standard.”

“Edward,” Lindsey got up, turned her back on him and took a step to the window, smiling with a soft voice: “Bruce is closer than family.”

Edward’s face floated thick with disappointment as he laughed to himself, “I see.”

“…” Lindsey originally wanted to say, how could you possibly understand. After all, not everyone is fatherless and feels abandoned from time to time. The words came to her lips, but in the end she didn’t say anything.

The air was silent again, Lindsey slowly turned around, the look on her face was as calm and bland as ever.

Edward looked at her with fascination, handsome face with a soft light, completely relieved.

The reception lasted until almost midnight, when Lindsey left the venue holding Edward’s arm and was again besieged by reporters.

Not far behind her, Charlotte, pushing Bruce in his wheelchair, was no better off than they were.

In the midst of the noise, an eloquent and sharp voice rang out clearly: “Excuse me, Mr. Grant, what do you think about your girlfriend, Miss Aurora, standing for a brand.”

As we all know, outside of The Grant family’s industry, the luxury brands that Charlotte represents in her hands have received the most media attention.

Lindsey didn’t expect the reporter to question Bruce to his face, and he didn’t expect him to reply in a nice voice: “I’m sorry, I think you misunderstood, there was, is, and is only one girlfriend of mine.”

Bruce smiled and looked at the camera, under the thick sword eyebrows, a pair of cold deep eyes, exuding a mysterious seductive power: “She is also present tonight, just do not want to show up.”

The scene was silent for a second, and then boiled up instantly. Not only the media reporters, but also the guests at the reception, all followed the chicken blood, asking each other about the identity of his girlfriend.

Bruce smiled again, his deep gaze flicked to Lindsey, if not to his face: “In the near future, she will also become my wife.”

The magnesium lights were on and off, and the gossiping reporters quickly left Lindsey and Edward behind and swarmed around Bruce: “Excuse me, Mr. Grant, did she come to the reception alone?”

The first reporter to ask the question was obviously so idiotic that it drew laughter as soon as it was said.

“Mr. Grant, is your girlfriend still here?” Someone shouted again, “Can you tell me what she’s wearing.”

Bruce satisfied with the reaction of the reporters, without showing traces of waving a hand toward Lindsey, face smile bright as if March spring: “She is shy, so …”

“Let’s go.” Edward heart stuffed touched the chin, thought Bruce is also too not something.

The actual jokes are so serious.

Lindsey unconsciously responded, his eyes passed through the noisy crowd, met Bruce’s gaze in the air, and smiled faintly.

His acting skills are as good as ever.

The buzz at the end of the reception, not surprisingly, became the next day’s gossip headlines, but unfortunately the target changed.

Lindsey wasn’t concerned about it and walked to the beauty school early in the morning to wait for Professor Lee to arrange a job.

The project mentioned by Professor Lee is a cultural exchange month organized by the Ministry of Culture of country H and the Ministry of Culture of country F.

Professor Lee, as one of the leading masters of Chinese studies in China, has a very heavy burden on his shoulders.

At 9:00, Professor Lee returned from the meeting, greeted Lindsey with a smile, and went straight to the point: “For the calligraphy part, you will lead the arrangement, and I will pick a few students from the Academy to assist.”

“Professor Lee, I’m too young for that.” Lindsey wasn’t being self-effacing, but she thought she was not up to the level of communication with foreign scholars.

“This cultural exchange month is officially sponsored, the main purpose is to strengthen the young people of the two countries, the exchange and common discussion in the arts.” Professor Lee picked up his teacup and took a sip of tea, then said, “Your calligraphy is very distinctive, and the insights are different from others, that’s why I highly recommend it.”

Lindsey listened and quickly extinguished the small fire of her vain heart and playfully voted, “In that case, Lindsey will do a good job for this event and not disgrace your old man.”

“For the specific work, I will let Assistant Chen communicate with you.” Professor Lee was satisfied with her attitude and looked at her with a loving gaze, “I heard from Edward that you guys did a movie some time ago, I didn’t know you were a versatile person.”

Lindsey sweat, did not expect Edward even told him this, cheeks suddenly reddened: “Professor Lee praise, I also catch the duck on the tree. As for the result, we have to wait for the market test to know.”

Professor Lee laughed and talked some more, followed by a clear explanation of the work and went to the meeting again.

Lindsey came out of his office and followed his assistant directly to the culture department, and after a busy day, it was already noon.

Lindsey took a taxi back to the neighborhood where her apartment is located, looked at the time, got out and found a clean restaurant and went in to order food.

After ordering, she found a window seat and looked up to see Bruce pushing open the door, followed by Hector, who was expressionless.

“You’re not busy, huh?” Lindsey author did not move, a breathless look at him: “careful to lose the company’s old capital.”

“Don’t worry, there’s absolutely no problem raising you.” Bruce smiled and stopped by her side, followed by taking out a pile of newspapers and putting them on the table: “Explain.”

“Explain what?” Lindsey picked up the newspaper suspiciously, scanned the headline, and was stumped.

Edward was so impatient with his love that he took his girlfriend to the break room for a secret meeting in the middle of the reception.

Lindsey’s face is getting darker and darker as she reads the article by article.

“What do you care about me?” Lindsey stretched out her index finger and poked the newspaper with surprising force, the pile of blurred photos: “And, what the hell is all this shooting.”

“I mean, when did you guys meet in secret, I didn’t know.” Bruce looked straight at her, “What did you do.”

Lindsey glared right back, “Eat, I’m starving, there’s so little out there, not enough to eat.”

Bruce looked at her noncommittally and didn’t say anything.

Lindsey looked at him like this, her heart faintly flushed with anger: “What’s in your head? If I wanted to kiss him secretly, I would have done it already, why wait until now.”

“It means that you still have a good feeling about him.” Bruce’s voice grew cold, obviously suppressing his anger: “Isn’t that so.”

Lindsey looked at him with a headache and laughed in exasperation, “Bruce, we’re not related, so who are you to control me.”

Bruce blushed and said shamelessly, “Just because you’re Mrs. Grant.”

Lindsey was so angry that she picked up the newspaper and rolled it up, hitting it hard.

Bruce put up his hands and tried desperately to block it for a while, and had to smile bitterly and beg for mercy: “Okay, okay, it’s all my fault, don’t be angry.”

“Humph!” Lindsey puffed out an exasperated grunt, unfolded the newspaper, and looked at it with interest.

Last night, he was so cool at the reception, there was no reason why the entertainment newspapers didn’t cover it. But after going through all the papers, I didn’t see any news about him, not even a picture.

Bruce saw her frowning and pursing her lips, and with a doting smile he kindly explained, “I didn’t let them report it.”

Once Lindsey heard this, she understood why all the reports were directed at Edward. Tilting her head, she suddenly leaned over and said with a smile, “Good job!”

Bruce flinched, then laughed.

He hadn’t been so happy and defensive since Lindsey had been forced out by his eldest brother. When he saw her smile, his heart was suddenly soft, and the depression and unhappiness that had built up in his heart was washed away.

And the kiss last night, more like he was poisoned, deeply fascinated by her sweet taste.

He wanted her so badly that he went crazy.

Lindsey didn’t know what was on his mind, and briefly asked about his recent treatment, her brow furrowed.

Dr. Hunter seemed to be in a bit of a hurry, which was not good, and if things went wrong, the consequences would be unthinkable.

“I’ll make time to see Dr. Hunter as soon as I can in the next couple of days to discuss your treatment options.” Lindsey pressed his brow and suddenly and suddenly checked his pulse.

After a few minutes of careful tasting, Lindsey withdrew her hand and smiled with feigned relief. “Don’t rush to run when you’re just standing up, train for a while to get your legs back to function.”

Bruce’s face changed slightly, she actually knew she could already stand up!

“What eyes that is?” Lindsey gave him a blank look, picked up her teacup and took a sip of tea.

The uneasiness that had appeared last night was getting stronger at this point, so strong that she couldn’t bear to bother with him about his forced kiss last night. In her absence these months, the treatment has gone so wrong!

After lunch, Lindsey worriedly went back to the beauty school, while Bruce went back to the office.

After a busy afternoon, Lindsey came downstairs with a pile of information in her arms, exhausted. She suddenly had a bad feeling when she saw Edward standing lazily by the car with a blue face from afar.

The sky was overcast, Edward’s face against the light looked a bit blurred, but only the bitter and untamed eyes, clear enough to make people’s spine shiver.

Lindsey slowed down and thought back carefully to what she had read in the newspaper at noon, and suddenly understood why he was so angry.

The Hawke family is a business start, but in this city, but also one of the most powerful families.

Edward as the new head of The Hawke family, openly and female celebrity love is just, actually also engaged in secret meetings, kissing, all kinds of disgraceful behavior, this is not to The Hawke family shame it.

Although all this is Bruce dry, but Lindsey heart, or full of guilt.

Sheepishly to his side, Lindsey pulled back the corners of her mouth and smiled unnaturally: “Edward, you seem very unhappy.”
