Chapter 40
At ten o’clock in the evening, even after a busy day, Anna had to rush to the Stuat family again because of her mother.
Different from the previous two times, Philip Andrew followed her this time.
Bright Stuat leaned on the sofa in the living room with a rigid face. He originally wanted to wait for Anna to come and put on a posture as an elder. When he heard the sound and turned his head, he saw Philip Andrew coming, and the whole person was like a punctured ball, and the momentum was gone.
Anna handed the gift box to the servant: “Dad.”
At this time, Bright Stuat got up from the sofa and greeted him with a flattering face: ” President Andrew , you are also here.”
After saying this, he looked at Anna with resentment: “Mr. Andrew is coming. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
“Just accompany Anna for a trip. Mr. Stuat doesn’t have to care about me.”Philip Andrew said faintly.
Bright Stuat ‘s face froze for a moment, but it soon returned to normal, and he laughed and said, “you and Anna have just come from the auction, and they should not have supper yet? Just in time, dinner is ready at home…”
“We won’t eat dinner.”Anna smiled and interrupted Bright Stuat ‘s words.
He suddenly looked unhappy.
Anna only pretends not to know.
If Philip Andrew didn’t come with her, she is not qualified to stay here today and have dinner with the Stuat family .
Bright Stuat will leave as soon as he finishes asking, right?
“Philip will hurry back to his old house later.”
Bright Stuat pursed his mouth and didn’t speak.
The scene froze for a moment.
Fortunately, a sharp voice came from the corridor on the second floor: “Dad, is Anna coming? She dares…”
Selina came from the corner of the stairs. When she saw the people in the living room, her voice immediately stuck in her throat.
“… President Andrew also came.”
She slowly walked down the stairs. Her originally ferocious expression suddenly changed, and her face was still a little shy.
Anna looked pale: “Dad, didn’t you say you had something to ask me? Philip will go to the old house later, so let’s not waste time.”
Speaking, she sat beside Philip Andrew . Although there was no unnecessary action, the atmosphere between the two seemed to be filled with a familiar feeling of intimate lovers.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Selina ‘s eyes were red with jealousy.
“It’s this thing. I just told you on the phone.”Bright Stuat coughed, looked at Anna and asked tentatively, “what’s the matter between you and Mr. Quiva ? You owe him…”
“Don’t listen to my sister.”Anna smiled.
As she spoke, she cast a glance in the direction of Selina .
Selina noticed his provocation and immediately pissed off: “how can I talk nonsense? It’s true. This is what Mr. Quiva said himself. Do you still want to sophistry!”
Then she looked at Bright Stuat : “what I said is true. Old Mr. Quiva also gave her his picture of five horses.”
Bright Stuat hesitated to look at Anna : “this… Anna , if there is such a thing, it is good for our family. You don’t need to hide it.”
“There is such a thing.”Anna road.
After a pause, she quickly added, blocking Bright Stuat ‘s words that she wanted to entrust herself to connect him with Mr. Quiva , “but I’m really not familiar with Mr. Quiva .”
“It’s just that I met Mr. Bermin at the auction house before and gave him a hand. Even without me, his assistant came quickly.”
Selina obviously didn’t believe it. At this moment, he couldn’t care whether Philip Andrew was there or not. She shouted, “you’re talking nonsense. If it were so simple, how could Vasati Bermin give you his painting?”
That’s 6million!
Anna said, “I don’t know.”
The stuat family wants to suck blood from her? no way!
If you want to use her a springboard to meet Mr. Bermin, daydream.
“Is that really all?”Bright Stuat is still skeptical.
Anna nodded without changing her face, “Dad, if you don’t believe it, you can ask Mr. Bermin by yourself.”
Bright Stuat suddenly became silent.
If he could ask himself, would he still want to trap Anna?
It’s obviously out of the question to try Vasati Bermin ‘s trick, but Bright Stuat is never willing to let Anna go like this.
He lingered in his position for a while, and suddenly stood up: ” President Andrew , Anna and I have something to talk about her mother.”
Anna ‘s eyes were sharp, and she quickly lowered her eyes before Bright Stuat looked over.
Philip Andrew glanced at her expression a little, and then said, “president Stuat means…”
“I’ll go to the study to talk with Anna . Please sit here for a while, Mr. Andrew .”
Selina seemed to think of something here, and her eyes suddenly lit up: “Dad, if you have anything, just talk to my sister, and I will take good care of President Andrew .”
Speaking, she glanced at Philip Andrew with a shy and timid glance.
Anna couldn’t help but look at him quietly, and found that he didn’t move much about it. Thinking about it, if he really liked Selina , she wouldn’t have today.
She felt relived, and then followed Bright Stuat to the study.
As soon as she entered the study, Bright Stuat said frankly: “is that Vasati Bermin ‘s painting in your hand? It’s useless for you to hold that painting. It’s better to give it to me.”
Anna has always known the shamelessness of the Stuat family , but what Bright Stuat did today still refreshed her cognitive threshold.
Her face showed embarrassment: “this…”
Bright Stuat looked unhappy immediately: “why, what’s the problem?”
“Do you think Dad will be greedy for your painting?” He said, “dad just thinks that this painting can be more useful in my hands. You know, you can’t make a foothold any harder now. Even if you can marry Philip Andrew , there are many places to rely on us.”
Anna couldn’t stop sneering. In her last life, she always hear Bright Stuat ‘s brainwashing nonsense, and she was really coaxed by him.
I’m not so stupid in this life.
However, no matter what she thought i, Anna still showed an educated expression: “I know Dad, you must be good for me.”
Bright Stuat ‘s expression eased a little: “in that case, give me the painting.”
“I…”Anna raised her eyes and looked at Bright Stuat quietly. She quickly lowered her head and muttered, “that painting is not in my hand now.”
Bright Stuat finally relaxed her eyebrows, and immediately frowned tightly again, “what are you talking about? It’s not in your hand!”
