A taxi was driving on the road, and Brayden was leaning back in his chair, his eyes closed.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
He opened his eyes, took his phone, and saw the name on the screen.
He swiped the answer button and looked out the window.
“Mom”
“Brayden, are you back?”
“I’m on the way.”
“That’s good.I thought you weren’t back yet.When will you get home?”
Brayden looked at the watch and said, “About ten minutes.”
“Soon, you haven’t had lunch, have you? I will make some for you now’’
“Thank you, mom.”
After hanging up, Belle went to the kitchen immediately.
Brayden put his phone aside and lowered the window.
As soon as the window was lowered, a Bentley drove past him from the opposite direction.
He looked into the rearview mirror.
The black Bentley quickly disappeared from his sight, but he could still tell that it was Everett’s car.
Brayden looked ahead.
This road led to the Jameses.
If he was right, Everett had gone to Belle’s house.
Everett looked into the mirror at the taxi getting farther and farther away.
He turned away his eyes and looked ahead, his black eyes emotionless.
Brayden got home quickly.
Belle heard the sound and ran out immediately.
Seeing the driver take down the luggage, she hurried over.
“I’ll take it”
She took the suitcase and called to the person inside, “Nanny Zhang, come and take the suitcase in.’’
“Yes, madam.”
Nanny Zhang came out quickly and took the suitcase away.
Belle looked at Brayden and said, “Let me take a good look at you.”
This time was different.
She was worried since she hadn’t seen him for a few days.
The meal was not ready yet.
“Okay”
Brayden went upstairs and Belle went to the kitchen.
Half an hour later, the food was served.
Belle looked upstairs.
Brayden was still there.
She went upstairs.
She wondered if the Brayden was sleeping.
Outside Brayden’s bedroom, she tentatively knocked on the door and said in alow voice, “Brayden, the meal is ready.’
“OK, mom, come in for a while.”
So he wasn’t resting.
“Okay” Belle opened the door and went in.
Brayden handed her two red certificates.Belle was surprised.
“These are…”
“Keep my marriage certificates with Olivia for me.’’
