Chapter 49 Back to the Brown
Cecilia Glendon hated even her own mother, but Allen Brown could not make her hate him.
He may not have been her real father, but he treated her extremely well.
After everyone sat down in the living room, Cecilia Glendon had time to take a good look at Gail Brown’s face.
She hit Gail Brown’s left side of her face yesterday, but not with much force, so the swelling has gone down, but the right side of her face … is still swollen and a little red.
It looks like Allen Brown slapped it again after returning yesterday.
The whole the Brown, I’m afraid only Allen Brown dare to hit her.
But why?
Allen Brown treated his daughter with extreme affection in the past, ah.
“What are you looking at?”
When Cecilia Glendon was puzzled, Gail Brown suddenly said so fiercely.
“Gail, what the hell is wrong with you?” Allen Brown frowned, “Cecilia came back for once and you can’t talk properly?”Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Why should I be nice to her!” Gail Brown strained her neck and red-faced.
“Cecilia … What’s wrong with your hands?” Cecilia Glendon’s mother’s voice rang out with heartache.
It was then that everyone looked at Cecilia Glendon’s right hand.
She had a Band-Aid on her finger, something that never used to happen, and they all knew how much Cecilia Glendon loved her hands.
“It’s okay.” Cecilia Glendon covered her right hand with her left hand without a trace, smiled faintly and looked at Gail Brown with a cool gaze, “I found the car smashed when I got up this morning, and my finger was cut by the broken glass of the window.”
“The car was smashed?!” Cecilia Glendon’s mother exclaimed, her face changed dramatically, this time she was really shocked, “How did the car get smashed for no reason? Did you see the surveillance? Who did it?”
“Since the person who smashed the car dared to do it in the parking lot, then surely they are not afraid of the surveillance.” Cecilia Glendon said softly, “The surveillance has been checked, last night’s surveillance happened not to record my parking space, but …”
Gail Brown’s heart was still snickering at her own little cleverness, but Cecilia Glendon this suddenly came a sentence, and let her heart all the delight suddenly disappeared.
“I installed my own camera in the car, so who smashed it, wait for the night to go back to see it.” Cecilia Glendon gently threw down such a sentence.
Gail Brown’s face was suddenly devoid of any blood.
“That’s good.” Cecilia Glendon’s mother said.
“Let’s move back in.” Allen Brown was silent for a long time, then suddenly spoke up.
“Why?” Gail Brown was the first to shout, “I don’t agree! Why should she move back in? She’s a divorced woman!”
“Gail!”
When Allen Brown saw his daughter’s opposition, he wanted to slap her again, how could he have given birth to such a brainless daughter!
Compared to Gail Brown, Cecilia Glendon is more like his daughter, at least in every aspect of her character. But Gail Brown, who had caused him so much trouble since she was a child, especially this time with the Benson family!
“I don’t care! If Cecilia Glendon moves back in, I’ll move out!” Gail Brown was doing everything she could to stop Cecilia Glendon from coming back.
“Gail, don’t be ridiculous.” Frank Brown spoke up at the right time, “She’s alone now, move back in and we’ll all be there as a family, so we can take care of each other.”
When Gail Brown saw her big brother helping Cecilia Glendon, her eyes turned red with anger: “You’re all helping Cecilia Glendon!
Gail Brown cried and got up from the couch and ran upstairs.
“Cecilia … sorry, Gail is such a temper, don’t take offense.” Allen Brown’s face was full of embarrassment.
“Uncle Brown, it’s okay.” Cecilia Glendon indifferent smile, “I have left the Brown for so many years, there is no reason to move back, besides, I now live very close to the studio.”
“But if something happens again what can be done na …” Allen Brown sank a breath, “You are a girl, it is always unsafe.”
“This time I believe it was just an accident, if something like this happens again, I will change the house again.” Cecilia Glendon was adamant.
“Just let Cecilia make her own decision.” Cecilia Glendon’s mother said, “Do what you want to do, I won’t advise you.”
Cecilia Glendon gave Cecilia Glendon’s mother a rare smile, though only for a moment.
Her non-competitive nature made Allen Brown’s heart ache for her a little more, while comparing Gail Brown and Cecilia Glendon again, he sighed helplessly in his heart.
When will Gail Brown be as understanding as Cecilia Glendon?
…
After the family conversation Cecilia Glendon’s mother went to cook dinner, Allen Brown had to go to the business, so he asked Frank Brown to take Cecilia Glendon to her old room and let her stay here tonight to rest, but Cecilia Glendon politely refused.
“It’s going to be late after dinner, wouldn’t it be nice to stay here for the night?” Frank Brown asked gently.
“There’s no need.” Cecilia Glendon’s face was a little cold. Without Allen Brown around, Cecilia Glendon didn’t need to hide her true character, “I’ll take a taxi back by myself later.”
“I’ll drive you.” Frank Brown said, “It’s not safe for a girl to take a taxi.”
“No.” Cecilia Glendon gave him a look, “Frank Brown, just because I came back the Brown today, doesn’t mean I can get closer to you.”
She could see that Frank Brown was trying hard to get closer to her, but she didn’t need to.
A sad look crossed Frank Brown’s face: “Cecilia, even if you just think of me as your brother, can’t you? I’m not doing this because I like you, I’d do it even if I was just your brother.”
Cecilia Glendon hooked her lips and smiled coldly: “Sorry, I’m an only child, I don’t have a brother or a sister, Master Taylor, you’re a brother, I can’t climb high.”
“Cecilia …”
“Well, no need to say anymore.” Cecilia Glendon glanced behind Frank Brown at the reluctantly closed study door and lowered her voice, “Go about your business, don’t mind me.”
She turned and pushed open the door to the room, then stepped inside and closed it.
This room was the one she had lived in when she originally lived in the Brown, and the furnishings inside the room were still the same as when she left, without a single change, and there was not even a bit of dust inside, as if it was being cleaned every day.
It was as if … was waiting for the owner to move in at any time.
Seeing this, Cecilia Glendon’s heart, which had just wrapped itself in frost, melted a little.
The person standing outside the door sighed softly, the sigh seemed to pass through the doorway into Cecilia Glendon’s ears, very light and faint.
Frank Brown seems to be gone, footsteps fading away, until after his footsteps can not be heard, Cecilia Glendon quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the relief was not quite finished when suddenly there was a knock on her door.
