“What? Sis, you know him?” Scott said warily. “Sis?” Randal asked with a teasing smile.
Watching Scott spill the beans, Anna laughed as she felt resigned. She said, “Hey, Scott, you shouldn‘t have said that.”
She had only told Randal that she was engaged, but she didn‘t tell him who her fiance was. Little did she know that Scott would spill the beans within seconds.
What a simple kid! But, this whole thing is indeed not my fault, is it? Anna thought to herself.
“Oh, I‘ll leave you two alone, okay? We‘re off to somewhere else.” Anna rubbed her nose awkwardly and left with Peace.
Anna thought that there were so many people here, so there was no way Randal could do anything to Scott. Also, she and Peace felt awkward just by standing next to them. So, she thought it was better to run away.
Just as Anna left, Scott glared at Randal in annoyance and prepared to leave as well.
“Don’t you want to know how Anna and I met?” Randal asked.
“No!”
“I know you hate me. But do you hate me more for being your boyfriend or for being your sister‘s boyfriend?”
“What do you mean?” Scott stood still. As soon as he turned around, he saw the picture of Anna and Randal on Randal‘s phone.
His gaze instantly became alert. Then, he grabbed Randal by the collar and lowered his voice, “Hey, I‘m warning you. Don‘t you lay your hands on my sister. Otherwise, I won‘t let you go.”
Randal didn‘t struggle at all and just let Scott grab his collar. He put his hands inside his trouser pockets and lifted his head. At that moment, his glasses reflected the bright light
He looked interested and asked, “Oh? Is that so? How will you do that?”
Scott was going to pass out from anger. He said, “Humph! I‘m going to tell everyone that you‘re gay! And, the news will be all over this city. You‘re divorced, but you were married to a woman and had a child. You did that as a marriage fraud! When that time comes, your company will definitely suffer.
“I‘ll make my brother president of the company before people know about it.” Randal looked at the young man in front of him at ease. The way he looked at Scott was like a wolf looking at his weak prey.
“And, after that, I will tell everyone that you are my boyfriend so that you will retire with me.”
Scott‘s expression immediately became irritated. He cursed, “Bulls**t! Randal, I‘m not your f**king boyfriend!”
“Actually, I kind of like it when you curse.” Randal smiled tenderly and said.
Scott felt as if the blood in his body was boiling. He froze for a long time, not able to say a word of retort.
Randal pulled out a hand, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “Hey, are you calm yet? Okay, then just listen to me. I won‘t lay my hand s on your sister, but I want you to get along with me.”
Scott quickly slapped Randal‘s hand away and took two steps back. He said cautiously, “I‘m telling you, I‘m straight! Also, I would never go on a damn date with you. Get over it!”
Randal shrugged, and that made him look lazy and elegant like a noble swan. He said, “I‘m straight, too. But, what happened that day was an accident. You know, I was drunk.”
Scott looked at him suspiciously and said, “Oh, don‘t try to fool me! I know you only had half a glass of red wine that night.”
Scott sent Randal home that night because he was trying to be nice. But, he didn’t expect Randal to make a move on him.
Scott would be annoyed just by thinking of it.
However, he knew that he should protect Anna. So, he took a deep breath and said, “Okay. Randal, I can be your friend. But please don‘t come near my sister again.”
Randal looked at him with a teasing smile and said, “Oh, hey, I have a lot of friends. You know why I‘m approaching you, Scott. You want to play dumb, but I don‘t.”
Randal felt that working every day had already made him exhausted. Therefore, he had always been very open about his feelings and never hid them.
“What? God! What the hell are you trying to do?!” Scott asked through clenched teeth. His face was red from anger. ?.
“I just want you to go on a date with me.” “What? Are you kidding me?” “No, I’m not,” Randal said firmly.
Randal then took a glass of wine from a waiter passed by He turned toward Anna and said, “Your sister may have broken up with Wayne. But, you know what, my sister knows Wayne very well. So, if I want to. I can change the relationship between them. Scott, I‘ll give you one night to think about my proposal. Also, I hope you can tell me your answer when the party is over.”
Scott was trembling with anger. At that moment, Randal had strutted toward Anna.
And Scott found that all he could do was stare at Randal‘s back, and he couldn‘t stop him.
After a while, Wayne walked into the room
Together with Wayne, Charlotte walked in with her hands around his arm intimately. They looked like they were made for each other.
Scott immediately frowned and then looked at Anna. Then, he was slightly relieved to see that Anna was talking to Randal and didn‘t saw Wayne.
However, before he could fully relax, he felt enraged again.
Randal is so shameless! He‘s obviously gay, but he has tricked his ex-wife into marrying him and having a kid. Now, it seems that he even tried to fool Anna! What an asshole! Scott thought to himself.
“Wayne, honey, my brother is coming to say hello to you later. You guys haven‘t seen each other in a long time, have you?” Charlotte said intimately as she snuggled into Wayne‘s arms.
Wayne was a little distracted and didn‘t seem to hear her. As soon as he walked in, he saw Anna and Randal standing together. He then paused his steps for a moment and frowned.
Charlotte looked in the direction Wayne was looking and then became puzzled as well. She said, “Hey, isn‘t that Anna? She knows my brother?”
Before she could finish, she suddenly laughed. She said, “You know what, Anna is totally Randal‘s type.”
“Really? But, isn‘t your brother married?” Wayne asked, upset.
Charlotte looked at him and said, “Oh, you probably haven‘t heard of that. His ex–wife left for America after she gave birth to his child. They got divorced five years ago, but they kept it a secret. Even my parents just found out about it a while ago. And they really hope that Randal can get married again.”
Wayne kept frowning. When he saw the way Randal and Anna were talking and laughing, he felt so annoyed that he couldn‘t even breathe.
Wayne thought to himself, Man, I thought she was going to Liverpool to travel. When she came back, I thought she wouldn‘t be mad at me anymore. When the hell did she meet Randal? Look how happy she is. It seems that she has forgotten what had happened before and got over me.
“Wayne, hey, Thomas is here,” Charlotte said. Thomas was her second brother.
“Sorry, I need to talk to someone. I‘ll come back later.” Wayne pulled his hand out of Charlotte‘s and was ready to leave.
Watching him leaving, Charlotte bit her lip, and her gaze turned somber.
