Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 397: I Don’t Mind

Before Wendy could answer Lottie’s question, a person came from outside the hall.

Sasha’s eyes lit up when she saw Hunter.

She had long known that Mr. Hunter of the Jackson family in Bentson City was an outstanding man. But she hadn’t expected that he would be so outstanding.

If she wasn’t that old, and if she were twenty years younger, she would definitely go after and date him.

She had never seen such a handsome man before!

A single photo of him could even make the woman’s cheeks turn red and heartbeat quicken. Now, seeing him, she couldn’t look away at all.

“Mr. Hunter, your reputation precedes you. I’m well acquainted with your work!”

Sasha walked over and stretched out her hand.

The Gale Group of City L and the Jackson Group of Bentson City had always had business dealings.

Sasha was working on a project with Hunter.

Hunter shook her hand slightly before everyone sat down again.

“Dad, do we hear any good news about Wendy and Mr. Hunter?”

Sasha came here after she received the news.

She heard that after Hunter came here, he immediately went to see Wendy.

Now, they sat together and seemed to be on intimate terms.

In addition, she had asked someone to inquire about Wendy before.

She had already known that Wendy and Mr. Hunter were a couple.

Wendy’s Weibo was filled with photos taken at Mr. Hunter’s WongRiver Pavilion.

She looked at Patriarch Gale, but her gaze accidentally fell on the girl beside him.

“She!”

Sasha suddenly stood up and said, “She …”

“What?” Patriarch Gale looked at Sasha and frowned, “Why are you making such a fuss?”

His two daughters were capable backbones of the Gale Group. They were famous for their composure.

Although Sasha was slightly more impetuous than Lottie in general, she should not be so impetuous.

“Sasha, this is Wendy’s sister, Emily.” Lottie glanced at her indifferently.

Sasha was calmed down by this warning.

The look of that girl!

Her feelings for Emily were even more intense than Lottie!

Back then, when her younger brother Harley was in love, she had even helped him hide it from Patriarch Gale several times.

She would never forget how that girl looked!

However, how could this be?

Emily was a little depressed today. She smiled at Sasha to greet her. Then, she picked up her cup and drank the tea.

She didn’t seem to be interested in their topic at all.

Sasha calmed down and glanced at Emily again before turning to look at Hunter and Wendy.

She smiled to cover up her ill manners just now, “Wendy, aren’t you going to introduce him to us?”

Wendy’s face was a little hot. She definitely knew what Sasha meant.

Everyone naturally knew Mr. Hunter. What Sasha meant was to introduce their relationship.

Wendy sneaked a glance at Hunter, who did not intend to say anything.

She quietly moved closer beside Hunter. They instantly became closer than before.

He didn’t resist it at all!

Wendy was excited and surprised.

“I... Hunter is my good friend, very good.”

Looking at them today, Patriarch Gale detected something unusual between them.

Originally, he didn’t dare to think about this thing. But today, Mr. Hunter gave him hope.

Patriarch Gale smiled, “You have been taking good care of Wendy, and I haven’t properly thanked you.”

Hunter smiled faintly. That perfect smile just cast a spell on all women present.

He said, “It’s what I should do.”

What he meant by that? It was obvious!

Wendy was Hunter’s responsibility!

Wendy was excited, but she couldn’t say anything. However, she was very afraid of missing something if she didn’t say anything. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

She could only try her best to wink at Patriarch Gale, hoping that he could help her.

Of course Patriarch Gale knew what she meant, but he still couldn’t see through Hunter.

Hunter had clearly said before that he had no feelings for his granddaughter at all.

But now, why was his attitude completely different?

“Well …” Patriarch Gale thought for a while before saying tentatively, “Mr. Hunter, are you with our Wendy? Why don’t even I know?”

Everyone became silent.

Emily’s hands tightened, and she subconsciously looked at Hunter.

Patriarch Gale was bringing this onto the table.

This time, yes or no, there wasn’t anything in between.

There wasn’t anything roundabout in Hunter. He wouldn’t beat around the bush.

Wendy was so nervous that her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

She wanted Grandpa to help her. But she did not expect that Grandpa would be so straightforward.

If Hunter refused her in front of so many people, how could she live in this family in the future?

Grandpa was really … inconsiderate of her!

In fact, Patriarch Gale just didn’t want to be sloppy. The last thing he wanted was that his granddaughter had unrealistic hopes.

Apart from Hunter, everyone present was his family.

It didn’t matter if she lost face in front of her family.

What matters was to figure it out.

Everyone’s gaze fell on Hunter.

However, Hunter didn’t seem to know what everyone was looking forward to.

After picking up the cup and tasting a mouthful of tea, he put it down and looked down at Wendy.

“You’ve been here for more than a month. Did you cause any trouble for everyone?”

Wendy felt excited!

With such a spoiled tone, it was clear that Hunter had already treated her as his woman!

She had never felt this before! Being treated as his woman by Hunter!

Suddenly, she felt excited. Her eyes became hot and tears almost rolled down her cheeks.

Wendy shook her head and almost fell into his arms.

If it weren’t for so many pairs of eyes watching her, she would definitely fall into his arms!

“I... No.” Wendy lowered her head and bit her lips, her breathing became uneven.

The hall remained silent for two seconds.

Two seconds later, Patriarch Gale was overjoyed and finally reacted.

“Wendy is so clever. How will she cause trouble for others?”

Patriarch Gale was too happy!

Unknowingly, he held Emily’s hand and looked at Hunter, “I wonder how much trouble Wendy had caused Mr. Hunter when she stayed by your side.”

Hunter smiled lightly. That smile was graceful and noble!

“It’s a little troublesome. But I don’t mind it.”

…

Emily stayed in the guest room on the second floor.

She did not know where Hunter lived, nor did she want to know.

Tonight, it belonged to Hunter and Wendy.

Whether she was by Hunter’s side or in the Gale family, she was extremely unwanted.

Standing on the balcony and looking at the night scene outside, Emily didn’t know if she wanted to laugh or cry.

Laughing at her own stupidity.

Crying for herself being so pathetic.

They had already publicly announced their love affair. But she was still a plaything beside Hunter.

Hunter was with Wendy. But privately, he still brought her along.

No one knew that she still owed Hunter more than a month.

In more than a month, she still was his bed partner to relieve his desire when he needed her.

What kind of man is this Mr. Hunter?

Bastard?

He was with Wendy. But he was still sleeping with other women. So what else could he be if he was not a bastard?

Tonight, there was wind. The wind blew on her body. It was so cold that her body froze.

Emily did not know how long she had stood on the balcony. When she suddenly regained her senses, she slowly returned to her room with her cold body.

Just as she was about to rest on the bed, a knock came from outside.
