h4Chapter 28: The Real Good Man!/h4
After all, Brandon was a talented senior now working at a top-tierpany, a position not easily achieved. He was always surrounded by countless junior girls who sought to get close to him under the pretense of tutoring.
However, Brandon’s thoughts were always focused on Hannah, and he had never epted any other invitations.
Now, facing E, who was not only indifferent to him but also showed clear disdain, left him utterly bewildered.
Just as Brandon was lost in thought, E walked past him, prompting him to call out urgently.
"E, do you have a problem with me?"
E turned back, her gaze cool on his handsome face, "No problem, just no interest."
With that, E turned and walked away without hesitation.
Brandon stood there, transitioning from shock to a cold realization—E had rejected him so bluntly.
At this moment, Hannah’s door opened. She had been hiding inside, listening to the entire conversation through the crack.
"Brandon, why weren’t you more subtle in asking her out?" Hannah stepped out, her gaze filled with reproach.
Brandon chuckled softly, the coldness in his eyes reced by gentleness as he reached out to touch Hannah’s face, "Dear, I was subtle enough, but she still turned me down."
His gaze grew more intimate. Hannah huffed, pped his hand away, and walked downstairs arrogantly.
Brandon felt a bit frustrated. He noticed how much Hannah had changed.
In the past, Hannah was always clingy, desperate for his attention and care.
Now, though her indifference wasn’t as intense as E’s, it still left him puzzled.
When Brandon went downstairs, he realized E had already left.
"Aren’t you going to chase after her? Show her you’re serious!" Hannahmanded coldly.
Brandon felt a flicker of irritation. Hannah’s suddenmanding tone was a stark contrast to her usual gentle demeanor.
"Fine, I’ll go!" Driven by his own pride, he couldn’t understand why E didn’t appreciate him.
So, regardless of his feelings for Hannah, Brandon dashed out, determined to follow E.
Brianna frowned at Hannah, "Are you really nning to break up with Brandon?"
"Yes, how can hepare to Eric? I want the best man in the world!" Hannah smiled confidently, "Mom, help create opportunities for us. Whenever Eric is around, let me know, or find out where he will be!"
Brianna’s expression turned peculiar, "But he gave that bitch a thirty-million-dor painting!"
She implied that Eric might be interested in E, which could be problematic for Hannah...
"Mom, Eric has only met E a few times. There’s no sign he’s interested in her. Please help me!"
"But Brandon is also good... At least he listens to you willingly. Other men might not be so amodating." Brianna thought Brandon was ideal because he was sopliant with Hannah.
A man like Eric, so lofty and unattainable, would never be a woman’s puppet.
"Mom, Brandon is nice, and he’s gentle, but love is unpredictable. I like Eric now, not him!" Hannah huffed, "I’m going to touch up my makeup and then hang out with friends."
Brianna watched her daughter’s graceful figure retreat, unable to shake a growing sense of unease.
...
When E arrived at Central Park, she saw Chloe chatting happily with a tall guy. They seemed very close.
E paused for a moment, but Chloe spotted her and waved excitedly, "E, over here!"
E sighed and walked over to Chloe.
Chloe smiled and introduced the guy beside her, "E, do you remember my brother, Charles? He just returned from Country W."
E looked at Charles, smiled slightly, and extended her delicate hand, "Hi, I’m E Davis."
"Hello, I’m Charles Carter." Charles smiled brightly, and a wave of emotions surged in E’s heart.
Of course, she remembered him. In her past life, the only man who genuinely cared for her was Chloe’s older brother, Charles.
Charles had pursued her once, but Brandon had already appeared in her life then, and E only had eyes for that scoundrel, ignoring the true good man right in front of her.
"My brother said he hasn’t been to the zoo in ages, so he’s ying third wheel today!" Chloeughed.
E couldn’t help butugh, "You always have such a weird way of talking. People might think we’re a couple!"
Charles chuckled too, "That’s just how my sister is. Don’t mind her."
"Of course not! We’re best friends in the world; she’d never mind me. Let’s go in!" Chloe grabbed E’s hand and pulled her towards the park, while Charles went to buy a few bottles of water and then joined them.
Charles, the kindest and most gentle man in the world, E didn’t want to hurt him again, especially now that she had promised to be with Eric.
That day, E was genuinely happy.
Having lived through everything again, she was cautious about everything.
But with Chloe and Charles, she let her guard down because she knew they were sincere.
By 5 PM, Chloe keptining about being hungry, so Charles had to take the two girls out of the zoo to a restaurant across the street for dinner.
"E, my brother doesn’t have a girlfriend yet. Why don’t you be my sister-inw?" Chloe whispered to E while they were sitting down to order.
E blushed, "Stop joking! Your brother... I don’t deserve him."
"Nonsense! He likes you; he won’t care about your past extravagance. You’ve changed for the better now, haven’t you?" Chloe looked at E with satisfaction.
Recently, while shopping with E, Chloe noticed that she was no longer obsessed with brand names.
Gone were the days of crazy shopping sprees where E would spend hundreds of thousands of dors each trip.
Although Chloe was also a wealthy girl, her parents didn’t give her much pocket money.
She had tried to advise E, but back then, E wouldn’t listen at all.
But recently, Chloe noticed that E had be much moreposed.
Facing Chloe’s probing, E could only shake her head awkwardly, "I... I already have someone in my heart."
"What? Who is he? Tell me, is it Eric?" Chloe’s eyes widened as she eximed excitedly.
