Wherever Bryant was, she was like a dog spotting a hot dog stand, ready to do anything, which was hardly shocking.
Bryant's expression darkened slightly, his voice cold, "I'm not thirsty anymore." "How can you not be thirsty? Wasn't Jane just about to get you a drink..." Margaret's pretty face was all scrunched up in confusion, but then she mumbled, "Well, it figures. She doesn't know you like I do and can't even tell when you want something."> With that, she set the water glass aside.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI had been worried about Bryant getting hurt and was looking for a chance to ask him about Margaret. And the opportunity had presented itself on a silver platter.
I turned to Bryant, my lips curving slightly. "What have you decided about her?"} We had talked about it during the day, and by then, he should have cto a decision." "Decided what?" Knowing perfectly well that “she” referred to her, Margaret asked with suspicion.
Bryant glanced at me, his gaze mild. "Aren't you being a bit too much of a fair-weather friend? I'm still a patient here."} "But she's not." I looked at Margaret mockingly.
Margaret had talked about fainting in the hospital earlier, yet she had walked all the way here without mentioning any pain. Her recovery was remarkable.
But I knew the cut she had received during the day wasn't deep. Being as cautious about her life as she was, she wouldn't risk a wound that could potentially be fatal.
Then, I added deliberately, "Bryant, you know this situation better than anyone. I won't let it go easily. If you don't do it my way, that's fine. I'll handle her myself!" Bryant's brow furrowed slightly, "I'll do it your way!" "When?" I pressed.
Still confused, Margaret shook Bryant's arm. "Bry, what are you guys talking about? I don't understand a word."}] Bryant, who had injured his shoulder, winced in pain, his voice tinged with coldness, "Let go!" "Oh. Being scolded by Bryant beforemade Margaret lose face, and she pouted, "Fine, but don't be mean to me! What are you two even talking about?" I couldn't stand her act any longer and smirked, "We were discussing sending you abroad. Which country would you prefer? Oh, and the Ferguson family will only cover your one-way ticket. Once you're there, you're on your own. Best of luck." Margaret was shocked, her confusion becoming panic as she listened, her face growing paler, finally turning to Bryant in disbelief. "Bry, she's lying, is she? You can't possibly sendaway and then abandon me!"&
To her, it was worse than death.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHaving relied on the Ferguson family her whole life and leading, a lavish lifestyle, the thought of having to fend for herself in a foreign land where she didn't speak the language was worse than death. Bryant looked at her, his gaze dark and unreadable, but he confirmed, "It's as she said." Tears welled up in Margaret's eyes as she shook her head in denial. "No... don't do this. I won't go! I won't!"N
"It's not up to you anymore." Bryant's voice turned icy, "I was thinking of waiting until you were a bit better to decide on this, but seeing as you're already bouncing back, let's say in a couple of days."" "Kevin, book her a ticket for the day after tomorrow. Any of the places Jane mentioned, let her choose." Bryant instructed.
"Understood, Mr. Ferguson," Kevin responded.
Margaret looked at him in disbelief, tears streaming down her face. "Bry, I said I won't go. Didn't you hear me? Please, Ndon't want to be that far from you! You promised to take care of me. Why are you listening to her now!"
