Chapter 383: Chapter 383: High-profile Etiquette (4)

In the past, she had regarded him as a doctor and leader, but now he could be a passerby, a former colleague, a neighbor, anyone, but he would never be an important and intimate person in her life.

"Alright, then I won’t bother you guys, get some rest. I’ll pick you up tomorrow?" There was so much he wanted to say tonight, so he hadn’t had the chance to tell her that they actually lived quite close and he could give her rides in the future.

"Okay, see you tomorrow. I’ll have breakfast ready and waiting for you." Avery Graham looked at Bernard Taylor, who had turned his face away, and said this on purpose.

"Yeah, see you tomorrow." This was an unexpected joy, one Kent Auclair hadn’t anticipated.

After hanging up the phone, Avery Graham watched as Marie turned her face back, but still looked unwilling to leave. She couldn’t help but speak up, "Dr. Taylor, if there’s nothing else, let’s leave it at that."

"You just invite him to come over for breakfast tomorrow, aren’t you afraid he’ll see something he shouldn’t?" Bernard Taylor snorted coldly, he wasn’t oblivious to how deliberate Avery Graham was being.

But this woman made him face the reality of her indifference towards him, which was genuine. He, Bernard Taylor, didn’t have a face that could bewitch any woman, at least Avery Graham had no interest in him.

And he had once mistakenly thought that Avery Graham was feigning it. There were women in the past who had pretended to be annoyed by him, but as soon as he opened up to them a little bit, they confessed their love to him.

So, he had once mistakenly thought that Avery Graham had the same intention. But she truly didn’t have any interest in him at all. And now, he felt a deep sense of loss.

"...I think you’re a decent person, Dr. Taylor." For a moment, Avery Graham was frightened, but for some reason, in just an instant, she felt that Bernard Taylor just wasn’t that kind of person.

She didn’t know why she was so sure, maybe it was because Bernard Taylor didn’t need to force his way onto a woman if he wanted one. She, Avery Graham, wasn’t a heavenly fairy with unparalleled beauty.

"Thank you for the compliment, good night." As expected, the next second, Bernard Taylor turned around and walked away.

Avery Graham watched him walk away with a commanding presence, smiling with relief, taking out her keys, opening the door, and going upstairs.

As for Bernard Taylor, in a place where Avery couldn’t see him, he actually walked quite unsteadily. Tonight, he suddenly didn’t want to go home. He reached the entrance of the Residential Area and asked the security guard to open the door for him. He then called a taxi and went to a place where he could find some peace.

——Dividing Line——

A few days had passed, and Henry Ruiz hadn’t returned yet. Master Ruiz couldn’t hold back any longer and summoned the Ruiz family’s second and third children back to the Morgan Mansion. Naturally, this included having Bryan Hawkins and Carolline Ruiz return too.

Furthermore, Master Ruiz made a request to Emily Hill: this time, have Bryan Cooper bring Carolline back to the old mansion in a grand and proper manner, so that the neighbors on either side could see that their beloved Carolline was not as pitiful as they had claimed.

Emily Hill immediately laughed. She had originally planned to wait for Henry Ruiz to return before accepting Master Ruiz’s invitation, but now she understood that all he wanted was to regain his lost face.

Henry Ruiz used to say that some of Master Ruiz’s actions and behaviors were childlike. If she looked at him as she would a child, she would have less resentment and misunderstanding.

She hadn’t been willing to believe it before, but now she had no choice but to believe it.

As Master Ruiz continued to chatter on the phone, Emily Hill suddenly didn’t feel so angry at him anymore. Over the years, he might have been dissatisfied with her having only one daughter, but he had in fact never damaged their family in actual actions and never used forceful means to pressure her into divorcing Henry Ruiz.
