Chapter 892: Chapter 871: Who Taught His Little Sister Roy To Be Like This?
Upon hearing these words, Oliver Thompson’s face instantly darkened, his faintly elegant smile vanishing in an instant: "Roy..."
"Uncle Thompson, we did not roll in the bed sheets, don’t listen to Chani spouting nonsense!" The reprimanding words Oliver Thompson was about to utter were cut off by Bella Gordon’s interjection, "Don’t be angry with Brother Roy!"
Seeing Oliver Thompson’s expression, it was clear he had misunderstood Chani’s words and was about to scold Roy Thompson. Oliver Thompson, just like Michael Gordon with Bella, held very strict standards for lifestyle, study habits, and others, disallowing any errors; so upon hearing Chani’s words, he even thought his own son had stirred up some trouble!
Hearing what Bella said, Oliver Thompson subconsciously let out a sigh of relief!
The date for the engagement was chosen to be the week before university started because both of them were still students, especially since Bella had just started university. To be engaged at this age was already quite rare, and coupled with both families’ backgrounds, it was hard to avoid the implication of business in this fine match. Hence, no media were invited to the engagement ceremony, including that of Allure International.
The engagement took place on the island where Ivy Aretha and Michael Gordon had their wedding years ago, firstly because the environment was beautiful, and secondly because everything that happened on the island held special meaning for Roy Thompson and Bella Gordon, especially the time when young Bella was kidnapped by Alya Larson, and Roy Thompson unhesitatingly followed her up the mountain, nearly losing his own life.
So many years had passed, yet the memories from childhood were as clear as if they were from yesterday, the recollections of youth had become the most beautiful beginning of a lifetime.
"Brother Roy, do we really have to get engaged so early?"
The engagement ceremony was about to start, and here was Bella Gordon asking such a foolish question, causing Roy Thompson quite a headache. Fortunately, it appeared the girl was just nervous—otherwise, it might have killed him, "Of course, without making our relationship official, I would feel very insecure!"
"Why are you the one feeling insecure? If anyone should be, it’s obviously me!"
In most cases, isn’t it the woman who is the passive one? Isn’t that how those TV series about men growing tired of the old and yearning for the new are all written?
"Because I’ve always worn my heart on my sleeve for the whole world to see, while you keep yours hidden, requiring me to explore cautiously. So, baby, I am very insecure!"
Bella Gordon: "..."
So, was it her fault after all?
"Brother Roy, I..."
For some reason, upon hearing these words, Bella Gordon felt a sour warmth in her heart, a warm current indescribable in words flowing from the bottom of her heart to the deepest part of her heart. For a moment, she didn’t know how to continue what she was about to say. It all started with their first encounter at the age of five, followed by two years of companionship that embedded their childhood dependence deeply within their hearts.
"Good girl, don’t be nervous, with Brother Roy here, you don’t have to do anything!" Looking at the girl in her exquisite white gown, seeing her eyes incredibly excited, yet stumbling over her words due to nervousness, Roy Thompson reached out to hug her into his arms, lowering his head and gently kissing her forehead, a gesture that immediately stabilized her emotions.
They were still young, and kissing, in the real sense, had not yet occurred. The so-called firsts were all held back, experiencing the most primal love. Kissing was just kissing, and Roy Thompson had grown accustomed to kissing her forehead—a place supposedly most sacred to a woman, where a man’s most noble promise resides. Compared to passionate kisses, a kiss on the forehead better expressed the fiercest inner affection.
"Mm, Brother Roy, tell me, after you have the status, will you still treat me as well as you did before? People always say men want what they cannot have the most, and once they have it, they don’t care anymore!"
Roy Thompson: "..."
Was this the reason he was angry because their romp together from a few days ago was caught by someone?
Young Master Roy said he was in a good mood, so he calmly spoke up, "Everyone else is wrong. From now on, you just listen to me and tell everyone else to buzz off!"
Bella Gordon: "..."
Such a domineering tone. It was the first time Brother Roy had spoken to her like this!
"From now on, I will only treat you better. Remember, after you start university, ignore all the other guys!" Roy Thompson said with an amused touch to his head, "When I’m not around, you need to behave. After I graduate and come back, I will marry you, and we’ll never be apart again!"
Although Roy Thompson was only a year older than Bella Gordon, the Thompson family’s way of raising a boy was naturally much stricter than that of raising a girl. Roy had been brought up under military-style discipline since he was young. Bella was graduating high school this year, while he had graduated three years ago and was now a university graduate, albeit one who needed to pursue a master’s degree in finance abroad for another three years.
The heir to the Thompson family faced no small number of challenges, and of course, in the future, he would carry not just the responsibilities of the Thompson family, but also half of the burden of the Gordon family. After all, a son-in-law is like half a son, and marrying into the Gordon family wasn’t something any ordinary man could manage!
Bella Gordon, on the other hand, was doted on by Michael Gordon. In terms of her studies, there was no pressure at all. For Mr. Gordon, what women wanted to do was what they should do, otherwise what were men for!
So, even though Roy Thompson and Bella Gordon were only a year apart in age, there was actually a great difference between them!
"Then, Brother Roy, when you’re abroad, you also can’t flirt with other girls. That would only be fair!"
She had never provoked men, and if men provoked her, she was utterly unapologetic. So the condition Brother Roy had proposed really wasn’t a condition at all, but it was still good to take the opportunity to make a demand, "I’ve heard that the blonde beauties abroad are very spicy, and I’ve seen them when I was little, so, you must promise me, not to give them even a glance!"
Blonde beauties are very spicy?
Hearing this, Roy Thompson laughed deeply. It seemed this girl knew what jealousy was after all!
He had thought she had no clue, but knowing was good!
"Hmm, I’m not interested in them, I’m only interested in you!" What were blonde women to him? He didn’t like them at all. He liked her, with her black hair and beautiful looks. Oh, wait, no, just her. He liked her for who she was!
"Talking like this now is too early. Men are animals led by their lower halves, and a man’s word is so unreliable that even a sow might climb a tree!" Seeing Roy Thompson speak with a grin, Bella Gordon suddenly remembered the random things the girls would say when they gathered, and she got into the spirit, "You say this now because you haven’t faced much temptation. After all, in China, you probably won’t find another girl like me. But once you’re abroad, that’s not a given!"
Roy Thompson: "..."
Good Lord, who taught his little sister Bella to talk like this?
