Chapter 128: Do You Like That Girl?

    If it is just an ordinary pretty girl, they don''t think Hunter would trigger conflicts with Heaven-like Ind for her.


    They knew each other for more than ten years. They were already brothers since young.


    Hunter never showed any interest in women.


    But it was another story with his missing fiancé.


    After all, it is his fiancé. Even if he didn''t like her, he could never stand to see her being sell like an item outside.


    It hurt more than Hunter''s dignity.


    Therefore, it would only make sense if the girl they were talking about is Emily.


    "But that''s not right." Monty frowned and looked at Hunter.


    "I heard that...your ncé''s face is full of freckles, and she is ugly..."


    Monty felt a re from Hunter''s direction. Suddenly, it''s like Monty found something more interest than the game.


    He put his mouse away and squeeze himself onto the leather couch. Monty stared at Hunter''s handsome face and examined


    his expressions, even the tiniest one.


    "Hey bro, are you defending your ugly wife? We can''t even joke about her?"


    It was a rumour anyway. They have never seen Emily before.


    What he never expected was Hunter''s reaction when he heard them saying Emily is ugly.


    For a woman? Hunter red at them. This is news.


    It seems like Hunter is treating his ugly wife rather differently.


    "I''m just saying. Brother, don''t hit me. If she is not pretty, Heaven-like Ind would never have put her on sale."


    If she is ugly, they won''t bother to promote her. Not only no one would be


    interested, but it would also cost them their reputation.


    Hunter ignored Monty and drank up his drink.


    It was quite an interesting reaction.


    Henry stared at Hunter, thenughed, "Don''t tell me your ugly wife, is instead, a pretty girl?"


    Hunter remained silent. However, he raised his ss to Henry after pouring himself another drink.


    His reaction surprised Henry. Monty and the quiet Johnny too were curious.


    An ugly duckling turned into a pretty girl? It is interesting.


    Hunter put down his empty and stared at the red stain on the ss smudged by red wine.


    The picture of Emilyying under him crying kept reying in his brain.


    Happiness slowly showed in Hunter''s eyes.


    "Yes,'' atst, Hunter nodded. Then he poured himself another drink.


    Even Hunter thinks she is pretty, then she must be extraordinary.


    Based on his previous attitude to women, it is pretty hard to get Hunter to praise a woman and admit that she''s pretty.


    "She is that pretty?" Monty was highly interested and curious in Emily. He wanted to see how pretty she is to leave such influence on Hunter.


    "Brother, the girl that showed up in your room just now, was that your fiancé?"


    Monty recalled a girl''s voice appeared and asked to go for a karaoke session when he called Hunter earlier.


    "I see. You got dumped, that''s why you are here tonight."


    Did Hunter get dumped? This is an anecdote.


    Henry and Johnny looked at Monty''s direction. Henry smiled and asked, "What happened?"


    "No big deal. Just now, I gave Hunter a call to ask him to join our game. He rejected me right away. Then suddenly, his fiancé


    came to him and asked him if she can go out with her friend and stay overnight at her friend''s house."


    When Emily came to Hunter, he didn''t even bother about Monty and his phone


    call. His phone was probably thrown away to some corner immediately.


    And Monty overheard part of their conversation.


    Then he realized the conversation supposed to be private and confidential, Monty hung up on Hunter.


    But he had heard what he needed to know.


    "Hey bro, what do you mean by not interfering her life? Your engagement is formal, right?"


    Hunter wanted to shut Monty up badly. How much did he overhear exactly?


    Monty shrugged his shoulder as if he was telling Hunter that he knew what he needed to know.


    When Hunter thought of what Emily said about ''not interfering her life'', he got cranky.


    It was a rule he made, but now he is restrained by his own words.


    Hunter will always keep his promise.


    When he said he wouldn''t interfere, he wouldn''t.


    But it felt crappy to allow her to do anything as she pleased.


    Henry is the gentlest and the most attentive one in the group.


    When he saw the disappointment in Hunter''s eyes, he knew something is up.


    "Hunter, did ident you fell in love with the girl? I remember you agreed to get engaged for your mother, right?"


    "No, I did not."


    Emily is just a kid. How would he fell in love with her?


    Hunter looked more unsettled. Now, even Monty agreed with Henry''s assumption.


    "Let me take a wild guess. Did you set rules with the girl and got her to agree with the fake engagement? And both of you won''t interfere with each other''s life after the engagement?"


    "However, your fiancé is too attractive, and she got you hooked. Now you wanted to interfere, but you end up getting rejected."


    "Have you done talking?" Hunter stood up suddenly and walk towards the exit.


    "I''m just..." before Monty could finish his sentence, Hunter left the ce.


    Monty wanted to go after Hunter, but Henry stopped him, "You just poked the bear. Are you sure you want to go after him? Do you want him to cross you over?"


    Monty stopped and review what he did just now. Yes, it felt like he was looking for trouble.


    But he was curious. What kind of girl is Emily to make Hunter so obsessed with


    her?


    "No, I have to go and exin myself. I didn''t mean to mock Hunter."


    "I''ll go for you,'' Henry stood up and walked towards the door.


    His long hair was tied-up behind his head. It was definitely a pretty girl if you look


    from behind.


    But of course, if he wasn''t so tall.


    "What about me?" if Monty didn''t go along, he would have been kill by his


    curiosity.


    "Let''s go" Johnny too stood up and walked past him.


    "See, you are curious too, right?" Monty knew it. Who isn''t curious of Hunter''s first


    love?


    Hunter is obsessed with a girl. It is not amon thing to see. How can they feel unconcern for him?


    They can''t.


    "I can''t save you anymore if you don''t watch your mouthter,'' Johnny warned


    Monty.


    After all, they had been friends for so many years. He didn''t want to see Monty


    end up on a hospital bed.


    "Yes, sir! I will keep my mouth shut and say nothing." Monty raised his hand and


    swore.


    Johnny ignored him and walked out of the club. Hunter stood right in front of the main entrance of the club.


    Meanwhile, Henry stood near to Hunter.


    The direction both of them were looking at is the main entrance of a KTV across


    the street.


    A few young adults were walking out of the KTV and heading towards the street.


    When Hunter thought of what Emily said about ''not interfering her life'', he got


    cranky.


    It was a rule he made, but now he is restrained by his own words.


    Hunter will always keep his promise.


    When he said he wouldn''t interfere, he wouldn''t.

    The direction both of them were looking at is the main entrance of a KTV across


    the street.


    A few young adults were walking out of the KTV and heading towards the street.


    But now, she seemed to be able to eat a lot of food.


    Henry patted him on the shoulder and walked out of the shadow to the night


    market.


    "Well, your wife doesn''t know me either. I also can go there." Monty wanted to


    walk over.


    But his cor was caught. Hunter pulled him back.


    "Brother, it''s a murder!"


    His strength was so hard that he almost broke his neck.


    "If you don''t let me go, I won''t go. Why are you so rude? No wonder your wife


    abandons you, and is together with another man... Oh! Brother, I''m wrong!"


    Hunter just nced at him coldly, then turned and walked toward a nearby restaurant.


    Johnny kicked Monty, "If you talk nonsense again, Young Master will let someone


    sew your mouth with a needle."


    "He will not."


    "I guess." Johnny also went into the restaurant and took a seat where he could


    watch


    clearly.


    Johnny could only choose a second best position. Seeing Henry approaching


    Emily, he was so excited that he closed the ss wall.


    She was the first girl who made Hunter so anxious and upset. He wanted to go


    and talk to her.


    But it was not this time. He would wait for another time.


    When Hunter was not at his side, he would find her.


    As soon as Emily and her friends ordered, they began to talk about business.


    "Rufus, the level of your coloring at present wont let you have a good


    assignment."


    Rufus had been smiling and talking with Sally. But when he heard her words, his expression became worse.


    In fact, he knew his shorings. After Lois said that they would really enter thepetition, he also wanted to quit.


    "Well, I''ll help you with the chores. I will usually practice more, and I won''t participate in the event of yourpetition, is that OK?"


    Today, he was so angry with Emily that he ran out of the studio. Later, Lois said


    that Emily would invite her to dinner.


    He had calmed down, and he just met with Sally. So he decided to ask Emily to


    But his mood was ruined before singing.


    "I didn''t say I wouldn''t let you stay in the club. You are such a good painter. Of


    course, you should stay. I won''t waste talent."


    Emily blinked and looked at him, "You must be in thispetition, too. Don''t run


    away.


    Rufus was stunned. Lois and Sally were puzzled.


    "Emily, what do you mean?"


    She said that Rufus was not very good at coloring just now. Their club was really


    short of people, but they would not leave people with poor levels.


    However, if they took inferior painting to participate in such arge-scalepetition, they wouldn''t even pass the preliminarypetition.


    "I said you''re not good at coloring, but I didn''t say you''re not good at anything


    else."


    Emily looked at Sally, "You can show us the original pattern I gave you today."


    However, Sally was staring at Henry who was not far away, unwilling to look away


    from him.


    "So handsome, Emily, how handsome he is!"
