Love You Can’t Say

How mean he was!

I thought about it and said, “Are you going to invite the Lewis family?”

He said, “There aren’t many families of distinction and status in City P. I should invite them all. What, you don’t want to see them?”

I shook my head. “No!” I thought about it and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to see them. I’m thinking about doing something.”

I used to hate Luna, but when I hurt Olivia, I suddenly relented, probably because of Dennis.

I suddenly didn’t want to fight on, after all, there was still a long way to go. If I kept fighting the Lewis family so hard, would the rest of my life be easier?

He said after a pause, “It’s up to you, but Clara, Olivia’s like this, do you…”

“I’ll think about it!” I hung up the phone, feeling a little irritable.

It was always cloudy in City P. I was in a daze when Jackie called.

When I answered, I heard some other noise on her side. “Miss Kennedy, are you coming back to Newton Town for the New Year?”

“I don’t know yet. I’ll ask Dennis later. What’s up?” The New Year was only decade days away.

Most of the company was on holiday, and I couldn’t help but say, “You went back to Newton Town?”

She nodded and said cheerfully, “I’ve been back for a few days. I thought you were coming back, too. I was out shopping and I ran into Mr. Collins. He was with a nice-looking man with a child. I haven’t seen him in a while. I think he’s changed a lot lately.”

I did not know which Mr. Collins she meant, so I said, “Mr. Collins?”

“Well, the young president of Jo Turner Credit Co., Ltd., Luis Collins, son of Luna Knight.”

It suddenly occurred to me that it was Luis Collins, whom I hadn’t seen in, like, half a year.

I couldn’t help saying, “I haven’t talked to him for a long time. I don’t know how he is now.”

“Yeah, yeah. He’s got a man with a kid. Is he gay? I think they were very close. The baby looked only two or three months old, a tiny one, so cute.”

I was a little distracted and said, “Could you take a photo for me?”

“Huh? Why do you suddenly want a photo?”

“Take a photo of them for me, please!”

I thought it might be Alex, and the baby might be Diana’s.

She said yes and hung up with me. I called Alex, but there was no answer.

I thought about it, then I called Luis, and he answered, “Miss Kennedy, why are you calling me all of a sudden?”

“Mr. Collins, are you in Newton Town? A friend of mine has a problem in Newton Town. Can you go there for me?”

He paused for a few seconds, then said, “I’m in Country M now. Is it serious? I’ll send the people down in Newton Town to have a look.”

“Never mind. I’ll call my other friends. I’m gonna go. I’ll talk to you later.” Why did Luis lie to me?

Jackie’s message came in. Inside the Newton Town center building, Luis looked handsome and relaxed in a brown coat, hands in pockets. The photograph was not clear enough, but the haggard look on his face was still visible.

He was accompanied by Alex, wearing a camel sweater and casual pants. The two were pushing the stroller. Two guys with a kid, which was pretty impressive.

I called Jackie again and she picked up the phone, probably she was looking at it.

I said, “Jackie, I might have to bother you. I need you to keep an eye on where they live, especially the man and child with Luis Collins. And check to see if Diana is with him.”

Alex said before that they were in Country M and it was too cold to walk around with a child. They weren’t coming back until the New Year, and now they were in Newton Town.

I always felt like Diana wouldn’t have been able to put up with not contacting me. Given the timeline, she would have at least called to ask about the baby.

But she hadn’t called me or visited me in all that time. Every time I called, they seemed to be avoiding me.

“Okay, I’ll be with them for a while, you can rest assured.” As I hung up the phone with Jackie, I became increasingly worried.

I kind of had a bad feeling about this.

…

The next day. Leo got things done really fast. Dennis had just left the house when he called.

“Come to Han Center and measure your clothes. Shall I send a car to pick you up?”

I shook my head and got up from bed, still a little sleepy, “I will drive there later, just give me the specific address.”Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

He said, “Hurry up, I’m waiting for you.”

“Okay.”

He was a real hothead.

After hanging up the phone, I washed and went out. Nanny Daisy was afraid that I would be hungry on the way, so she just stuffed me a few steamed buns.

I hadn’t driven the Cadillac I used to drive in Newton Town since Alex drove it and had it serviced.

Later, when I came to City P, Dennis brought me a Cayenne. But I was not used to it. I always felt that it was not easy for me to drive, probably because it was high and I couldn’t handle it.

But it was a very low-key car in a city full of luxury cars.

I was supposed to go directly to Han Center, but when I passed a dessert shop under the downtown building, I couldn’t help thinking about the delicious dessert I had eaten here.

So I drove to the store. Hank took me here after the miscarriage. They had a lot of guests and there was a long line almost every day.

It was not the weekend, plus it was early in the morning and there are hardly any people, so when I came, the store had just opened and there was no queue.

I went all the way around, and I picked out some desserts, all matcha. After I paid, the waiter looked at me with a smile and said, “Miss, the first guest in our store gets a complimentary dessert every day. You can choose another one.”

I smiled and said, “Thank you.”

Although I couldn’t eat all of them, I always felt happy when I came across unexpected surprises while shopping. It was like picking up a dollar on the road. It was not much, but I was still very happy and thought that I was going to be lucky that day.

Out with the dessert, I felt better. I was looking down for my car keys when I was suddenly hit by a passer-by trying to get past the green light.

“Sorry, I’m so sorry!” The man apologized quickly, but he was so busy crossing the green light that he left in a hurry.

Seeing the dessert was knocked out of shape, I felt pity, so I found a rest area to sit down and eat the dessert.
