Chapter 424 -424: Brandon Piers’ Jealousy

Abigail Green stared blankly at the person in front of her, clearly not expecting him to nod.

“Then why did you… Forget it, Dr. Smith is no longer here. Asking these questions is meaningless. If Dean Foster has no other matters, may I leave? My fiancé is still waiting for me.” Abigail wanted to ask. Since he knew everything, why did he treat her that way?

In the end, she decided to give up. What was the point of asking? It would only add to her sadness and make her seem even more ridiculous.

She felt a bit relieved that she did not soften her stance earlier.

“Miss Green, I… It’s not what you think.” Jeffrey Foster felt that Abigail misunderstood him and wanted to explain, but found himself at a loss for words. Anything he said seemed powerless and pale.

“Dean Foster, there’s no need to explain to me.” Abigail looked at the person in front of her. Her gaze was clear and calm. After speaking, she waved her hand. “Goodbye.”

It was not only a farewell to the man in front of her but also a goodbye to her immature feelings of the past.

Just as she took a step forward, Jeffrey Foster seemed to feel something and grabbed her wrist.

Abigail’s face showed slight surprise. She lowered her head to look at Jeffrey’s hand holding her wrist and took a deep breath, intending to ask him to let go. However, the next moment, her other wrist tightened, and she was pulled into a clean, cold embrace. Looking up, she saw Brandon Piers’ handsome face darkened with an expression that could drip water. Just as she was about to explain, she heard Brandon’s hushed voice. “Shut up.”

“Dean Foster, what is this fetish of yours? Harassing a married woman? How low!” Before Abigail could explain, Brandon had already aimed his explosive temper at Jeffrey.

Jeffrey had never suffered such humiliation. However, just now, he had indeed tried to hold onto Abigail. So, facing Brandon’s aggression, he couldn’t find a single word to explain himself. Instead, seeing Abigail naturally leaning against Brandon’s embrace, he finally confirmed that the person in front of him was not his junior sister.

How could his junior sister possibly shift her affections?

With a self-mocking smile, Jeffrey realized he was deluded. He bowed apologetically to Brandon and Abigail. “I’m sorry. I was presumptuous.”

“Hmph.” Brandon snorted coldly, feeling secretly relieved that he got out of the car. Otherwise, his little chubby would have been taken away by this unscrupulous doctor.

“Don’t be angry. Dean Foster just mistook me for someone else.” Abigail explained softly, seeing Brandon still fuming.

Brandon felt a pang in his heart but showed more displeasure on his face. “How blind must his eyes be to mistake you? My little chubby is unique. Dean Foster, please look carefully next time.”

“Heh.” Jeffrey could barely maintain his smile.

Fortunately, Brandon did not dwell too long on it. Looking at Abigail, he said, “Let’s go. I’ll deal with you at home.”

Abigail, “…”

What happened to gentlemanly manners?

How could he say such words in public?

Abigail sighed helplessly and nodded apologetically at Jeffrey. “Goodbye, Dean Foster.”

“Goodbye, my foot! What’s there to say goodbye about?” Brandon scoffed, practically dragging Abigail into the car.

In the car, Brandon’s face did not improve.

It looked like storm clouds were hanging over the city.

Pullan, sitting in the front passenger seat, tried his best to minimize his presence. Moon Lake Manor was different from the old Piers family home. If the second young master suddenly decided to make him run three laps or prune the garden, he would be in big trouble.

While Pullan could shrink back, Peter, who was driving, couldn’t. He had to sit up straight, enduring the dark clouds above. He felt like he might have worn too thin clothes today. Next time, he’d better let his wife dress him warmer.

This Swallow City climate was indeed much colder than Gills City.

Abigail rubbed the goosebumps on her arms. “Is there really a need to be this angry? You don’t think I would have anything with Dr. Foster, do you?”

“You still want to have something with him?” Brandon looked at Abigail in astonishment.

Abigail decided to play it safe and be silent.

“You not answering means you do?” Brandon got even angrier when he saw Abigail shuffle into the corner.

Abigail, “…I don’t.”

This unreasonable man!

Brandon got more upset listening to Abigail’s timid tone. He remembered Jeffrey’s unwilling gaze when he grabbed Abigail and the information showing that this woman had followed the Foster’s footsteps for nearly ten years. He felt a sourness in his stomach.

What was worse, Jeffrey seemed to have guessed who Abigail was. If they reconnected…

Brandon didn’t dare to think further, sitting gloomily in the car, surrounded by a cold aura that made the other three feel a sense of doom.

Brandon did not speak the rest of the way. Several times, Abigail wanted to explain, but seeing the distant look on his handsome face, she swallowed her words silently.

When they arrived at Moon Lake Manor, it was already three in the afternoon.

Brandon got off the car before Abigail and walked away with a cold face.

Abigail, “…”

Watching his aloof back, Abigail wanted to explain but was more concerned about Teddy. She got off the car a moment later and hurried to the baby’s room on the second floor, only to find Teddy missing.

Worried, she was about to call Kelly when she heard giggling from outside the window. Puzzled, she walked over and saw Kelly, Aunt Claudia, and even Housekeeper Piers in the backyard. On the large lawn, Teddy was crawling, occasionally grabbing a toy and giggling happily.

Looking farther, she saw a crescent-shaped lake wrapping around half of the estate. In the bright afternoon sunlight, it sparkled. Teddy and the others were at the center of Moon Lake.

Or rather, their house aligned perfectly with the center of Moon Lake.

Abigail finally understood the name of Moon Lake Manor. There indeed was a lake, a beautiful crescent moon-shaped one. The whole estate, its plants, animals, and even people, seemed nurtured by this Moon Lake.

Witnessing this, Abigail admired the Piers’ wealth even more. She felt a new, strange sensation in her heart. Maybe the Piers family was more complex than she thought.

Even though Moon Lake Manor was far from the city center, it was not remote. Owning such a vast estate, including a lake that could be a tourist spot, couldn’t just be about money.

Considering the Piers’ century-old legacy, without strong backing, they couldn’t have thrived smoothly, let alone dominated half of the nation’s healthcare industry.

“Abigail, come down quickly.” As Abigail pondered, Aunt Claudia saw her standing by the window and cheerfully urged her.

Abigail snapped back to reality, waving at Aunt Claudia and then heading downstairs.

Regardless of the Piers family’s background or what challenges Brandon faced, Abigail knew she couldn’t separate from him or the Piers family. So no matter how murky the waters, she’d have to wade through them.

Thinking this way, Abigail stopped worrying about the complexities and walked briskly to the backyard to play with Teddy.

Soon, Teddy’s laughter filled the backyard again.
