Chapter 58 The Head On Confrontation
"What is it? I was frightened by your sudden change. " Euralia got nervous as well. She thought that he was about to announce something important.
"I came here today to invite you to attend a classmate reunion." Cale finally came to the point.
"Classmate gathering? Why didn't I hear about it? " Euralia has been in touch with her former classmates, but she hasn't heard that there will be a classmate gathering recently.
"I just got the news today, so I came to tell you."
It reminded Euralia of the accident two days ago. At first, she was framed by Mandy. Two days ago, she was almost raped by several hooligans.
As a matter of fact, she had to ask for her brother's opinions before she went out to attend such activities. After all, her brother had suffered a lot last time.
She asked Bill carefully.
"Bill, may I join in the reunion?"
Seeing that Euralia even couldn't make such a decision for herself, Cale thought that Bill must be very strict with her all the time.
"You haven't fully recovered. You'd better not have a good rest." Bill put down the newspaper in his hands and glanced at Cale.
Knowing that her brother meant well for her, she didn't dare to say anything more. If something went wrong, just like last time, she would not only lose her life but also get her brother into trouble.
In the eyes of Cale, Bill was abusing the power to bind Euralia. Because of him, Euralia didn't dare to make a sound. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
He had already come to invite her, but Bill refused him directly.
"I don't think there is anything wrong with her. But Mr. Bill, you need more rest. Please mind your own business." Cale snapped sharply.
"So what? What do you mean by 'something'? "In Bill's eyes, anything related to Euralia was the biggest.
Even if it was her pet, he would still attach great importance to it, not to mention it was about the relationship between Euralia and her friends.
"Euralia asked you out of politeness whether she could attend the reunion. But you just refused. If you were her, what would you think? "
"If you have something to say, attending a classmate reunion is the most meaningless business for Euralia," Bill countered calmly.
Cale was pissed off. Not only did Bill control Euralia's freedom under the excuse that he was her brother, but he also took it for granted.
"As an elder, you don't know how to respect others. You don't deserve my respect at all. At least, Euralia hasn't freedom to do anything she wants. What's the point of living? "
"Do you, an outsider, have the right to comment on her interesting life?" Bill had a bad impression of Cale, he dared to teach himself a lesson on his own home whose behavior made him angry.
Hearing the quarrel between the two, Euralia was worried that it might get worse and tried to be the peacemaker in a hurry.
"Well, I can go to the gathering next time. I really didn't feel well the other day. My brother has thought it over and won't allow me to go out. "
She knew better than anyone that her brother hadn't restrained her. He was just concerned about her. She didn't want to ruin her harmonious life with her brother just because of a classmate gathering.
"No, we will ask for your presence in this reunion. Do you want to make the class have any regret for that?" Cale insisted on bringing Euralia to the party and arguing with Bill.
She was in a dilemma. She looked at Michelle for help.
"Reunion will be held every few years, sometimes even over a decade. It's not good without Euralia. In fact, she can go home early, so that she doesn't need to worry about her health. "
Michelle also put in a good word for Cale.
However, Michelle didn't have the right to speak with Bill at home! As soon as she stopped, she received a cold glance from Bill, which made her shut her mouth.
"Do you want to go there?" He knew that she disliked it when he forced her. He just gave her a suggestion and did not completely refuse it.
But Cale got anxious, which made Bill more certain that he wanted to do something bad to Euralia. But he couldn't drive him away for Euralia's sake.
It was even more difficult for her to make a choice between her brother and good friend.
"Euralia, what are you waiting for? It's a rare opportunity! " Cale reminded her at once.
Both of them were her dear brother. She didn't want to upset him nor refuse Cale's invitation.
"I'll think it over before I give you a reply." Seeing the scowling face of her brother, Euralia just wanted Cale to go back to the villa first.
"Euralia, I won't stop you if you want to go there," Saying that, he went upstairs.
Cale immediately got close to Euralia and talked for a long time, trying to convince her to attend the reunion.
Euralia's mind flies upstairs with her brother's figure. She could tell that her brother was not happy about this.
"Cale, if you have nothing else to do, you can go back first." Euralia was in a bad mood. She cared about her brother's opinion.
Her previous self-will seemed to be ground bit by bit by the love of Bill.
"When will you give me the answer? Our classmate reunion will be held tomorrow. " Cale said anxiously.
"Mr. Cale, I can't stand it anymore! You can't even mutter like this. In fact, she misses the old. I believe she will make the right decision. "
After Bill left, Michelle finally dared to say anything.
Cale didn't refute her, but added the sentence according to her wishes.
"Euralia, our classmates are waiting for you. I'll go back and wait for your reply,"
As soon as he finished his words, he left. Michelle also followed him to leave with other excuses.
Sitting alone in the living room, Euralia sighed. In fact, she really wanted to go to the reunion, but her brother didn't agree.
As usual, she would play her ace card if her brother didn't agree. Of course, there was no exception this time. Euralia took actions right away.
She guessed that her brother was reading in the study at this moment. She came to the study with a plate of fruit.
"Brother, it's good for your health to have some fruit this afternoon."
He didn't look up at her as he knew what she came for. So he ignored her deliberately. He used to be very obedient to her, and this time he couldn't buy it.
After putting down the fruit platter, she immediately walked behind him and started to massage him.
"I remember that Bill liked me giving you a massage in this way most. Do you feel comfortable?" Said Euralia with a big smile.
The study was still silent. Bill didn't say a word, still holding a book.
"Brother, are you okay? How about I give you a piece of fruit? " She walked over, picked up a piece of fruit with a toothpick and sent it to his mouth.
Bill still ignored her, as if she was invisible.
"Brother! Why don't you talk to me? " She had something important to discuss with him, but he ignored it. Since soft methods couldn't work, she had to use force.
She grabbed the book from his hand and put it on the other side.
"Euralia, don't you see I'm busy?" There was no expression on his face, nor a hint of disgust in his tone.
She knew that her brother might be really angry this time, because what Cale said today was indeed against the purpose.
"I know you are angry. I apologize to you on behalf of Cale. I know you care about me. But the reunion is of great significance. I think... "
"Go get me a glass of water." Bill interrupted her and ordered her.
To please him, she picked up the glass and poured him a glass of water.
He loved her so much that he couldn't bear to let her serve him tea. But when she spoke for Cale just now, he felt uncomfortable.
Bill knew clearly about Euralia' simple mind, so she couldn't figure out Cale's improper feelings for her. That was why he didn't want her to go to the reunion.
"The water is here. What else can I do for you?" She was exceptionally well behaved and obedient today.
This sensible girl was also the last time that Bill had the heart to refuse her.
Bill lowered his head and took a look at the fruit. Euralia immediately understood him and fed him.
"It's my job to serve you. If you like, I can peel you fruits and feed you myself every day,"
These two names made Bill a little uncomfortable.
"Well, I really need to work." After dinner, Bill drove her out.
"Brother, I haven't finished my words." However, Euralia didn't seem to leave at all. She walked to him and grabbed his arm, acting like a spoiled child.
At first, she needed to please him. After all, she was obedient to him. Then she begged him in a sweet voice.
Although this old-fashioned method had been seen through by Bill, he still turned a blind eye to it and enjoyed her intentional flattery.
"Do you have any other requirements?" Bill asked, pretending to be serious.
"Um... Is it possible for me to attend the reunion?" Euralia asked with hesitation. She had worked for a long time to make him happy so that he would allow her to attend.
In fact, she could have acted first and asked for a solution later as before, but she really didn't want to lie to her brother anymore. She didn't want him to worry about her because of her willfulness.
"Do you want to go there?" Bill retorted.
"Of course!" She bit her lips tightly and her hands kept rubbing. When she saw her brother's frown, she felt a little uneasy.
Seeing that her brother was unhappy, she seemed to be unhappy every time.
"But I don't want you to go." Bill stated directly.
In fact, she had already expected the fail of her.
"But all my classmates have gone to the party this time. I am the last one who should be blamed." Answered Euralia softly.
Bill said nothing but heaved a heavy sigh. He knew if he forced her not to attend the party, she would run away from home as before.
"Brother, I don't want to make you embarrassed. I'm fine now. I promise I'll come back early. " Euralia kept putting in good words, hoping that her brother could rest assured to let her go out.
She could understand how upset she was when she was worried about a person, especially at that night in the forest. She still remembered the feeling when she learned that her brother took the risk to find the medicine for her.
Now, Euralia was starting to put herself in others' shoes. That was why she had tried so hard to please him today. Even though she knew that her brother wouldn't agree, she still tried to persuade him.
"You can leave now. I'm busy." Bill did not give her an answer.
Knowing that her brother was in a bad mood, she had to walk out obediently. Turning her head from time to time to look at her brother, she suddenly became depressed.
She went to the back garden and sat on the swing. She picked a flower and counted the petals.
"Go? Or not?"
Standing on the balcony, Bill witnessed the scene and his eyes grew dim.
