Chapter 400 I’m Together with Your Brother
“It’s raining. What are you standing here? Aren’t you afraid of catching a cold?”
A man’s gentle voice was heard from behind, interrupting the gossip between the two sisters, but it was not William.
As soon as Cierra heard the voice, she turned her head and saw a man in a dark suit holding an umbrella in his hand.
The black umbrella also covered the top of Cierra’s head, perfectly blocking the rain droplets that gathered into drops, releasing a light noise on the umbrella’s surface.
Cierra took the umbrella. She couldn’t describe his feelings at the moment. She just covered herself and Lydia with the umbrella and stared blankly at Bruno with her beautiful eyes.
“Why, why are you here?”
“What’s wrong? Cici, are you unhappy to see me?”
Bruno stood at the foot of the stairs, his gaze perfectly level with hers. His smiling eyes sparkled under the cold wind and mist. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
In fact, there was no need to use an umbrella in this weather. It seemed that there was no rain, but there was a layer of mist in the air. In such an environment of L’Opera Restaurant, there were a few drops of water falling from time to time.
For example, at this moment, raindrops were falling on Bruno’s shoulder.
He didn’t look embarrassed at all. He still stood straight in front of Cierra and didn’t move at all.
Being stared at by him, Cierra blushed and turned his head away in embarrassment. “Of course not. I was just surprised to see you here because I thought you were busy in Chicago.”
As early as when Will was recuperating, she had confirmed her relationship with Bruno, and Bruno had been busy slowly shifting the focus of the West family’s work to Los Angeles.
In fact, Cierra didn’t think it was necessary. Not to mention that their relationship hadn’t been completely settled yet, no one could guarantee that nothing would happen in the future, just like her and Draven. Moreover, means of communication and traffic were developed now. There was no need to shift his focus on work.
However, since Bruno insisted, it was useless for her to persuade him. She could only allow him to make the decision.
As a result, they did not meet each other again during this period of time. They only communicated by phone.
The news of her returning to New York was confirmed yesterday. She did not send Bruno a message about her flight and tell him that she would come to L’Opera Restaurant first.
But if the listener wanted to meet her, he could always find a way to find her.
So, at the right time, he appeared in front of her.
“Cough.”
While they were in a deadlock, the atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by a cough from behind.
William said impatiently.
“Hey, what are you doing here? It’s not raining heavily, so don’t be so romantic. You’re blocking the way in front of the shop.”
After being shouted at like that, Cierra felt even more embarrassed.
It was also different from when she subconsciously argued with William, when she was scolded for the first time, she would squint William’s eyes and receive his curse!
He glanced at Bruno and silently moved the umbrella closer to Lydia.
“William, we are waiting for you.”
She said shamelessly that she could do whatever she wanted with Lydian being with her. Anyway, she had an umbrella now, so it was not William’s place to blame her for getting wet in the rain.
Lydia hadn’t come to her senses yet. The new gossip aroused her interest in a couple. She was looking at the handsome man and beautiful woman through the rain when she was suddenly interrupted by William.
When she heard Cierra’s voice, she glared at William.
William was speechless.
Well, they all blamed him.
Bruno did give a face to William. He turned around with a smile and made way for William.
“It’s my fault. I blocked their way here and chatted with Cici. William, you’re right.”
These words made William angrier.
He glared fiercely at Bruno and wanted to leave. “Who’s William? Stop trying to be close to me and get lost.”
After that, he led the way, leaving the three people behind.
Lydia patted the back of Cierra’s hand with a meaningful gaze. Then, he followed up with William and left behind Cierra and Bruno, who were holding umbrellas.
On the wet stone steps, the trees were lush, and occasionally, withered yellow leaves fell with heavy raindrops.
“Just now… don’t take William’s words seriously.”
Cierra held up the umbrella and placed it on top of Bruno’s head, just in time to block the raindrops from falling from the tree.
Bruno took it and took a step up the stairs with his legs. He stood on the same stone steps as Cierra.
He held the umbrella and said slowly, “It doesn’t matter. It’s natural for William to worry about you. If he treats me well, he won’t keep you in his heart. Cici, you should be happy. You have many good brothers.”
Regardless of whether it was Jaquan or William, it was obvious that they doted on Cierra. It was truly enviable.
He was also very happy that Cici had so many people who loved her now.
The suffering she had suffered in the past could be eased one by one in the future.
She didn’t ask about the past but only looked forward to the future.
“Cici? Why are you with him?”
Bruno entered L’Opera Restaurant with Cierra, holding an umbrella. Just as he was putting away the umbrella, he heard a familiar and irritable voice.
He handed the umbrella to the waiter of the L’Opera Restaurant. He stretched out his arms to protect Cierra and looked straight at Ryan.
“Is there a problem for Cici to be with me?”
As soon as he finished speaking, his vigilant gaze turned to the figure next to Ryan.
Although he didn’t say a word, Draven stared at Cierra with his sharp gaze.
It had been a while since they last met, but Mr. Trevino had changed a lot.
The dark suit made him look even taller. There were obvious burn marks on his left face to his chin, but when they fell on his thin face, they added a touch of masculinity to him, as if he had gone to the battlefield and left indelible marks.
When Cierra returned to New York, she had wanted to meet Draven again, but she didn’t expect it to happen so soon.
She didn’t ignore Draven’s gaze. She looked into his eyes and turned to answer Ryan’s question.
“Ryan, I’m sure I’m with Bruno. I hope you won’t be so surprised next time, and don’t say anything rude. I don’t ask for your blessing, but I hope you can respect my choice. In addition, Bruno is your brother. You shouldn’t treat him like this.”
Ryan was stunned. He didn’t expect to hear this news.
He widened his eyes, pointed at Bruno, and said in disbelief, “Cici, you’re with him. Do you know that he…”
“I know.”
Before Ryan could finish his words, Cierra interrupted him.
After Bruno expressed his feelings for her, her brothers handed all the information about Bruno to her and asked her to read it before making a choice.
When she woke up the next day, she received another message from Bruno.
It was almost the same as the information collected by her brothers. Dozens of pages recorded the grudges of the West family.
It was his personal experience to be ridiculed behind his back.
The purpose of those unscrupulous means was to seek justice for his mother.
He was just treating his enemy in his own way. Was there anything wrong with that?
