“Dr. Joye’s is fully booked for the next two years.” Cailyn rejected him without hesitating. Brycen and
Russell were very clever. They stayed where they were and did not say anything They did not dare to
start anything. Molly had it very clear that she did not like Adam.
Adam was shocked. He did not expect that Caitlyn would reject him so straightforwardly. “I’ll pay
anything.”
It was not easy to meet Dr. Joye, and she was so near to him this time. There was no way that he
would let this opportunity slip! A brush of unhappiness flashed across Caitlyn’s eyes, “Dr. Joye doesn’t
work for money.” Was he insulting Dr. Joye? Did he think that he could make Dr. Joye work for him just
because he had money?
If he asked around, he would know that Dr. Joye had a rule of not treating wealthy people. “You haven’t
even asked Dr. Joye yet. How did you know that she won’t take this job?” Adam said while grinding his
teeth while suppressing his anger. ‘You’re just an assistant. Did you think you’re Joye?’
He would not bother staying here if it was not for Joye.
Caitlyn smiled as she said to herself inwardly. ‘What a shameless man!’
“Dr. Joye hates playboys the most. She would never take any job from a playboy!” She said each word
clearly and left after she was done talking. All Adam got was just a receding and cold back
Adam’s face turned angry as he held his fists tightly. Lastly, he left with an awful look on his face.
Russell could not help but laugh after Adam left. “Your assistant is pretty interesting.”
How did she come up with those words when her mentor was just right beside her?
She was almost calling Adam a playboy in his face!
How courageous!
Molly did not respond to what Russell said. She looked at Brycen and her attitude became cold again
like when they first met.
“You didn’t have to stand up for me. I’m only treating you for grandpa’s sake, not because you’re my
brother. To me, grandpa is my only kin in the entire May family.”
She was extremely cold while she said that. The sunlight shined through the window and dispersed
around her. It made her look even distant.
Brycen was stunned. He looked at her and said, “I know, but I didn’t stand up for you to please you.
You might not believe this, but I really treat you as my own sister.” At that moment, he had a flashback
as he said to Molly, “Diana has always been a crafty
person since we were young. I never liked her too much and I was never very close to her. Well, she
was not my blood sister anyway. Besides, I rarely go back home in these few years, so our relationship
got even worse.” A brush of indifference flashed across Brycen’s face, and it somehow gave Molly a
familiar feeling
It seemed like they both had an unhappy childhood. At that moment, she could relate to him and
resonate with him.
Molly was feeling a little uncomfortable, but she hid this strange feeling away as she continued listening
to him.
“Instead, I heard a lot about you from grandpa. I always thought to myself that I would come back here
to meet you whenever you came home. I just didn’t expect that we’d meet under such circumstances.”
Brycen smiled bitterly while he said that.
“The May family did you wrong all these years, and I didn’t do my job as your brother too. I can
understand that you don’t want to acknowledge me as your brother, but I want to treat you nicely. You
don’t have to feel burdened or anything.”
“Okay?” His tone was gentle. It seemed like the white and soft blanket covered his edge. He was like a
melted snowflake, a puddle of clear water under the spring sun.
Even his eyes looked warm.
Molly was shocked as she stood there.
The unpleasant feelings that she felt came back up again as if Brycen’s words turned i ice arrow that
pierced right through her heart before melting in there.
She felt pain in her heart. A slight and tiny pain.
