Chapter 433 Barney and Eliana
Chapter 433 Barney and Eliana
“I don’t know that.”
That was the entirety of Jason’s reply.
“Did he like Eliana and grow to hate you? I remember that you faked being in a relationship with Eliana
and a lot of people thought of you two as the golden boy and girl, when in reality the two of you didn’t
get anywhere. Did Barney misunderstand that? But it’s been so many years, does he still want
revenge?”
“How would I know that? I’ll just investigate Barney some more. But you say that I faked being in a
relationship with Eliana. What’s that about?”
Robert suddenly thought of Wesley’s unknown mother, and was afraid of some ex-girlfriend popping up
and getting in between him and Georgia.
Especially with Wesley’s mother appearing. He was still worried with Eliana popping up all of a sudden
even if Jason said they were in a fake relationship.
“I really don’t know. Back then, the whole school was rife with rumors that you were together with
Eliana. Jasper and I asked you about it back then about what was going on, while you said it was fake
but we didn’t need to clear it up and could just let everyone misunderstand you. You clearly didn’t
intend to tell us your reasons so Jasper and I didn’t ask about it. It’s been so long that I almost didn’t
remember it.
“Don’t worry about it now. You and Eliana were definitely never a pair. Besides, even if you’d been in a
relationship, that was years ago. You’re with Georgia now, and you don’t think she’s going to get hung
up about that, do you?”
Robert smiled faintly. Of course that wasn’t what he was worried about. He just felt that Eliana was
involved, and with her being so prominent in his past, it might affect his life now.
But he just couldn’t remember. That was the titillating part.
After talking about Barney, Robert looked at Miranda, who was waiting quietly at the side.
Robert actively said thanks to Miranda.
“Thank you for helping Georgia today, Miss Bradly. If you need the Simpson family’s assistance with
anything from now on, please just speak up. I’ll remember your favor today.”
Miranda stood and smiled.
“You’re friends with Jason. As his future wife, it’s only a small thing. We’ll count as family from now on,
and Georgia will become like a sister to me. Even passersby should help each other, and I’m helping
Jason’s friend to begin with. You have to keep watch over him from now on so some other bimbo
doesn’t tangle up with him. If you can do that, I’d be really thankful.”
At Miranda’s words, Jason was embarrassed and exasperated, but he wasn’t annoyed.
Robert smiled.
“Don’t worry. Jason’s really a big softie inside. I’ll watch him for you and keep him faithful to you.”
Jason couldn’t help but complain internally that this bastard was selling him out for his wife.
Apparently it was gals before pals out here.
But he did find Miranda especially cute whenever she bossed him around. That was also why he
always let her have her way.
He liked her bossy side. Maybe he liked being abused. Jason spared a moment to feel disgusted with
himself.
As Robert said that, he saw that Selena had just finished dinner.
Elliot and Bailey weren’t there.
Thinking of what had happened with Jasper, Robert felt the need to ask Selena if something else had
happened.
He spoke up.
“Selena, do you have some hidden troubles? Or something your brother can’t know. You can talk about
it and let us help.”
As Robert said that, Selena grew a bit dubious.
She didn’t quite understand what Robert was saying.
“Can you be a bit clearer about it, Robert? I don’t quite take your meaning.”
“I saw Jasper this morning and he told me he feels like something’s off with you. He thinks you’re
hiding a lot from him. Jasper feels like you have some difficulty and you’re always holding something
back in your eyes. He doesn’t understand what’s happened to you and he’s really worried about you.” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
At that, Selena’s hand scrunched together and her face turned pale. Robert continued.
“I know that everyone has things they don’t want to talk about. But you’re brother and sister. What’s
there not to talk about? He cares about you a lot. And the way he sees it, you were the one to donate
the kidney to him this time, and he owes you. He doesn’t understand why you look so guilty. I don’t
know if he’s misunderstanding anything, but come on, Selena, you know what your brother is like. You
know he’s optimistic and generous, but he cares about you as a sister a lot. If you have any secret you
can’t say, he might be able to hold it in, but he can tell that you’re not happy about the secret and even
upset about it. That he can’t stand.
“Find an opportunity to talk to him about it, if you could. He’s angry about it but you had your operation,
so he can’t really say anything while you recover. I shouldn’t be the one to say this but I bumped into
you here, so I had to say it here. Don’t tell Jasper, in case he gets on my case after he hears about it.”
Selena lowered her head, not daring to look up at Robert.
Jasper guessed what was up right away and dragged Robert out.
“Really, of all the things to mention. I’ll tell you about this later. Don’t get involved in Jasper and
Selena’s sibling affairs. You know this before, but you forgot the past, so you’re not aware of how
complicated this is. It’s not the best time to talk about this today. We’ll find a chance to discuss it next
time. Hurry up and go see your wife. I’ll smooth things over with Selena and come find you.”
Robert didn’t quite understand. No matter which way he cut it, it looked like Jason knew something
about what had happened between these two siblings.
But since Jason had said to talk about it later, he could only nod and leave.
With Georgia having woken up for so long, it was time to do what he needed to and visit her.
As in the room, after Robert and Jason left, there was only Selena and Miranda left inside.
Miranda actually wasn’t too willing to be here with Selena. She suspected Jason and Selena had some
kind of relationship before. Call it woman’s intuition.
And the two families had even discussed marriage. She considered Selena her number one rival.
Her original plan had been to visit Georgia with Jason, or see Jasper, but both of them hadn’t woken up
yet.
Unexpectedly, she’d followed Jason in to see Selena.
After coming in, other than a polite greeting, Miranda didn’t talk much with Selena.
She didn’t know her too well and observing her from a close distance, she seemed to have a quiet
personality, and ought to be a nice girl.
If they’d been friends, they might have been good ones.
But she just had to be a potential rival, which threw Miranda off.
It wouldn’t do to get close but it wouldn’t do to separate herself, so Miranda just stood there awkwardly
in the room looking at Jason talk with Selena.
The two were only chatting as friends, but she felt a bit panicked.
Then, unexpectedly, because of Robert’s sudden question, Jason had just dragged him off without a
care in the world.
Now the two of them were left there in the room and the atmosphere was very awkward.
Miranda decided to keep silent. She really didn’t know what to say.
Selena, though, looked at this Miss Bradley before her, recalled everything that had happened in the
past, and couldn’t help but raise a question.
