Chapter 618: What A Coincidence

At this moment, a man walked down from the rolling lift. Seeing this, he suddenly recalled what happened several days ago in front of the door of his castle.

It was that girl and that little fatty boy.

He didn’t expect he would see them here.

"Sir, news from the troop..."

"I am on my vacation. Don’t tell me anything about that." Norman said in a slight voice.

Seeing familiar guys here, he squinted. Out of curiosity, he decided to follow them.

Edie found a coat for Cecil. She liked it. But when she wanted to take it for Cecil to try it, someone stopped her.

"Edie Lara."

Edie frowned and dragged Cecil behind her, "Julia?"

"What a coincidence! I never expected that I could see you again here."

Julia held Edie’s wrist rightly so that Edie felt she could break her hands the next moment. She was trained in the troop for a long time. She was almost as strong as those men.

Edie frowned. She kept struggling to get rid of her. But she couldn’t.

As she didn’t know how to get rid of her, Julia’s wrist was pressed by a big hand.

The hand was so big. The fine hair on hand was dark, like an anthropoid.

Julia felt painful. She loosened hands and stared at him angrily, "who the hell are you? Mind your own business."

"He’s my brother’s boyfriend. I am obliged to help his sister."

Norman made a fake smile and said.

Hearing "boyfriend," Cecil started coughing. He tried to explain immediately, "What? What boyfriend? Don’t make Edie misunderstand me, okay? I am not Arther’s boyfriend. Please."

"Oh. I see, sorry—my apology. My little brother’s male friend," Norman, hid his smile and said.

"That’s right. wait.... that also sounded wrong." Cecil said. But he couldn’t figure out what went wrong immediately.

Hearing his words, Julia said angrily, "Let me go. Or I would make you regret it."

"Oh? Make me regret it? How would you do it? I am really curious," Norman laughed out. But the smile on his firm resolute face looked scary, like the smile of death.

Julia was so confident in her strength. SO she started attacking him immediately.

Every movement was brutal.

However, Norman was quite good at this. He avoided all her attacks. He didn’t even fight back.

Julia got angrier. She spared no effort to attack him. However, she couldn’t even touch the corner of Norman’s clothes.

Norman looked so relaxing. At the moment, he looked like a cat playing a little mouse.

Finally, he was bored. He captured her and said.

"Sorry, I never beat women. It is not my style."

Then he loosened his hands and pushed her away, "Don’t be stupid. Or you would scream out painful next moment."

He raised his fist.

Julia bit her teeth angrily. She never expected Edie still had someone here to help her. She couldn’t accept that Edie could always meet someone that could help her.

She didn’t know the one Norman followed was she.

It was herself that was his target.

Edie was saved. She struggled to message her wrist and said to Norman, "thank you so much, sir. I really appreciate your help."

"You don’t need to thank me. I am just helping this little meatball," Norman crouched down to pinch Cecil’s face, "my little brother talked a lot about you. You are the boy that pretended to be a girl and made him fall in love with you, right? You left so quickly that day. I couldn’t find you when I came back to the living room. Now, since I met you here, I think we can talk about that. What’s the punishment if you lied to relatives of senior officials? What’s the punishment if you fooled around them?"

Hearing these words, Cecil was frightened. The corner of his mouth started trembling.

"If it is not my little brother, I am totally okay with that. But the one that you lied to was my little brother. Have you realized how serious was that? I’ve come up with a plan. Tell me how many lies you’ve told my little brother. And I would cut you into the same number of pieces. What do you say about that? I would start from your belly, inch by inch..."

Norman’s words sounded so bloody that even Edie was frightened, not to mention Cecil. He was just a little innocent boy.

Edie dragged Cecil behind her and said, "both of them are just kids. They didn’t mean it. Moreover, they seemed to get well along with each other. Sir, please don’t be bothering to be arguing with him."

"Well. You are right. I really don’t need to be bothering to argue with this little guy. Then, I should argue with you."

Edie froze, "What? What do you want to argue with me?"

"Yeah. He’s your brother, right? Your brother fooled around with my brother and lied to my brother to get more snacks. My brother’s spent lots of money and time on him. How could you compensate for what your brother’s done?"

Hearing this, Cecil got worried, "I...I don’t even have a penny. My father went out of business. Besides...you are so wealthy. Those snacks won’t have any impact on your wealth."

"Sure?" Norman raised his eyebrows.

Arther had someone to keep his pocket money. He never used his money before. But after meeting with Cecil, he started spending money, a lot. He even started borrowing money from his elder brother, Norman.

Norman was so confused. Arther was just a small boy. How could he be such a foodie? How could he eat too much? Norman thought his little brother’s stomach was like a bottomless pit. It could never be filled up.

Being confronted with such questioning, Cecil looked a little embarrassed. He curled his mouth and said, "Why are you so mean? You are Arther’s elder brother. I think you must be more generous than him."

"Well."

The man-made a sound from his voice. No matter where he was, everyone could see the temper as a soldier on him.

Edie stopped Cecil immediately and said, "You are right. Cecil indeed ate a lot. But he didn’t mean to do that. I have no money here. He should wait for his dad to return home to give him money. Besides....even Cecil owes Arther money, and it is none of your business. Sir, your words made no sense here..."

Under the great pressure, Edie gathered all her courage to say these words out.

Gosh! What Edie feared most in her life were policemen. She never expected that she was forced to refute senior officials in England. Would she be killed by him immediately?

It surprised Norman. He never dreamed that she dared to refute him. He blinked his blue eyes and made an ambiguous smile.

"What’s your name?"

"What...what do you want?"

Did he want revenge on her?

"Tell me, and then the insolvency would be resolved."

"Her name is Edie, Edie Lara. Mr. CEO’s wife. Don’t you dare to touch her," Cecil tried to threaten him to make himself look powerful?

"..."

At the moment, Edie really wanted to beat this little fatty up.

"Edie Lara... Mr. CEO’s wife...." Norman repeated those words as if every word was pressing on his heart. Every word was so heavy for him.

Edie had a bad feeling.

"I see," Norman said in a low voice. He placed his big hands on his waist and turned around.

He left.

Though he wore casual clothes today, he still looked like a soldier. His back was quite straight. His steps were powerful and firm. His body was quite straight, like an arrow, accumulating energy for action.

Seeing him leaving, Cecil finally took relief and said, "Should...should I still pay Arther?"

"Go home. I need to talk to you," Edie said. She looked quite mad at the moment. So she stopped shopping. Then she raised the collar of his clothes and left the supermarket.
