Chapter 1686

"Maryanne, what took you so long?"

"Er..."

Maryanne was just about to answer when the newly hired driver said, "Sir, when we were about to come back, there was a man who kept pestering Miss!"

"What? Who is it?" Hobart was instantly on guard.

Maryanne quickly stood in front of the car window to block Hobart's sight. She turned around and whispered to the driver, "Stop talking..."

"Maryanne!" Of course Hobart would not be fooled by her. With the authority as an elder brother, he glared at her, "If you don't explain to me clearly, you can forget about going out in the future."

"Hobart!" Maryanne bit her lower lip. Just as she was about to say something, the driver's voice rang out from behind her. "Sir, that man claimed to be the miss's boyfriend. I said that the her boyfriend died in a car accident, but he asked me to convey his message to you. That not only is he healthily alive, but he will also be with miss for a hundred years."

Maryanne became speechless.

"Great, absolutely great!" Hobart's face was ashen with rage. He grabbed

Maryanne's wrist and pulled her in front of him. "When you told me that it was a class reunion, I was still very happy for you. I thought that you were finally willing to open your heart. But it seems that you're still as foolish as you were in the past!"

Maryanne, who was shocked, tried to explain, "Hobart, I can explain..."

However, Hobart had already guessed who the person who claimed to be her "boyfriend" was. How would he still listen to her excuse?

Hobart was greatly enraged at the thought of his beloved sister deceiving him for the b*stard. "You even lied to be going to a class reunion just to meet him. Are you bewitched? What if he does something bad to you again, have you thought about the feelings of your family?!"

Meeting the anger and fear on his face, Maryanne could not help but had her eyes turned red.

She certainly knew how much her brother and parents cared about her, especially Hobart. During the time, he had cherished her wholeheartedly, afraid that she would face any harm. So the reason why he got so angry was that she had done something disappointing for him.

She could not help but hold his hand and shook it, like how she had asked for candies when she was a child. "Hobart, the person I went to see was Aunt Sierra. Before I went, I even called her and asked her about it. Only after making sure that Milton was not there that I've gone. I didn't expect to see him when I was leaving. I tried my best to get rid of him! Really, please believe me."

The fury in Hobart's heart was mostly eased as he saw the tears welling up in her eyes. "Alright, stop crying! I haven't done anything to you yet you're already crying like this. If the neighbours happen to see it, they'll say I'm bullying you!"

Hobart was a little displeased at this point. She had been willing to face any trouble while being with Milton. Yet she was crying when he had just lectured her slightly, being absolutely a good-for-nothing!

"Hobart, I was wrong..." Maryanne lowered her head and said pitifully, "Don't ignore me."

"I'd rather ignore you, but dad and mom would definitely whack my *ss!" Hobart muttered to himself, but he grabbed hold of Maryanne's shoulder and said softly, "That's enough. Let's go home for dinner. I've waited for you so long that the food has turned cold..."

Maryanne felt even more apologetic. "I'm sorry."
