Chapter 67: He Is My Brother
"Of course, if you do not have any money with you, I can pay for it." The man took a fancy suit and thrust it into her arms without lifting his eyelids. He said," Go to change it and I will pick other clothes for you." Cathy stood still, Her sight gradually cold down. It seemed like she was brewing some emotions.
Tyrone casually picked up a suit of clothes and he said without emotions, " If you still want to work, be obedient. Mr. Brown would not need a pregnant woman to be his assistant, does he?" Cathy had her sight gloomy and the breathe sanked.
He was threatening her!
However, he was right. The company got to have a paid maternity leave, but it was only the base salary, no bonus or push money. Her family's current situation could not support for much longer without them. Besides, the workplace was so intense now. She had managed to get through to the position of manager not easily. Someone would take her place immediately anytime when she was gone.
She could not lose her job now, or there will be more trouble after the baby was born. After all, she remembered her mother's words in the hospital.
"Tyrone, if you let me lose my job, I will certainly drag the children to ruin you."
Although that was said, she went to the dressing room with her clothes in her arms.
Tyrone glanced at her. He did not speak and continued to pick clothes.
"Pack all these suits."
"Yes, just a moment, please." The saleswoman, looking at the handsome man in front of her, blushed and turned to get the bags.
Cathy changed her clothes and looked in the mirror. She had to admit in her mind that the fancy clothes was more comfortable than the bargain she had bought, they are also in fashion and tasteful. She was quite pursuing these, with her own wages. She did not shopping the brand less. Of course, she dolled herself up to please him, but he may not even noticed.
She was self-deprecating by curling her lips. She looked through the mirror and saw a few boxes packed by the saleswoman. Her face changed, and turned to walk over," These are all mine?" Tyrone looked at her with an understatement.
"I got enough clothes at home so I don't need all these. This one on me is all I need." She did not want to be embarrassed because the salewoman was looking at her, so she was not getting so angry. "Come on, buy more, I will not have that much time." The man naturally took the wallet from her hand, found a credit card and handed it over.
Cathy was stunned and she tried to reach for the card, "I got time myself."
It had nothing to do with her if he has time. Her credit card would be over drafted all the credits by all those clothes.
Tyrone's arms were very long and he was tall. He dodged her hands easily and passed the card to the saleswoman, "You'd better not to come to this kind of place yourself. Take the order from the internet and let them deliver the goods if you need anything."
Cathy was embarrassed. Before she dissed back, she heard the saleswoman's admiration: "Madam, your husband is not only handsome but also so considerate. You are living in such a happy life. " "You are mistaken. He is my brother." You called it considerate even he was using her card to pay the bills? This girl was fooled by the man's pretty face.
Brother?
The saleswoman was so embarrassed by her words that she chuckled and swiped the card with her head down.
Tyrone's face suddenly turned a little bad, but he did not show it too obvious. After all, a brother was better than a ex-husband.
After the bills were paid, in the saleswoman's courteous courtesy, Cathy got out from the store and she was pitying the lavished money.
A month's pay was vanished.
The clothes were delivered to her residence so she did not need to carry them. Tyrone ignored her little expression. He led her to a shoe store.
Cathy found out that and she retreated with holding her wallet tightly, " Enough! Tyrone! Have you finished? I don't need these clothes or shoes. Can you be steady for a while?"
It was not spending his money so he felt no pain, did he?
The man glanced at her bare white ankle and frowned," It is getting cold. Do not wear such short socks."
Cathy knew that he won't listen to her. At that moment, she caught a glimpse of the children's wear area downstairs and pulled him over, "Let's go pick the children's clothes if you want to buy clothes." They were going to be bought anyway. It was better to prepare some kid's wear at home. Such a waste to buy a pile of clothes for herself. It was better to turn the man's attention.
Tyrone frowned and took a glance at her but he did not refuse. He was planned to buy some kid's wear only afraid she was unwilling to go.
At children's wear area, these two persons picked the clothes around just liked a wife and a husband.
However, in the most of time, it was Cathy picking the clothes and Tyrone was following closely with a shopping cart. The expression of him was mild without too much emotion, but also no impatience at all. Influenced by the view of childlike, Cathy felt that she became a real mother. She gradually revealed a gentle smile on the face. She forgot completely that a ex-husband who made her sad was following her. Tyrone stared down at her side face. His heart was touched by something. The firm facial features gently soften down.
The children, and her... he had never thought about it before. On the one hand, it was because he was too busy at work, on the other hand, she was too well-behaved to be noticed. They were all looking after their own business and they could not look after each other.
"Tyrone, look at this... "Cathy saw a stuffed toy. She turned back to smile at him happily. She captured the warm sight of Tyrone on her that he had no time to hide.
Her heart trembled and she was suddenly stunned.
He had never looked at her like that, and for a moment he seemed like a delusion.
His eyes were eager. Suddenly, he bent over and kissed her lips.
In a sound of click, this scene was shot by a person at far side.
A group of three young women, fashion and sexy. The middle one of the woman looked at the photo taken and looked at the far side. Her face turned angrily gray and her eyes were full of envy. "Marian, they... I thought they were divorced. How could it?"
The one in the middle was Marian Johnson. She was shopping accompanied by two sisters in the afternoon. She was originally happy and she was not expecting to meet Tyrone. She saw Cathy, too before was going to say hello to Tyrone.
That bitch, still haunting him even they were divorced. She was still so shameless.
"What else?A shameless woman that wants to seduce any man!" Marian gnashed and cursed.
"But...There is nothing wrong. They are hanging around at the child's wear area, aren't they?" The one of the group pointed the sign and confused.
Marian sneered," That's why she is a bitch. Seduce a man while being a young stepmother for another man's child. This woman is really a bitch."
"Another man's child?" Her friend confused, touching her jaw and stared at Cathy for a while then said," She is wearing a flattie and her clothes are loose. I thought she was pregnant."Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Women knew each other well and they were not only women but also women who loves gossips. These gossip women, got used to found out which female stars were hiding from pregnant. Therefore, they could recognize Cathy was pregnant immediately.
The words awakened Marian. Her face suddenly changed and she looked back at her friends," What did you say? She was pregnant?"
The other two young women was frightened by the reaction of Marian. They blinked their eyes and replied carefully, " I... I was just guessing." Marian looked at the other two and her eyes suddenly became very scary. She smiled in a strange way and said," Let's see if she if really pregnant." If she was pregnant, no matter who's kid it was, Marian would not let her having any easy life. Especially if the was Tyrone's.
