Chapter 185 - Dig Your Secret

It took a long moment before the other line speak. It surprised Hailey after she noticed Bryan\'s voice; it was shaking.

"Bryan?" Is he crying? She asked herself, wondering if her guess was correct.

But why does Bryan do that? Is it because of what she posted? Bryan told her before; he\'s genuinely in love with her. Now, thinking it over, she could not return that kind of love, but still a brotherly love she felt for Bryan.

Glad that he broke her heart. Otherwise, they will end up in an unhappy relationship. How long would they stay married? Two years? Five years? What if she meets Vince after she gets married to Bryan? Might that she could sin? Not to mention that they are both married by then.

Gosh! Fortunately, it didn\'t happen!

"Hi! What can I do for the Princess?" Bryan tried to sound cheerful, but he failed to do that. Hailey could still sense how he\'s about to cry any time soon.

"I have a request from you."

The other line fell silent. Later on, Bryan heaves a long sigh, then he asks, "Are you serious about it, Hail?"

"Are you referring to my post? Then, yes. I am serious about it, Bryan," she replied.

"Then, you are not coming back to me."

"I\'m sorry, Bryan. It won\'t happen. I\'ve already talked to you. But we need to talk, yes. I\'m going home in a few days. Let\'s meet in Sydney for a talk."

"Really? Do you mean that? I mean, can we meet at our favorite restaurant? I haven\'t been there for a long time since..." He could not say it as it was his fault why they broke up.

"Okay. Let\'s meet there. But first, I have something for you to do for me."

"Sure! What is it? Anything! I\'m always here for you. You know that I\'ll do everything for you, even the impossible."

"Are you serious, Bryan?"

"I am, Hail," Bryan answered with the determination that in this way, Hailey finally would forgive him.

"Even if I ask you to kill someone?" she said with a serious tone.

Bryan fell silent for a brief moment. He answered, "I\'m not doing it because you are not this kind of person."

"How if I change a lot now?"

"You always told us that LIFE IS PRECIOUS... Hail, I know you never like the idea of killing someone."

"Then save one!" she shrieked from the other line.

"I will."

"Then save mine." She told Bryan with a low voice. "Bryan, I know Eva is in Australia. But she plans to go home. Bryan, I want you to stop Eva. Please, Bryan, until I can go back there. Never allow Eva to leave Australia. Can you do that for me?"

It confused him why. He knew it would be a piece of cake for Hailey to know that Eva was in Australia. But why is she asking this kind of request?

"What\'s going on, Hail?"

"I can\'t tell you now, but soon. Let\'s have a good talk about everything. But I want to trust you with this. Please, Bryan?"

"I don\'t understand, Hail. I don\'t want to see her again. I want to end everything about us."

"But Bryan... Okay. Can I just explain later?"

"Okay. I\'ll do it. But I was hoping you could tell me why."

"Soon... You will know everything."

He agreed. "Okay. I\'ll wait when you come back."

She now hangs up the call, but Bryan remains to stare at his phone. Later, he took a half-day off and flew to Sydney that day.

Sydney, Australia

Bryan step inside his apartment. He swept his eyes to the living room, it was empty, but only suitcases he saw in the living corner room.

"Bryan, you\'re here!" Suddenly Eva appeared and jumped on him. Her arms were clutching around his waist while she tiptoed to kiss him.

He didn\'t avoid it, and even he doesn\'t like to be kissed by her. But for the sake of Hailey\'s request, he\'ll try to play along with Eva. He doesn\'t want to see Eva again. But he\'s curious why Hailey wanted him to watch Eva closely.

After Hailey makes that call, he phones his men and picks up Eva from the hotel she\'s staying in. And he realized one thing. Eva is having financial problems because of her family. Then how can she afford a five-star hotel?

A year ago, Eva begged him to help her because someone wants to kill her because her family has an enormous debt. To salvage her so-called family financial issues, he gave her all the amount she needed. It cost millions.

But Eva promises to leave him alone after then. Since Hailey\'s dad shoulder all the wedding expenses, he helps Eva because he knew how ruthless the person her family had debt from…

The Huo family.

But after he meets with Eva to give her the money. Things went wrong. And Hailey misunderstands everything. Of course, she will feel betrayed because of the video she receives.

"I\'m sorry, Bryan. But I want you back."

It is what Eva said afterward. And the rest is history; he wants to bury everything.

And now? Something is not correct. It seems like he needs to do some investigation.

"What are you doing?" he asked, using his tender voice. Of course, Eva should not notice that everything is just a pretense.

"I cooked your favorite soup!" Eva replied with a massive smile on her face. "Come here and have a taste if I need to add more salt or pepper? You are a better cook than me."

Eva holds his arm and drags him toward the kitchen. Bryan just followed in silence.

He plans to lock her up in his apartment. So then, whatever is going on in here, he could monitor her movements. According to his men, Eva is leaving the hotel, and she arranges a car to bring her to the airport. Not only that, she booked a flight for P Country.

She\'s really in a hurry to go back home. If Hailey didn\'t make a suspicious request, he would find nothing.

And he\'s still confused. What\'s going on here? He wants to ask Hailey, but for now, he\'ll wait for her return.

"What do you think?" Eva asks him with hopeful eyes that he would like her cooking.

He took the soup ladle from Eva\'s hand. He blows before he draws the spoon to his mouth. "Hmm… It\'s almost perfect. All it needs is more pepper."

"Really?" Eva\'s eyes twinkle with delight. She throws herself into his arms and embraces him tight. "I\'m really happy, Bryan."

He felt disgusted. But he has to bear it until Hailey arrives. It will be in a few days.

"I\'m thinking of ending my life as the man I love is only ignoring me. But you\'re here now! Thank you!"

Bryan darkened his face and gritted his teeth. \'She\'s such a liar! Ending her life? Not! I\'m going to dig your secret, Eva!\'
