The Heiress’ Return & Revenge

Chapter 245

Chapter 245 Why Is the Gap So Big?

Standing at the doorway, Andrew heard Jodie’s flirtatious voice.

He thought to himself, This time, Reuben should agree, right?

Reuben, with indulgence, said, “What comfort can this bring?

“It would be better to find a skilled psychologist for a treatment. It will be more effective.”

He asked, “Should I help you make the contact? How could luck be borrowed or given so easily? He didn’t know if Jodie was joking or genuinely seeking psychological comfort.

Regardless, he couldn’t agree.

Jodie: “…” Who the hell needs to see a psychologist.

She shook Reuben’s hand and said, “Reuben, just pity me.

“I just want to try and see if what my friend said is true.”

Reuben smiled and said, “Then go find someone else to try.

“I just sat on a plane for several hours, and I’m a bit tired. I want to go back to my room and

rest.”

He gently patted Jodie’s head and said, “You’re a good girl.”

Then he got up and was about to leave the living room.

Jodie felt nauseous inside.

Usually, he spoiled her a lot, but at a critical moment, he wouldn’t even agree to this kind of joke.

She pouted, looking very aggrieved, “Reuben, you don’t love me anymore. I hate you.”

Reuben smiled wryly, “Is that what you call hate? You really have the temperament of a child.

“If you’re truly unhappy, you can invite Master Gordon or a reputable psychologist. I can fulfill your wishes.

“But joking is out of the question.”

Jodie also realized that her Reuben wouldn’t budge.

If she continued to make a fuss, it might make him resentful or suspicious.

After all, besides Steven, Reuben was the most astute and rational in the family.

So, she glared at him and obediently nodded, “Okay, I’ll take another look.”

She asked, “When you’re done resting, come have dinner with me, okay?” If she pestered him for a few more days, she didn’t believe she couldn’t win him over.

For such a small matter, Reuben would naturally comply, “Okay!” So, he got up and left the living room.

At the doorway, he saw Andrew standing there, and he was a little stunned.

“Andrew, why are you standing here?” Andrew looked at his Reuben with a hint of complexity.

We are all brothers, so why is there such a big difference? Titus, Luca, and Aaron seem to know something, so they don’t dare to agree with Jo.

But Reuben shouldn’t know anything, yet he was so tight-lipped.

When it came to matters of luck, he wouldn’t even agree to a joke.

I look like a fool. He snapped back to reality and forced a smile, “I heard you talking, so I came to say hello.”

Reuben noticed the suitcase not far away and asked, “Where are you going?” Andrew replied. “Things haven’t been going well at home recently, so I’m going to stay with Luca for a few days.

Reuben was puzzled, “With Luca? Did he move out?” Andrew nodded, “Yeah, the second. third, and Aarons all moved out.”

He saw Jodie pushing a wheelchair towards them.

In a hurry, he said, “Reuben, I won’t talk to you for now. I’m going to find Luca

For some reason, he felt like avoiding Jo at the moment.

Reuben had a feeling that something had happened while he was away from home

But he also knew that Andrew was gullible, so it was useless to ask too many questions

So he nodded Alright go ahead

He went back to his room as well

When Jodie came out in the wheelchair, both of her brothers had left.

The smile on her face was replaced by gloom.

These brothers, each and every one of them, had changed.

She regretted even more that she should have listened to her older brother and uncle and made Simone stay in the Gray Family.

Then, she could find a way to make everyone in the Gray Family completely disgusted with Simone.

Instead of letting Simone leave and making these people curious.

Is this what they mean by the thing you cannot get gets your curiosity?’ But now it was too late for regrets, and she could only hope to completely suppress Simone in the next variety show.

On the other hand, Reuben went back to his room and took a shower.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was not a coincidence that all three of his younger brothers suddenly moved out.

After coming out, he called Titus.

When Titus saw Reuben’s call, he answered, “Reuben, you’re back?”

Reuben said, “I just got back today. I heard from Andrew that all of you moved out?” He asked again, “Did something happen?”

Titus answered truthfully, “Jodie has been chasing after us all day, asking us for luck. We were afraid, so we hid when we couldn’t handle it.”

Reuben was shocked, “She asked you for luck, too?”

Titus replied, “Yes, she asked all four of us.

“But only Andrew agreed to give it to her. The three of us refused.

“From what you’re saying, she asked you too?”

Reuben said, “Yes, she asked me too, but I didn’t agree.

Titus knew that Reuben was the most astute and wouldn’t easily fall for it like Andrew

“Not agreeing was the right decision Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Go ask the servants at home about how unlucky Andrew has been this past week

“You’ll see how correct your decision was,”

Reuben frowned, “So, because of Andrew, we’ve had a run of bad luck this past week? So, this is not a joke at all?” Titus sneered, “Only Andrew would believe that it’s a joke.”

Reuben asked, “What’s really going on?”

Titus chuckled, “Reuben, you haven’t experienced a beating yet, so there’s no point in to

you.

“You’ll understand when you experience it yourself.”

All four of them have already been beaten, so it wouldn’t be right if Reuben wasn’t beaten ast

well.

After all, they were brothers. They should be deceived and suffer together.

Since Reuben was so astute, he definitely won’t be as miserable as Andrew.

And only by personally being deceived could one truly see Jodie’s true intentions.

Otherwise, no matter how much they said, it was useless, just like the previous Luca and the current Andrew.

Reuben was at a loss for words. “What’s happening? Why all the secrecy?” he asked.

Titus replied, “You’ll find out later.”

After a brief exchange, he ended the call.

Reuben was puzzled, so he approached a servant and inquired about Andrew’s recent

activities.

After listening, he finally understood why his second brother and the others had disappeared.

Whether Jodie was joking or not, this situation was too strange.

Even the unfortunate Andrew had fled, so why should he stay at home? He quickly changed. his clothes, grabbed his unpacked suitcase, and left as well.

Coincidentally, he had a business trip to another city in two days, so he decided to leave carly.

During dinner, Jodie, who had dressed up meticulously, looked charming and lovely

Upon realizing that the restaurant was empty, she received a sudden text message from Reuben apologizing for not being able to join her for dinner due to a business trip.

Unable to control her anger, she swept all the food off the table.

The servants noticed that the young lady’s temper was worsening, so they dared not approach.

Just then, the strict etiquette teacher appeared.

She sternly looked at Jodie and said, “This behavior is unacceptable. You are a young lady; how can you act so rudely?

“Come with me to your room for punishment and to relearn proper table manners.”

Jodie’s body tensed up. She had underestimated the situation, forgetting that this strict teacher was still present at home.

As soon as she heard the word “punishment,” her palms began to ache.

But she couldn’t resist. Otherwise, Salma would send her away.

She could only suppress her resentment and allow the servants to escort her back to her room to endure the punishment… Meanwhile, Titus and his brothers were dumbfounded upon discovering that their Reuben had fled.

They couldn’t help but complain, cursing their luck. How could the Reuben be so cunning? Did all the intelligence and shrewdness in the Gray Family only belong to the eldest and Simone? They truly felt pitiful! In the following days, Simone and Zac filmed their scenes.

On this particular day, they went to the airport together to meet up with Tommy and others, preparing to fly to the border.
