Chapter 217
Alena Wright didn't think about other places. He just followed his words and said, "I participated in a design competition so that I might be a little busy next time."
"Really? Then I would like to congratulate you." Yves Kelly shrugged noncommittal, playing with the edge of the cup and turning in circles on the pure wooden desk, "Last time at the bar, I was not in a good mood when I saw Waylon Gray. Later, after seeing you, he took you away with a sullen expression. Has something happened to you recently?"
The topic changed so quickly that Alena Wright didn't react for a while. There was nowhere to escape the loneliness in her eyes.
At one glance, Yves Kelly smiled and pointedly said, "This guy has a bad temper. It seems that you should have suffered too much."
"It's okay, and he is that temperament." The so-called family horror should not be exaggerated. Alena Wright naturally has to cover up for Waylon Gray in front of others. Although this person is his good friend, she does not want to say too much.
However, Yves Kelly today seems to be particularly interested in this matter, and he said: "Alena Wright, haven't you thought about leaving him? If two people are not happy together, is there still a need to be together?"
Alena Wright was questioned for a moment and looked at Yves Kelly with a smile on her face.
She didn't understand why he suddenly said such a thing. It didn't seem to be what a good friend should say.
Thinking of this, Alena Wright could no longer maintain her politeness. Her face sank slightly, "Mr. Yves Kelly, although there are some minor conflicts between Waylon Gray and me, it is not as serious as you said."
Realizing that she was angry, Yves Kelly also calmed down, "Okay, I just care about you, and I don't mean anything else."
The person in front of him returned to her usual calm and gracefulness. Alena Wright suddenly felt that she seemed to have said too much. She pursed her lips and became calm when she spoke, "I know you are caring about me, but after so many years of entanglement, it is not possible to say clearly in a few words. Although we have some contradictions now, I believe that Waylon Gray's feelings for me."
Hearing what she said so sure, Yves Kelly laughed suddenly, with a cold smile, "Are you so sure?"
Alena Wright frowned and looked at the opposite man suspiciously.
In her impression, Yves Kelly is not a person who likes to say right and wrong so much, but today he deliberately mentions these twice. Is it another purpose?
Thinking of this, Alena Wright stopped going around with him and said straightforwardly, "Do you have anything to say? Why do I think you are weird today?"
Yves Kelly laughed and shook his head, "I really can't hide anything from you."
This is undoubtedly an admission. Alena Wright felt a little nervous inexplicably. She implored a little: "What are you trying to say?"
Yves Kelly twitched the corners of her mouth with satisfaction to meet her eyes that were starting to become flustered.
The provocation of a few words will shake only those with low confidence. In this way, the relationship between Alena Wright and Waylon Gray is fragile.
He changed a comfortable position and looked at Alena Wright indifferently. The voice was still lovely, but it made people feel cold, "Is Waylon Gray on a business trip recently?"
"Yes." Alena Wright nodded. Her uneasiness grew more robust, "What do you ask this for?"
Yves Kelly glanced at her for unknown reasons, angrily and funny, "Alena Wright, you are innocent."
"What do you mean by this?" Alena Wright couldn't bear his being like this. Her eyes became sharp, "What are you trying to tell me? It's better to say it all at once."
Seeing that she had begun to become impatient, Yves Kelly's face also became severe, and he said word by word, "He didn't have a business trip at all."
What?
Waylon Gray didn't travel on business?
This news is undoubtedly a thunderbolt. Alena Wright's heart is constantly changing. Countless thoughts flashed. In the end, there is only one sentence left. Then why did he lie to me?
Alena Wright asked her last fluke, "Why do you say that he didn't travel on business?"
It seems that she had expected this question a long time ago. Yves Kelly said unhurriedly, "Because Bill Clay is not on a business trip. Bill Clay is Waylon Gray's assistant and his most trusted subordinate. If he is really on a business trip, why is Bill Clay still her? Didn't he go with him?"
Alena Wright hadn't thought about this issue. She was only entangled yesterday whether to call Waylon Gray. She didn't know about it elsewhere, nor did she expect to contact Bill Clay to confirm it.
Yves Kelly said again, "The words have reached this point. If you still don't believe it, you might as well ask Bill Clay in person."
From beginning to end, Yves Kelly's tone was highly determined.
Alena Wright knew very well that if what he said was false. Then, Yves Kelly would not have such self-confidence at all.
In other words, Waylon Gray did not travel on business.
In an instant, Alena Wright's face became a little ugly. Didn't she know what was going on? Why did Waylon Gray deceive himself again?
In a panic, Alena Wright met Yves Kelly's smirking eyes. She was shocked and immediately asked, "Even if this is the case, you and Waylon Gray are still best friends. Logically speaking, you should help him hide things. Why would you suddenly take the initiative to tell me this?"
This is what Alena Wright always finds strange. Yves Kelly seems to have come prepared, not just to see her as he said.
Hearing this, Yves Kelly stared at her quietly for a moment, with sincere and focused eyes, "Alena Wright, that's right. Waylon Gray and I are indeed perfect friends. But I always think that you are very similar to my sister, and I have always treated you as my younger sister. That's why I risked defying my brother's purpose to tell you the truth."
Yves Kelly couldn't help but stretched out his hand and patted Alena Wright on the shoulder. The deep meaning in his eyes was replaced by sympathy, "I know that it is not easy for you to walk this way. I also think you can avoid some harm as much as possible. Do you understand me?"
For a moment, Alena Wright thought of the little by little since she met him. Yves Kelly had always played the role of a big brother and even stood up and comforted her when she was the loneliest time.
Alena Wright's heart softened. The erect spikes disappeared instantly, and her voice was lowered, "I know you are also good for me."
