Robert didn't answer Brandon. Instead, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and waved them at him. " Do you smoke?" " No," Brandon waved his hand and said, "I can't stand the smell." " Oh, okay." Robert nodded. He didn't feel like smoking, but somehow he had a cigarette in his mouth and lit it up. Then he took a puff and blew it at Brandon.

Brandon frowned and said, " You don't seem to be a gentleman, Mr. Zabinski." "I'm not a gentleman." Robert leaned directly on the chair and stretched out his feet to rest them on the table."I'm also a straightforward person, but I didn't receive higher education abroad like you. People from nowhere like me are narrow- minded and bad- tempered. In a word, we make friends with others if we get along, but if we don't, we just fight. I can handle the medical fee. You should have investigated me before you came here, right? With the help of the legal team behind me, I won't be put into jail for beating you up. Do you wanna have a try, Mr. Jenkins?" Brandon's face darkened. " It seems that I'm not welcomed by Mr. Zabinski. Guess I don't need to say anything more." " Yes, I don't want to hear it." Robert picked his ears." Sorry, Mr. Jenkins, I want to continue the meal with my girlfriend. If you have anything else to say, please wait outside the door. If I finished the meal in a good mood, maybe I can let my girlfriend talk to you for a while. Do you hear me?" Brandon snorted, ignoring Robert's words. Instead, he looked at Marilyn and asked, " Is this how your boyfriend treats your classmates, Marilyn?" " Did you understand what I said just now, Mr. Jenkins?" Robert looked at Brandon with a puzzled face."I said if you had something else to say, just wait outside the door. What? Do you need me to explain it to you word by word?" As Robert spoke, he withdrew his legs and stood up at the same time. Then he took off his coat, ready to fight.

Brandon shrank his neck and said to Robert," People like you don't deserve Marilyn!" After saying that, Brandon ran out of the private room in disgrace. He didn't dare to stay longer.

10 After Brandon left, Robert closed the door and locked it. Then he breathed a sigh of relief." Finally, it gets quiet." Marilyn sat at the table, resting her chin on her hands, and stared at Robert." You' re so mean." " Mean?" Robert stepped forward, reached out, and grabbed Marilyn's arm while leaning his head forward.

Being startled by Robert's action, Marilyn stepped back subconsciously, but as soon as she moved, she was held by a big hand around her back. She had nowhere to hide.

Robert's face was so close to Marilyn's. The distance between them was less than 2 inches, and they could feel each other's breathing.

" What... What are you doing, Robert?" Marilyn smelled the unique fragrance on him and her ears got a little hot.

"I'm jealous." Robert stared at Marilyn." Yes, I get that everyone has a past. And since it was over, we should let it go and move on. But I just couldn't help feeling mad after I heard those things of yours." Marilyn pouted and said, " But nothing happened between me and him. I just got along +5 with him at that time, but I didn't even hold his hands. Don't be so mean."
