Chapter 85 I Am Not Her Son

"We can't get out to sea now. We have to wait until the rain stops."

"Okay, got it."

"The hotel is very well equipped and convenient to stay in, I have booked a table, Norton is a little hungry, you can come and eat."

For some reason, Bane sensed that Bert's voice today was soft, not cold.

Then Sophie shook her mother's hand and said, "Mom, I want to eat."

After playing outside for so long, the food I ate at noon had already been digested, how could I not be hungry?

Bane didn't refuse. "Sorry to bother you," he replied.

Bert nodded, and led them off to the dining-room.

The dining room was rather deserted at this hour, and the table Bert had booked was by the window, just in time to see the beautiful view.

Norton remained silent. Bane looked at Norton a few times, hesitated, but said nothing.

This time the meal was the quietest. No one spoke at all, and Bert and Norton were even more picky about what they ate.

Norton takes a bite, and the piece of beef in front of him has already been shredded by him.

Suddenly Sophie looked at Bert with a wariness on her face. "Handsome Uncle," she said, "is the younger brother the child of that woman?"

Bane stopped her. "Sophie, don't say that!"

Norton can't resist the temptation to say, "No, I'm not her son! No!"

The words made Norton's eyes red and his voice a little teary.

Pushing her favorite fruit salad in front of Norton, Sophie smiled sweetly. "I'll give you all the treats, brother," she said. "Don't be sad."

Norton takes a look at the salad in front of him, then his eyes fall on his sister's sweet smile, and he feels less sad.

Bane lowered his knife and fork when he saw this and whispered, "Bert Ron, you..." After some hesitation, Bane said, "Be careful of Betsy Reed."

Bane really knows Rosa and Betsy well, and knows that they are very greedy people. They did not succeed this time, and will certainly find another opportunity to do it.

Bert gasped, and then replied, "Good."

When Bert did not respond, Bane said nothing. It was a family affair which was not fit for her to interfere with as a stranger, and which might be suspected of evil motives.

When the meal was over, no one was comfortable, and everyone went to their rooms. It was still raining cats and dogs outside, and Bane had to stay there.

Sophie, probably tired, came home from dinner and fell asleep. Anne sat beside her, doting.

Bane, who was getting restless, said to Anne, "Sister Nora, I'm going outside for a breath of air."

Anne seemed to know why she was upset. "Go ahead," she replied. "I'll leave Sophie to her care, and I just wanted to get some rest, so we slept together."

Bane said "Mmm" and left the room.

Standing in the doorway, hesitating where to go, she suddenly remembered that there was a bar on the upper floor of the hotel and headed straight for it.

The music in the bar is very soothing and the lighting is dim. Walking into the bar gives people a quiet feeling. There is a piano in the middle of the bar, but no one plays it.

Bane walked over to the piano, and the outstretched hand stopped abruptly. She smiled, took it back, and was ready to leave.

"Will miss play it?"

He heard the voice of a strange man.

Bane turned around to see a young man in a suit and tie standing behind him. He was wearing glasses, and his whole body smelled of art.

Bane smiled and shook his head. "No," he said, "it's a beautiful piano. Come and have a look."

The piano is really nice, it's a walnut color, it gives people a sense of simplicity and elegance, and that's why Bane came here.

I don't know why. I just want to touch the piano.

The man's eyes also fell on the piano, his eyes are very tender, said: "My mother went to heaven, she left this."

Bane paused, his face quickly apologetic. "I'm sorry, I don't know."

The man smiled and shook his head, saying, "It doesn't matter. This piano has been here for a long time. My mother loved the sea most.

Until now, Bain had not noticed that the piano had been surrounded by a protective layer, and that the piano was not to be played, but to be seen.

Bane realized that he had just behaved impolitely.

Bane quickly stepped back, his face more apologetic. "I'm sorry, I didn't notice it was just for viewing."

The man smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It has been here for a long time. Now, when I meet people who appreciate it, I miss it.

A wave of grief appeared in the man's eyes, as if surrounded by memories.

Bane hesitated, but repressed the thought and said nothing.

The man pulled his mind back, laughed and cried, and said, "I'm sorry, I was distracted."

"Shuk Iran, why are you here? I've been looking for you."

Behind them came a sweet female voice.

Bane turned to look at the sound source and realized that he had seen the woman somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.

But Ina Becky recognized Bane straight away. After all, she was impressed by Bane, couldn't she not be impressed by the man who had beaten her with a song out of tune?

After Shuke saw the bearer, a trace of disgust in his eyes, did not let Ina found, said: "you come to see me what to do?"

Ina suppressed her hostility toward Bane and smiled sweetly. "Auntie asked me to come over. What are you doing here?"

"Nothing."

Shook did not show his distaste, and was polite to Ina, but distant.

Seeing that the two men knew each other, Bane decided that he shouldn't be in the way, so he started to leave. "Well, I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to leave.

Shook wanted to keep Bane, because he didn't want to be with Ina at all. How could he not know what that woman was thinking? Just to get him to marry Ina.

Not only did the woman want to be his stepmother, but she was going to let him marry her daughter. They could do such a shameless thing.
