Love Is Fair by Kerri novel Chapter 232

Chapter 232 Karl Finally Reappears

There were people calling her aunt, but no one had ever called her mother. Hailey looked up at Jeremy and snapped, “Do you want me to spank you?”

Jeremy wimped out and repeatedly shook his head. Pulling a straight face, Hailey continued to apply the medicine to his wound and sulked, “I’ve granted you a privilege to call me sister. Don’t push your luck.”

Jeremy meekly hummed and then asked, “Is the guy you brought here today your brother too?”

“Yeah,” after the job was done, Hailey cleaned her hands, put the cap back on, and said blandly, “my godbrother.”

Jeremy nodded and muttered, “You have so many brothers.”

“Don’t you have one too?” Hailey chuckled, thinking that he was admiring her, “Not everyone is as lucky as I am. Feel gratified that you have one.”

“Fair point.” Jeremy raised his head and smiled. After the ointment was applied, he stood up and said seriously, “My brother’s leg heals fast, thanks to you. When he comes back from the filming, we’ll treat you to dinner to express our gratitude.” “You’re welcome.” Hailey smiled nonchalantly, “Okay.”

Back in the box, the three men had eaten and drunk to their hearts” content. The subject changed from Catherine to Hailey, and they looked at her in disappointment.

“Guys, you don’t know my mood when I went to pick her up in North City a few months ago. She ended her three-year marriage and left Moore Mansion penniless. It somehow delighted me,” Brook said.

“You should be.” Jared looked at her with drunken eyes, “Hailey is finally out of the misery. She no longer has to babysit that guy, which is worth celebrating Cheers!”

Holding the wine glass, he tottered to Hailey’s side, threw his arm around her shoulder, and handed her the wine. Hailey studied the wine glass and asked, “Is this used by you? 12

Jared glared at her. “What, you don’t like it?”

“I don’t.” Hailey nodded but tossed it off. The wine was ordered at the wine fair in Berny. Brewed at Chateau Cissac, it was not strong but tasted mellow.

After finishing off the wine, Hailey went back to her seat and said indifferently, “That was a long time ago and not worth mentioning again. Everyone has a dark past. Do you want me to dig up the dirt about you guys?”

To that, the three men just snorted, “There’s no dirt about us.”

Hailey sipped her soup and ran her eyes over them. “Ryan, you were about ten when my mother saved you. I hadn’t been born, but my dad told me that you were chased by a wolf in the mountains. Running and crying, you then found that it was just a deer.”

“Jared, when you were a child, you learned boxing and often went out to fight other boys. You bragged that you had never lost to anyone. Then a girl beat you and made you cry. You’ve been searching for years but still haven’t found her, right?”

“Brook, you cried a lot when you were a child, and I can’t even count it. I do remember that Mom dressed you up as a girl on Children’s Day. Your hair was braided, and you were wearing my dress to perform on stage. You were such a girl.”

“Did 1?” Brook pretended that he couldn’t remember it.

Ryan and Jared looked over, nodding. “You did.”
