Genius Son Sells his Mom to Dad

Chapter 55 The Secrets of Ling Howard

You are a cheap, dirty, ill-bred woman! You’re a bitch without a mother!

Claire Bennett turns pale with such a vicious remark on the note.

Bryce apparently senses something wrong with her. He hurries up to see it. He is very angry.

Claire Bennett is trembling with rage. The words hurt her. She tears up the note and then turns to step down. Bryce stops her.

Bryce calls in the staff. He takes another draft and hands it to her. He touches Claire Bennett’s head lovingly.

Claire Bennett blushes. She is embarrassed.

Ling Howard looks at them in a bit of surprise.

At last, Claire Bennett hurries off the stage and relaxes.

Ling Howard wants to ask about Bryce. But Claire Bennett seems a little unhappy so he doesn’t ask her.

Claire Bennett seems to have noticed the weirdness of Ling Howard. She thinks he must have seen her with Bryce, especially when Bryce touched her hair. She closes her lips tightly.

They have different minds. From NôvelDrama.Org.

The long opening ceremony is finally over.

Ling Howard stretches himself hyperbolically as he steps out of the hall. His bright eyes look around.

Claire Bennett is puzzled. She grabs Ling Howard and says, “Hey, I feel you’re mysterious today. Are you looking for someone?”

“No!” Ling Howard squints and waves.

“There must be. Speak up!” Claire Bennett stares at the flash in Ling Howard’s eyes and laughs.

“Actually, sister-in-law, I’m looking for Qi Elizabeth.”

Ling Howard is suddenly a little angry. “She’s gone too far. I must find her and teach her a lesson.”

Claire Bennett glances at him and says, “where did you go? I was helpless on the stage. If it weren’t for...”

Ling Howard goes on to say, “If it weren’t for the beautiful man who appeared, you would be embarrassed, right?”

Claire Bennett does not answer.

Then Ling Howard suddenly comes up and says mysteriously, “But who’s that man?”

Claire Bennett says, “Don’t get me wrong. Bryce and I are just...”

Ling Howard doesn’t seem to care about Claire Bennett’s relationship with Bryce at all.

He says to himself, “he is called Bryce. He is Bryce Family’s heir. I didn’t expect him to be very handsome.” Ling Howard smiles unconsciously.

Claire Bennett feels his smile is a little weird. But she doesn’t think much about it.

However, what she doesn’t expect is that Ling Howard speaks directly, “Bryce is pretty good. I like him very much. I’m attracted to him!”

“Ah?” Claire Bennett is shocked. “What do you mean? You can’t...”

“Isn’t it obvious what I mean?” Ling Howard looks at Claire Bennett in amazement, scratches his head, smiles and says, “I’m not impressed with people as beautiful as you. That’s not because you are my sister-in-law. Hey, you know!”

Claire Bennett looks at him and says, “do you like men?”

“Yes!” Ling Howard nods and whispers, “Sister-in-law, you should keep your voice down. Nobody knows about it except you!”

Claire Bennett is horrified. She looks at Ling Howard, pats him on the shoulder and says, “Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone about it.”

“Thank you, sister-in-law!”

Ling Howard is about to ask more about Bryce when he comes across a tall woman with a pair of willow eyebrows locked and her eyes cold.

Her name is Siri. She is a teacher in this Conservatory of Music.

“Are you Miss Bennett, please?” Siri smiles.

Claire Bennett nods and responds with a smile. “I am. Who are you, please?”

Siri smiles and politely responds, “I am the chief teacher of this college. Now there are some things to deal with you. If you can, follow me.”

Claire Bennett is a little strange because she has just arrived here. She fears that Qi Elizabeth will frame her so she looks at Ling Howard.

Ling Howard signals Claire Bennett not to worry. Claire Bennett nods and agrees.

They go to the office. Siri opens the door and leaves. Claire Bennett sees Bryce pacing back and forth in the office.

It turns out that Bryce has Siri bring Claire Bennett.

Bryce turns to see Claire Bennett. Instead of worrying, he smiles at her. He hurries to Claire Bennett, takes Claire Bennett’s hand from Ling Howard and gently supports her on the sofa.

Ling Howard is ignored. He is a little jealous.

Claire Bennett says, “Bryce, I...”

“How do you feel?” Bryce asks with concern.

Claire Bennett blushes and reaches out to stop him from approaching. “Bryce, that’s not good.”

Bryce looks at Ling Howard who is staring at him and feels a little embarrassed. But he coughs twice and says, “I’m worried about you. You look so bad!”

Claire Bennett shakes her head and frowns, “I’m all right. I am now Leo Howard’s wife. I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for you to do so.”

Bryce glances at Ling Howard with a slight chill in his eyes.

To his surprise, Ling Howard has no Leo Howard’s gloom or tyranny. He gives him a warm sunny smile.

“Hello, I’m Ling Howard, Leo Howard’s brother.” Ling Howard laughs.

Bryce nods to him, too. Instead of doubting him, he greets him with a faint smile.

Bryce thinks there is something wrong with the atmosphere. He shakes his head and finally turns to Claire Bennett and says, “Claire, I just think of you as my sister now. I said I wanted to protect you. You

are someone else’s wife and my sister. I am sincere!”

Claire Bennett sighs helplessly and does not answer. She looks around at Ling Howard and she finds that his smile is dull and his eyes are slightly wooden.

Claire Bennett stops and laughs. She thinks Ling Howard is jealous. She is a little speechless.
