Suny knew that Robert had the intention to stand up for her, anyway, she used to suffer a lot from those side relatives of Austin in the Johnson family, now the situation had turned, she didn't feel any pity for him.
Well, that was how she held grudge.
When Robert finished, he put down his chopsticks and had someone come in to add two sets of cutlery and two more dishes before looking up at Austin: "That Miss Bates just now said that Mr. Johnson is courting Suny?"
"Yes."
Austin met Robert's gaze with a calm expression on his face, and replied without being condescending.
Robert took a sip of tea, "If I remember correctly, Mr. Johnson and Suny were divorced only a year ago, right?"
"You are right."
Robert looked down at his teaglass, his eyebrows lowered, making it impossible to see his expression: "I don't understand, since it's only been a year or so since the divorce, why are you suddenly pursuing Suny? If you like Suny, why did you divorce Suny in the first place?"
Robert looked at him, and inside those dark eyes was the usual intimidation and oppression of a superior person.
But Austin was not afraid at all: "I used to be young and frivolous and did not know how to cherish her. After the divorce, I found out more and more how good Suny was and came to my senses, so now I am pursuing Suny again."
Robert laughed, "Whether you have come to your senses or not, what does this have to do with Suny? If you didn't know how to cherish her before, why should Suny forgive you now that you know you were wrong?"
Robert's words were loud and clear, and as soon as the words left his mouth, the glass of tea he was holding slammed down hard on the table.
Elijah, who was eating his meal and watching the fun, was stunned for a moment and choked on a mouthful of rice inside his throat, his face turning pale.
Suny couldn't help but let out a laugh and raised her hand to pour him a glass of water.
As Elijah interrupted, the atmosphere suddenly became less serious.
Robert frowned and looked at Austin, "Mr. Johnson, I think you should understand what I mean."
"I understand, but I won't give up pursuing Suny unless she marries and has children with someone else one day."
No, not even marriage.
After all, there were divorces and she had to have children.
Suny was drinking her soup when she heard him say this and choked slightly, unable to help but cough.
She knew that Austin was becoming more and more shameless now, but she just didn't expect him to be so shameless as to say such things in front of Robert.
Robert snorted coldly, "That's your business, Mr. Johnson."
When he finished, he inclined his head to glance at Suny and his face eased up a lot: "Are you full?"
"Yes, brother."
They had been eating for a while before Winnie came in.
But Suny looked at the rice that was still in Robert's bowl and wanted to say something, but Robert was already getting up, "Let's go then."
Suny glanced at Austin, knowing that Robert was not willing to let Austin spend time with her.
She drew a tissue and wiped the corner of her mouth, before leaving, she hooked her lips at Austin, then lifted her legs and followed Robert out of the box.
"Brother."
Hearing her call for herself, Robert slowed his pace, "Not happy?"
"No, I know you are doing this for my own good."
Robert looked at her for a moment, "It's good that you know, it's not just me who knows about your previous affairs, grandpa knows it too. Grandpa and brother both know quite a few young talents, none of them are worse than Austin, you might not think how good Austin is once you get to know others."
Suny was embarrassed, "Brother, I've liked him for years."
Hearing this from her, Robert was stunned for a moment, and in a trance, it seemed that someone had told him the same thing.
Not knowing what was on Robert's mind, Suny sensed that he didn't look good, pursed her lips and changed the subject: "Brother, you haven’t eaten enough, right? I know a porridge shop that's delicious, how about we go over and have some more porridge?"
Robert retrieved his thoughts and looked at Suny and nodded, "Okay."
Suny paid the bill and then led Robert out of Bishounen.
He took out his mobile phone and called Ivan.
After hanging up the phone, Robert suddenly thought of something: "I've given a business card to you, it's a friend of me, Chee Murray he is a teacher at J City University, you should get to know him."
Suny did not expect that Robert would really just introduce a man to her. She took out her phone and looked at the business card inside her phone, embarrassed.
If she had known that, she might as well have left earlier.
"I've asked him to friend you."
Suny was still thinking of a reason to refuse, but her phone already received a friend request, and Robert's words just came to her ears again.
Suny glanced at Robert: "Brother, would this not be a good idea?"
"You don't need to have a psychological burden, Chee knows nothing about relationships, he's been single for so many years, if you don’t like him, you can help him chase girls."
Robert's reason was so good that Suny could not even think of any excuse to refuse.
"Okay, brother."
Suny had to pass the friend request, and the other party quickly entered his self-introduction: "Hello, my name is Chee Murray.
Suny also replied with a similar sentence, but the other party did not send a message over next, coincidentally at this time Ivan came, Suny sighed with relief, "Brother, Ivan is here."
"Well, you go back and send me a message when you get home."
"Okay, brother."
Suny picked up her bag, but Robert didn't leave yet and stood there looking at her, "I'll watch you get in."
"Okay."
Suny crossed the road and before she got into the car, she looked back and Robert was still watching her.
All she could feel was heat in her eyes, remembering that years ago when she went to school, her mum and dad had stood across the road watching her get into a taxi too.
