Chapter 328 The Answer Is Obvious
Chapter 328 The answer is obvious
At this time, on the other side, Martha, Rupert and Jimmy were talking and laughing while walking
towards the hotel.
They were talking about happy things along the way, trying to ease the atmosphere, but the
atmosphere was still a bit strange.
At this time, Rupert's cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Jimmy immediately let go of Rupert's hand and called out smartly, "Uncle Rupert, your phone is
ringing."
Rupert answered and took out his phone.
At the sight of the caller ID on the screen, His eyes dimmed, and his face was filled with a look of
confusion.
As soon as the phone was connected, the other party said a lot.
Rupert heard them, a shocked look appeared on his face, but in the next second, he returned to his
normal self and warmly rejected the other party.
Martha was standing next to Rupert at this time, and when she heard him answer, she guessed that the
call was from abroad.
When she heard Rupert's refusal, a complicated look appeared in her eyes.
She could guess that the person who called was the head of a scientific research project abroad, the
project that Rupert had previously been very interested in attending.
Later, because of her and the child, Rupert gave up that opportunity.
But now, why would he turn down this opportunity again?
Soon, Rupert hung up the phone, and without waiting for him to explain, Martha's voice rang out.
"Why did you turn them down?"
"It takes three years to do that research project."
Rupert smiled as he answered Martha's words.
Martha saw the smile at the corner of his mouth, her eyebrows knitted slightly, and the doubt in her
eyes increased.
"Isn't that what you've always wanted to do?"
Rupert suddenly stepped forward and gently took Martha's hand, smiling as he told her the reason.
"No, what I want to do most is to keep you and the child safe and sound."
Always, being by her side was what he wanted to do most.
When Martha heard this, her mind unconsciously recalled those four years of life abroad in the past,
and all the care Rupert had given to them.
If it weren't for Rupert, she and Jimmy would have had a much harder time.
It was because of her that he gave up the best opportunity, and now, how could she let him give up
again?
She looked at Rupert with eyes full of guilt and said in a warm voice, "What you've done for me and my
child over the years has been more than I can repay. Now you have to give up your future for Jimmy
and me, how do you want me to face you in the future?"
"This is my own decision, you should not feel a burden."
Rupert stiffened slightly and replied somewhat eagerly.
Martha smiled bitterly and looked at Rupert in front of her somewhat powerlessly.
"But I don't want to see that you give up your goals and pursuits for us."
"No, it's my own choice, don't think too much about it."
His eyes were filled with panic, and he looked at Martha somewhat helplessly, explaining anxiously.
The latter lowered her eyes, and the look in her eyes was complicated.
She shook her head slightly, and a voice full of guilt came out from her red lips.
"If you do this, it will only make me feel like we are a burden to you."novelbin
Rupert was stunned, and opened his mouth to retort, when Martha's words preceded him and rang out
again.
"Rupert, I really don't want to owe you any more. Your kindness is not for our good, but rather it will
weigh me down."
He stiffened and his face turned white.
He really didn't think that his kindness to Martha would become a burden to her.
And at this moment, Jimmy, who was sandwiched between them, could clearly feel his mommy's
embarrassment, and Uncle Rupert's sense of loss.
He took a step forward, reached out and took Mommy's hand, took the initiative to pat his chest, tilted
his face and said boldly, "Uncle Rupert, you should go and do what you like. I've grown up, I will protect
Mommy in the future."
He doesn't want to make things difficult for his mommy, and he doesn't want to make his mommy sad.
So if Mommy doesn't want to, he doesn't want his mommy to force herself.
Jimmy thought of this and looked at Rupert with more and more determined eyes.
Rupert heard this, and helplessly smiled.
He stared at Martha, yet she lowered her eyes without looking at him.
He pursed his lips and didn't say anything, only gently touched the broken hair on Jimmy's head and
sent them both back to their rooms.
After Martha returned to her room, she sat down on the sofa with a tired face and stared out the floor-
to-ceiling window in a daze.
Rupert had given so much for her, she should say yes to Rupert and stay with him.
Then the two of them can take Jimmy and other family members abroad together.
In the future, she should accompany Rupert to accomplish what Rupert wanted to do.
But right now, she couldn't leave here at all.
The Doyle Group had just gotten back on track, and she couldn't just leave the Doyle Group alone.
In addition, the person behind Libby had not yet found out, and the real culprit caused her mother's
death had been unknown.
She could not just leave.
But now there was another opportunity in front of Rupert, and she could no longer delay Rupert.
Martha's irritation was even greater, she felt like she had come to a dead end, she had no idea, no way
out.
At this time, a pleasant ringing tone suddenly rang in the room.
Martha frowned and took the phone and saw the caller ID on the phone - Rhys.
She picked up the phone in disbelief, and her voice was distant and indifferent.
"Mr. Williams, why are you calling me so late?"
No sooner had her voice fallen than Rhys' magnetic voice rang.
"I watched the engagement farce, the leading man should come to you now, right?"
Martha's eyes darkened and the irritation in her heart increased, "I'm not in the mood to talk about that
right now."
Rhys on the other side of the phone raised his eyebrows and asked jokingly, "Then what are you
bothered about? Let me guess."
Saying that, without waiting for Martha to say anything, Rhys curled his lips and revealed what Martha
was bothered about.
"You should be bothered about Rupert. I wonder if my guess is right."
Martha's hand tightened as she leaned on the sofa in annoyance and spoke her mind with a bitter
smile.
"Well, the scientific research project that Rupert had been interested in before has once again offered
an olive branch to him. I can't let go of the domestic affairs right now, so I don't know what I should
choose."
Just as she finished her words, Rhys' rare serious questioning voice came over the phone.
"Do you have other feelings for Rupert besides gratitude and guilt? Like love?"
When Martha heard this, her body stiffened and she pursed her lips without speaking.
Rhys did not hear the other party speak for a long time, the corners of his mouth curling into a light
smile, his wicked voice sounding in the room.
"So it seems the answer is obvious."
