Better Life Without You. novel Chapter 217

Carol Wright had moved away, so William Walton brought Laura returned to the villa.

If they continued to live in there, she had to cook everyday. He didn't want her do it.

Thursday afternoon was the final match of the basketball game.

Perhaps it was because of the motivation, Benjamin Walton's fighting prowess was especially high.

In the end, he brought along the school basketball team and won this year's championship.

She looked at Benjamin holding the trophy with a face brimming with youth, a motherly warm smile appeared on Laura's face.

On the way back to school, Benjamin Walton sat by her side with a complacent look on his face: "How about it, Laura? Am I good?"

She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Sit well, stay away from me."

"Sigh, Laura, what's wrong with you? Are you planning to not fulfill your promise?"

"What promise?"

"Sure enough, I know that you've probably forgotten. Didn't you promise me that as long as I win this MVP competition you will help me do something? Why? You haven't even put the trophy in the school yet, and you're going to go back on your word?"

"Hey," she laughed in a speechless manner, "Of course, I haven't forgotten. We can talk about this matter after we get home. There are so many people here, so keep my distance for now."

Benjamin Walton could not help but laugh: "Laura, did you hear the rumors too?"

She looked at him and asked, "You heard it too?"

"Yeah."

"Then you still dare to come to my side?"

"If we keep our distance because they are talking behind our backs, that will prove our guilt. It's just that once my identity as the little brother of Walton family is exposed. I feel that it's too troublesome. In order to protect you, William harmed me. "

Laura couldn't help but laugh. However, William's words from before made quite a bit of sense. Why did she need to be afraid of others gossiping? It's not as if she was really be with him.

"Stop complaining, I'll accept your kindness. Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

"I want to open a bar," he said, looking at her with determination.

"Bar?" She was speechless, she said, "If you told William about this, would he not agree?"

"That's right. He really does not agree with me, because the bar I am going to open is not for profit. It is purely for playing."

"Don't you have a lot of money yourself? Just do it by yourself. Why should you ask him?"

"If I don't earn money, my brother will find me embarrassing. After all, no one from Walton family is a coward in the business."

"Why do you insist on opening a bar?"

"I always have my purpose."

"Are you serious?"

"I really can't be more serious now."

Thinking about it, she nodded. "Alright, I'll tell William about this, but whether he agrees or not is not something that I can decide."

"You can definitely take down William. If even you can't do it, then I don't think anyone can help me with this matter."

William Walton was clearly easy to talk to. As a little brother, why did he have to make William Walton sound so unreasonable?

The school bus returned to school, and because basketball team had brought glory to the school, the principal personally brought people to welcome them.

At night, the school set up a feast for the basketball team, to celebrate the victory of this group of officials.

"Come, come, let's raise our glasses and toast to this couple."

While the group of people were coaxing him, no one noticed that William Walton had walked in.

Hearing that so many people were trying to make fun of his brother and the one whom he loved, William Walton's face became even colder.

The Principal's assistant invited William Walton into the private room. Other than Peter Burke, Emily Burke was there as well.

Seeing him arrive, Emily Burke stood up and said respectfully: "Senior, long time no see."

William Walton sat down with a cold face and looked at Peter Burke: "Dean Burke invited someone to dinner, why did you bring your own daughter along?"

Seeing that William Walton wasn't really happy, Peter Burke hurriedly explained, "She has always viewed you as her idol. Knowing that I want to treat you to a meal, she insisted on coming along with me, saying that it would be fine even if she could see her idol from afar."

William Walton said calmly: "Miss Burke shouldn't be young anymore."

Emily Burke quickly said: "Senior, I am 22 years old."

"Mm, that is indeed not young. At this age, you should know something, but you seem to be immature."

Emily Burke hurriedly said: "Senior, I'm not like this normally, it's really because I want to meet you that I'm begging my father to bring me here."

"Do you want to see me, or do you want me?" William Walton went straight to the point.

Emily Burke's face slightly blushed, and Peter Burke, who was at the side, did not know whether he should help or not.

After all, he couldn't really determine William Walton's feelings right now.

Seeing that she did not say anything, William Walton directly said: "If it's the former, then I think that at Miss Burke's age, you should have tidied up your mood for chasing after your idol. Sometimes, your actions would bring inconvenience to others. I'm not a public figure. If you want to see me, don't you have to ask my permission first? If it's the latter, then I can only tell Miss Burke that you are not my type. I already have someone in my heart. "

This bit of anger in William Walton's heart had all been vented, and his mood became a lot calmer. He said: "If Miss Burke doesn't have anything else, then you can leave first. Dean Burke, invite Teacher Green in."
