Chapter 1523
Brenda said doubtfully, "Monique, it's best if you don't have anything going on with that man. If you have a relationship with him, your father and I won't be able to help you."
"You don't have to worry about me. I'll handle it myself. Let's just settle the paperwork and get Grandpa admitted first."
Brenda sighed and said, "Your grandfather has always condemned me for not giving him a son all these years. I know he's always pulling a long face at you and your sisters. But, when it comes to protecting you all, he has never failed."
Speaking of her elderly grandfather, Owen, Monique still remembered how kind he was. She still remembered when she was ten years old, she was bullied by a boy next door. She bit her tongue and kept quiet but Owen saw everything. He brought her over to the boy's house and made it clear that any girl from the Zellweger family was not to be messed with.
Owen was unhappy to have three granddaughters but he never allowed anyone to bully them. He wouldn't even allow people to talk bad about them behind their backs. All in all, Owen was a good person, he was just bound by old-fashioned thinking of wanting a son. As long as he passed that hurdle in his heart, he was actually a very good grandfather.
Although Owen favored men more than women, he had still taught Monique a lot about life. In Monique's heart, she still respected her grandfather greatly. She hoped that his health would improve and that he would be able to live to a ripe old age.
"Hmph! She actually rejected my flowers!" However, Levi was not angry. Instead, he chuckled heartily. "My dear girl, you should know that men have a strong desire to conquer. The more you refuse me, the more interested I will be in you. I won't rest until you are mine."
"Young Master Brown, are you okay?" Tom himself felt that the delivery went horribly and he was mentally prepared to be reprimanded by Levi. Who knew that Levi would not be angry at all; it was all very puzzling.
"You can go and do whatever you want now. I will settle the rest on my own." Normally, all Levi had to do to get a girl was to give her flowers and ask her out. But with Monique's level of beauty, it was only natural that she required more effort from him. Now that he thought about it, despite all the women he had dated, he had never really needed to pull out the big guns before.
Big guns?
What kind of big guns did he need?
In the past, Levi thought that he could come up with ways to chase girls easily. But, now that he needed a good plan, his mind came up blank. He wanted to call Julien to ask but at the thought of Julien clinging onto only one woman, he decided against it.
He couldn't call Julien but he could call his other friends. When they heard that he was trying to get a girlfriend, they all laughed. "Young Master Brown, you are kidding us, aren't you? With your wealth and appearance, so many women are lining up to get a chance with you. There's no need for you to take the initiative to chase after any woman."
"You're talking about ordinary women. The lady I am trying to pursue now is special."
Dion, Levi's friend, replied, "We're very curious as to what kind of woman can make you want to put in so much effort. What's so special about her?"
Levi thought for a moment and told him, "She's very good-looking."
"Pfft. In the end, it's all just appearance. There are so many good- looking women in the world, you can't have all of them."
"I only want this one."
At the thought of Monique's lovely appearance, Levi felt his mouth water; he just wanted to eat her up.
"Does the girl know who you are?" Dion asked.
"I used my connections to help her family member get admitted into the hospital. Isn't my background as a young master already obvious?"
"It's not that big a deal to help her with that. Anyone who knows a doctor in the hospital would be able to do the same."
Levi suddenly felt that something was wrong. "Do you guys think my only merit is my identity? Do I have nothing else?"
Dion laughed and said, "No, no, apart from having a good background, you're also goodlooking. These are all your merits." Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
"Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and give me some ideas. I still have three days. If I can't get her to be mine in the next three days, by the next time I come out of the army, she might already belong to someone else."
"Then, just be direct and tell her face to face that you want to date her."
After a moment's hesitation, Levi asked,
"What if she refuses me in person?"
"That's impossible. No one could reject you in person."
Hearing his friend's words, Levi got a confidence boost. "That's right, I'm such a perfect man, I'm gentle and caring. No woman could ever reject me," thought Levi.
Hence, Levi decided to take action. Since they were both still in the hospital, he decided to go confess his feelings to Monique
Monique had just finished filling up the paperwork and was about to go home to pick up her grandfather. She turned around and saw Levi. This time, when she saw him, she instinctively frowned in disgust. She quickly turned and tried to go around him.
Everyone in Chatterton Town knew that Rovio Hospital was run by the Kyle family as well as the fact that the Kyle family was close with the Brown family. Usually, people tried their best to not do anything to provoke any member of both families. However, no matter which way Monique turned, Levi would block her.
"Miss Zellweger, we've just met. Don't tell me you don't know me," Levi said with a handsome smile. He felt like he looked good smiling.
"Get out of the way," Monique replied coldly.
"Miss Zellweger, I don't want to waste any more time with nonsense. Let's get down to business. I want to court you. Please agree to be my girlfriend." With these words, Levi felt like she would definitely say yes.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Monique punched him straight in the eye. "Get away from me, don't let me see you again."
Levi came over full of sincerity to pursue Monique. Unexpectedly, not only did she not say yes, but she even landed a punch on him. Even so, since Monique was a beautiful woman, he held it in. "Miss, I think you have some misunderstandings about me."
Monique snorted and said, "What kind of misunderstanding could I have about a pervert like you?"
"Pervert?" This sounded like a joke to Levi. But again, he held it in because she was pretty. "Miss Zellweger, do you even know how to spell the word pervert? Do you know what a pervert does?"
"Get out of my way!" In the army, she looked at this disgusting face every day. And now, she even ran into him outside the military base. What had she ever done to deserve such torment?!
