Chapter 171 - Shes not a liar! (1/2)
Harry dropped the bun he was eating. His eyes glued on the television as the credit for Hot & Spicy Ginger played. What was this? That woman actually portrayed Ryn as the bad guy indirectly with her words. She did not say it out loud but the way she 'confessed' made it seemed like Ryn was the third party between her relationship with that man.
”You mean Catherine, the model in the same company as yours, is a boyfriend stealer?” Mia gasped in shock.
”No!”
Both the mother and daughter looked at Harry in shock.
Harry took a deep breath to calm down. He leaned down to pick up the bun he dropped. He put the bun on the plate on the coffee table and stood up.
”Don't believe anything she said,” he said coldly.
”But... Jennifer will not lie,” Mia cried. Jennifer is her favourite singer. Mia is even the VIP in Jennifer's fan club, the Dearest.
”You believe her?” Harry snorted.
”Harry, stop making your sister sad,” his mother reminded quietly.
”Mother, she's a singer. She's in the entertainment world. She's not naive and innocent to be able to be in this industry for years,” Harry said desperately.
”She's not a liar,” Mia cried stubbornly. ”It's obvious that Catherine cannot accept that Jeremy is with Jennifer so she tried to get between them.”
”I know Ryn. She is not that kind of woman,” Harry stated firmly.
”But...”
”That's enough, Mia. Stop making assumptions before you listen to everyone's side,” Harry stared at his little sister.
Mia looked at their mother sadly.
”Harry!”
”Mother, this is a gossip entertainment program. They create gossips, they create stories to sell their program. How do we know what they say is the truth? We haven't heard what Jeremy says yet. Even if we look at the video, it's clear that Jeremy doesn't care about Jennifer,” Harry said.
Mia wanted to argue but this time Mrs Si put a hand on her daughter's hand, shaking her head to stop Mia from saying anything.
”Ryn is not that kind of girl. I know her. She doesn't care about relationship right now. Her mind is full with study and work,” Jeremy added.
”I know you think Catherine is not what Jennifer portrays she is but...” Mrs Si paused, ”Even you don't know who Catherine really is. Do you know her more than a year? Are you two close enough for you to know her personally?”
”Maybe she's a gold digger,” Mia said without thinking.
”If she's a gold digger, she will try to be closer to me. But she did not even bat an eye when she knew dad's company. She did not even care that I'm popular in the campus. She treats me like she treats others. She doesn't even care about money. She earns a lot from her oversea works,” Harry muttered.
”Maybe she's pretending,” Mia muttered.
”Mia, shut your mouth,” Harry warned.
”Mother~” Mia cried, hugging her mother in fear of her big brother.
”Mia, stop making your brother angry,” Mrs Si told her daughter gently and glared at her son, ”Stop making your sister scared, Harry.”
”She should learn to think before she speak,” Harry muttered.
”She's still small. She still needs to learn,” Mrs Si defended her daughter. Mia nodded rapidly. She was the baby in the family.
”She's eighteen years old,” Harry pointed out.
”She's still a baby,” Mrs Si stated firmly.
”Stop spoiling her too much. She needs to be treated as an adult,” Harry said desperately.
”She's still a baby,” Mrs Si repeated with a warning glare.
