"It's actually quite simple." Elroye raised his eyebrows, "The day before yesterday, I went to the bar with my friends and drank much, so I argued with others."
Hearing this, Chloe suddenly became nervous, "What happened to you? Are you all right?"
"It doesn't matter. Anyway... it's not strange for men to fight occasionally, is it? Don't be so nervous." After that, he stressed, "But, Chloe, I tell you this to let you know Issac better, so you can't tell dad and mom about it. Otherwise, I'll die of hunger if they freeze my bank cards."
"Ahem... You know that dad has warned me, and this is my last chance. If I make troubles again, he won't give me money anymore. You remember this, right?"
He didn't allow Isaac to mention this matter in front of his family, and he reminded Chloe repeatedly, because what he said... was true!
He was a rich man and looked very elegant. If he didn't have a penny, how awkward he would be!
Chloe nodded, "I know this. Don't worry, I won't tell them. Hey, tell me what happened quickly! What was going on later?"
"Anyway, the one who fought with us... seemed to be quite powerful. He is not the kind of person who can be dealt with easily. Do you understand what I mean?"
Chloe looked at Elroye nervously and nodded. She was not in a hurry to speak and waited for him to continue.
"This matter caused a great stir, didn't it? One of my friends beat that man, and that man wanted to give us a lesson and said that he wouldn't let us go. Anyway, he was quite arrogant."
Chloe could not help saying, "Who is that man? If he has a powerful background, we should know him." This circle was neither big nor small. Even if they didn't know all the people in this circle, their friends must know that man.
"I don't know. It's said that he's a nouveau riche from another city." Elroye coughed lightly, "I don't know how Issac learned about it and he went there. In short, he solved the problem for me."
What he said... Ahem! Even if his family found the injury on his head in the future, he would have an excuse. Moreover, although he lied, the situation was almost the same, wasn't it?
"Chloe, you don't know how mighty Issac was at that time." Elroye began to boast, "That man was particularly arrogant, wasn't he? I don't know what Issac said to him at that time. Anyway, it was settled. When we left, the person even saw us off very respectfully and apologized repeatedly."
Chloe was somewhat unconvinced, "Is that so?" She knew that Isaac was capable, but...
"How could I lie to you? I'm your brother, okay?" Well... he really... lied to her.
"So, he solved the problem like that?"
"Yeah." Elroye bragged again, "Issac found that we all looked awkward. We drank a lot, didn't we? He asked someone to send my friends back, and he sent me home personally. Of course, he lectured me and asked me not to cause troubles for my family, especially for you. He said he didn't want you to be too tired. You're a woman, so you should live a comfortable life."
In fact, he deliberately said so, because... he could tell that Chloe had quarreled with Issac.
In the past, although Isaac was polite to him, how could he handle such a thing for him so enthusiastically? He had made a mistake while negotiating with Alaina, but Issac didn't do anything wrong, did he? Issac didn't know the agreement between him and Alaina.
But Issac came to see him and helped him solve the problem. He wouldn't even dare to think about such a thing in the past.
Moreover, Chloe had gone abroad. Although she had been in contact with him in the past few days, she had never mentioned Isaac. If they didn't quarrel, how could she be like this? In the past, she always talked about Issac while chatting with him and called Issac on her own initiative.
