chapter 164

Eric pursed his lips. "I felt that she shouldn't have this gift anymore since I failed to understand her."Ben looked at him, speechless. "Who cares about what you think?""...""We are talking about Lucy. Didn't your parents ever teach you this? It's bad manners to take back the gift once you give it to someone. It is really really hurtful! She cried because you asked her to give the earrings back. Hmph! I saw everything through my door slit last night and I was so angry that I wanted to beat you! How dare you make my Lucy cry! She cried the whole night."Eric turned pale at the thought of Lucy crying because of him.Ben shook his head. "You seriously don't understand her."He froze.Once again...once again I didn't understand her…Eric quickly got up and said, "I will give her the earrings again. She won't be sad anymore."Ben grabbed his pants with his chubby hands and pulled him back. "Now you will make her even more sad!"Eric sat back, feeling depressed. "Then what should I do?""Hmph! You should become a man who is better than that other uncle in understanding my Lucy. Though you will still not achieve my level of understanding that dumb woman," Ben seriously nodded.Eric frowned. "Don't call Lucy dumb."He dryly said, "Then what? Intelligent? That will be an insult to the word itself."Ben snorted. "Why does that friend affect you anyway?"Eric said, "I don't know. But I don't like it when I see Lucy with him. She even lied twice to me…I don't like it at all," he turned gloomy."..."He doesn't realize that he is jealous?"I see! No wonder Lucy always grins like an idiot when she talks about you. She found another dumb person like her. A dumb man and a dumb woman. Great match!""...""Before that other man makes a place in her heart, you have to be quick and win this. Or he will take Lucy away!"Eric froze.No. Never. Lucy is my woman. I won't let anybody else take her away from me.His gaze turned cold.Ben said, "You have to show how better you are than him so that the dumb woman doesn't get lured away by him!"---
