Unveiling the Genius Behind the Divorcee Chapter 81 Chapter 81 Brake Failure When Robert was young, his greatest wish was to have a little sister.
Unfortunately for the Gardner familyâs three boys, the youngest one completely lost his chance to be an older brother.
The birth of Aylin completely fulfilled his dream of becoming a big brother. Robert doted on his little sister immensely. In his life, there were two most important things: one was car racing, and the other was his sister!
Cherishing Aylin had become a responsibility, a habit, a subconscious action that he would naturally do without much thought.
Robert squinted his eyes and playfully threatened, âIf you donât behave, Iâll take away all your limited edition Barbie dolls!â
Upon hearing this, Aylin couldnât help but laugh helplessly.
She had long outgrown the age of playing with Barbie dolls, and she knew that Robert was just showing his concern for her.
Itâs not true to remain unmoved.
So she pretended to be scared and said, âRobert, youâre so cruel! How could you take away my Barbie doll? Can you bear to see me sad?â
Robert, being scrupulous, crossing his arms and lightly humming, âHiding things from Robertâ when something happens, you definitely deserve some light punishment. Besides, what am I compared to them? If Willie and Harry knew you had suffered so much, they would probably turn New York upside down. They were the ones who assigned me this task, and if they knew I didnât take good care of you, they would definitely give me a hard time...â
In the middle of the conversation, Robert suddenly paused.
What the heck, what did he just say?
Iâve blurted out the things that I shouldnât say about!
Even though Harry had promised Aylin not to tell Willie about her affairs, he did.
Robertâs face turned awkward, and he quickly tried to make amends. âAylin, let me explain. Over the years, Willie and Harry have been genuinely worried about you. I couldnât bear to see them still immersed in pain, so-â
Aylin smiled faintly, âI know.â
Robert was dumbfounded, âHuh?â
âIâve known all along that this secret couldnât be kept. If you, Robert, could actually keep your mouth shut, now that would be unscientific.â
Aylin chuckled softly, knowing she could never really be mad at her brothers. After all, their actions. were out of love and care for her. She just didnât want them to worry, and she wouldnât fuss over such trivial matters.
Robert scratched his head with a grin, âOh, Aylin guessed it already? Our Aylin is so smart, itâs like sheâs psychic. Thatâs right, Iâm very pleased!â
Aylin glanced at him, the laughter in her eyes blooming like flowers on a flourishing branch.
It seemed just like their carefree childhood days when she would visit the Gardner residence to play. Every time, Robert would always tell her all kinds of jokes.
The young girl giggled uncontrollably, falling into Robertâs arms. Robert would always ruffle her fluffy hair and say, âOur Aylin is so adorable.â
No matter when, her older brothers would always be by her side, providing her with the strength and confidence to keep moving forward.
The atmosphere gradually warmed up, and as Daniel listened from behind, his heart also began to relax.
He leaned on the handle and stood up.
Before they could even settle in, suddenly, the previously steady speed of the car abruptly increased. The needle on the steering wheel went wild, and they took a sharp turn.
The three people inside the car, all buckled up, were swayed back and forth by the sudden jolt!
Robert blurted out, âWhat the heck?â
He looked at Aylin in surprise. Hadnât he already calmed her emotions? Why was she still driving so aggressively?
Robert brushed back his slightly messy bangs and exclaimed, âAylin, your unexpected move would be hard for anyone to handle, even on a racetrack!â
âItâs not any kind of trick.â
Aylinâs expression was calm, and her tone was even, but the words she spoke were like a thunderbolt thrown onto the surface of a lake, âThe brakes have failed.â
âThe foot brake malfunctioned?â
Robert, who deals with cars, suddenly felt alarm bells ringing in his heart. He immediately leaned over to pull the handbrake.
To their surprise, when they tried to pull it, they discovered that even the rarely used handbrake was broken!
Robertâs face suddenly changed, âAylin, has anyone else driven this car before?â
âOther than my assistant, thereâs no one else I trustâ Aylin pondered for a moment. âJust the other day, I took the car to the auto shop for maintenance. The owner and I are old acquaintances, so if there were any issues with the car, he would definitely inform me right away.â
That leaves only one possibility!
The siblingsâ gazes met, exchanging a look of certainty. Someone must have tampered with this car!
Sitting in the back seat, Daniel heard it and jolted upright, suddenly wide awake. His face turned serious and gloomy.
Someone wants to harm Aylin?
Who has such malicious intentions?
Someone sneezed.
This was Hansonâs third sneeze in a row, and he grumbled, âWhat the heck, why do I keep sneezing!â
Lexie quickly tucked the blanket around him, âThe air conditioning in this hospital is too cold, and I donât know where the remote control is. I just spoke to the nurse, and theyâll come over soon to adjust it for you.â
The cold air from the air conditioner couldnât alleviate Hansonâs inner anxiety; instead, it only made him feel more irritable.
He was waiting for an important phone call.
I didnât even have time for lunch, for fear of missing out!
âWhy is she taking so long!â Hanson complained.
Lexie clicked her tongue, clearly a bit displeased. Just as she was about to chime in with a few words, the quiet phone on the bedside table suddenly began to vibrate urgently.
Hansonâs eyes lit up as he quickly swiped to answer the call, âHello? How did things go?â
