Chapter 201
“Nothing happened. Since she did some things she shouldn’t
have, naturally, she should bear the consequences,” Brian said
carelessly as if he did not think it was a big deal at all.
However, when Grace heard it, her heart jumped. Saying it
this way… Had Emily Theller been silenced? She might even
have been forced out of show business.
From then on, she would no longer have luxuries to adorn herself and would have to live a plain life.
On this planet, how many would willingly choose plainness? Especially someone who had experienced luxury before. She was afraid Emily Theller would not be able to withstand that
kind of commoner’s plainness.
“What, are you sympathizing her?” Brian looked at the woman before his eyes and said, “That day, Emily Theller was not courteous to you at all, though.”
“I’m not sympathizing. I think she wouldn’t want my sympathy either,” Grace said. “You don’t have to treat me to a meal as an apology either. I need to catch the bus back to Emerald City.”
“I still want to treat you to a meal.” Brian said.
Grace said indifferently, “Can it be that you want to use force to treat me to a meal?”
“I don’t like to use force, but using it occasionally isn’t bad
either.” Brian pulled Grace’s hand as he spoke, taking big steps toward the car park.
“Brian, what are you planning to do?” Lig Grace yelled in a low voice.
“Just want to have a meal with you,” he said casually.
Was it really just to have a meal? If a man like him really wanted to find a woman to have a meal with, he would have plenty of women who would willingly accompany him. There was absolutely no need for him to force her.
Just as Grace was in doubt, the two of them had already
arrived in front of Brian’s car.
Brian opened the pa**enger seat door, but Grace said, “Mr.
Hart, I really don’t have time to accompany you for a meal. If I
miss this the last bus, I won’t be able to return to Emerald City
tonight.”
His ink-black phoenix eyes stayed fixed on the person in front of him. He said, “If you’re really unwilling to have this meal
with me, I can guarantee that you definitely won’t be able to catch any buses tonight.”
Grace choked. She knew Brian’s capabilities. If he really wanted to do this, it would not be hard.
“Why must I have this meal with you?” she asked, puzzled. If this was just an apology for the last meal, it was too extreme.
“Because I have some things to ask you,” he said.
She looked at him dubiously. After considering it for a moment, she got into the pa**enger seat. If she really were to take this up with him at this time, it would not have much meaning for her.
Besides, she had gone through three years of prison life. She knew a lot more now than back then. She knew that someone
like him could easily change another’s destiny.
Just like how he easily made Emily Theller vanish in show business. Emily Theller had even been a star who was quite famous with a whole bunch of fans, but she got shunned by
him.
She could not even compare to Emily Theller. She was only a sanitation service worker now. It was a lot easier to destroy
her.
For just an instant, Jason’s appearance flashed through
Grace’s mind.
If… that day really came, would Jason be willing to lend her a helping hand?
Heavens! What was she thinking!
Grace inwardly mocked herself for the thought that occurred
to her just now.
