Chapter 620
He should have held her tight from the beginning!
“Hey, why are you drinking alone?” Patrick’s voice suddenly rang in Brian’s ear. “You rarely come here. Isn’t it boring to drink alone?“
‘Boring?’
Brian turned the gla** in his hand and glanced at the people around him.
The only reason he agreed to attend Patrick’s party today was simply that he had been so stressed these days, he wanted to take a breather.
However, after he came, he found that it was still the same.
All he could think about was Grace, and he could not get her out of his head at all.
“By the way, I heard that you and Jason seemed to have some conflict earlier. What happened?” asked Patrick.
Brian looked at his old friend with a half-smile. “You’re well-informed.”
Patrick was stunned. “Really?” He had heard the news through
the grapevine, but it turned out to be true. “How did you get into.
trouble with Jason?”
They had known each other since little. Patrick believed that in their social circle, the two least likely to fall out were Jason and
Brian.
The two men were too rational and weighed the pros and cons of everything. Jason was indifferent to everything-Of course, that
was before he met Grace. Patrick found out at the last banquet
that Jason cared about a woman.
As for Brian, in Patrick’s opinion, the fellow always had an aloof
attitude toward people. The only thing Brian cared about was the
owner of the bracelet.
Even among their social circle, they were betting how long Brian.
would take to find the owner of the bracelet.
“You want to know?” Brian asked.
“Is it a business conflict between the Hart familyHart family and the Reed family?” Patrick asked after some thought.
Brian was so lazy that he made no answer.
“Surely you’re not fighting over a woman,” mumbled Patrick.
“What if we are?” answered Brian.
Patrick looked shocked. “You… You and Jason…” Well… If they
were really fighting over a woman, then was it… Grace?
Patrick was immediately stressed out.
He did not find Grace very attractive. Besides, she had been to
prison. Why did both of them…
“Aren’t you looking for the owner of the bracelet? Why argue with Jason about a woman? Besides, it looks like Jason is going to marry Grace, so don’t…”
Patrick was not done talking, but Brian suddenly rose from his chair. His expression was not at all casual and relaxed like before, but anxious. “What did you say? Marry?”
“Yes… Yes, I… I heard that Jason bought the Frozen Heart diamond to make a wedding ring.”
When Patrick finished talking, Brian dashed toward the exit.
Patrick stared at Brian’s back, feeling a little overwhelmed.
