Chapter 831
Even though the people in this circle
were considered rich or powerful by others, everyone was ranked.
To Curtis Row’s surprise, Brian replied,
“Sure.”
Curtis Row was overjoyed. He felt as if
he had just won the lottery. If he could
get close to Brian, his status in the circle
would be different.
When Curtis Row led Brian and Stella
to the pool table, Grace could not help smiling bitterly.
This was just what she was worried
about.
Grace took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said to Curtis Row, “Mr. Yu, would you please sign this document
first?”
“Just wait. Don’t disturb us!” Curtis Row
said impatiently. He was afraid it would interrupt his game with Brian and affect
him from making friends with him.
Grace lowered her head and bit her
lip slightly. She could feel Brian’s eyes
sweeping over her.
However… it was just a sweep.
“Lifang, have you ever played pool?”
Brian’s voice rang.
“Ah… No,” Stella replied quickly.
“I’ll teach you,” said Brian.
Stella was instantly surprised and
responded to him immediately.
Brian briefly explained the rules to Stella. Then, he taught her how to use the cue
stick.
His cool voice, accompanied by that light tone, formed a unique lingering charm.
Stella did not expect Brian to teach her how to play pool in person and became
even more excited at that moment.
However, Grace was standing next to her
now. As such, she also wanted to show
her sisterly affection in front of Brian.
“Brian, Grace is also here today. Why
don’t-”
“Of course, she’s here for her own
reasons. Are you going to say hello to
her?” Brian said casually.
“I…” Stella hesitated. Of course she did
not want to say hello to Grace. She also did not want Brian to say hello to her.
“Young Master Gu, can we start?” Curtis
Row’s voice rang.
“Sure,” said Brian. Then, he asked Stella
to stand near the edge of the pool table.
Stella also started playing pool, but Grace standing by the side made her uneasy as well as nervous.
However, Brian’s dismissive attitude
toward Grace allayed Stella’s fears.
It seemed that Brian was no longer
interested in Grace, and if she continued
to remind Brian of his gratitude and
childhood memories, she would
eventually make Brian fall in love with
her. He would no longer treat her as just
his savior.
Stella deliberately went closer to Brian
when she played, creating an
ambiguous atmosphere. Then, she said, “Brian, you said you’d show me the world and let me try everything delicious and interesting when we were little. I never thought it would happen one day.”
With a flutter of his eyelashes, Brian
looked at Stella’s face that was covered
with heavy makeup and said lightly, “I’m glad you like it.”
