Chapter 955
However, it was too late. You Keer’s hand was already on Grace’s back and was about to push Grace to the side where there were a lot of old computer spare parts that the firm had replaced some time ago. If she bumped into these things, then. they would all fall on her. She would probably suffer a serious injury if that happened.
A hand suddenly grabbed Grace’s arm and pulled her backward. Then, You Keer was kicked to the ground.
The flurry of actions took place almost instantaneously.
You Keer hit the wall, and her back started to hurt like hell.
“Who kicked…” You Keer raised her head angrily. She was about to swear, but her pupils shrank and her voice seemed to be stuck in her throat when she saw who it was.
‘Isn’t this… the crown prince?
‘Gosh, why is the crown prince here? He’s even… holding the homewrecker in his arms?’
You Keer was a little stunned and said almost subconsciously, “Young Master Gu, this woman is no good. She’s just a
homewrecker-”
This time, she was slapped in the face before she could finish.
- However, it was her boyfriend Curtis Row who slapped her.
Curtis Row felt as if his life had shortened by several years
today!
“Young Master Gu, I’m sorry. She’s just babbling nonsense. Please forgive her! I’m sorry for what happened to Miss Cummins today. I’ll make amends to Miss Cummins later!” said Curtis Row as he bowed repeatedly.
“Make amends? Can you afford it?” Brian asked coldly.
Curtis Row was dripping with cold sweat.
You Keer was dumbfounded. ‘What’s… going on here?’ She had to be a fool to see that things were not quite what she first thought.
The homewrecker did not seem to be hooking up with Curtis. Row.
On the contrary, she seemed close to the crown prince.
Looking at the figure in his arms, Brian asked, “Are you alright?”
“I’m alright. Thanks,” Grace said politely as she pushed Brian. away and took two steps back.
His arms felt emply all of a sudden.
With a frown on his face, Brian found her indifference and
distance especially harsh.
Grace turned and looked at Curtis Row. “Mr. Yu, please take your girlfriend and leave! Also, I reserve the right to sue your girlfriend for the insults she directed at me today.”
“Sure, sure! I’m sorry. I’m so sorry!” Curtis Row apologized repeatedly. Then, he rudely dragged You Keer to leave the firm quickly.
Not only did he fail to make amends, but he also added new
trouble to his list!
As for You Keer, she was still confused about the entire thing.
Grace turned around and was about to explain to Lawyer
Carter.
After all, it would leave a bad impression when such a thing happened at the firm… Even if she was not the one at fault.
Just as she was about to pa** Brian, he grabbed her wrist and
turned to Lawyer Carter who was nearest to them. He said,
“Give me a room. I want to talk to her alone.”
Chapter 956
“Ah, sure!” Although Brian had not introduced himself, Lawyer Carter recognized him and agreed. He took him to a conference room and told Grace, “You can talk to Mr. Hart
here.”
Grace was a little speechless.
When the door closed, only Grace and Brian were left in the
conference room.
There seemed to be an indescribable sense of depression in
the air.
Outside the conference room, Andrea Schwartz and the other colleagues were stunned.
The plot twist was too unexpected. What started as someone meeting their lover turned into the girlfriend trying to confront the homewrecker. Then, the story changed again.
Grace was not a homewrecker and she seemed close to the
entertainment industry’s crown prince.
When Andrea Schwartz saw Brian, her mood was different
from the others.
Brian had previously run into them when she was giving
Grace a hard time and defended Grace.
She thought Brian had lost interest in Grace when the internet
was full of gossip about him and Stella.
After all, no woman would last long with the crown prince of the entertainment industry.
However, who would have thought that Brian would appear again today and defend Grace as before?!
“What on earth does Grace have for Brian to defend her like
this?”
Andrea Schwartz felt a mixture of hate and jealousy. Her boyfriend, who was an a**ociate professor, was nothing compared to Brian.
The colleagues who had been taunting Grace for corrupting the office’s code of conduct by being a homewrecker. immediately shut their mouths and stared at each other.
In the conference room, Grace looked at Brian and said, “Thank you for that, but I don’t think we have anything to talk. about, Mr. Hart.”
If it had not been for Brian, she might have gotten injured again. However, she had no idea what Brian was doing here.
“What’s going on with you and Jason?” asked Brian. She was. with Jason at the banquet that day, but she seemed reluctant. “Do you have a secret? Let me know if you do. I can help you.
out.”
“Help me?” Grace raised her eyes. “Why?”
‘Yeah, why?’ Brian looked at the woman in front of him. Frankly speaking, he had nothing to do with her. “You’re Lifang’s cousin. What’s so weird about me helping you out?”
“Does your fondness extend to everyone related to the person. you like? Would you have liked whoever that little girl was and what she grew up to be?” Grace asked abruptly.
Brian frowned slightly. “What do you mean?”
She smiled faintly. “Nothing. I just think you’re really nice to
Stella. You’d even care about her cousin.”
‘No, my concern for you isn’t because of Lifang, but…! The answer was about to escape his heart! Pursing his lips slightly,
Brian said, “You haven’t answered me yet. What’s going on. between you and Jason?”
“That doesn’t seem to concern you, Mr. Hart. I also don’t need your help,” said Grace.
sne promised Jason that she would become his sister again for Kyla and Nelson’s sake, so she could not go back on her words now.
After all, one had to give something for what they got.
