Chapter 399 Fiona talked with great enthusiasm, starting from their college life and extending to experiences after graduation.
Menu Finally, Fiona asked Bryce earnestly, âBy the way, why wouldnât you go out with me back in college?â Bryce instinctively glanced at Mariela, who was busy chatting with Caylee about the latest fashion show, completely unaware of the question thrown out by Fiona.
Fiona was also oblivious to Bryceâs gaze towards Mariela.
Bryce quickly averted his gaze, smiling distantly yet politely. âI had someone I liked at that time.â
Fiona was surprised.âWhat? Who is it?â
Bryce lowered his gaze and smiled, without answering.
Fiona saw that he didnât answer and suddenly thought of something. Shocked, she covered her mouth and asked, âYou, you are not gay, are you?â
Bryce coughed as he didnât expect Fiona to have such a misunderstanding. The coffee he had just drunk suddenly got stuck in his throat. Mariela heard the word âgayâ and turned her head in surprise to look at them.âWhoâs gay? Mr. Vance, you...â
Then she swallowed her words.
âNo, no.â Bryce quickly waved his hand in denial.âIâm 100 percent straight.â
Fiona glanced at him skeptically and asked, âSo why wouldnât you tell us who you liked?â
*I...â
âWhat are you laughing about? Whatâs so funny?â Bryce was just about to speak when he was interrupted by a cold, stern male voice.
Fiona had a chill down her spine, and the smile on her face instantly froze.
Darryl walked over and casually pulled out a chair, plopping down in a relaxed manner and staring at Fiona with a fake smile.
âFiona, when did you become so close to Bryce?â
Fiona was speechless.
She wondered when this jealous man came.
Fiona said, âHey, Darryl.â She instantly drooped and awkwardly smiled, âI was just introducing Bryce as a law firm partner to Marie.â
âOh? Is that so?â Darryl glanced at Bryce coldly.
Bryce smiled politely.
Darryl sounded envious, with a cold smile curling at the corner of his lips. âWhy do I hear you asking him why he didnât go out with you back in college?â
Fiona choked before saying, âI...â
Mariela and Caylee looked at each other.
Darryl seemed so strange today.
But they couldnât tell what was wrong.
Fiona sneered, âYou heard it wrong.â
Then she took out her phone and fiddled with it for a while, and suddenly the ringtone sounded.
Fiona put it against her ear.âHello? This is Fiona. Whatâs up? Oh, right now? Okay, Iâll be on my way.â
