Chapter 366 At ten oâclock, Grace received a call from Brian.
She hesitated for a long while, and by the time she picked up, the call was almost about to disconnect automatically.
âWhy didnât you come?â came his deep voice.
âI already told Louise this afternoon that I have to go home to take care of my child and donât have time. I hope you all had fun.â
âDo you think Iâm having fun?â Brian asked coldly.
Grace found him amusing. âDonât tell me youâre unhappy because I didnât go.â
He didnât speak as if he was admitting it.
After a while, he suddenly said, âI invited everyone to dinner today because of you, and you stood me Youâve got some nerve.â
Grace replied sarcastically, âI stood you up? I never agreed to go to the dinner in the first place.â
Brian didnât get angry but changed the subject after a moment. âDid you do the lottery event for the anniversary celebration all by yourself?â
She instantly understood why he was asking. âWhy? Did Louise tell you she did it, and donât you believe her so much? Sheâs kind and generous. Why are you asking me?â
Brian actually had an answer in his heart but was unwilling to believe that Louise would take credit for Graceâs work in front of him.
Grace didnât want to waste any more words with him and said perfunctorily, âIâm going to sleep. Goodbye.â
With that, she hung up the phone and set it to silent.
Outside the restroom, Brian glanced at the phone that had been hung up, his face clouded over.
The sound of high heels echoed in the background, and Louise just caught sight of Brian looking at his phone. A chill ran through her heart, and her intuition told her he had been calling Grace.
Brian put away his phone, looked at Louise, and said with an impassive expression, âIâll go back first. Iâll have Camren come to wait for you. Call him when youâve had enough fun.â
As he said this, his gaze swept over her briefly.
Louise sensed his coldness and took his hand. âBrian, whatâs wrong with you today? Is it because Grace didnât come that youâve been unhappy all this time?â
Brian pressed his lips together and looked at her, ultimately choosing not to reveal anything. âNo, Iâm just a bit tired.â
He subtly removed her hand and left without looking back.
Louise felt a void in her heart but didnât dare to follow.
Grace! It must be because of Grace!â she roared inwardly.

After the toast, music began to play, and everyone started to enter the dance floor. A hand suddenly appeared in front of Grace.
