Chapter 841

Gregory, on the other hand, looked at Massimo confusedly.

“You’ve never celebrated your birthday on such a large scale before. What’s the occasion this year?”

When he said this, Vickie was shocked as well.

Massimo scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled awkwardly.

“Gregory, my brother. You shouldn’t expose me like that even if you’ve seen through me. Help me protect my ego here.”

It was rare to see Gregory laugh. “Who’s the lady?”

Massimo’s face started to blush as he stuttered.

“Uh, you’ll know when the time comes.”

Vickie could not understand what they were talking about. As such, she decided to cut in the conversation and ask, “What are you guys talking about? What lady?”

Gregory gently smiled and explained. “Massimo usually despises events like banquets and parties. However, he wants to organize a party for his birthday. I won’t believe that it’s for his own sake.

“Apart from that, there’s no other reason. If I were to really think of a reason, then it'll be that Massimo has found a girl he likes. However, he isn’t that close with the girl. As such, there’s no reason for him to invite the girl to meet up with him at his place. That’s why he’s organizing such an extravagant event, namely his birthday party. This way, he can come up with an excuse to meet up with her.

“There’ll be a lot of people attending the party. As such, the girl won’t suspect that he has any ulterior motives. That is why there’s a high possibility that she’ll show up at the party. When the time comes, all he needs to do is pull some strings in the background and create a romantic encounter with her. No matter how pretty the lady is, he’ll easily capture her heart.”

Vickie was in awe.

She would have never thought that Massimo would do all of this for that reason.

At that moment, she did not know whether she should laugh or cry. At the same time, she glanced at the two men with a forced smile on her face.

“Tsk, be careful or your tricks might get exposed, especially when you’ve set up so many traps. Not only will she not like you back as expected, but you’ll also have to bear the sin of being a manipulator. What will you do then?”

When she said this, Massimo was frightened.

The expression on his face had also changed.

“No way...”

Of course, Vickie just wanted to scare him. How would she know about what the other person was thinking?

She chuckled when she saw his face turning pale white.

“Alright, I’m just messing with you. You’re such a thoughtful person. Trust me when I say that any girl will fall in love with you. Good luck! I’m rooting for you.”

When she finished her sentence, she clenched her fists and did a “good luck’ gesture.

Massimo was relieved.

That was the first time Vickie demonstrated the cute side of hers. Gregory looked at her as his eyes became dim.

However, he did not say anything. He chatted with Massimo for a while before Massimo had to leave for some errands.

After Massimo left, Vickie thought that it was not a good idea to stay in this room with Gregory, so she was prepared to excuse herself as well.

To her surprise, a man stopped her before she could reach the door.

The man looked at her with a serious expression.

He said with a deep voice, “I’ll bring Yuliana with me to Hudson’s wedding tomorrow.”

Vickie could feel her heart thump.

Her good mood suddenly vanished as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water onto her heart.

What did it mean to bring Yuliana to the wedding?

Vickie suddenly realized that it would be commonplace to bring someone along to a wedding, especially for a person like Hudson. Usually, the plus one would be a family member.

Was he trying to hint at something?

In his heart, Yuliana was the most suitable partner for him. Was he serious toward Yuliana?

Her expression grew heavier as her clear eyes lost their original flair. It was as if a layer of dust had covered those eyes.

Gregory saw the changes in her expression and felt quite satisfied. However, his facial expression did not demonstrate it.

He walked toward her and looked down at her. “What are you thinking?”

Vickie suddenly returned to her senses.

She looked upward and gazed upon the man who was standing in front of her. His handsome face became blurry due to the dim lighting of the room.

That increased the bitterness that she felt in her heart.

She forced out a smile.

“Nothing.”

As she said this, she looked away slightly. She was looking in another direction as if she was trying to avoid locking eyes with Gregory.

Vickie panicked. She had thought that her beliefs were set in stone. However, everything fell apart at that moment.

She did not want to lose control in front of him. Thus, she said, “I’m a little tired, so I shall return to my room right now.”

When she finished her sentence, she pushed her wheelchair, ready to leave.

However, Gregory grabbed the wheelchair handles just as she turned around.

His grip was extremely strong. Vickie could never resist his strength.

Her heart quivered as she felt irritated and wronged.

What was this man trying to do?

If his heart was already set on Yuliana, why would he continue to bother Vickie?

Did he know how detestable he was for doing this?

Vickie felt incredibly sad. However, she heard light chuckles coming from above her.

She was startled. Then, she raised her head.

She saw that man’s handsome face getting more profound thanks to the blurry lighting. She could see a gentle smile amidst those dark eyes of his.

He looked at her as if he was looking at his most precious treasure.

“Tell me, what are you thinking about?”

He asked as he bent down with his two arms hanging on the wheelchair handles.

That managed to close the distance between the two of them.

Vickie could almost feel his scent tickling her nose. As such, her body unconsciously moved backward.

However, her petite body was still within the boundaries of his shadow.

She moved her lips for a while. She then said, “Nothing.”

She was acting stubborn.

Gregory laughed.

He grabbed her chin softly, forcing her to look at him directly.

Gregory’s eyes were like dark whirlpools. Vickie felt as if his eyes were starting to pull her in.

He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.

Her heart jumped.

Vickie could not think at that moment. It was as if she did not know anything at all. After that, a warm feeling descended upon her.

Her brain went poof.

His lips had only touched hers for a moment before parting.

Gregory looked at her and said softly, “Vick, let’s get back together after tomorrow, okay?”

Vickie wrinkled her eyebrows.

Rationality was telling her that it was impossible.

As such, she told him with an expressionless face, “Gregory, our relationship ended a long time ago.”

Chapter 487 The End Pt. 5 Yes, it had already ended four years ago.

However, Gregory paid no heed to her words.

He said, “Believe me when I say that everything is not as it seems. I’ve never betrayed you. Just give me some more time. I’ll tell you the answer. It doesn’t matter if the questions are from four years ago or from now. I’ll resolve every single question that you have in your heart. Believe in me.”
