Brian said indifferently, âItâs a pity Iâve never really believed in oaths. Oaths are the easiest to break.
You said you would sacrifice everything for me. Does that also⦠include your life?â
âHuh?â Whitney Cooper froze slightly before immediately saying, âYes, that includes my life. Brian, it doesnât matter if I lose my life for you. I wouldâve lived a life worse than death if you hadnât saved me!â
âReally?â He looked at her, but his eyes were still indifferent as if her speech did not affect him at all.
âThen pay me back with your life.â
Whitney Cooper was shocked. âWhat do you mean?â
âYouâre no longer my private secretary from now on. Iâm also withdrawing all the help Iâve ever given you. You have nothing to do with me from this moment onward.â In his opinion, he could take back whatever he had given her.
Whitney Cooper immediately turned pale. If he took it all back, she would have nothing left!
Even though he had paid off her family debt, that was all there was to it.
How could she willingly return to her old life now that she had a taste of luxury and knew what she really wanted? âBrian, you canât do this to me. I went to look for Grace because I⦠I was only looking out for you. I know I look a little like her, and I donât mind being a substitute. I can even⦠undergo plastic surgery to look more like her. I can talk like her, dress like her-â
However, Brian interrupted her before she finished speaking, âBut youâre not her!â
In the beginning, he kept her by his side partly because he did not want someone who looked like Grace to end up being a prostitute. It was also because he wanted to use her as a substitute.
However, he realized that he was only fooling himself when he saw Grace again in Deer City.
Having this so-called substitute was just him fooling himself and trying to escape.
Brian got up and walked to the entrance.
Whitney Cooper rushed forward and hugged Brian. âBrian, donât go! I was wrong. I wonât go look for Grace again. Please forgive me! Iâm content as long as I stay by your side!â
âEven if I have nothing?â he asked coldly.
âHow could you have nothing? Youâre the crown prince of the entertainment industry and the heir of Hart Group!â Whitney Cooper said.
Brian looked coldly at the person in front of him and pulled her away from his side. âThe woman I want to love will never be someone like you. Itâs my fault for making you my private secretary back then, so I wonât take back what Iâve given you. But I wonât give you anything more!â
With that said, he left the house without hesitation. He left Whitney Cooper standing blankly alone.
Having stayed by his side and listened to people whisper things about him made her clear how ruthless he was about feelings.
His previous girlfriends had all begged him hard, but he still broke up with them.
She was not even his girlfriend.
What would she do in the future if she could not stay by Brianâs side? What could someone with an average education and no professional skills like her do?
Whitney Cooper was filled with fear and⦠hatred.
