Chapter 2691: Chapter 2692

“Who did you call?” she asked curiously.

“It’s a restaurant owned by Hart Group. It’s open 24 hours a day,”

he said.

Sure enough, someone delivered porridge and several side dishes to the ward 20 minutes later.

“Aren’t you going to eat?” Valda Theller asked.

“I’m not hungry. Go ahead,” said Brian.

Valda Theller hesitated no more. After all, she was very hungry.

She ate the porridge with the side dishes, which tasted extraordinarily delicious at four in the morning.

Brian looked at Valda Theller. It was only a simple bowl of porridge and some side dishes, but she enjoyed them.

He murmured, “Are you always so easily satisfied? You’re even eating the porridge like you’re having a feast.”

“That’s because everything tastes superb when you’re hungry,”

said Valda Theller.

“What about life? Are you content with your current life?” he asked.

“I’m quite content with it.” She smiled. “I can do something I love and make money to support myself. I have extra money to set up my savings for retirement too. It’s much better than what I had before.”

“Better than what you had?” Brian chuckled.

“What about you? Are you content?” she asked curiously.

He was silent.

The ward instantly fell silent again.

Valda Theller awkwardly said, “Uhh… Did I ask the wrong question? I’m sorry.”

Brian shook his head. “It’s nothing. I just don’t know what’s contentment.” He had everything he wanted since he was a child. He had no idea what it felt like to feel content or discontent.

Later, he kept looking for Grace but failed. He was not content at the time.

He had failed to get what he wanted all these years. He felt like there was a hole in his heart he could never fill.

“If I can’t get what I want, maybe I’ll never feel content.” He laughed at himself.

She looked blankly at him, and a voice in her head shouted, ‘Don’t ask. It’s not your place to ask!’

However, she could not help asking, “What do you want?”

His phoenix eyes gazed at her. Just when she thought he would not answer, his thin lips slowly said, “I don’t want that someone to worry. I want her to be reassured. I’m willing to do anything to ensure that.”

Valda Theller instantly could not take her eyes off Brian’s face.

‘Is he talking about the woman he loves?

‘He loves her so deeply. How many people in this world are able to love someone that deeply?’
