Chapter 620
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
He should have held her tight from the beginning!
âHey, why are you drinking alone?â Patrickâs voice suddenly rang in Brianâs ear. âYou rarely come here.
Isnât it boring to drink alone?â
âBoring?â
Brian turned the glass in his hand and glanced at the people around him.
The only reason he agreed to attend Patrickâs party today was simply that he had been so stressed these days, he wanted to take a breather.
However, after he came, he found that it was still the same.
All he could think about was Grace, and he could not get her out of his head at all.
âBy the way, I heard that you and Jason seemed to have some conflict earlier. What happened?â asked Patrick.
Brian looked at his old friend with a half-smile. âYouâre well-informed.â
Patrick was stunned. âReally?â He had heard the news through the grapevine, but it turned out to be true. âHow did you get into.
trouble with Jason?â
They had known each other since little. Patrick believed that in their social circle, the two least likely to fall out were Jason and Brian.
The two men were too rational and weighed the pros and cons of everything. Jason was indifferent to everything-Of course, that was before he met Grace. Patrick found out at the last banquet that Jason cared about a woman.
As for Brian, in Patrickâs opinion, the fellow always had an aloof attitude toward people. The only thing Brian cared about was the owner of the bracelet.
Even among their social circle, they were betting how long Brian.
would take to find the owner of the bracelet.
âYou want to know?â Brian asked.
âIs it a business conflict between the Hart familyHart family and the Reed family?â Patrick asked after some thought.
Brian was so lazy that he made no answer.
âSurely youâre not fighting over a woman,â mumbled Patrick.
âWhat if we are?â answered Brian.
Patrick looked shocked. âYou⦠You and Jasonâ¦â Well⦠If they were really fighting over a woman, then was it⦠Grace?
Patrick was immediately stressed out.
He did not find Grace very attractive. Besides, she had been to prison. Why did both of themâ¦
âArenât you looking for the owner of the bracelet? Why argue with Jason about a woman? Besides, it looks like Jason is going to marry Grace, so donâtâ¦â
Patrick was not done talking, but Brian suddenly rose from his chair. His expression was not at all casual and relaxed like before, but anxious. âWhat did you say? Marry?â
âYes⦠Yes, I⦠I heard that Jason bought the Frozen Heart diamond to make a wedding ring.â
When Patrick finished talking, Brian dashed toward the exit.
Patrick stared at Brianâs back, feeling a little overwhelmed.
