Chapter 105

Brian suddenly asked Grace a serious question.

Grace was stunned. Looking at his dark pupils, for a moment, Grace had the urge to tell him.

However, she immediately controlled herself. ‘If I tell him now, he will only think that I am slandering Louise and sowing discord between them. Besides, I don’t have any evidence now, Grace thought, At the thought of this, Grace stopped thinking about it. “It’s nothing. Maybe because I’m in a bad mood.

I beg you not to make things difficult for Ms. Patel.”

After looking at her for a few seconds, Brian walked back to his office chair and said calmly, “Rest for a while.”

Grace did not want to stay in his office. She was also afraid that she would affect Nancy’s work if she went out, nor did she want to go back and face Louise.

After hesitating for a moment, Grace found a chair furthest away from Brian in his office and sat down.

Grace casually picked up the magazine on the table and flipped through a few pages, but she could not read anything.

Out of the corner of his eye, Brian saw Grace’s absent–mindedness. His long fingers rhythmically twirled the hand.

Grace put down the magazine in her hand and looked up to see Brian looking at her.

I’m sorry.

Am I distracting you?” Grace asked.

Grace looked at him for a long time before finally saying, “How’s the investigation going?”

Brian frowned slightly. He knew that she was talking about what happened in Jacksonville.

He said in a deep voice, “Nothing. The location is too remote. We haven’t found them yet.”

Lor CVCS. Wh Grace lowered her eyes. Brian could not see the expression in are you suddenly asking this?”

“…it’s nothing.” Grace wanted to say something but hesitated.

Brian glanced at his watch. It was almost five o’clock. He stood up. “Let’s go. I’ll drive you back.”

Grace looked at Brian and thought of something. Her gaze changed slightly. “Forget it. I’ll go back myself later.”

Brian frowned. “Grace, are you throwing another tantrum?”

Grace was stunned. Am I throwing a tantrum in his eyes? she thought.

She explained patiently. “After all, your fiancée is still at home. If she sees me taking your car back, she will, more or less, be unhappy.”

His words deeply pierced Grace’s heart. ‘He actually compared me to a petty person!” Grace thought.

na Grace laughed. “Yes, I’m a petty person. I wish you and Miss Adkins a long life together.”

She looked at him deeply. ‘Brian, you blind man! You’re blind and your heart is blind tool‘ she thought.

Grace turned around and left the office. She went to Nancy’s desk.

“Nancy, I’m leaving now. Thank you for today.”

Nancy saw that Grace’s face was frighteningly pale. Nancy immediately stood up and stopped her.

“Where are you going? Do you still want to run alone in this state?”

Grace smiled. She felt cool liquid slowly seeping out of the corners of her eyes. “I’m fine.”

Nancy refused to allow Grace to leave. She pulled on Grace and forced her to sit on the chair. “Be good. I’ll get off work in ten minutes. I’ll send you back later.”

Grace did not refuse and said gratefully, “Nancy, thank you.”

Not long after, Brian came out of the office. He gave off an oppressive air. Wherever he went, he seemed to be able to bring a gust of cold air with him.
