Chapter 131

Grace turned to look at Justin in shock. “Your father is the chairman of Vance Corporation? That means that you are the heir to the Vance Corporation!”

Justin’s expression was icy as he looked at the man speaking on stage. There was no warmth in Justin’s eyes.

Hearing Grace’s words, Justin only replied indifferently, “It’s a bit of a reach to say that I am the heir to the Vance family. I’m merely an illegitimate child.”

Grace was taken aback by this new information. She could not believe that Justin was Zachary’s illegitimate son!

Although Justin said it casually, Grace could sense the faint sadness in his heart.

After Zachary’s speech ended, the hall instantly became lively.

Grace stared at Justin’s side profile for a long time. She could not help but suggest, “Since you’re already here, it wouldn’t hurt to go greet him, you know?”

“He can celebrate his birthday just fine without a son like me,” Justin said without a trace of warmth in his tone.

He then turned to look at Grace and smiled gently at her. “Let’s go get something to eat. There’s dessert over there.”

“Okay.”

Grace smiled and held Justin’s hand as they walked towards the snacks area.

In the booth, Brian sat quietly on the sofa and smoked.

Camren walked over. “Mr. Francis, the gift has been delivered. Would you like to leave now? If you would like to make a move, I’ll go and prepare the car.”

Brian nodded in response. “Let’s go.”

“Okay.” Camren turned around and walked ahead of Brian. Brian stubbed out his cigarette and stood up. His slender legs stepped out of the booth. Suddenly, he saw a familiar side profile from the corner of his eye.

Brian frowned and turned to look.

The woman was wearing a white dress. Her hair was tied loosely behind her head, revealing her beautiful long neck, slender figure, and exquisite face. No one could take their eyes off of her.

The man she was holding was wearing a white suit. The pair looked as if they were bathing in the sun as they stood under the bright light. The atmosphere between them felt warm and sweet.

It was not an exaggeration to describe the two as the perfect couple.

However, this scene made Brian’s eyes sting. His fingers subconsciously clenched into fists.

It seemed that Grace had become very carefree after leaving him!

th his gaze fixed on Grace, Brian called out to Camren, “Camren! You can leave first. I’ll head back myself later.”

“What?” Camren responded, confused. His queries were answered when he followed Brian’s gaze and saw Grace, whose beauty was akin to that of a white swan.

A trace of surprise flashed across Camren’s eyes. He looked at his boss and couldn’t help but chuckle.

“Alright, then I’ll leave first.”

Brian’s gaze gaze seemed to be glued to Grace. He walked to the wine table at the side and downed a glass of wine.

He had never seen Grace with such a dazzling smile on her face. He had also never seen Grace this beautiful.

It was as if her entire body was glowing. Brian’s eyes seemed drawn to her, mesmerized by her beauty.

He could not take his gaze off Grace as he downed one glass after another.

The pair walked towards the snack area and got closer and closer…

Suddenly, Grace seemed to feel a gaze on her. She tilted her head slightly and met Brian’s dark eyes.

Grace’s body stiffened, and her grip on Justin instinctively tightened.

Her actions caused Justin to stop in his tracks. “What’s wrong?”

Grace quickly lowered her head to hide the expression on her face. “Nothing.”

Grace did not expect Brian to suddenly walk towards her just as she was about to walk away. Brian could not hide the sarcasm in his eyes as he approached the pair and stopped in front of them with a glass of wine in one hand.
