Chapter 173

Brian looked at her coldly. “What is your duty?”

Ava’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately said, “I’ll go now.”

The property manager quickly brought hot water over. Grace smiled at the property manager. “Thank you.”

Brian felt a little uncomfortable. He could even smile so gently at a strange man. It was as if he had seen his enemy.

She pondered Brian’s intense hatred.

Grace picked up the glass to warm her hand. Her gaze inadvertently swept over Brian. She paused for a moment, blinked, and looked away at the audition performance on stage.

Ava had been paying attention to Grace the entire time. He saw her every move. Naturally, he did not miss her gaze when she met Brian’s eyes just now.

Ava seethed as Grace flirted with Brian openly, revealing her restlessness.

Grace found herself using the restroom more frequently as she entered the mid–term of her pregnancy.

Just after taking a few sips of water, she headed to the bathroom again.

As soon as Grace came out, she saw a face that she hated.

Ava leaned against the wall with a contemptuous smile on her lips. She said sarcastically, “It’s only been a few days. since we last met, but Miss Sherman has already become an artist. Congratulations.”

Grace turned on the tap and washed his hands. She said expressionlessly. Thank you, Miss Adkins.”

Ava hated her nonchalant look the most. She looked cold on the outside, but deep down, she was thinking about how to seduce Brian all day long.

Ava crossed her arms and warned, “Grace, as you can see, I’m with Brian now. I’m not that idiot, Louise, who can let you flirt with Brian. You’d better behave yourself. If I see you seducing Brian, I won’t let you off.”

Grace furrowed her brow, unable to discern the underlying meaning of Ava’s actions.

Ava looked at her puzzled expression and smiled. I’m afraid you don’t know yet. Louise isn’t married to Brian. She went overseas. I’m the one who’s with Brian now.”

Ava raised her chin arrogantly and turned to leave.

Grace’s heart turned cold.

She suddenly felt very disgusted and wondered how men could casually change their girlfriends.

When he was with Louise initially, I witnessed firsthand how affectionate and tender he could be.

Now that Louise had only left for a month, he was already with Ava.

She pondered the potential awkwardness of the situation, contemplating what it would be like if he were to marry someone win in the Adkins family in the future.

13-03 7 Sat, 20 Apr 188 Grace closed her eyes and secretly told herself not to think about it anymore. She had already divorced Brian It was his freedom to be with whoever he wanted. It had nothing to do with her.

When Grace returned, Brian noticed that her expression had become even colder.

She didn’t know if it was because she had a serious cold, but she kept sneezing and coughing.

She was wearing such a thick sweater, but she still felt cold.

STRAU The audition lasted until 6 p.m. Grace left with her bag. She couldn’t help but glance at the seat. That person had left at some point.

Grace went downstairs to hail a taxi. A familiar Aston Martin car stopped in front of her.

Grace’s gaze only paused for a second before he averted his gaze and walked forward.

Brian frowned and got out of the car. He followed behind her and grabbed her wrist.

“Am I a ghost?” Brian looked at her gloomily.

Grace’s expression was cold and distant. She flicked her hair that was blown by the wind. “I’m sorry, I didn’t see it was you just now. What’s the matter? Mr. Francis?”
