"How about we go over there, Mr. Brandon?"Brandon immediately turned when Brianna pointed to one of the rather scary-looking stalls. Just by looking at its appearance, Brandon could tell that it was a fortune teller's booth.A frown was clearly visible on Brandon's face as he turned back to Brianna and said, "Do you still believe in fortune-telling? Isn't this the modern era?"Brandon was certainly quite surprised by Brianna's request. She was a career woman and very successful, but how could Brianna invite him to a fortune teller's booth?Brianna didn't answer the question Brandon had just asked. Of course, she knew that Brandon must be wondering about this. But she didn't want to explain it in detail. She quickly grabbed Brandon's hand while saying, "There's no harm in trying, Mr. Brandon. Whether we believe the fortune teller or not is a matter for later."Brandon just went along as Brianna pulled his hand. He was actually quite curious about the fortune-telling, even though he wa
At a famous hospital, a doctor who had just arrived in his office immediately opened his phone after receiving a message from someone.His brow furrowed when he saw the sent message.Catherine.[Do you know how Angelica behaves behind your back?]After reading the message, an image was sent next. Kevin, feeling curious, quickly opened the image. His heart raced when he saw Angelica holding hands with Brandon.Actually, Angelica had already told him they were going to a charity event. However, Angelica had told him that she would introduce Brandon to Catherine. So what was he seeing now?With a bit of emotion, Kevin immediately called Angelica. He wanted to hear an explanation from the woman. But unfortunately, Angelica didn't answer his call.Not wanting to give up so easily, Kevin tried to call Angelica again, but once more the woman still hadn't picked up the phone."Damn! How can you not answer my call, Angelica?"Kevin quickly ended the call, trembling as he left the room he had j
Seeing who was standing right in front of Angelica, the woman immediately stood up and wrapped her arm around that strong arm. "Kevin, how are you here?" she asked with an expression of surprise and joy.Kevin turned to Angelica and smiled, "I was worried something had happened to you, Angelica, that's why I followed you."Angelica suddenly blushed, she said, "You are indeed very caring, Kevin, but I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me."Their conversation made Chaterina, who of course couldn't take her eyes off them, feel a bit annoyed. Her hands clenched tightly, but she tried to smile. "That's right, Kevin, you don't need to worry about Angelica, I'll definitely take care of her," Chaterina chimed in.Kevin just nodded, his gaze now focused on a man who had been quiet as if he didn't care. He was Brandon, choosing to remain silent even though he knew about Kevin's arrival."Now sit here, Kevin." Angelica pulled out an empty chair for Kevin, where Kevin then sat down with a smi
Everyone was shocked, especially Brandon. The sudden commotion made all heads turn towards Ariana, who had just slammed her hand on their table quite hard. Ariana even felt pain in her palm, but ignored it.Brandon's eyes widened in surprise as he recognized his ex-fiancée. "Ariana?" he said, his voice a mix of confusion and disbelief. "What are you doing?"Angelica, Kevin, and Chaterina all looked at Ariana with confused expressions, not understanding what had caused this woman to suddenly come and bang on the table.Angelica, who didn't take kindly to the interruption, immediately stood up, "Are you crazy?!" she asked with a sharp look.Ariana ignored Angelica. She glared at Brandon, her eyes blazing with anger and hurt, "How dare you sit here, looking so happy and successful, after everything you've done?" she spat out, her voice trembling with emotion.Brandon, still shocked by her sudden appearance, tried to calm himself. "Ariana, what are you talking about? What are you doing he
After finishing paying for the taxi, Brandon immediately supported Ariana. The man now stood right in front of the woman's house.Before pressing the doorbell, Brandon took a deep breath. It had been a long time since he had set foot in Ariana's house since their engagement ended. And this was the first time Brandon had set foot there again.Not wanting to waste time, Brandon immediately pressed the doorbell. He stood in front of the door for a while, until finally, the previously closed door opened, revealing Ellie.Ellie looked in disbelief at the person who came to her house. Instead of being shocked by what happened to Ariana, the middle-aged woman focused on staring at Brandon.Ellie asked rudely, "What are you doing at my house, you bastard!"Ellie still couldn't forget the incident at the company. Where Brandon had hit Ryan, Brianna's brother, until he bled, she now glared at Brandon.Brandon sighed, "You should worry about your daughter before asking questions," Brandon said i
After Ellie's departure, Ryan paused for a moment. He looked at Ariana, who lay unconscious on the bed, still wearing her dirty clothes. Ryan realized it was impossible for him to change Ariana's clothes himself."How could Mom ask me to change Ariana's clothes? Is she crazy?"Ryan glared at Ariana in frustration. He didn't know what Ariana had done to end up getting drunk like this."Damn! You're such a hassle, Ariana." With no other choice, Ryan was about to change Ariana's clothes, but before he could do that, he hesitated.As an adult man, Ryan would surely be tempted if he saw a woman's body, even if it was his own sister's.Ryan sighed. He couldn't do something that would only put him in danger. After a moment of silence, Ryan tried to think, until finally he nodded. "This is for the best," he muttered softly.He then decided to leave Ariana's room. In the hallway, Ryan paused before walking towards the stairs. He went downstairs, looking for Mrs. Thompson, the housekeeper who h
Brandon returned from his ex-fiancée's residence with heavy steps, as if what had just happened had such an effect on the course of his life now.He sighed, expelling all the negative energy that had nearly made Brandon lose control.It wasn't the time for Brandon to feel furious about that woman's attitude; he would try to ignore it as if nothing had happened earlier.Brandon parked his car right at the restaurant where he was meeting with a patient he was treating and several colleagues whose names were already well-known in the city where he lived."Excuse me. Are they still here? My friends at table 13?" Brandon asked, stopping one of the waiters who was passing by.The waiter looked towards the table in question and then tried to remember who Brandon was referring to."Oh, under Miss Angelica's name, sir?" the waiter asked back with a friendly smile.Brandon nodded, confirming the waiter's question. "Where are they now? Have they left already?" Brandon asked again in a firm tone,
Angelica took a deep breath, feeling her throbbing head indicating she was experiencing dizziness.The woman leaned back on the sofa in the living room."Why does my head feel so dizzy? What happened?" Angelica muttered while holding her head that wouldn't stop aching.Angelica closed her eyes, and within seconds, she opened them again.She kept repeating this motion."Where is he? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"Angelica kept looking outside, staring at the main door of her house that still showed no signs of someone coming.A long sigh escaped her mouth, wondering where that person could be.Angelica grabbed her phone again, turning it on to see if there might be a message sent by that man.But there was nothing there. Even the last seen status of that man showed the time of their last connected call."I told him he needed to come back soon, but why hasn't he arrived yet?" Angelica mumbled, who knows for how many times.As Angelica straightened up, intending to wait for that man on her
