Hes here too?
She did not expect to bump into him again so soon. It seemed like such a
small world.
Grace looked up, and a figure caught
her eye.
Brian was wearing an all-white casual outfit that was less formal than his usual
attire and more laid-back.
Under the lamps light, the handsome face showed a touch of indifference and
estrangement. Even if he was
surrounded by the crowd, there was an
invisible barrier that made him look like
he was somewhat out of place from the
commotion around him.
It was as if he had put up a barrier in his world and would never allow anyone to
enter.
The one who was able to break
through this barrier was only the little girl who went through thick and thin with him Someone she used to be!
However Graces eyes fell on the
woman who had walked into the room
while holding onto Brians arm.
It was Stella who had taken over her
place. She was now standing next to Brian, a beaming smile plastered across
her face.
Watching Stella and Brian standing next to each other, Grace suddenly had an
indescribable feeling.
However, then she told herself she had nothing to worry about. She was the one who had decided to let go of that fact and bury her childhood memory forever,
right?
Since she had repeatedly denied being the little girl in front of Brian, there was no reason to think about it now.
Suddenly, those dark phoenix eyes
looked in her direction and met her gaze.
For a split second, Grace felt a pang in her heart. The pair of phoenix eyes that were looking at her now was so cold as if he was looking at a stranger instead.
The words he had said before immediately rang in her head. I wont have any more affection for you from
now on.
Therefore, now she was only a stranger to him. The little girl who had gone through thick and thin with him and
carried him down the hill when he was
younger was Stella!
Stella, standing next to Brian, followed
Brians eyes and saw Grace standing beside the pool table. She immediately froze and felt a little uneasy.
Why is Grace here? Why is she
standing there like that? Wheres Jason? Hes not with Grace?

If I had known, I wouldnt have wanted to come here today! Stella regretted it.
She had insisted on Brian bringing her to the party today for her to broaden her horizons, thinking she could quickly fit into high society.
It also created the illusion that she was Brians girlfriend. Even though Brian doesnt acknowledge me as his
girlfriend, as long as everyone around
me thinks so, wouldnt I have a chance to
get to the top?
She just did not expect Grace to be here.
At the sight of Grace, Stella could not help feeling a surge of guilt!
She worried that her false identity would be exposed one day.
Young Master Gu, its a pleasure to have you here today. I heard that youre good at pool. I wonder if youd like to play one round with me, said Curtis Row as he stepped forward, eager to find a topic to
talk about.
