âYou must be hungry. Try and see if you like these. Iâll get something else if you donât.â Brianâs voice rang in her ears.
âThese will do,â Valda Theller said hurriedly.
Brian helped her cut a large steak into pieces before moving the plate in front of her.
âAh, thank you,â she said subconsciously.
âWhy are you thanking me? Itâs what Iâm supposed to do since Iâm your boyfriend,â he said, lifting his fingers and gently tucking the locks of hair over her cheek behind her ear.
Valda Thellerâs face reddened slightly. She knew everything was false, but her heart was still beating fast.
Valda Theller was already 70 to 80 percent full after eating the food. While she was eating, Brian was like the perfect boyfriend. He carefully told her how to eat something she had never eaten before and even bent over to fix her skirt when she got up after she finished eatingâ¦
Everything was like Cinderellaâs dream.
After finishing the meal, Brian said to Grace and Jason, âExcuse me, I have to bring Valda to meet some friends.â
âOkay, weâll talk next time,â Grace said with a laugh.
After Brian walked away with Valda Theller, Jason looked at the smile on Graceâs lips and said, âAre you in a good mood?â
Grace said, âYeah. Brian has found someone he loves now. Iâm happy for him, and I have a feeling that Valda is also a good woman.â
The manâs beautiful peach blossom eyes glimmered slightly as Jason smiled. âYeah, itâs indeed something worth feeling happy for.â

âLetâs go home earlier. Youâre pregnant and need an early rest,â
said Jason.
âOkay, but⦠Honey, Iâd like to have another slice of the cake earlier. Itâs delicious,â said Grace.
Speaking of which, she had been having a sweet tooth for the past two months. Perhaps the little one she was carrying was a girl.
Having two sons and two daughters would be like having the best of both worlds.
âAlright, Iâll get it for you,â said Jason, his eyes full of love for her.
He wanted nothing but the best for the woman he could love with everything he had.
Valda Theller accompanied Brian to meet some people, and Brian also drank a lot of wine with them.
Valda Theller thought Brian had no choice but drink because he needed to socialize at first, but she later found that he seemed to be drinking on purpose. It was as if⦠he wanted to get drunk.
âBrian, youâve had a lot to drink,â Valda Theller could not help but remind.
He looked at her and chuckled. âI can hold my liquor. This is nothing.â
She stared at him. He was smiling, but his eyes looked as if they were about to cry.
âIs it because of⦠Grace?â When she was eating just now, she could see that Grace was happy and Jason took great care of
