If Brian wanted to fall in love with anyone, it should be her. She looked like Grace the most!
The next day, Whitney Cooper came to Valda Thellerâs studio. After seeing Valda Theller, she said, âDo you have a minute? Thereâs something I wanted to talk to you about, Miss Theller.â
âYouâ¦â Valda Theller looked at her suspiciously. At first glance, she mistook her for Grace, but she could see their differences on closer inspection.
Grace was now pregnant and resting at home, but the woman in front of her was slim and had a flat belly.
âIâm Whitney Cooper, Brianâs secretary abroad. Thereâs something about Brian I wish to tell you. Donât you want to find out?â said Whitney Cooper.
Valda Theller frowned. âSheâs addressing Brian by his first name. Is she close to Brian?â
Jealousy spread in her heart as she thought of it.
âNo thanks, Iâll ask Brian myself if thereâs anything I want to know about him. I donât need others to tell me. Miss Cooper, please leave if thereâs nothing else,â said Valda Theller.
âSo youâve asked Brian about Grace yourself?â Whitney Cooper asked suddenly.
Valda Theller froze, and the expression on her face changed. What she knew about Grace and Brian was from online, other people, or her speculation. She had never asked him herself.
Grace was like a taboo topic between them. It was an elephant in the room, but she could never ask about it.
Whitney Cooper smiled at this. âIt seems youâve never asked about it. In that case, I can tell you some information. If you donât want to go outside with me, I can say it here.â
Valda Theller frowned. âI said Iâll ask myself if I want to know.â
Whitney Cooper walked casually to the bookshelf nearby. She flipped through the comics on the bookshelf and said, âYou must be smug these days. Brian spent 100 million dollars on your portrait. Do you think he loves you? How funny. Do you know how deep his feelings for Grace are?â
Valda Theller pressed her lips tightly. âOf course, I know. How can I not know?â
âGrace likes purple gowns, so he never lets the women around him wear purple gowns. The food he likes is also food that Grace likes. He has Graceâs photos on his phone, so no one is allowed to touch his phone. Heâll also remember everything Grace has said to him for the rest of his life.â
Whitney Cooper said and turned to look at Valda Theller. âI donât think youâve worn a purple gown in front of him before, nor have you looked through his phone.â
ââ¦â Valda Theller quivered subtly. âWhat are you trying to say? Are you trying to sow discord to ruin our relationship?â
Whitney Cooper said, âI just want you to recognize reality. Donât you think I look like Grace? Because of my face, he didnât hesitate to save me when I was in trouble and made me his private secretary.â
Whitney Cooper said with a smile on her lips as if she was recalling the good old days. âHe used to fall into a trance when he looked at me. He would even⦠hug me and tell me about his past and obsession with Grace, which he probably never told you about!â
Whitney Cooper seemed to be provoking her with every word she said. Valda Theller only felt her chest being stuffy.
âSo? What are you trying to say?â Valda Theller took a deep breath and said, not wanting to show weakness in front of this woman. âIf you think youâll cause any conflict between Brian and me and affect our relationship by saying this, itâs just wishful thinking.â
âI want to clarify that you donât look like Grace! He wonât love you at all! I donât know why Brian wants people to think youâre his girlfriend, but I think there must be a reason for this. Donât you want to know?â Whitney Cooper said. All she had to do today was plant a seed of doubt.
