Chapter 832
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
âI like it very much. I didnât expect playing pool to be so interesting,â Stella said with a smile.
On the other hand, Curtis Row was busy sucking up to Brian and Stella. He was saying that Brian was a good coach and Stella was talented.
They seemed to have forgotten about Grace who was standing nearby.
Listening to what Stella had just said, Grace only found that her cousin was good at acting. She had never thought that her cousin could lie so well.
Brian probably already believed that her cousin was the little girl from his childhood.
Even if she did tell Brian the truth, he would probably take it as a joke.
The pain in her knees seemed to be getting more and more serious.
Grace frowned slightly with her lips pressed tightly. She was trying to ignore the pain in her knees and hold on.
Now, she could only wait until they had finished the round before getting Curtis Row to sign the document.
With her head lowered slightly, Grace did not notice that someone was glancing at her out of the corner of their phoenix eyes.
Brian knew that he should not care about Grace. They had made it clear to each other on the mountain that day.
She was not the one he was looking for, and everything in the past was just an illusion. The one he was looking for was Lifang, and the one he wanted to repay was also Lifang.
Besides, the person in Graceâs heart was Jason.
âHowever, why⦠is she here being bullied by someone like Curtis Row? Sheâs standing for so long just to get Curtis Rowâs signature?
âWhatâs going on here? Whereâs Jason?
Isnât he extremely protective of Grace?
But he just left her here to suffer?â
Doubt flashed through Brianâs mind. He watched as Graceâs delicate face looked even paler under the light. A thin layer of sweat had already broken out on her forehead, and her lips were pressed together in a straight line as if she was suppressing something.
Brian could not help frowning. âWhatâs going on with her? Is she feeling unwell?
However, he told himself the next moment, âDonât think about it. Whateverâs going on with her is Jasonâs business, not mine!â
âBrian, how do I hit this ball?â Stellaâs deliberately softened voice rang in his ears.
Brian glanced at Stella who was beside him and said, âIâll teach you.â
Grace did not know how long she had been on her feet. The pain in her knees was getting worse and worse. She was using every bit of her willpower to suppress the pain.
âNo one⦠will help me. Jason wonât help me, and neither will Brian!â
She remembered Brian saying to her when they parted on the hill. âGrace, once I put you down, Iâll be indifferent to whatever happens to you from now on.
âYeah. He said that, so heâs doing it now!â
After all, she was not the little girl who had saved him when he was a child. She was just a stranger to him.
Finally, when Curtis Row finished the first round with Brian, Grace almost stumbled forward to say, âMr. Yu, can I have your signature? We need to use this document tomorrow.â
âWho told you to come over?â Curtis Row had just finished one round and not even talked to Brian when he was disturbed by Grace. He immediately raised his hand and waved Grace away angrily.
