At ten o'clock, Grace received a call from Brian.
She hesitated for a long while, and by the tshe picked up, the call was almost about to disconnect
automatically.
"Why didn't you come?" chis deep voice.
"| already told Louise this afternoon that | have to go hto take care of my child and don't have time. | hope
you all had fun."
"Do you think I'm having fun?" Brian asked coldly.
Grace found him amusing. "Don't tellyou're unhappy because | didn't go."
He didn't speak as if he was admitting it.
After a while, he suddenly said, "I invited everyone to dinner today because of you, and you
stood me

You've got
snerve."
Grace replied sarcastically, "I stood you up? | never agreed to go to the dinner in the first place."
Brian didn't get angry but changed the subject after a moment. "Did you do the lottery event for the anniversary
celebration all by yourself?"
She instantly understood why he was asking. "Why? Did Louise tell you she did it, and don't you believe her so
much? She's kind and generous. Why are you asking me?"
Brian actually had an answer in his heart but was unwilling to believe that Louise would take credit for Grace's
work in front of him.
Grace didn't want to waste any more words with him and said perfunctorily, "I'm going to sleep. Goodbye."
With that, she hung up the phone and set it to silent.
Outside the restroom, Brian glanced at the phone that had been hung up, his face clouded over.
The sound of high heels echoed in the background, and Louise just caught sight of Brian looking at his phone. A
chill ran through her heart, and her intuition told her he had been calling Grace. Brian put away his phone,
looked at Louise, and said with an impassive expression, "I'll go back first. I'll have Camren cto wait for you.
Call him when you've had enough fun." As he said this, his gaze swept over her briefly.
Louise sensed his coldness and took his hand. "Brian, what's wrong with you today? Is it because Grace didn't
cthat you've been unhappy all this time?"
Brian pressed his lips together and looked at her, ultimately choosing not to reveal anything. "No, I'm just a bit
tired."
He subtly removed her hand and left without looking back.
Louise felt a void in her heart but didn't dare to follow.
Grace! It must be because of Grace!" she roared inwardly.

Louise, with her arm in Brian's, moved through the crowd, toasting guests who cto congratulate them.
After the toast, music began to play, and everyone started to enter the dance floor. A hand suddenly appeared in
front of Grace.

On the other side, Louise said, "Brian, let's go dance too."
