A trace of dark light flashed past Brad’s eyes, which were focused on the document. At an angle where Susan couldn’t see, he curved his lips slightly.

In reality, when their car passed the intersection, that car behind had immediately turned left and drove in the opposite direction.

Susan was unaware of this. When the car stopped in front of the Yates’ family, she sat in the car and looked left and right. When she didn’t see the car following them, she got out of the car. Before leaving, she bent down and waved goodbye to Brad. “Mr. Quin, thank you for bringing me home!”

Brad, who was sitting in the car, looked at how the woman was bending down to say goodbye. Her eyes were smiling and her lips were shallow. The street lights cast a dim yellow light on her body. Fine hair could be faintly seen on her smooth face. She was both charming and exquisite.

The bottoms of his eyes were as deep as the twilight sky. He was dazzled and his sight was full of the beautiful Susan.

He thought of how to punish her, who had forgotten about him, in the future.

Susan was stunned by Brad’s gaze and her heart inexplicably raced.

She licked her dry lips. Without waiting for the man to say anything, she hurriedly slammed the car door.

An inexplicable emotion was churning in her heart.

It was strange and special.

Susan walked to the carved wrought iron gate. When she was about to push the door open and enter, a black Porsche slowly drove over under the tree-lined road in the distance.

The car stopped in front of the gate. Through the rolled-down car windows, John looked at the man in the backseat in surprise. “Brad?”

Susan was speechless.

Her face hurt!

During the day, she had an argument with her family over the marriage. At night, her biological father saw her marriage partner sending her home. Even a TV drama wouldn’t play such a storyline!

After John alighted from the car, Brad appeared.

Susan stood in the middle and smiled awkwardly.

“Sorry to have disturbed, John!”

Brad shook hands with John like a gentleman. Under the street lights, his figure was tall and upright. His legs were long and slender under the tailored suit pants. Susan couldn’t see the boastful manner and light-heartedness of many men on him. His gestures showed demeanor and his temperament was calm and restrained. He was like aged fine wine exuding the power and prestige that had been accumulated over the years.

Her gaze was stuck on this man unknowingly.

At this time, John smiled and returned his handshake. The moment he released his hand, there were a few more wrinkles in the corners of his smiling eyes. He looked at Susan, who was in a daze, thoughtfully and felt relieved.

“Since you’re here, have a cup of tea before leaving. Coincidentally, there are a few changes to be made to the groundbreaking plan. We can discuss!”

Brad frowned slightly. After thinking for a while, he nodded calmly. “Alright!”

Susan, who had regained her senses, was speechless.

Upon knowing Brad’s arrival, Madam Lincoln, who was doing a facial mask, urged her servant to remove the essence from her face. She changed into a presentable dress and took care of things in the living room.

John and Brad were discussing business in the study room. Susan was ordered to sit in the living room and wait quietly.

The gorgeous crystal chandelier cast a warm light and a faint shadow on Susan’s slightly trembling eyelashes. She sat by the side and looked at Madam Lincoln who was busy instructing servants in the kitchen. She laughed in self-mockery.

She had never seen Madam Lincoln treat outsiders so seriously.

“Don’t sit there in a daze. Send this pot of tea to the study room.”

Madam Lincoln greeted her in the living room with a tea tray, as if she could not see Susan’s indifferent look.

Susan nodded calmly. “Oh.”

After taking the tea tray, Susan turned around and wanted to leave. Madam Lincoln instructed her repeatedly, “Be careful.”
