Brian stayed in bed with Eris.Once it became dark, he began to put on his clothes.When he was about
to leave, she stopped him.
"Brian, let's have dinner together before you leave."
"Actually, I have to sort something at the office." Eris clenched her fists.
'Does that mean he left in the middle of work? Only to ask about Wendy's scandals?' Eris gritted her
teeth in anger.
She lifted the quilt and got out of the bed.She picked up a coat and draped it over her shoulders.
Her face was full of tenderness when she said, "I'll see you off."
"No, thanks.That won't be necessary."
Once Brian got ready, he kissed Eris' forehead and said, "You must be tired.Why don't you stay and
rest?"
Eris blushed and said, "You are so annoying!"
Brian laughed and said, "Well, I'll work hard to earn enough money to support our family."
"Okay!"
Eris accompanied him to the door.
When Brian's figure disappeared, Eris' smile faded.She slammed the door, and in the next instant, the
expression on her face changed to hatred.
'Wendy! Wendy! Brian has the gall to threaten me because of you! In the past, he had never done that.
I knew it! You are a troublemaker! Damn it! It seems I have to find a way to make you disappear
completely.
After leaving the apartment, Brian didn't go to the company.
Instead of starting the engine, he looked at the night sky.
He took out his phone and scrolled through his contacts to search for Wendy's number.
As soon as he found it, he dialed without any hesitation.
This morning when he saw the news about Wendy, he got worried.So without thinking, he rushed out of
the house to confront Eris.But after listening to Eris, he suddenly realized something.He agreed with
Eris.
It would be a good thing if Wendy quit the entertainment industry.It would be good all around.It would
be even better for him.
'If Wendy quits, she won't have a job that gives her such big pay.She won't have the opportunity to
meet all those men from the rich upper class.She will feel that I'm the best among the men around
her.She will then choose to be with me"
Just thinking of Wendy's beautiful face and sexy figure, Brian got aroused.
He realized he had been stupid in the past.He had been in love with Wendy for three years, but he
hadn't had sex with her.
Now that he thought about it, he must have been out of his mind back then.He heard the phone ring at
the other end.
It rang several times, but no one answered.
Brian frowned.
"Why isn't she answering the phone? Could it be because of today's news?"
This could be the only explanation.
However, Brian didn't give up.He dialed again.The ringtone was loud.
Luke opened the door and called, "Ryan!"
He waved the mobile phone at Ryan and pointed at the unknown number on the screen.He gestured to
Ryan to come out and talk.
Ryan glanced at Wendy.
It had been only three minutes that she had closed her eyes and fallen asleep.
He frowned and marched out of the ward.He didn't want to wake her.
"Wendy is continuously getting calls from this number."
Wendy's old phone was soaked in water and was smashed into pieces.
It couldn't be used anymore.
Worried that it would be inconvenient for Wendy if she didn't have a phone, Ryan asked Luke to buy
her a new one.
Luke had just installed the SIM card.But before he could hand over the new phone to Wendy, the
phone started to ring.
Ryan casually glanced at the unknown number.
Thanks to his excellent photographic memory, he knew who the number belonged to.
In an instant, his eyes darkened.
"Ryan, who is it?" Luke asked curiously.
"Don't say a word."
"Okay!" Ryan answered the phone and put it on speaker.
"Wendy, you finally answered!" Luke was shocked.
'What the hell! Brian! Why is he calling Wendy?' Luke looked at Ryan.
As usual, Ryan did not reveal any emotion.Luke was speechless.
"Wendy, I saw the news today.I'm worried about you.Where are you? I'll come to see you right now!"
Ryan remained silent.
Brian thought that Wendy didn't say anything because she was in a bad mood.His voice was filled with
concern as he spoke.
"I know what happened this time hurts you a lot.But Eris is my fiancee.Forgive me for not taking your
side by clarifying everything in front of the media.But then I thought a lot about it.If you consider it, I
think this is not bad at all.The entertainment industry is so complicated.You are a young and beautiful
woman.It's easy for you to suffer in this industry.I personally think that you should take this opportunity
to quit.Wendy, I still say that this is all my fault.And as long as you want, I'm willing to support you all
your life."
Luke was shocked.
'Oh my God!What did he mean by that? Is he trying to say that he wants to keep Wendy as his
mistress?' Just as he was thinking about it, Brian's voice came over the phone again.
"Wendy, I know your current situation is not good.As long as you agree, the villa and the luxury car
under my name will be transferred to you."
It was just as Luke had doubted.
He had never expected that Brian still desired Wendy.
'How dare he want to keep Wendy as his mistress? Oh my God! The corridor turned chilly.Trembling,
Luke gulped and looked at Ryan.Under the dull light, Ryan stood tall.His shadow looked as if a ghost
was crawling out of hell.Hearing what Brian said, he sneered.
'Hell! What is he thinking?' Ryan's smile sent shivers down Luke's spine.
'Oh my God! When Ryan wears a cold face, he is not that angry.But when he smiles like that, someone
will surely be doomed!"
Under the light, Ryan looked like a beast that was staring at its prey.
"Wendy, are you listening to me?"
"Brian! How dare you!" Ryan scolded.
After a few seconds of silence, Brian asked in a trembling voice, "Uncle Ryan?"
"You already have a fiancee, yet you want to keep another girl as your mistress.Have you forgotten the
Oliver family's rules? Do you need help remembering them?"
"Uncle Ryan..."
"Your father is getting treatment in the US, but here you are flirting with girls.Do you even care for him?"
"Uncle Ryan, I..."
Ryan hung up the phone as he didn't want to talk to Brian anymore.He had a formidable look on his
face, "Luke!"
"Yes!" Luke tensed up.
"I heard that his company's stock price has risen again, "Ryan said.
"Oh, okay! Understood!" Luke said as he turned to leave.
"I'll do it right aways "Shit! From the time Ray disappeared, Wendy's attitude towards Ryan has been
distant and cold.Ryan is depressed.And now, Brian called and annoyed Ryan.Brian is asking for
trouble…”
