Chapter 220


    “Nothing happened. Since she did some things she shouldn’t have, naturally, she should bear the


    consequences,” Brian said carelessly as if he did not think it was a big deal at all.


    However, when Grace heard it, her heart jumped. Saying it this way… Had Emily been silenced? She


    might even have been forced out of show business.


    That would be the least of her punishments, she supposed.


    A wolf like Brian…he might take to more savage ways of correcting problems.


    It was the same concern she had with Jay. That he would use the power and force of his position as


    alpha, or the brutal strength of his pack to execute justice in the old ways.


    This human Emily had been forced from the spotlight by Brian. He had taken her livelihood away.


    From then on, she would no longer have luxuries to adorn herself and would have to live a in life.


    On this, how many would willingly choose inness? Especially someone who had experienced


    luxury before. She was afraid Emily Theller would not be able to withstand that kind ofmoner’s


    inness.


    “What, are you sympathetic to her?” Brian looked at the woman before his eyes and said, “That day,


    Emily was not courteous to you at all, though.”


    “I’m not sympathizing. I don’t think she would want my sympathy anyway,” Grace said. “You don’t have


    to treat me to a meal as an apology either. I need to catch the bus back to the city.”


    “I still want to treat you to a meal.” Brian said.


    Grace said indifferently, “Can it be that you want to use force to treat me to a meal?”


    “I don’t like to use force, but using it asionally isn’t bad either.” Brian pulled Grace’s hand as he


    spoke, taking big steps toward the parking lot.


    “Brian, what are you nning to do?” Grace yelled in a low voice.


    “Just want to have a meal with you,” he said casually.


    Was it really just to have a meal? If a man like him really wanted to find a woman to have a meal with,


    he would have plenty of women who would willingly apany him. There was absolutely no need for


    him to force her.


    Just as Grace was in doubt, the two of them had already arrived in front of Brian’s car.


    Brian opened the passenger seat door, but Grace said, “Mr. Hart, I really don’t have time to apany


    you for a meal. If I miss this thest bus, I won’t be able to return home tonight.”


    His ink-ck phoenix stayed fixed on her. “If you’re really unwilling to have this meal with me, I can


    guarantee that you definitely won’t be able to catch any buses tonight.”


    Grace choked. She knew Brian’s capabilities. If he really wanted to do this, it would not be hard.


    “Why must I have this meal with you?” she asked, puzzled. If this was just an apology for thest meal,


    it was too extreme.


    “Because I have some things to ask you,” he said.


    She looked at him dubiously. After considering it for a moment, she got into the passenger seat. If she

    really were to take this up with him at this time, it would not have much meaning for her.


    Besides, she had gone through three years of prison life. She knew a lot more now than back then.


    She knew that someone like him could easily change another’s destiny.


    Just like how he easily made Emily Theller vanish in show business. This man could vanish her from


    her pitiful existence too.


    She could not evenpare to Emily. She was only a sanitation service worker now. It was a lot easier


    to destroy her.


    For just an instant, Jason’s appearance shed through Grace’s mind.


    If… that day really came, would Jason be willing to lend her a helping hand?


    Heavens! What was she thinking!


    Grace inwardly mocked herself for the thought that urred to her just now.
