Chapter 1102: Nelson Is Your Childhood Friend, Brandon


    Chapter 1102: Nelson is Your Childhood Friend, Brandon


    The following day, Brandon and Sandy held their engagement ceremony. Many people were invited.


    There were Brandon''s business partners with whom he had excellent rtions in the market, along


    with some friends he knew from the business world. There were also rtives and friends from the


    Hawkins family. Sandy didn''t invite many people from her side. She hardly invited anyone from her


    circle of acquaintances. It''s not that Sandy didn''t have close friends in her circle; she just didn''t want to


    invite anyone. Therefore, most of the attendees were Brandon''s friends.


    Sandy stood by Brandon''s side, greeting one person after another. When they reached Nelson''s table,


    Sandy immediately noticed that someone was missing. Since there were others around, Sandy didn''t


    want to ask Nelson directly. After exchanging greetings and heading towards another table, Sandy


    finally lowered her voice and asked Brandon, "Brandon, where''s Jim?"


    Upon hearing Sandy''s question, Brandon''s expression changed slightly, and he replied in a low voice,


    "I don''t know. I''ll ask Nelson when I get the chance."


    Sandy epted Brandon''s response and didn''t press the matter further. The day passed quickly and


    before she knew it, it was over. Sandy was tired, and she naturally forgot about Nelson''s absence.


    It wasn''t until the next day, when she saw the headline on the Viteto news, that Sandy remembered


    what she had forgotten the day before. "Is this true?" Sandy read the news three times before thrusting


    her phone in front of Brandon.


    Brandon nced at it and remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "It''s true."


    "But weren''t they fine yesterday?"


    Brandon rubbed his forehead and replied, "I don''t have all the details, but there must have been some


    kind of unavoidable situation on Jim''s side that led to..."


    "Brandon, Nelson is your childhood friend, your friend. Without Nelson, you wouldn''t even know Jim,


    right?"


    Before Brandon could finish his sentence, Sandy interrupted him. Brandon opened his mouth as if he


    wanted to say something, but Sandy didn''t give him the chance. She stood up, took the phone, and


    dered, "I''m going out."


    "Sandy!"


    Brandon wanted to stop her, but he was a step toote. Sandy had already left the room, closed the


    door, and gone downstairs.


    Unable to chase after her, Brandon maintained a distance and followed Sandy downstairs. In the living


    room downstairs, Ste, Yanis, Bonnie, and Maya were ying with Mles. When they saw Sandy and


    Brandoning down, Ste was the first to speak, "Weren''t you supposed to take a nap? Why are


    you back so soon?"


    Sandy''s expression remainedposed. "I remembered that I have something to do."


    Sandy grabbed her car keys from the side. "Brandon, I''ll be back in about an hour. Don''t follow me."


    This statement was Sandy giving Brandon some space, reminding him not to follow her. Brandon


    looked at Sandy for a few seconds before attempting to speak, but Sandy didn''t wait for him to


    respond. She turned and left the room.


    "Sandy!"


    Brandon wanted to stop her but was too slow. Sandy had already left the room, closed the door, and

    gone downstairs and out of the Hawkins family''s front gate. Brandon hesitated, unsure whether he


    should inform Sandy, but she had just said she wasn''t going to see Nelson. Then, who was she going


    to see?


    Could it be Jim?


    But then again, Sandy and Jim had barely exchanged ten sentences. Her rtionship with Nelson was


    much stronger. Plus, with the news online, she wouldn''t go to see Jim.


    Considering all this, Brandon decided to go check on Nelson. As for Sandy, she drove straight to Jim''s


    photography studio. She parked her car at the entrance and called Jim''s phone.


    After what felt like a long time, Jim finally answered. "Hello, this is Unar Photography."


    "Mr. Bart, it''s me," Sandy said softly.


    Jim paused for a moment upon recognizing Sandy''s voice. "Miss Thompson, is there something you


    need?"


    "Can we meet and talk? I''m right outside your photography studio."


    Jim didn''t respond immediately, and just as Sandy thought he might have hung up, his voice came


    through the phone, "Come upstairs, to the rooftop."
