Chapter 1018 Have You Never LikedA sudden knock on the door startled Kim and Audrey who were talking in the lounge. Kim exchanged a glance with Audrey before turning to open the door.
Audrey thought it was a staff member who cto inform them to be ready. She didn't expect to see Kim being stunned.
"Kim, who's it?" She walked up with doubt and froze when she saw the person standing in front of the door.
Kim turned to Audrey and muttered in a soft voice, "Speaking of the devil." Audrey examined Brian, who was standing there, carefully. She had not seen him for a long tand he seemed to have lost weight.
He had sunken cheeks and there was beard on his face that had always been clean.

Audrey frowned as she looked at him. "What brought you here?" Brian stood in the doorway, looking at Audrey who stood across from him. He was emotional but he forcibly suppressed the feeling.
The corners of his lips curled up as he smiled calmly.
"Do you not want to see me?" Seeing them standing at the door, Kim was worried that they would be photographed by the passer-by.
He asked Brian to cinside, which Audrey didn't disagree.
Brian followed Audrey into the room after she turned and walked in.
Kim invited Brian to sit down passionately.
Audrey glanced at Kim and said to him, "Kim, helpcheck what twill the event start and what to expect next." The flow of the event had been checked several times and it was impossible that Audrey didn't know. Kim understood that Audrey was trying to send him away.
He hesitantly threw Audrey a glance and noticed how firm she was from her eyes. He could only leave the lounge first for them to have personal space.
After Kim left; Audrey sized Brian up before asking slowly, "The jewelry is from you, right? And the bodyguard is one of your men too, isn't it?" "Ha!" Brian hooked his lips and smiled. The smile on his face was cold. "Did Triston tell you these?" Audrey answered in a low voice, “It doesn't matter who told me. Are you going to admit it?" "Fine!" Brian nodded. "I admit it." "But did it bother you? Or did I cause you trouble?" Audrey had to admit that Brian's help did mean a lot to her during this period. She wouldn't know what would happen if he didn't lend her a helping hand the other day.
However, she hated being manipulated.
It was because Tristan knew this that he never arranged someone to be by her side.

When he saw the jewelry at the auction, he felt that it would lookn good on Audrey, and the auctioned it off without hesitation. The jewelry was beautiful and it was her favorite style.
But she would get it herself if she liked it. She didn't want others to buy it for her.
"I don't like it. Please take it back." Audrey answered without hesitation, making the smile on Brian's face go stiff.
He remained silent for a while before speaking again.
"Do you hatethat much?"
Audrey didn't answer. She dared not to look into Brian's eyes and could only say "The event is about to start soon. I have to go get ready now."
Just as she was about to walk out of the door, Brian su called out to her. Audrey looked and heard him ask seriously, "Have you never likedbefore?" X
