Chapter 1050
Stella felt jealous when she saw Brian’s eyes chasing Grace’s
back. “I wonder what’s going on between Grace and Jason? Although they’ve broken up, I heard they’re still in
touch with
each other.”
The latter part was just an offhand remark by Stella intended
to make Brian dislike Grace.
However, once she said so, Brian turned his head and looked
at her with a cold, sharp look.

“Stella, you should know that Grace is the one I love. I don’t
want you to talk bad about her in front of me anymore,” Brian said coldly.
Stella stammered, “I… I wasn’t. I’m just-”
“You just what?” There was no emotion in those dark phoenix eyes. Accompanied with that cold voice, there

all we have is the friendship we had when we were little.”
Stella could only feel her cheeks burning. His words were like a slap in her face. Even though he made it subtle,

Standing behind Stella, the top manager’s eyes twinkled when he heard what Brian said.

Stella than their childhood friendship, yet Stella likes to brag
about how close she is with Young Master Hart!
Sometimes, the more attention one attracted, the more likely one would hit rock bottom. If she did provoke the
crown prince. until there was no affection left, she would probably be back
to square one.
The top manager looked at Stella coldly with a mixture of mockery and disdain in his eyes. Even though some
people had the opportunity and resources, their vision and limitations doomed them to achieve nothing!
