Greta, feeling slighted by the whole scene, quickly lied, saying, "I was just trying to be nice to Ethan's mother for Brenna's sake." By the tBrenna and Thiago wrapped up their visit to the lot, morning had given way to noon. Hunger nudged them to grab lunch before heading back to the company.
As the car pulled up to the company entrance, Brenna spotted a familiar figure standing near the building-Alec. He was dressed in a security guard's uniform. For a split second, she doubted herself. Yet, as she squinted through the glass, there was no mistaking it. That man was truly Alec.
Alec wasted no treaching Brenna's car. He pulled the door open, and his eyes widened in shock as he saw Brenna. "Brenna! Mr. Mitchell offeredfifteen thousand a month to work here. He said taxi driving wearsdown and putsaround troublemakers. He toldit'd be safer if I worked here." But Brenna felt there was more to it. Why hadn't Ethan mentioned this to her before?

Brenna didn't even try to mask her irritation. She understood exactly what Alec meant, and the implication left her feeling nothing but distaste.
"That's not true at all. Honest work is something to be proud of, and supporting yourself through your own effort is worth respect." Without another word, she strode into the building, leaving Alec behind.
Alec's forced grin faded away, his expression showing a trace of malice. m

Disgust flashed across Brenna's face. "I saw him at the mall the other day. He actually dropped to his knees in front of me. You heard about that, didn't you?" Chapter 941 Tip: You can use left, right keyboard keys to browse between chapters.
