Bryson was still watching Audrey while he was talking with someone. Seeing that Audrey was chatting
pleasantly with a young man, he suddenly turned serious and cold.
He quickly ended the conversation and headed to Audrey. But Alma walked over and stopped him.
"Mr. Bryson."
"Miss Alma, what's wrong?" Bryson said impatiently.
Alma was happy and confused. Happy because Bryson knew her surname. Confused because she
had no idea why he suddenly became angry.
She followed Bryson's gaze and was surprised.
"Well, I think it's Mr. Duran."
"Mr. Duran?"
"Yes!" Alma smiled and said, "He is the elder brother of Jessica Duran, the host of this party. As the
eldest son of the Durans, he is the vice president of the Duran Corporation, a young and promising
man. He just asked me about Elliana when I was sitting with her. It seemed he has taken a fancy to
her."
But Alma found that Bryson's expression had darkened after she said this.
Seeing that Bryson was silent, she added,
"Mr. Bryson, don't worry. Jessica is my friend, so I know something about her brother. He doesn't have
any bad hobbies. He even didn't have a girlfriend or something. And his circle and relationships are
clean. I think he and Elliana are made for each other. Mr. Bryson, what do you think?"
Alma didn't know why Bryson looked angrier.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt this moment, the lights dimmed. The party started.
Jessica went up to the stage to give some opening remarks, mostly centering on welcoming words.
Then Jessica smiled and said,
"Please allow me to declare that the party starts. And now my elder brother Adrian, and Ms. Audrey will
bring you the opening dancing. Welcome."
Just as Jessica finished speaking, a spotlight shone on Adrian and Audrey in the corner. Adrian stood
up elegantly, bowed to Audrey, and stretched his hand towards her.
Everyone was watching, but Audrey's mind was spinning with confusion.
She hadn't promised Duran to dance with him. More importantly, it was the opening dance, which was
too eye-catching.
Now that the spotlight was on them. Audrey felt that she had to finish it.
If she refused Adrian in front of so many people, he would be embarrassed. She had to manage a
smile and give her hand to Adrian.
Adrian beamed as he held Audrey's hand and walked to the center of the hall.
As they went over, they brushed past Bryson. But the spotlight on Audrey was so strong that she
couldn't see people around her. So she didn't see him and his cold gaze.
But when she passed by Bryson, she felt a wave of chilling, trembling
When Adrian and Audrey stood in the center of the hall, a piece of melodious violin music followed.
Duran held Audrey's hand and gently put his other hand on her waist. One of Audrey's hands was on
Duran's shoulder, acting in a way just like what she had learned.
It was ballroom dancing. Soon after the beginning, Audrey made the wrong footsteps. She stepped on
Adrian's foot. Adrian frowned because of the pain.
Audrey apologized guiltily, "Mr. Duran, I'm sorry."
Adrian smiled to comfort her.
"It doesn't matter."
But after a few more steps, Audrey turned around and stepped on his foot again with her high heels.
Adrian stiffened this time.
"I'm sorry!"
Adrian didn't know what to say.
"It doesn't matter."
Despite the pain, he had to continue the dance because he asked to dance with her.
Soon others also went dancing.
Bryson, who was beside Alma, suddenly spoke.
"You said you wanted to dance with me."
Alma looked at Bryson in surprise, "Mr. Bryson, you said ... you couldn't dance."
But Bryson had pulled her to the dance floor.
Alma was so happy that Bryson was hugging her, and dancing with her. She was surprised that he
danced very well.
"Mr. Bryson, you're good at dancing..."
But just as she finished speaking and was spinning outwards, Bryson let go of her waist. She lost her
balance and fell over.
Seeing someone falling, Adrian supported her, a knee-jerk reaction.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe dance floor was filled with many people. Audrey felt dizzy about it. Before she could react, an iron
hand suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into an embrace.
When Audrey's gaze met his, she found that it was Bryson.
"It's you."
"What? You want to continue dancing with that man?" Bryson suppressed his anger and asked under
his breath.
Soon Bryson had brought Audrey to the other side of the dance floor.
Audrey was panic to see the anger in Bryson's eyes and find his iron hand was grasping her waist
tightly. So she stepped on the back of Bryson's foot out of fear. Bryson frowned.
"I'm sorry!" Audrey apologized nervously.
Bryson's face darkened, "Focus."
"Okay!"
Under Bryson's demands, Audrey held his hand tightly, with her other hand on his shoulder. She tried
to focus on the dance steps. Fortunately, she did not make any mistakes after that. She gradually
became engaged, her beautiful figure moving under Bryson's hand.
Alma and Adrian had to dance with each other as they both couldn't find their partners.
After the dance, Audrey and Bryson sat down at a round table.
Adrian and Alma were livid. After all, their partners disappeared from the dance pool as they danced.
Seeing that Audrey and Bryson were at their seats, Adrian and Alma came and sat down beside them.
Adrian wasn't happy, but he didn't want to show it because he wanted to leave Audrey a good
impression. Instead, he apologized to Audrey, "Ms. Audrey, I'm really sorry. The situation was
complicated. You were not there when I turned around."
Audrey didn't know what to say.
