Chapter 128 Chapter 128: Doris felt a rush of thrill as she reviewed the material on her phone. She was about to send the photos to Brian when she paused. After a moment of thought, she decided to bribe another patron to send the media files to Brian.

On the other side, Brian was just about to clock off from work. It had been a long day, and he was exhausted. He rubbed his eyes when the message cthrough. As soon as he saw Rachel on the screen, his fatigue was replaced with fiery rage.

Before leaving, he had specifically told her not to drink. Yet, not only had she been drinking, but she had also gone clubbing! Brian called her, but her phone was on silent, and she didn't pick up. This only angered him further, to the point that his pen snapped in half in his death grip.

Tracy walked into his office just in tto see the upper half of the pen flick onto the desk. "Brian, don't you think you're overworking yourself? Letgive you a massage." “No thanks,” he replied, his tone cold and sharp, filled with undeniable irritation.

Tracy drew back, looking hurt and lost. She bit her lower lip before asking, "Did I do something wrong?" His tone softened, albeit just a little. "What makes you say that?" "You've been so distant withlately. If I did something wrong, just tell me. If you don't wantaround, I can leave and never bother you again. But please, don't be so cold to me." Without waiting for his response, she turned away and walked out.

A downpour had begun, the thick curtain of rain obscuring what was just a few feet ahead.

She hadn't brought an umbrella with her, nor had she driven over.

As the rain continued to pour, she gritted her teeth and ran straight into the night.

She was immediately drenched, of course, her hair plastered against her skull, her clothes clinging to her like a second skin. She painted a pitiful picture.

Stories live now on gVl"Get in," a voice suddenly called out.

A car had pulled up beside her, and she saw Brian's handsface through the window.

She bit her lip again, looking fragile and weak, but she stubbornly shook her head. "There's no need. Since you don't want to be aroundanyway, I won't bother you anymore. I'll be sure to resign tomorrow as well. I won't be a burden to you." Then she ran forward, as fast as she could under the rain, her frail, skinny legs struggling to keep up.

Just a moment later, a strong hand clasped around her wrist. She turned to see Brian standing behind her. He was just as soaked as she was, the rain dripping off his tailored suit. Even in such a state, he looked as dashing as ever.

Drops of rain slid down the sharp line of his jaw and over his over his Adam's apple.

He could easily pass for a model shooting a commercial in the rain. "Letgo!" she tried to shake him off, but he only tightened his grip.

"Get in the car."

"No, I don't want to impose..." She looked up at him with her big, wide big, w eyes. There was no xeling whether the drops streaming down her cheeks were tears or rain. Either way, she looked heartbreakingly delicate.

Brian finally relented. He stepped closer and spoke in a softer tone "I'm sorry. I was just in a bad mood. I promised you this job, Tracy. I won't let you resign, not like this."
