263 Courting Piper

They dated for five years until her mother found out and grew mad. Madam Caroline broke them apart and forced Brian out of school with the help of Feng Long.

To make it worse, when Piper entered the entertainment industry, she made Brian’s life a living hell because he still cared, until suddenly he stopped caring about her and instead, brought forth his hatred for her.

Brian became the dark horse in the industry and within a few years, he clinched the top actor spot, with the determination to show Feng Long and Piper what it means to be a bully.

Piper’s company wanted to use the relationship Brian and her shared in the past to take advantage of Brian and ride on his coattail but each time, he embarrasses her like never before.

Meanwhile, Brian was in a nearby booth and saw what happened. Seeing them leave without her, he snorted, “hussy” he whispered under his breath and sipped his drink.

“Excuse me, you said something?” The middle–aged man sitting opposite him asked.

“No, go on, please. He replied.

“Oh,” the man glanced at his clothes. Brian was still wearing his costume from the set and he looked at bit exhausted. “How about we postpone the meeting until you are less busy?”

“Don’t worry about my appearance, CEO Dang. I only have today to spare for this meeting. Unless your company can wait for three months.”

“Ah, that’s a long time. Today it is then. The man smiled.
