Brian held Anna close to his body as he looked at Hayden and his wife, then tuned to Toby and his wife.

There was no more need for him to hide anything.

Besides, he wanted to see how they would react.

"Something bad happened to Lala."

He didn't have to explicitly say what happened to her.

Those words were enough to verify the rumors that had been spreading recently.

After all, Hayden was an experienced and well- informed man.

It didn't even faze him when he heard what Brian said.

On the other hand, Toby was shocked.

Something had actually happened to Lala.

The last time he saw her, she was with Lucas.

But when he heard Brian confirm the news so calmly, it confused him.

Looking at Toby, Molly asked, "Are you worried about her?"

It had been a long time since they had last seen each other.

However, when Brian mentioned Ayla out of the blue, it felt like a stone was weighing down her chest.

Toby shook his head.

"No, I'm not."

He wanted to forget what must forget, but he was having a hard time doing that.

After the brief conversation, Anna and Brian went to their seats to sit down.

"Brian, it seems that Mr.Smith cares about Miss Woodsen a lot."

It never occurred to her that so many people cared about Ayla.

"Don't mention her anymore."

It wasn't because Brian had moved on from her; it was because he didn't want to hear her name anymore.

Ayla was the thorn in his heart that he could never remove.

Anna nodded in response.

Although she understood that it didn't mean Brian had moved on from Ayla, she would rather have his attention all to herself.

If that woman was no longer there, she would be able to stay by his side forever.

Soon, the charity auction started.

Brian sat there, bidding for every item at a high price.

Looking at him, Hayden noticed the strange changes in his behavior.

Holding his hand, Anna said, "Brian, stop bidding."

To her, it was obvious what he was thinking.
