Brian stood in front of the window, overlooking the garden below.

An inner turmoil was going on inside him.

The room was dark and the only light came from the lit cigarette held between his fingers.

His jaws were clenched together making his aura look more domineering.

His mind darted to the thought of that woman he had made his wife.

He couldn't understand how she could affect his heart so much.

When he saw her at the coffee shop, getting cozy with that man, something unusual shifted inside him.

It surprised him more when she allowed that man to hold her hand and touch her hair.

The way she smiled at him, it made Brian unreasonably angry.

His phone rang suddenly.

He glanced at the screen before answering the call.

"Jaime, how is it going? Have you got any information?"

"Mr.Clark, his name is Toby Brown, the Deputy CEO of Smith Group," Jaime answered.

Brian had asked him to investigate this particular person without telling him the reason.

Jaime was slightly confused.

They had no business relationship with the Smith Group.Why was Brian interested in the Smith Group's Deputy CEO? 

"Toby Brown? The Deputy CEO of Smith Group." Brian repeated Jaime's words.

His eyes narrowed at the mention of Toby's name and position.

Toby.

Wasn't this the same man she was mentioning that night? Apparently she missed him so much.

 "Yes, he joined the Smith Group three years ago.After his engagement with Molly Smith a year ago, he had been promoted to the Deputy CEO post a month ago.Toby is close to the Woodsen family as well." Jaime informed Brian.

It wasn't difficult for him to investigate and find everything about Toby.

He thought, perhaps, it was because of the Woodsen family, and Toby's relationship with them that Brian asked him to find out details about Toby.

Brian fell silent.
