The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

In the club, sitting in the private room on the second floor, Brian overlooked the crowd on the first floor through the glass window.

"Anna, you have managed this place so well."

Anna handed a glass of wine to Brian.

"Mr.Clark, how can I not since it's your order? How can I be careless in taking care of this place?"

Brian had many entertainment clubs, hotels and other subsidiaries running under his name.

He ran them all by himself, and Anna really could understand the pressure he put up with all the time.

"Anna, are you tired?"

As Anna sat beside him, Brian pulled her close by her waist.

"If you feel tired, you can ask Jaime to help you."

Anna smiled.

"Don't worry, Mr.Clark.I'm fine.You saved my life.I'm willing and very glad to do everything for you."

 Brian nodded and gulped down the wine in the glass.

"You follow me everywhere.If you keep doing that, you can't relax for yourself."

Anna was the only woman who followed him everywhere.

"I don't care about that, Mr.Clark.I don't care about anything as long as you are with me.Please don't drive me away from yourself."

Anna was not afraid of anything because she had faced many difficulties in the past.

Her condition had been so bad that she used to live on the streets.

Her life depended on beggary.

She still remembered that one time when she was so hungry that she went to a small shop to steal a piece of bread.

The shopkeeper caught her red-handed and beat her to death.

It was Brian who found her on the streets almost dead.

He brought her to his home and treated her back to health.

Since then, she always stayed by his side.

He was the most important person in her life.

"How can I drive you away?"

The reason why Brian saved her back then was because there was a glint of tenacity in her eyes, which was similar to his.
