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

Brian didn't respond.He didn't give a damn about what people thought of him and Linda.He was the only person who had a say in his personal matters.

"Brian, you should know that Linda is a woman who do things with a clear purpose.Besides..." Anna paused.

She abhorred the idea of seeing Brian so mesmerized by Linda and listening to her words.

"Anna, I thought you knew me well," he said lightly.

When he was with Ayla in the past, Anna always remembered her place and knew how to behave.

But now, she intervened in his decisions and listened to rumors and hearsays.

Hearing his response put her mind at ease.

If she really knew him well, she should know what kind of person he was by now.

And even if he wanted a woman, he'd be able to handle it well.

He would never let himself be the topic of rumors.

Just like it was in Ayla's case, he was indifferent to her within the premises of the company.

However, he allowed her to live in his apartment just so he could keep her by his side.

At the dinner party, Brian and Anna walked into the venue, arm-in-arm.

As soon as they entered, they ran into Toby and Molly.

It wasn't surprising, considering that they all lived in the same city.

Moments later, Molly found the chance to speak to Brian.

"Mr.Clark, what a coincidence! Oh, so Miss Anna's with you today instead? I thought it would be Miss Woodsen!"

Molly approached Brian and then turned her gaze towards Anna who was at the other side of the hall.

"You seem to know a lot about me, Mrs.Brown," he sneered.

It seemed that they had already found out that Ayla had returned, but that didn't surprise him.

Last time, she saw Ayla talking to Hayden at the airport, so it wasn't strange that she had met with Toby upon her return.

"Besides knowing that Ayla is back, I know nothing else.Mr.Clark, you should go out with her! Even though two years had passed, Miss Woodsen is still your wife, isn't she?"
