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

Chapter 166: One Step Ahead Of Him 

Brian knew that Ayla only said half the truth.

Was she hiding something from him? Or maybe, she really didn't know who it was, so she didn't want to jump to any conclusions.

"Is that all?" he asked in a cold voice.

Ayla nodded.

"What else is there to say? What do you think happened?"

She knew that Brian might not believe her, but she really had no clue who followed her into the warehouse and knocked her unconscious.

Even if she had her suspicions, she still had no evidence to prove it.

Brian could tell that Ayla didn't want to say anything else, so he decided not to probe further.

Besides, she could do what she wanted.

Even if he wanted to interfere, she probably wouldn't let him.

"Fine.Just get some rest!"

When Brian was about to leave the ward, Ayla stopped her.

"Mr.Clark, how's the fashion show?"

He stopped in his tracks, and said, "How are you still in the mood to care about the event?"

Based on the tone of his voice, he was definitely unhappy about it, possibly angry.

"I..."

If Ayla hadn't gone to find the missing dress because she cared so much about the fashion show, this might not have happened.

"Well, the fashion show is over.You don't have to think about it anymore.Just focus on your recovery! Let's talk about it when you're feeling better."

With that, Brian left Ayla alone in the ward.

She got up, turned her gaze towards the window and then glanced at the time.It was already afternoon.

The fashion show was over.

She recalled everything that happened in the dressing room.

The dress did go missing.

Perhaps someone did it on purpose because she had already double-checked everything in the morning.

But after she left the room for a while, one of the dresses went missing.
