Chapter 896 After leaving Prospectus Technology, Brandon headed straight to the office. Since he could no longer rely on Damon, he decided to focus on improving himself from that point on. The day passed quickly, with Brandon spending most of his time in meetings or reviewing documents. It wasn't until Charlie reminded him about a client meeting in the evening that he realized it was almost 6:00 p.m. He set the file down and cleared his throat. "Got it. Please send me the time and address on my phone." "Okay, Mr. Sumner," Charlie replied. Once Charlie left, Brandon skimmed through more files.
When the time came, he got up to meet the client. By the end of the meeting, it was already past 8:00 p.m. He had just seen the client off and was about to head back when he noticed Valarie and a man laughing and chatting as they walked out of a nearby restaurant. His expression shifted slightly as he turned to look at them. They both seemed to notice him, glancing in his direction. When Valarie saw it was Brandon, her smile faded, but she quickly turned back to continue her conversation with the man, seemingly ignoring him.

Brandon walked up to them and overheard Valarie telling the man that they should get together for a meal some other time. His expression immediately hardened. Who was this man, and why hadn't he seen him before? "Valarie, who is this? You're not going to introduce me?" Brandon asked. Valarie briefly glanced at him before replying indifferently, "Seth Farlow, my senior from university.
He's in Saintornia on a business trip, and since we were nearby, we decided to have dinner together." She smiled at Seth and added, "Seth, this is my friend, Brandon Sumner." Hearing Valarie introduce him only as a friend made Brandon's face darken slightly. He stepped forward, pulled Valarie into an embrace, and extended his hand toward Seth. "Hello, Mr. Farlow. I'm Valarie's boyfriend, Brandon," he said. Valarie frowned but stayed silent, not wanting to embarrass him in front of Seth. Seth gave them both a meaningful look. It seemed there was some tension between the two.
He smiled and shook hands with Brandon. "Hello, I'm Seth." After the handshake, Brandon continued. "Valarie didn't mention you were in town, or else I would've invited you to dinner with us." "No need for that, Mr. Sumner," Seth replied politely. "It's the least I could do. You're quite a gentleman wonder, do you have a girlfriend? I know someone who's single-" Brandon .net> woontent "Brandon!" Valarie interrupted, her voice a little irritated. He was meeting Seth for the first time and was ready asking about his relationship status?
fo FindNovel.net Seth smiled and helped defuse the awkwardness. "Valarie, it's fine. Mr. Sumner, I do have a fiancée, but I appreciate your kindness." At those words, Brandon immediately backed off, and his smile became more genuine. "Seth, I apologize for being too forward. If you're not in a hurry, I can drive you back Let me know where you're staying he offered. Valarie quickly rejected him, "No need. I drove here." "Well, I'll drive your car then," Brandon insisted. Valarie almost laughed at his persistence. "Brandon, we're not on the same route.
You should head back now." "Of course we are! Any route could take me back to my place," Brandon claimed. Valarie was rendered speechless. Seth raised an eyebrow and chuckled. "Valarie, since your boyfriend is offering, let him drive us both." Valarie didn't want to make things awkward in front of Seth, so she reluctantly agreed. "Fine." On the way back, Brandon chatted with Seth, who shared many stories from their university days. By the time Seth was about to get out of the car, Brandon seemed a bit reluctant to say goodbye.
