No expression could be seen on Brian''s face. When he heard Louise''sints, his expression did not change.


    Louise continued to make herself sound even more pitiful. "Actually, I don''t have to do the market research myself, but Miss Nova... Perhaps my rtionship with you made her feel ufortable, so she forced me to do the most difficult and tiring work... Brian, she''s actually trying to torture me and make me resign."


    Brian raised his eyebrows slightly. "So? What do you want?"


    Louise felt that she could not understand his thoughts. Brian was bing more and more unpredictable.


    She added, "I''ve always studied finance. I want to go to the Finance Department. I''mpletely qualified to work in the Finance Department. If I''m not under Miss Nova''s watch, her mood should be better." Brian looked at her thoughtfully for a while, then slowly nodded. "Okay, sure."


    Louise was delighted. "Really? That''s great! Thank you, Brian!"


    He lowered her eyelids slightly. Louise bit her lip and asked tentatively, "Brian, actually... you''re notpletely without feelings for me, are you?"


    Brian looked at her for a while but did not say anything.


    Louise did not dare to say anything else.


    Brian said, "I''ll send you back."


    "Alright!" Louise cried tears of joy.


    At night, as soon as Nova sat in the car, she smelled Louise''s perfume on Brian.


    Nova''s lips curled up silently. "You went to see your ex-fiancée today?"


    Brian frowned slightly and said calmly, "She fainted from heatstroke. I took her to the hospital."


    Nova said, "Should youpletely cut ties with your ex? It seems that Louise and you still are associated."


    Brian started the car without batting an eyelid. "So?"


    Nova crossed her arms and looked ahead. Her expression was slightly cold. "Couldn''t she have gone to the hospital herself if she fainted? Why did she have to call you? Even if she called you, can''t you get Camren to help her? What do you take me for?"


    Brian was silent for a moment, thenughed. "Are you jealous?"


    Nova said, "What else could it be?"


    "Since you care so much about me, let''s get married. You can rest assured after getting married," he suddenly said.


    Nova was stunned. After a while, she


    came back to her senses and snorted. "You have an ambiguous rtionship with your ex-girlfriend. How


    can you tell me that you want to get married? Brian, you''re not sincere at all! Forget it, let''s break up!"


    She waved her hand and deliberately pretended to be furious.


    Brian sneered. "I think breaking up is your ultimate goal. You flirted with me first. Now you want to break up? Dream on!"


    Nova was toozy to argue with him. The two of them each had their own thoughts and did not expose each other. They were silent the entire way home.


    When they got home, Nova


    deliberately pretended to have


    something on her mind, causing


    Jasmine to ask with concern, Nova,


    what''s wrong? Why are you so unhappy?"


    Nova looked at Jasmine and then at Brian. She lowered her head hesitantly.


    Jasmine immediately understood. "Did Brian bully you?" She used an affirmative tone.


    Nova lowered her head and thought for a moment before telling Jasmine what had happened.


    "Mom, do you think I''m being petty?" she asked Jasmine seriously.


    Jasmine looked at her son with a serious expression. Then, she looked at Nova gently.
