Deep Love of The Perfect Bride novel Chapter 10

Brian didn't expect that he'd bump into that stupid woman while entering the villa. So, he didn't even help her when she stumbled back and fell on her bum. His eyes turned cold as he watched her with pursed lips.

Ayla hissed in pain before raising her eyes and met with Brian's icy glare. She gulped and apologized immediately, "I'm sorry, I didn't notice you coming."

"Who are you going to meet in such a hurry?" Brian sneered at her making Ayla flinch. Of course, she couldn't get lucky all the time, and the devil had to come at this time just to prove that.

"I was just going to school." Ayla whined as she got up staggering slightly. She refrained herself from saying anything else, because she knew he would not believe her anyway.

According to Brian, everything she said was just an excuse.

"Really?" Obviously, Brian didn't believe her.

Ayla took a glance at her watch. She'd be late today. Her eyes shifted back to Brian when she noticed the red mark on his neck.

Observing it carefully, she realized it was a lipstick mark. That meant, he was with another woman last night. That was the reason why he didn't return home. But, she didn't care about it.

In fact, she'd be relieved if he was with other women. He'd let her live in peace if he had other women.

Even if it was a hopeless wish and literally would be a dream, she wanted it to happen.

After that encounter, Ayl a left without saying anything further. Lyle was already waiting for her with the car. She hopped in before the car drove away. Sitting in the car, she looked out of the window and pondered on the possibilities she could get away from Brian. Although he let her go to school, he seemed to be angry with her. Her father only owed money to Brian. So, if she could earn money and pay him back, she'd have her freedom again.

When their car reached a crossing of the high road, another car broke the traffic signal and ran across their car with a reckless speed. Lyle slammed the brake hurriedly, causing her to jump forward. However, when Ayl a raised her eyes and looked ahead, her eyes landed on the big LED screen at the roadside. It was broadcasting financial news and Toby's face was on it.

Ayl a watched the news carefully. Her eyes gleamed with excitement when she learned he had become the Executive Director of Smith Group. He went to abroad, after their last meeting. She never received the news of his return. Had he forgotten her already? Why hadn't he come to take her away yet?

The thought made Ayla very sad. She couldn't even focus on studies and remained absentminded all day long. Would she ever get to see him again?

She couldn't wait to meet Toby. So, she decided to go to his office by herself. After the school was over, she walked out of the school's side door to avoid Lyle and left quietly. When she finally arrived in front of Smith Group's office building, she stopped. Suddenly she lacked courage to enter the building.

She stood there in a daze staring at the building until it was dark. She couldn't do it. Her chest felt heavy as she turned to leave.

However, she had to stop when she heard the automatic door opening and a group of people came out. She turned immediately and located the familiar face among them. It was Toby and he was holding a beautiful and elegant woman in his arm. Ayla's heart dropped when she realized he was dating another woman.

Her lips trembled at the sight and two streams of tears rolled down her face. She watched them getting into an expensive car together.
