Chapter 31:

Was Brian implying that he would do anything to make Tracy happy? Rachel’s heart sank. His affection had never been aimed at her.

Silence enveloped the private room as a gentle, soothing melody filled the air.

Tracy had chosen a love song that held significant meaning for Rachel. She had once begged Brian to sing this song with her, but each request had been denied. Yet, this time, at Tracy’s request, he agreed without hesitation.

Everyone seemed captivated by their flawless delivery of the song.

However, Rachel’s thoughts were elsewhere—she needed a drink. She was already on her third beer from the table.

Just then, her hand was gently restrained.

Looking concerned, Trey said, “Samira asked me to keep an eye on your drinking.”

“I just need something to soothe my nerves,” Rachel protested, quickly downing two more beers.

Unable to dissuade her, Trey ended up joining her, and they polished off a few more bottles.

As the music faded, Brian’s intense stare landed on them, his fists clenched tightly.

Rachel had certainly made an impression.

Brian fumed inwardly at the sight of her drinking with another man. He believed he had been too lenient with her. Tonight, he was determined to set things straight and show her the importance of proper conduct.

The applause and compliments from the audience filled the room.

“Such talent! Mr. White not only excels in business, but also captures hearts with his singing.”
