Chapter 214 Suddenly Appearing

Alice had plans tonight, and with her strict family, her curfew was super early.

So Bryan had no shot at taking her home.

Alice's family driver had to pick her up, and she had to fib about watching a movie with friends when she got home.

Emily glanced at Bryan, who was staring at Alice's disappearing figure, and couldn't help but tease him. "Alright, I get it, you can't stand being apart from her. You two have it rough, sneaking around like this. By the way, why is Alice's family so strict? She grew up abroad, so I thought her parents would be more laid-back and not interfere with your relationship."

Seeing Bryan's face get serious, Emily realized she might've overstepped.

They'd been having such a good chat that she forgot to watch her words.

Emily quickly changed the subject, and Bryan just smiled. "Alright, let's talk on the way. I'm heading to the bar, so I can give you a lift."

With that, Bryan glanced in the direction Alice had left.

Bryan hoped that one day he could openly visit Alice's parents as her boyfriend. But he also knew their relationship was way more complicated than he thought.

Emily asked, "What? You're not home?"

Abigail replied, "Yeah, I got called to work overtime out of town. Emily, can you believe how awful our company is? Anyway, do you have the keys? You'll have to be home alone tonight!"

Abigail's reminder on the phone made Emily realize she'd been so busy lately that her keys were still at the Smith Mansion.

Emily said, "Alright, no problem. You stay safe out there. I'll hang up now."
