Chapter 1373

"If you really didn't want any misunderstandings between us, you wouldn't have met him today, especially behind my back," Brandon said coldly.

Brandon let out a sharp laugh. "Was it because I was away, or did you never plan to tell me in the first place?"

Valarie frowned. "Do you have to twist my words like that? You were on a business trip. If I told you, you'd just overthink it. That's why I kept quiet."

"So I should be grateful you were looking out for me, is that it?" Brandon shot back.

Brandon's expression was icy. "Keep driving. Don't worry about it."

"Brandon, I said I want to get out. Did you not hear me?" Valarie snapped.
