Chapter 234:

“Ewing, what brings you here? I had no idea you were around. I was just resting. These days, my mood has been quite foul, and I’ve lost my temper a few times. I hope you’re not offended,” Bria explained, her tone light but her eyes scanning the servants with a piercing intensity.

It seemed Bria had no plan of directing her anger at Kallie. Kallie exhaled a quiet sigh of relief and retreated further into the crowd.

Observing Kallie’s cautious move, Ewing couldn’t quite grasp it. He had intended to intervene on her behalf, yet her demeanor disappointed him. She seemed resigned, almost too submissive.

Assuming Kallie was a pushover based on her reaction, Ewing gave up the idea of defending her. Ewing turned to Bria and said coolly, “I just came to talk about our grandpa’s upcoming birthday celebration. Our grandpa is about to turn 70 years old, but sadly, most of our relatives and friends are overseas. Our grandpa and I agree that there’s no need for extravagance. Simplicity will suffice. You take charge of the birthday party since our grandpa and I need to track down our cousin and won’t have time to manage it.”

Bria was glad to have the opportunity to take charge of the celebration party. That could be her moment to show off and earn attention. Yet, Bria couldn’t shake off a touch of reluctance as she envisioned the efforts she needed to put in. She bit her lip and murmured, “Perhaps I shouldn’t have returned.”

Ewing’s displeased look, Bria quickly adjusted her demeanor. “But I get it. You’re doing this to locate our cousin. Don’t worry about the party.
