Chapter 485 Jealousy
The restaurant manager’s expression changed abruptly. “I apologize. Mr. Russell. I will leave immediately so as not to disturb you.”
With those words, he obediently exited the room.
Brian had already guessed which of the two men was Emrys from the way the restaurant manager had looked at him. He shifted his gaze towards Emrys, carefully scrutinizing him.
After a moment, Brian let out a cold huff and said, “I thought Lady Lockwood was pure, but it seems she’s just another commoner infatuated with a handsome face!”
His mindset was indeed petty.
Dissatisfied with his own appearance, he didn’t dare pursue his goddess. However, when he saw her choose a man more
handsome than himself, he displayed an attitude of contempt, believing that this so–called goddess was nothing more than a shallow person..
On one hand, it was jealousy.
On the other hand, it was a sense of inferiority, an attempt to mask his inner feelings of inadequacy through such means.
This was indeed the case with Brian.

“Do you want to die, punk?”
Upon hearing these words, Brian’s expression instantly turned cold. He detested it when people commented on his appearance, as that was where he felt most self–conscious.
The other members of the Russell family actually looked quite normal, including Brian’s older brother, Cillian, who could be considered handsome. However, it seemed as if all the unfavorable genes of the entire family had concentrated themselves onto Brian.
Setting aside the fact that each of his facial features was distinctively unique, they were also clustered together, resembling a rectangular pancake with a few chia seeds sprinkled in the middle, leaving a large ring of empty space around.
Because of this face, Brian had committed quite a few brutal acts.
Once, there was a passerby who was unaware of Brian’s identity. Upon seeing his peculiar face, the passerby couldn’t help but make a few comments. As a result, Brian cut off his tongue on the spot.
This incident had alarmed the relevant authorities, who claimed they would seek justice for the victim. However, within a few days, Brian had nonchalantly walked free.
The Russell family merely made a symbolic gesture of compensating the victim.

Once again, a sword was ruthlessly thrust into Brian’s chest.
Emrys turned to look at Maximus, asking, “You rascal, don’t you have anything to say to your girlfriend?”
The moment Maximus entered and saw Shanise there, he was utterly infuriated. However, for reasons unknown, his agitation seemed to have lessened.
Perhaps because he thought she wasn’t worth it!
Getting angry over such a woman was completely unnecessary.
Maximus shook his head, feeling that anything he said now. would be a waste of time. However, it was Shanise who took the initiative to speak first. “Max, I’m sorry…”
There was no denying that Shanise cared about Maximus in her heart, but many things in life didn’t necessarily yield results.
