Chapter 15
Sammy quickly shook his head. “I was just joking, Ms. Schneider, please be generous… Don’t be angry with me…”
Saying that, Sammy even started to slap himself.
Briana looked at him with an icy face and no emotion in her eyes.
Only when Sammy’s face reddened did Briana calmly retract her foot, turn around, and leave.
Sammy’s originally scared eyes instantly turned sinister, staring at Briana’s back.
He would not forget what had happened today, and he would definitely not let Briana go.
Seeing Briana leave, Maxim turned around and went upstairs.
His expression was indifferent, but he was suspicious of Briana.
Perhaps it was time to ask Rayan to investigate Briana.
All Maxim had known about Briana before was that she was the Schneider family’s daughter who had been lost for sixteen years and was Kiley’s twin sister.
They had been married for three years, and she had done her best to take care of him, not much different from an ordinary woman, but today she really amazed him.
Brycen was also shocked, turning his head to Maxim and saying, “Maxim, just now Briana beat up Sammy. Sammy is vindictive, so he will definitely make trouble for Briana. Are you not going to meddle?”
Maxim looked cool. “She didn’t ask for my help, so why should I meddle?”
“She’s your wife anyway.”
Maxim’s face turned even colder as he said frostily, “Maybe not after a while.”
A flash of surprise flashed in Brycen’s eyes. “You’re planning on divorcing Briana and getting back together with Kiley?”
Maxim didn’t say anything. Brycen took it as an admission and continued, “You’ve liked Kiley from the beginning. Divorcing will be good for both you and Briana.”
“Briana brought up the divorce.”
Brycen was really astonished. After all, the two had been married for three years. Everyone could see how Briana loved Maxim. Brycen could not believe Briana had proposed divorce.
“Are you sure? Then what are you hesitating about? Could it be that she asked for too much money?”
Maxim was getting more and more annoyed by Brycen’s words and coldly cast him a glance. “Are you idle? Did you settle that actress’s matter?”
Brycen was speechless.
The two walked into the private room. Oliver and Tyrone were already waiting there.
Seeing Maxim’s gloomy face, Oliver asked, “Maxim, why do you look so upset?”
Maxim didn’t say anything, while Brycen behind him said with a teasing face, “Because Briana wants to divorce him, so don’t ask.”
Oliver froze for a moment and then said, “One should be happy during meals. Don’t think about unhappy things.”
They were not optimistic about Maxim and Briana’s marriage, especially when Kiley was back in the country.
No one noticed that Tyrone, who had been keeping his eyes downcast silently, was unconsciously tightening his grip on the water glass.
After they finished eating, Oliver and Brycen suggested going to Crown Club for drinks.
“You guys go ahead. I have things to do tonight.”
Maxim left, and Tyrone then said he had something to do at home.
Oliver looked at Brycen. “They all have things to do. How about we go to a bar for a drink?”
Brycen smiled and shook his head. “I’m meeting my girlfriend. Go by yourself.”
Oliver fell silent.
After a few seconds, he looked at Brycen. “You’re really fast. Your girlfriend is not an actress this time, is she?”
“No. I’ll bring her over to you guys next time.”
“Are you serious?”
“I’ve always been serious about my relationships.”
Oliver rolled his eyes. “Alright, just go. I’m going home. That’s too boring!”
***
As Maxim returned to the villa, it was already past nine in the evening.
When he walked into the villa, he saw Briana carrying a bag with the intention of leaving.
She had already changed into sportswear, and her long hair was tied into a ponytail. She looked brisk and pretty.
