Chapter 701
It was only after hearing that he liked purple that she seemed to have changed her mind about the purple gown.
‘Is… She trying to distance herself from me?’
The thought flashed through Brian’s mind, but it made him feel uncomfortable.
Each of the fitting rooms here was separate.
Brian and Stella Lindsay were led by the staff to one of the VIP dressing rooms.
When Stella Lindsay appeared in front of Brian wearing the same gown that Grace had just worn, Brian only glanced at her and said, “Not bad.”
Stella Lindsay also knew that she would not look as good in this gown as Grace.
Especially when she wore it after Grace had worn it. It just seemed like a crude imitation, but she could not even get another gown.
“Brian, do you think I shouldn’t have fought with Grace over a gown?” Stella Lindsay looked aggrieved. “I… I just wanted to wear a purple dress and make you happy because I remember you telling me when you were little that you like the color purple.”
After a pause, Stella Lindsay continued saying, “My marriage didn’t go well all these years. I couldn’t stop thinking about our childhood, thinking about how you said you would come to find me, thinking that maybe there was someone out there who could save me from that upsetting marriage… And here

was married?
‘I won’t accept this. How can I? I’ve finally managed to get near him and live a good life.
