Saoirse didn't say anything.
Tears appeared in her beautiful blue eyes, which hid her sadness inside.
Why did she have to put on an act for William?
It was because she wanted him to think that she was doing fine here. She wanted William to leave this place without any worries.
Having stayed in Agaphen City for so long, her waywardness and stupidity had caused William too much trouble.
What had happened between them had been a mistake. Now that William had found his happiness, she did not need to disturb him anymore.
Saoirse tried very hard to put on a smile.
William was right. Everything was in the past.
Finally, everything had passed.
"Brantlee." Saoirse didn't respond to Brantlee's question. Instead, she said, "Right now, many people are saying that I've become ugly. Do you think so too?"
She stared at Brantlee with her beautiful blue eyes.
Brantlee immediately shook his head. "Of course not. In my eyes, you're still as beautiful as ever."
Flashes of memories appeared in Brantlee's mind as he spoke.
He laughed. "Saoirse, the first time I saw you, you were still so young." He gestured with his hand. "You had two braids, and your eyes were big and round. The first time I saw you, I thought, how could there be such a beautiful girl in this world? This thought has always been rooted in my mind. Up until now, I still wonder how there is such a beautiful girl in this world."
Brantlee wasn't good at words. These were the most moving words he had ever said.
After she heard Brantlee's words, Saoirse's eyes sparkled.
When Natalie was still groggy that morning, she had received a phone call, which was enough to scare her awake.
Bowie and Francia had been arrested!
They had been arrested for visiting a brothel!
Natalie had thought that those two had gone to work as prostitutes. She was puzzled. She had already bought a large villa for them, and Tobias had even given them money. There was no reason for these two women to be prostitutes.
Later, when the police told her what happened, she then knew that they weren't trying to be prostitutes. They were caught visiting the brothel instead.
Natalie was stunned as if she was struck by lightning.
She had always thought that only men would visit a brothel, but she didn't expect that women could do it too.
After she was shocked for a good ten minutes, Natalie got out of bed.
She had to bail Francia and Bowie out.
Even though the two of them had done such a shameful thing, they were still James' relatives.
Natalie went out sneakily.
It was hard for her to tell anyone about this matter. She didn't even have the guts to say it to Cecilia or even Tobias.
After all, those women are her relatives, and her relatives had been caught visiting a brothel. It was embarrassing to mention it to anyone.
When Natalie was about to leave, Cecilia even asked her where she was going.
Natalie hesitated. "Mom, I need to go out for a while."
Cecilia thought that she was going to see Selina.
"Natalie, are you going to Selina's place? Selina hasn't visited for a long time. You should go to her place to see how she's doing. I'm afraid that something happened to her, but I dare not go because I don't want to ruin her mood."
Natalie said in a weak voice, "Mom, I'm not going to Selina's place. I have something else to do."
