Nyla looked at Valarie. “What do you mean, giving each other looks? Just eat. I made your favorite–spicy chicken.”

Valarie nodded. “Okay.”

As they ate, Damon glanced at Brandon. “When are you going back to the company?”

It had been nearly a month since Brandon left the Sumner Group. If he stayed away much longer, the people he had trained might start siding with someone else.

Brandon paused mid–bite, instinctively glancing at Valarie across the table. She didn’t even look his way.

After a brief silence, he lowered his gaze. “In a few days.”

“Alright.” Damon didn’t press the issue.

Brandon was the CEO of the Sumner Group. Damon couldn’t keep treating him like a subordinate.

Halfway through the meal, Brandon’s phone rang.

Seeing Jayden’s name on the screen, he frowned and ignored it. But the phone rang again. And again.

After declining multiple calls, he realized the others at the table were all looking at him.

He picked up the phone. “It might be urgent.”

Stepping aside, he answered in a low voice. “Jayden, I’m busy. Don’t call again—”

“Brandon, Michelle attempted suicide. She’s in the ER. The doctors said she lost a lot of blood… She might not make it,” Jayden

said.

Brandon let out a cold laugh. “She tried coercion, and when that didn’t work, she resorted to this? Whatever happens to her has nothing to do with me.”

Without another word, he hung up.

As he turned back, a text from Jayden came through.

Jayden: [I’m at Pinnacle Hospital. Come if you still have a conscience.]

Brandon’s grip tightened around his phone, his knuckles turning white.

After several seconds, he deleted the message, his face blank.

Even though he had no intention of going, he found himself losing his appetite.

Regardless of his feelings for Michelle, they had been friends for years. He didn’t love her, but as a friend, he had never wanted anything bad to happen to her.

After dinner, Valarie said goodbye to Nyla and Damon before heading out.

Just as she reached the door, her phone rang.

Seeing Stefan’s name on the screen, she was surprised.

Since the day they’d met, he had only ever contacted her through texts. This was the first time he had actually called.

She answered, and his anxious voice came through immediately. “Veevee, where are you right now?”

“I just had dinner at a friend’s house. What’s wrong?” Valarie asked.

“I need your help,” Stefan said.

As Brandon stepped out of the villa, he caught a glimpse of Valarie’s taillights flickering before her car disappeared into the night.

He let out a bitter laugh. She really didn’t want to be around him.

Just as he was about to leave, his phone rang again. This time, it was Yale.

“Brandon, I heard Michelle attempted suicide. She’s in the ER. Nolan and I are heading over. Are you coming?”

They all knew Michelle had done this because of him.

Brandon lowered his gaze. After a moment, he said, “I’m not going. Let me know if she makes it.”
