Despite being yelled at, Brandon was delighted when Sasha finally talked to him.
“What did you say?” Sasha thought she was hearing things. “Me? Your girlfriend? Is something wrong with you?”
Brandon craned over and asked seriously, “I think I’m perfectly fine, but just to be sure, why don’t you check on me?”
Sasha gritted his teeth and scoffed. “I think something’s definitely wrong with your brain! Have you forgotten who I am?”
“You’re Sebastian’s ex-spouse, aren’t you? It’s fine! I don’t really care! After all, few of us are aware of your identity!”
Brandon continued righteously, “Only close family friends and relatives were present back when both of you were married. Literally, no outsider knows of your identity. Otherwise, why would others consider Xandra to be Mrs. Hayes, the spouse of Hayes Corporation’s president?”
Crouching in front of the flowers, colors drained from Sasha’s face because Brandon’s unintentional remark had provoked her.
He’s right; who else is aware of my relationship with Sebastian? I have gotten married to him without anyone’s knowledge back then!
Although he has no intention to file for divorce with me, no one can possibly figure out I’m his legal spouse.
As Sasha gave Brandon’s word a thought, a dull expression could be seen on her face.
Suddenly, Brandon broke the silence, interrupting her train of thought.
“In short, it won’t be much of a trouble for you to do me the favor! Moreover, they will be there as well! Don’t you want to know what they are up to during the party?”
Sasha lifted her head and looked at Brandon. “Who are you talking about?”
“Who else could it be? Your ex-spouse and his fiancée! Wait! Are you saying you’re not aware of this?”
The seemingly unintentional question startled Sasha. She didn’t expect Sebastian would attend the birthday party with Xandra.
Wendy told me he had no interest in the party!
Why made him change his mind to go with Xandra? Wait! Xandra is abroad, isn’t she? Since when has she made her way back?
Sasha refused to believe Brandon’s words. “Are you sure you’re not mistaken? Sebastian has never mentioned anything about the party at all. Besides, Xandra isn’t around. Who told you about this?”
“Duh? Who else could it be? My mother!”
Brandon was equally surprised and had his fair shares of doubts. He couldn’t figure out the reason Sasha was kept in the dark when she lived under the same roof with Sebastian.
Although the Emmanuel family was quite a distance away, they had gotten their hands on the information ever since a few days ago.
Oh my God! Please tell me she’s not being deceived by the scum again! When will this foolish woman learn her lesson? Does she want to take a trip to hell again?
