Falling for My Contractual Wife (Grace and Brian) novel Chapter 694

"It's me, Brian. Do you know where's Grace now?" The call went through and Brian asked in a deep voice.

"Mr. Francis, didn't Miss Nova tell you? She's having dinner with Mr. Zen from the Finpulse Group."

When Brian heard that name, his brow furrowed fiercely. "Is she alone?"

"Yes, we need to work overtime today and Miss Nova asked me to stay in the company. She went there alone..."

Before Alice could finish, Brian hung up the phone.

Grace returned to her seat in the private room, noticing her glass of wine refilled.

She pursed her lips, pretending not to see the wine. "Mr. Zen, let me tell you about our Wayne project."

"Hey, it's still early. Why talk business now? Come on, let's continue drinking. I feel a great connection with you like we've known each other for ages."

As Carter spoke, he picked up his glass and sat beside Grace.

"Here's to our friendship. Miss Sherman. I can invest in your project with just a word from you."

He leaned in and his breath smelling of smoke made Grace feel disgusted.

Since he didn't cross the line, Grace could only keep up appearances, smiling politely while holding her breath.

"Thank you, Mr. Zen."

After briefly clinking her glass with his, Grace leaned away and took a sip.

Carter smiled lecherously while staring at her chest.

As Grace met his gaze after drinking, seeing his greasy face almost made her vomit.

She picked up her fork, maintaining polite distance while saying. "Mr. Zen, don't just drink, perhaps we should eat something. Drinking without eating anything isn't advisable."
