"Yes, I''ve been thinking about it for months. I''ve thought it through," Grace replied.

    Nelson shook his head with a self-deprecating smile. "It seems that women''s words can''t be trusted."

    He looked at her affectionately. "You know, I''ve been waiting for you. Are you willing toe to work at Francis Group? I can give you everything you want."

    Brian narrowed his eyes. "Nelson, stop being disgusting here. Has anyone ever told you that it''s perverted to look at someone else''s wife like this?"

    Nelson smiled nonchntly. "Someone else''s wife? She''s not married to you yet. Don''t be happy too early."

    Grace turned to look at the man beside her. She didn''t want him to be angry here, so she said, "Brian, let''s go first."

    Brian nodded and held her hand as they got into the car.

    *****

    Brian drove with one hand on the steering wheel and the other holding her hand. "I''ve thought about it. If I want to rise quickly andpete with Nelson, I''d better not start a newpany now. Therefore, I''ve decided to invest in Top Group, increase its scale, and expand its business."

    Grace nodded in agreement.

    Brian continued, "I can tell that Grandpa just wants to teach me a lesson. He doesn''t mean to hand Francis Group over to Nelson. As for the shareholders left behind at Francis Group, they have a say when making big decisions.

    "However, Nelson is too ambitious. It''s hard to guarantee he won''t cause trouble during this period. Therefore, I''ll rush to take him down quickly."

    Grace nodded.

    The car stopped at the red light. Brian turned to look at her. "But I want to do something first."

    His gaze was so intense that Grace''s heart skipped a beat. "What is it?"

    "I want to get engaged to you first."

    Grace was stunned.

    The corners of Brian''s mouth curled up as he started the car again.

    By the time the car drove home, Grace was still in shock.

    "What? Could it be that you want to be a ygirl?" Brian looked at her and smiled.

    Grace stuttered, "What do you mean by being a ygirl?"

    "You agreed to get back together with me, but you didn''t get engaged to me. Is it something ygirls do? Those ygirls only date but don''t get married."

    Grace swallowed her saliva, pushed open the car door, and ran to the elevator like she was fleeing.

    As soon as she got home, she saw Jasmine.

    Jasmine knew what Casper had done at thepany that day. She was so worried that she was about to cry.

    When she saw Brian return, she wanted to say something but hesitated.

    However, the expression on Brian''s face didn''t look bad. He seemed to be quite happy.

    Jasmine looked at him worriedly.

    Brian saw his mother''s hesitant expression and smiled. "Mom, you can ask whatever you want."

    Jasmine hesitated before sitting beside him and asking, "Did your grandfather chase you out of Francis Group?"

    "Yep." Brian nodded nonchntly.

    "He''s

    us to chan old fool." Jasmine was

    So

    that her voice choked.

    "What are you going to do

    kel.ne

    now?

    you lose your job?"

    swo

    Brian couldn''t help butugh when he heard his mother''s words. "From the looks

    of it, that''s the case."

    "You''re stillughing? Is there anything to be happy about?"

    Grace came downstairs after changing her clothes. Brian''s gazended on her, but he said to

    Jasmine, "Mom, choose a good day. getting engaged to Grace."

    When Jasmine heard his words, she forgot to cry. "Huh?"
