It wasn't an overstatement to describe Brennan's looks as dashing and breathtaking.

However, for Ariana, liandsome looks meant nothing. Nothing could rein her in like a single word from William.

At that moment, Brennan stood frozen in place and removed his sunglasses. His phone vibrated again with an incoming call from Evelyn.

"I'm downstairs at Block A," Brennan replied.

It wasn't long before Evelyn walked out of the building

"Was that Ariana just now?"

Brennan had met Ariana before. In their social circle, most people with similar family backgrounds had grown up together.

The Lowells and the Torreys were on par back then, so Brennan and Ariana had played together as kids. But Brennan hadn't seen Ariana again since he became a child star. He bet she probably didn't remember him either.

Evelyn's face darkened slightly as she mentioned Ariana. "She's been toying with me like I'm a fool. Brennan, I know you've always taken my side since we were kids. I had no choice but to make you come home this time."

"Did you have a fight with Brian?" Brennan could already sense the frustration in Evelyn's voice during their earlier call.

As a child, Evelyn was often bullied. After a scandal hit her family, other kids of their age avoided her. Brennan, however, had always stood up for her.

Evelyn tugged on Brennan's sleeve and said, "It's because of Ariana. She's been going against me this whole time. Brennan, help me. You're the only one I can count on now."

Hearing this, Brennan fell silent for a moment.

At the same time, Ariana had already reached the sixth floor. She couldn't fathom why the office of a senior lecturer had to be on such a high floor. Was it to ensure the school elevators wouldn't break down?

Suddenly, Ariana stopped in her tracks.

A memory of the man in white from earlier flashed across her mind.

Wait a minute! She thought that man had seemed familiar,

Ariana suddenly regretted not stopping to confirm whether or not it was really him. She considered going back down, but William's voice boomed from above.

He was already in the stairwell on the fifth floor. Seeing that Ariana was about to turn back, he adjusted his glasses and said, "Get up here. I need to ask you something

Since William had already come down to meet her, Ariana had no choice but to follow him back up. But the image of Brennan kept replaying in her mind.

In her previous life, Brennan had been steadfastly by Evelyn's side.

Everyone in their circle knew how Brian and Victor would go to any lengths to vie for Evelyn's affection. But Brennan, the silent protector, was rarely acknowledged.

It wasn't after Brian and Evelyn broke up because of her, and Evelyn went overseas with Victor, that Ariana learned of the Best Actor's feelings for Evelyn.

At the time, Brennan had canceled all his engagements just to fly back home and give Brian a sound

beating. That incident caused a stir in their social circle. Rumors flew about how Brennan had gotten into

a fight with his former best friend Brian for Evelyn's sake.

Recalling that scene, Ariana couldn't help but shudder.

But that was supposed to happen three years later. Why had Brennan returned to the country this early in this life?
