Betrayed Then Back For Blood (Briar Jennings) novel Chapter 62

Chapter 62

This was really thoughtful.

Briar, who wasn’t very hungry at first, suddenly felt her stomach rumble at the sight of all the delicious breakfast dishes. She immediately buried her head and began to eat heartily.

At that moment, Brandon, who had been waiting nearby, received a phone call. After just a few words from the caller, his expression turned gloomy.

Ashton took a sip of his coffee and glanced at Brandon. “What’s wrong?”

Brandon met Ashton’s gaze, first casting a discreet look at Briar, who was still eating with her head down, before briefly saying into the phone, “I’ll check with Ashton. Don’t make a move yet.”

Then, he walked over to Ashton, bent down, and tapped something on his phone before handing it to Ashton. “Ashton, our people just saw

Ashton took the phone, and his brows quickly furrowed, but his face remained unchanged, and even his tone stayed as calm as ever. “Investigate thoroughly and deal with it severely.”

However, the sternness in Ashton’s words and the shift in his aura were enough to make Briar look up in surprise. “Who’s trying to get on his bad side now?‘ she wondered.

But Briar didn’t say anything. Maybe it was something going on within Ashton’s company.

Brandon quickly replied, “Yes, Ashton. I’ll have Xavion take care of it right away.”

Briar knew Xavion; he was also one of Ashton’s trusted confidants, a top–notch hacker specializing in cybersecurity for the Wade Group. Many

of Ashton’s behind–the–scenes business dealings were handled by Xavion.

Briar didn’t pay much attention to this little incident and, after finishing her breakfast, slung her school bag over her shoulder and got ready

to head to school.

Ashton got up at the same time. “I’m heading to Shoneport University to take care of some business anyway. Let’s go together.”

His tone was so natural that Briar couldn’t find any reason to refuse. “Okay.”

‘That’s why Ashton stayed at Moonspring Estate last night,‘ she thought to herself.

It was only a few minutes‘ walk from Moonspring Estate to Shoneport University, so the two decided to go on foot.

The handsome and beautiful duo attracted attention wherever they went, especially since Ashton was quite famous.

Therefore, when Briar and Ashton arrived at the entrance of Shoneport University, many people threw excited glances at Ashton. Some even tried to sneakily take photos with their phones, but Brandon’s stern look stopped them in their tracks.

Even journalists dared not take candid photos of Ashton; these college students were really bold.

Briar keenly noticed that the looks people were giving her were a mix of shock and disdain.

Briar narrowed her eyes. She could understand their excitement; after all, Ashton’s presence always drew a crowd,

‘But why the disdain when they look at me? What are they looking down on me for? Do they think I’m not worthy of standing next to Ashton? Come on, I’m just his doctor. Are these people overthinking this?‘ she wondered.

Briar still felt that something must have happened, and it might have something to do with her.
