Chapter 169- the two people at fault.

Mr. Brown and Dave had been facing off for quite a while, and by almost midnight, Dave finally made a call to ask Laurent to come over.

After Laurent quickly tidied herself up, she went to the Browns' room. As soon as she opened the door, Mr. Brown's grim expression and displeasure made Laurent feel an unsettling premonition.

Sure enough, as she walked in, she saw the report about Dave and Clark on the table. In that instant, she realized exactly what had happened—Mr. Brown must have found out about her and Dave pretending to be a married couple.

Standing there, she glanced at Dave. He raised his hand and pulled her onto the sofa next to him, gripping her hand firmly with a protective instinct. Then he turned to Mr. Brown and said,

"Alright, she's here. If you have any questions, go ahead and ask."

Mr. Brown glanced at their intertwined hands before turning his gaze to Laurent.
