MainNovelChapter 1094:
“Abuse? That can’t be right. Sure, Hector has a rough past, but he’s always acted like a gentleman in our
professional meetings. | never would have guessed he would abuse anyone.” The news stunned Darwin. He
couldn’t connect the well-mannered Hector he knew with the idea of someone capable of domestic violence.
Brenna asked, “Your company works with Hector?”
“We've got a few joint projects. One night, his assistant got too drunk and started spilling things, but | don’t
know much else,” Darwin replied, watching Brenna closely for any sign she was worried about Ethan. If she truly
cared about Ethan, she would be concerned that his company was under attack.
Brenna stayed composed, showing not even a hint of worry. That told Darwin her feelings for Ethan weren't
deep. Maybe she was drawn to Ethan's wealth and status. Still, wealth wasn’t everything. Darwin figured he
might still have a shot with her. After all, he cfrom a wealthy family as well.
“I'll reach out to Hector and ask him about the matter. Maybe there's sother conflict between Ethan and

Thiago caught Darwin's look and grinned. “Don’t look so down. You're a good friend to Brenna, and that counts
for something. If there's one thing | know about Brenna, it’s that she values real friends.”
Brenna gave a small nod and said to Darwin, “You're a decent guy. I'm glad we're friends.”
Darwin couldn't decide whether to feel happy about it or not, but he believed that this was better than not being
Brenna’s friend at all.
Thiago tried to lighten the mood. “Don’t take it so hard. Brenna doesn’t have many friends, but you've become
one. That counts for something.”
“You are really blunt, you know that?” Darwin shot Thiago a look.
“Glad you picked up on that. | try to keep things real. By the way, what projects are you working on with
Hector?” Thiago asked.
After Darwin, Brenna, and Thiago finished their meal and stepped outside, Darwin reached into his jacket and
produced a small, elegantly wrapped box, holding it out to Brenna.

“I bought this limited-edition perfwhile | was in Valport last week. | thought you'd like it.”
Brenna eyed the box—a coveted perffrom her favorite brand, a new limited edition she had wanted to buy
recently but hadn’t been able to get.
“Thank you,” she said, accepting it with a note of surprise. Apparently, Darwin had paid close attention to what
she liked.
The fact that he knew his way around luxury brands also didn’t escape her. Clearly, he had a luxurious lifestyle.
