Everything else was fine, but… He wore a light purple scarf around his neck and a pair of gloves in the same color. These two accessories were a little strange to look at.
“Why do the scarf and gloves look a bit different from Jason’s usual style?” A journalist started whispering.
“It looks a bit rough, and it seems… a little old too. Is it a new vintage collection from some big brand?”
“The average man would have a hard time looking good in this light purple color! However, it seems to suit Jason.”
Jason did not like being photographed, but some reporters could not help but secretly photograph him.
When Jason’s bodyguard was about to walk over, he seemed to move his lips to say something. Immediately, the bodyguard stopped.
Once Jason was inside the venue, the reporter who took the candid photo gasped for breath.
He thought that the bodyguard was going to come up to him and ask him to delete the contents of his phone.
The moment Jason entered the venue, he naturally became the focus of attention. Almost immediately, many upper-class ladies tried their best to get close to him.
Patrick walked over to Jason to examine his friend’s outfit and said, “You look really sharp in your outfit. The scarf and gloves don’t look like your usual style, though.”
Jason raised his eyebrows. “What do you think my style is?”
‘Definitely not this woolen scarf and gloves. And in such a gentle color too!’ Patrick thought to himself.
“By the way, shall I introduce you to some of the great ladies of Emerald City?” Patrick suddenly said.
“No.” Jason coolly refused.
Patrick’s face turned bitter. “Let me introduce you, or I’ll be annoyed to death by these women.” They were the precious daughters of the Weiss family’s friends.
Patrick would have been their first choice, but the ladies completely ignored him and desperately wanted to meet Jason through him instead.
Patrick had no choice when it came to this matter. He was quite decent looking and was funny too, but women just did not like him. He could only say that there was something wrong with their eyes.
Jason rolled his eyes at Patrick. At the same time, Patrick heard some ladies around him puffing and muttering, “Oh my God, he even looks good rolling his eyes!”
Patrick had the sudden urge to spit blood. Jason had only rolled his eyes. Did those fangirls have to fawn over every little one of Jason’s move?
As Jason took off the gloves, Patrick seemed to realize something suddenly and grabbed the gloves from Jason’s hand.
“They seem to be hand-knitted. The knitting isn’t very nice, though.” Patrick commented on the gloves in confusion. “The wool looks like old wool. Did a store cheat you? How dare they sell you these gloves!”
“Who said I bought them?” Jason said lightly.
Patrick’s jaw dropped. If he did not buy it, then… “Someone else can’t have knitted them for you.”
Jason did not answer, but his expression showed that he tacitly agreed.
Patrick felt a little dizzy. Was it really from someone else? With Jason’s character, he would never wear this kind of stuff.
However, he was not only wearing them today, but he was wearing them in such a public place too.
Who the hell knitted them?! What kind of person made such… Uh, not so great scarf and gloves, but ones that Jason would wear?
Patrick’s mind flickered for a moment with rumors of the woman whom his friend had rescued from a nearby town during Chinese New Year’s Eve. He even left Old Master Reed behind.
He even alerted the local police for the woman’s sake.
Could it be the same woman?!
As he was lost in thought, Jason stretched out his hand to Patrick and said, “Give it back.”
“Ah!” Patrick came to his senses and was about to return the gloves to Jason when a voice rang. “Those gloves…”
“These are the gloves Jason is wearing today.” Patrick went first and said, “Or…”
However, before he could finish the last sentence, Brian said,
“They’re handmade.”
“Ah, you found out,” Patrick muttered.
Brian stared at the gloves, then looked at Jason in surprise.
“What is it? What’s wrong with the gloves?” Jason asked. He could feel Brian’s face changing as he looked at the gloves.
“Are they from someone else?” Brian asked.
“Yes.” Jason narrowed his eyes, and they gradually deepened as he looked at Brian. “Have you seen them before?”
Catching Jason’s eye, Brian frankly answered, “Yes.”
For a moment, there seemed to be a tension in the air.
Patrick, who was on the side, could not help but yell, “What are you talking about? What have you seen or not seen? By the way, Brian, why didn’t you bring your new girlfriend over today? I heard she was throwing her weight around on set today and ended up hitting a snag.”
Brian cast a slight glance at Patrick. “You’re well informed.”
“It’s nothing!” Patrick said humbly. “I just happen to know it from someone who’s been gossiping it with me. I heard your girlfriend made some extra kneel and grovel non-stop. Then you gave her a slap in the face in public by carrying the extra straight to the lounge. Why, have you got a crush on the extra? You’re getting rid of your new girlfriend?”
Patrick jokingly said as he was used to seeing his best friend change girlfriends all the time.
It would be strange not to see him change a new girlfriend every once in a while.
It was just that if the current starlet had really gotten replaced, she probably broke the record for being with him.
the shortest amount of time.
“Yes, I do,” Brian said casually, but he was still looking at Jason in the eye.
Patrick had not felt anything yet, but Jason’s face was already sinking. Even the air around him seemed heavy with seriousness.
“Hey, Jason, what’s wrong with you? Why are you so serious?” Patrick asked. He was wondering why there was something oddly eerie about the atmosphere.
Jason ignored Patrick and stared at Brian with his dark eyes. He suddenly smirked. “Is the extra your girlfriend’s sister?”
“Yes. What a coincidence, isn’t it?” Brian said.
Jason smirked even more, but his eyes were cold. “Yes, what a coincidence.”
As he finished, he turned and walked toward the exit.
Patrick looked at Brian who stood next to him in disbelief. “Is Jason… leaving? He hasn’t even been here for long.”
Brian stared at Jason’s back with the same serious look.
“Did you guys say something that I didn’t catch?” Patrick asked. He thought that he had understood everything the two friends said, but now it seemed otherwise.
How else could they react in such a way that he could not understand?
“Never mind. It’s just that some things are too coincidental,”
Brian said, averting his eyes.
He also heard Patrick mentioned that Jason seemed to care about a woman.
He just did not expect that the woman Jason cared about would be Grace.
