Chapter 72
“Hello, Ms. Schneider. I am a staff member at the resort. We had a barbecue and camping event tonight. Are you interested in joining, Ms. Schneider?”
Briana thought for a moment and since she didn’t have anything to do in the evening, she signed up for it.
In the evening, when she arrived at the camping site according to the designated time, she realized that there were still quite a few people.
The people who can come here to play now are all related to the Newman Group.
Briana didn’t expect that Maxim and his group, Hector’s crew, Norma, and her friends all came.
Briana was about to start barbecuing when Norma noticed her sitting directly next to the small barbecue grill, which could accommodate one or two people.
“Briana, come over here and join us!”
Briana had intended to refuse, but Norma walked directly beside her and said, “It’s boring to barbecue alone. Come with us, we can keep you company and have a chat.”
Under Norma’s warm invitation, Briana had no choice but to go and sit with them.
Sitting among a group of old ladies, Briana immediately stood out.
All the elderly people from other prominent families in Bridenville
were with Norma. When they saw Briana, they all started asking Norma who she was.
Delilah was about to speak when Norma interrupted, “This is my goddaughter, Briana. If any of you have a boy of similar age, remember to introduce him to my granddaughter!”
Upon hearing this, Briana couldn’t help but feel a bit helpless, “Grandma…”
Not to mention that she and Maxim were not divorced yet, she also didn’t want to focus on her emotions now. The most important thing for her to do now was to take care of herself first.
Norma smiled at her and said, “Briana, don’t worry. When you get married, I will definitely prepare a generous dowry for you!”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately started talking about who among them had a talented young man that they could introduce to Briana.
Maxim, who was sitting next to her, naturally heard Norma’s words and instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
He was in a hurry to introduce someone to Briana before he divorced her. Did he think his grass wasn’t green enough on his side?
Brycen had a look of amusement on his face and smiled as he said, “Maxim, can you still eat this barbecue?”
Maxim coldly glanced at him and said expressionlessly, “If you have nothing better to do, go ahead and continue skewering barbecue.”
This barbecue event was completely self-service. The staff only provided meat and the necessary ingredients. We had to cut the meat ourselves and mix the ingredients ourselves. If we couldn’t mix them well, it would be a disaster.
Brycen didn’t do anything and was assigned the task of stringing meat.
Thinking about the soft and squishy feeling of the meat in his hand, he couldn’t help but shudder and quickly said, “Can’t I be forgiven for my mistake? Why are you taking every joke so seriously now?”
Maxim remained silent and had an extremely cold expression on his face, giving off an unfriendly vibe.
Brycen glanced at the unusually silent Kiley and smiled, saying, “Kiley, why are you so quiet tonight? You don’t seem like your usual self at all.”
Kiley forced a smile and said, “I was just lost in thought, that’s all.”
Brycen smiled and remained silent.
The reason for Kiley’s silence, he probably knew as well. Later, the reason why the horse Briana was riding suddenly went mad was captured clearly on the surveillance footage.
Everyone thought Maxim would do something to Kiley, at least give her a warning, but he did nothing and let Kiley stay by his side as if nothing had happened.
However, Kiley felt guilty and didn’t know how to face Maxim for a moment. In addition, Adeline was not there, so she could only remain
silent.
Just then, Maxim suddenly stood up and walked quickly towards the next table.
