Chapter 925
"Oh, | believe you-no need to get upset," Valarie replied.
Jayden remained silent, though his expression darkened. For sreason, her words only fueled his anger.
Michelle, realizing she had been thoroughly ignored, turned to Jayden and said, "Jayden, you don't need to leave.
I'll go by myself."
She grabbed her bag and hurried out of the room. As she passed Brandon, she noticed he didn't even glance in
her direction. Her face went pale, and she took a deep breath before walking quickly out of the private room.
Jayden glared at Brandon. "I never thought you'd change so much just because of a relationship. All these years
of brotherhood-do they really mean less to you than a girlfriend you've barely started dating?"
Brandon had heard enough and let out a cold laugh. "Of course my girlfriend means more tothan you do.
Who do you think you are? Are you going to marry me? Have kids with me?
"My girlfriend is my priority. If you don't like her, then you don't like me. | suggest you get over yourself."
"Fine! Fine! I'll remember what you said today!" Jayden snapped before storming out and slamming the door
behind him with a resounding bang.
The room fell silent.
Yale turned to Valarie with a calm smile. "Ms. Weir, please don't take what happened just now to heart. I'd like to
apologize on behalf of Michelle and Jayden. They're young and sometimes act without thinking. | hope you won't
hold it against them." Valarie raised an eyebrow and smiled. "You're being too polite, Mr. Radford. | wouldn't take
such trivial matters seriously."

"That's good to hear," Yale replied, his tone light but courteous.
Although Michelle and Jayden left in a huff, the rest of the meal proceeded without further incident.
Yale and Nolan remained polite-not overly warm, but not cold either.
After dinner, Brandon and Valarie said their goodbyes to the group at the door before heading out.
On the drive home, Brandon glanced at Valarie apologetically. "Valarie, m sorry I'd known Michelle and Jayden
would pull a stuntiat! wouldn't have invited them.
Over the years, Brandon had made a point of distancing himself from Michelle to avoid any misunderstandings
with Valarie.

Valarie smiled. "It's fine. Don't worry about it."
After all, they were just his friends. Even if they were family, if anyone dared to act snide with her, she wouldn't
let it slide.
Seeing that Valarie genuinely didn't seem upset, Brandon finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Jayden was persistent, calling back almost immediately.
Brandon answered the call with a frosty expression. "What is it?" "Brandon, we're at the bar. Cjoin us for a
