Chapter330
“I wonder who she’s trying to flirt with?”
“Who else can seduce? Obviously Mr. LeBlanc likes it!”
Next to them, the socialite and the heiress were gossiping, but they were silenced by Brayan’s intimidating presence before they could even gossip for two sentences.
Brayan was watching Clarence, with a cold smirk on his face.
“I never expected Dr. Bai, a high–end technology talent introduced by the government and a Ph.D. returnee, to be such a villain behind the scenes.”
“It’s not Clarence’s fault, it’s my fault.”
Jennifer took a step forward.
No matter how Clarence became a returnee with a PhD, and no matter how much the Trousia government valued Clarence as a talent introduction.
In Nexford, after all, Brayan’s influence was greater.
Jennifer knew how much Brayan loved Catalina. Tonight, when Clarence humiliated Catalina like that, there was no way Brayan would just let it go.
Jennifer didn’t want Clarence to make enemies with Brayan just because of her when he first came to Nexford, that wouldn’t be good for Clarence’s future.

Jennifer thought that by saying this, she could calm down some of Brayan’s anger
The result was that Brayan’s face looked even worse, staring at her eyes as if they were burning red irons.
Jennifer was a bit confused.
Just now Catalina’s skirt got stepped on and her underwear was exposed, Brayan wasn’t even this angry, what’s the matter now?
“You covered up for him like that…”
Brayan’s voice was soft, but his anger was boiling.
Clarence then patted Jennifer on the shoulder and stood in front of her.
“Mr. LeBlanc, you knew your partner was trying to bump into Jenny while dancing just now…”
Brayan raised his eyebrows slightly.
No sound.
Equals default.
He really wanted to take a look at Jennifer behind Clarence.
He wanted to see what Jennifer’s reaction was, what expression she had.
However, he didn’t get to see it.
“So it was her own fault that I stepped on her dress and tore it…”
Clarence said seriously, then gently put his arm around Jennifer’s back, and they left the dance floor.

Brayan watched as the two of them walked away, then he took out his phone and called Jamie.
Jennifer took Clarence’s car home.
On the way home, the two of them didn’t say a word in the car, but the atmosphere inside was surprisingly good, with a kind of unspoken understanding that silence is better than words.
Although I hadn’t seen Clarence in many years, the comfortable and relaxed feeling when I was with him was just the same as in high school.
The white Lexus parked outside the old house on Sanford Street.
Jennifer didn’t get off the car right away.
She turned and asked Clarence, “Where do you live now?”
“I had nowhere to live.”
“What?”
Jennifer looked at Clarence’s pitiful and helpless expression, she couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
As high–end AI talent introduced by the Trousia government, isn’t it easy to at least provide an apartment, if not a luxury house?
Jennifer couldn’t believe Clarence’s ghost story about having nowhere to live.
“So, what’s your plan for tonight? Staying in a hotel?”
Jennifer didn’t expose Clarence’s lie, then Clarence continued to ask.
“It’s so late, it’s hard to book a hotel now. If not possible… let’s just

spend the night on the bench downstairs at your place!”
Clarence pretended to sigh.
Jennifer laughed and said, “Sleeping outside in the middle of winter, aren’t you afraid of catching a cold?”
“I was scared…” Clarence nodded seriously, “So tonight I want to stay at your place, just not sure if you’re willing to take in a homeless person like me?”
