Brian drove Diana and Carol to the nearest restaurant, still unsure how to handle the odd situation.
After what had happened, Carol was still too embarrassed to face Diana and Brian.
Diana tried to comfort her, "It's okay. You can help us by asking your father to invest in Brian's company. That would be great."
Brian nodded. "I am exhausted after handling all the issues in the company for the past few days. Your father's withdrawal was rather unexpected."
Carol felt truly sorry for what she had done. Looking at Diana, she smiled.
The positive atmosphere was short-lived, however, as Brian suddenly recalled where he had been when he received Carol's call.
"Sybil's press conference is happening right now. I just left her there and ran out!"
"What?" Carol was shocked. Having been reunited with her childhood friend, Carol had thrown away all her jealous thoughts. Now, Diana's trouble was also her trouble.
