Chapter 238
Brian narrowed his eyes slightly. That figure looked very familiar, but he could not remember who it was.
Jasmine held Louise's hand affectionately and was talking to her with a smile.
As Brian approached, he saw that it was Louise. Marshall was also sitting in the living room.
"Mrs. Francis, Mr. Brian is back."
Louise slowly turned her head and looked at Brian at the door. Her smile gradually froze as she looked at Brian without blinking.
Brian asked in surprise, "Louise, when did you come back?"
Louise did not speak. She only looked at him with tears in her eyes. She looked pitiful like she was about to cry.
Marshall chuckled and said, "Louise came back yesterday. Jasmine invited us to come over today, so I brought Louise here."
After saying that, he looked at Louise. "Louise, you don't know this, but after you left, Brian has been looking for you. I'm sure he's been having a hard time all this while. Now that you're back, the two of you should have a good talk."
Jasmine stood up and walked to Brian's side. She scolded softly, "Hurry up and apologize to Louise."
Brian's mind was blank.
He had even forgotten that Louise existed.
They hadn't contacted each other for a long time. After she left and he found out where she was, someone would send him her recent updates and tell him whether she was safe.
For the first two weeks, he would check his emails every day. Gradually, he stopped reading them.
Brian walked to Louise's side and sat down. He looked at her with a gentle gaze. "How have you been recently? You seem to have lost weight."
Louise lowered her eyes and sounded a little aggrieved. "I was in a foreign country. It wasn't good, nor was it bad."
Brian looked at her and subconsciously felt a little sad for her. "Then don't leave after you come back this time. I'm sorry. I was wrong."
Jasmine smiled in satisfaction when she saw Brian apologizing.
Louise bit her lip. She still seemed to mind the fact that Brian was once married.
She looked up at him. "We'll talk about this later."
Brian was stunned. "Okay."
Soon, it was time to eat. Brian sat next to Louise, and Jasmine sat on the other side.

Brian lowered his head and ate silently, His mind was in a mess. He was still looking for Grace. If he found Grace, what would he do about the child?
Louise had just returned. If he told Louise immediately that Grace had given birth to a child for him and that Louise was going to be a stepmother, would Louise leave again in a fit of anger?
Also, Grace had depression before. What if her depression acted up after he took the child away?

However, as soon as he thought of that, he felt like there was a thorn in his throat.
Brian's heart was in a mess. At this moment, someone slapped his thigh.
Brian came back to his senses and glanced at Jasmine.
Jasmine signaled him with her eyes to get some food for Louise.
Brian understood and immediately reached out his fork to pick up a lot of food for Louise.
"You're not used to the food overseas. Now that you're back, eat more and gain the weight back."
Louise looked up at Brian with moist eyes and nodded heavily.
Jasmine cleared her throat as if she had something to say.
