Chapter 389
Marshall was grinning from car to ear. Louise sat at the side and obediently served Jasmine food.
She asked Marshall to set up this dinner for a reason. As they ate and chatted, Louise skillfully led the conversation.
Jasmine sighed and said, "Louise is so obedient and sensible. Brian was also very obedient when he was young. In the future, your children will inherit the good genes of the two of you!"
Louise lowered her head in embarrassment and smiled.
As for Brian, it was unknown if it was because of Jasmine's words or because he thought of something, but he frowned slightly. "Jasmine, you don't have to worry about your grandson. I think there's some progress on this matter, Marshall said in a low voice.
The private room was only that big. Marshall's low voice was just a token gesture. The two parties involved could hear it.
Brian suddenly felt disgusted by Marshall's words.
He raised his glass and took a big gulp of wine. Then, he refilled his glass mechanically and repeated the action of drinking. Jasmine's interest was piqued. She looked down at Louise. "Louise, is what your father said true?" Louise bit her lip and did not say anything. However, the shy look on her face when she bit her lip was better than being silent.
Jasmine's eyes lit up as she looked down at Louise's belly and whispered to Louise, "When did this happen? Have you confirmed that you're pregnant? When was your last period?"
Louise became even more shy. "Well, Jasmine, not yet..."
She whispered into Jasmine's ear, "It's just that we forgot to take contraceptive measures last time. Maybe... maybe..."
She deliberately pretended to be embarrassed to say the rest of the sentence.
Jasmine was overjoyed. She firmly believed that Louise would get pregnant soon.
She looked at Brian and saw that he was still drinking. She reprimanded him, "Brian, why did you drink so much? How are you going to take care of Louise later?"
Brian

down the wine glass that was about to reach his mouth
Jasmine cleared her throat and announced formally, "Looks like we should have good news soon. Although their wedding date is at the end of the month, it's still inappropriate to get married after pregnancy. Brian and Louise, you should take time these days to register your marriage first. Marshall, what do you think?"
Marshall smiled and narrowed his eyes. "Jasmine, you can arrange it."NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Jasmine smiled and shook Louise's hand. "Louise, what do you think?"
What she said just now was Louise's goal tonight. However, to appear reserved, she still said shyly, "Of course, I will listen to you."
"Alright, Brian. I'll choose a date later. You'll register your marriage in two days," Jasmine said happily.
The tone of her statement seemed she was only informing Brian that. Jasmine had asked for everyone's opinion but not her 14:38 Thu, Dec 5
son's.
Brian felt frustrated for no reason.
He nodded curtly. "Okay. We'll talk about it after you've chosen date."
Louise saw his reaction. How should she put it? He didn't resist uch but wasn't happy and was even perfunctory.
It was as if marrying her was just an obligation. Louise thought unhappily, 'What did it mean to talk about it after Jasmine chooses a date? What is there to talk about after the date is set?'
Louise understood the main point of his words, but she could not say it out loud.
She was certain that Brian was still thinking about Grace!
Therefore, she felt Grace had to die!
On the way back, Louise did not mention anything that happened at the dinner table. If she did, Brian would only seize the opportunity to counterattack.
