Falling For My Contractual Wife (Brian and Grace) novel Chapter 367

Chapter 367 

Louise slowly followed his gaze and her face stiffened. 

Brian raised his glass and drained it in one gulp, indifferently saying, “I don’t feel like dancing.” 

Louise clenched her fists tightly. ‘Grace! It’s always Grace! Why does she always haunt us?‘ she wondered. 

Just then, a woman in a tight long dress approached, her seductive red lips curled into a somewhat arrogant smile. 

Louise frowned slightly, sizing her up, guessing that she was probably the daughter of one of the companies that cooperated with the Francis Group. 

The woman arched her eyebrows at her. “Don’t you recognize me? That’s right. Although you are the daughter of the Adkins family, you haven’t had the chance to attend the socialite gatherings in Capern City since you were just recognized.” 

Louise felt a chill in her heart, but her face remained composed, still wearing a gentle and genero 

“I’m sorry, I really don’t know you. Do you know me?” she asked. 

The woman lifted her chin proudly. “I’m a classmate of Brian’s, Emily Taylor.” 

Louise certainly knew the Taylor family, which was also a distinguished family in Capern City, with an empire even larger than the Adkins Group. That was why Emily was so arrogant. 

Emily truly looked down on Louise, thinking she wasn’t good enough. 

Emily also had a liking for Brian. Her mother had hinted to Jasmine several times before finding out that Brian had been waiting for a woman who had saved his life when they were children. 

Now, Emily saw the woman in person. Louise was somewhat pretty, but such beauties were a dime a dozen in Capern City. 

Emily really didn’t think much of Louise. 

“Miss Taylor, nice to meet you,” Louise said, extending her hand. 

Emily’s gaze was somewhat disdainful. She hesitated for a moment, extended her hand to casually touch Louise’s, and then quickly pulled it back. 

Louise sneered inwardly. 

“Which school did you graduate from?” Emily asked abruptly. 

Louise was taken aback, and her face paled slightly. “Ah… Ms. Taylor, I attended a regular university, one that you might not have heard of.” 

Emily let out a disdainful, haughty smirk. “I thought the woman Brian was interested in would be more special in terms of looks, education, figure…” 

Emily scrutinized Louise from head to toe as she spoke, then shook her head. “What exactly does Brian like about you? 

“Is it just because you saved him when you were a child, and that’s why he can’t forget you?” 

Louise didn’t get angry. A woman’s intuition told her that Emily was interested in Brian. Knowing about Brian’s past rescue was a clear indication that she had inquired about his emotional history. 

Deliberately, Louise put on a pitiful and self–deprecating expression. “Miss Taylor, are you not aware of Grace?”

Emily’s eyebrows knitted in confusion. “Grace? Who is Grace?”

“To be honest, the reason Brian is marrying me is indeed out of a sense of duty. There has always been a woman he can’t forget, and that woman is Grace. They were actually married for three years.” 

Emily looked at her in shock. “What are you talking about? Three years of marriage?” 

Louise was also a bit surprised that Emily was unaware. 

It seemed that the secret marriage between Brian and Grace had been well–protected. 

Since Emily didn’t know, it was even better. Louise could embellish the story as much as she wanted. 

It would be ideal if she could use Emily to deal with Grace. That would be perfect! 

“Grace is quite the schemer, which is why Brian has always been infatuated with her. Miss Taylor, I understand that you think I’m not a good match for Brian, but… you really shouldn’t dislike me.
