Chapter 451
Marshall said, "Jasmine, so our children..."
However, Jasmine cut him off. "Marshall, how's the project I asked Brian to introduce to you recently?"
Marshall choked and glanced at Louise. He squeezed out a smile and said, "You're talking about the project in Petanic. You have a good intuition. The project is about to start construction. The estimated net profit is above 30%."
Jasmine smiled. "That's good. In the future, let Brian introduce a few more projects to you."
Marshall nodded and said, "It's my blessing to have a son-in-law like Brian."
Jasmine subtly changed the topic. "This is what I should do. By the way, the Francis Group is currently preparing to enter the clothing industry. Is Adkins Group interested?"
Marshall paused awkwardly for a moment before returning to normal. He smiled and said, "The Adkins family has no experience in this field. We don't want to be in a hurry to do it for the time being. We'll be related in the future. We'll deal with the clothing industry after Louise has some experience."
Jasmine took a sip of coffee and said with a smile, "You're so thoughtful. The food is getting cold. Hurry up and eat."
Louise's expression was a little ugly. She placed her fingers under the table and twisted them into a ball.
She saw clearly that Jasmine was deliberately avoiding talking about her marriage. Marshall had hinted so many times. Jasmine was a smart person. She obviously knew what Marshall was trying to do.
Jasmine wondered if the Francis family had found out about something.
The more Louise thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. She thought, 'This Jasmine is too cunning. She is too good at pretending. She perfectly hid the fact that she was avoiding the topic of my marriage with Brian. What exactly went wrong?'
Marshall had mentioned it two or three times in a row, but Jasmine had diverted the topic over and over again. Marshallwas too embarrassed to mention it again. If he did, it would seem like the Adkins family was cheap.
After the meal, the driver drove Jasmine home. Marshall and Shannon took the car back together, leaving Louise and Brian alone.
After Louise waved goodbye to the
parents of the two families, she
turned to look at Brian and asked directly, "Brian, when are we holding our wedding?" She held his hand and smiled at him.
en
There was no expression on Brian's face. His gaze did not even linger on her face for more than two seconds.
Louise watched as he lowered his
head and pried open her fingers one
by one. Then, he said, "I'm sorry, the wedding might be delayed. I still have some things to deal with, so I can't send you back. A driver will be here for you later. I'll leave first."
With that, he got into a car and drove away quickly without even looking at her. Louise widened her eyes in disbelief. Her face was covered in mixed emotions.
Brian had never been so cold to her. No matter how busy he was, he would try his best to send her home. Even if he could not send her home, he would only leave after the driver came to pick her up.
Louise thought, 'He pretty much just abandoned me by the road.'
Louise was so angry that her face turned pale. She gritted her teeth.
After Brian got into the car, he turned on his phone and saw that Camren had sent him a video.
It was a clip from a surveillance video. On the surveillance video, Ava was in a car. The car was parked in front of Francis Group.
She seemed to have seen someone and hurriedly asked the driver to follow, and the person she was following was actually Louise. The time on the surveillance camera showed that it was exactly three hours before Ava died.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
