Listen Audiobook Version:



Louise wanted to keep Brian staying for a night. She thought of a way and looked at Marshall. "Dad, do you want to drink some wine?" Marshall said with a smile, "Sure. Brian, since you're also here, let's drink together."

Brian's hand paused, and he said politely and distantly, "Mr. Adkins, I have to drive later. I can't drink."

"It's fine. Louise can send you back later," Marshall said.

Brian lowered his eyes and turned to Louise. "She's a girl. How can I trouble her to send me back? Since you want to, I'll drink with you." "Okay. Louise, go get the wine." Marshall smiled.

Louise took a bottle of red wine and filled two glasses for them.

After dinner, Brian played chess with Marshall for a while.

His phone rang. As he played chess, he picked it up and said, "Okay, wait for me outside."

Louise sat beside Brian and knew his driver had called. It seemed that he was unwilling to stay there for a night.

Putting down the last chess, Brian said to Marshall, "Mr. Adkins, my driver has arrived. I'll send Louise upstairs. See you another day." Marshall smiled. "Okay."

Brian sent Louise back to her room. Louise hugged him and said coquettishly, "Brian, it's already so late. Do you still want to go back tonight?"

Brian grabbed her arms and separated her slightly from him. "It's not appropriate for me to sleep here."

Louise bit her lip and said, "My father won't say anything. After all, the wedding date has been set."

Brian laughed and asked dotingly, "I don't have any clothes to change into here. How am I supposed to go to work tomorrow morning?"

Louise had guessed that he would refuse her with such an excuse, so she had prepared clothes for him. She looked up into his eyes, saying, "I bought clothes for you when I returned to the country. I wanted to give them to you as a gift, but I forgot. You can wear them tomorrow." Brian's hand paused for a moment. He averted his gaze and said indifferently, "There's a meeting tomorrow morning. The documents I need are all at my home."

Louise's heart sank a little. Brian always had so many reasons why he could not stay.

Brian sensed the change in her face and pulled her into his arms. "Alright. Your imagination is running wild again, right?"

He held her hand, looking at the rings on his and her fingers. "Look, the ring's got us together. Are you still afraid I'll leave you?"

Louise lowered her eyes and smiled. "No. I just can't bear to be separated from you. In the past five months, every day has seemed to be as long as a year for me. It's not easy for us to meet again, so I always feel it's unreal."

Brian did not say anything but hugged her quietly for a while. "Alright, don't think too much. Go to bed early."

He was so straightforward. What else could Louise say?

Sometimes, she thought Brian did not want to touch her. However, the deep affection in his eyes was so real. She looked down at the ring on her finger. In a month and a half, she would become his real wife. By then, he would have to be intimate with her.

The next morning, Carson had a fever. When he had breakfast, he felt dizzy. Without eating much, he put down his fork. Grace stopped him and touched his forehead. "You have a fever."

Carson said nonchalantly, "I'll be fine after a nap. Don't worry about me."
