Falling For My Contractual Wife (Brian and Grace) novel Chapter 365

Chapter 365 

Brian gazed at the laptop screen, his expression growing increasingly serious. 

Louise, with high spirits, was explaining the various features to him, not yet noticing the change in Brian’s demeanor. 

It was only after she had finished the presentation that she looked at him. “What do you think? 

“Brian, what’s the matter?” 

Brian spoke in a heavy tone. “Did you do this?” 

Louise sensed something was amiss and hesitated for a moment before replying, “I worked on it with a few colleagues from the department.” 

“Who?” he asked. 

Louise couldn’t immediately tell if he was probing or simply asking, and she felt an unexplained nervousness. 

She adjusted her expression and said in a joking manner, “What’s wrong? Are you planning to reward us? Then I’ll have to fight for some good benefits for my colleagues.” 

Brian stared at her face for a long while, making Louise feel a bit uneasy. 

“What’s going on? Do you really want to reward us? How about we all go out for dinner and karaoke tonight?” she asked. 

Brian suddenly smiled. “Alright, whatever you want is fine.” 

Seeing his expression returned to normal, Louise let out a sigh of relief, her palms sweaty. 

His expression just now was too strange as if he knew that the work was done by Grace. 

After Louise went downstairs, she announced to everyone. “Tonight, Mr. Francis has invited our department to dinner. Is that okay with everyone?” 

The colleagues all cheered, and one of them asked, “Mrs. Francis, why has Mr. Francis suddenly decided to treat us to dinner?” 

Louise’s expression was a bit odd as she glanced at Grace. 

At that moment, Erin said, “Why do you need to ask? It’s obvious that Mr. Francis is treating our department because of Louise. We are all benefiting from Mrs. Francis’s grace.” 

Louise then feigned a shy smile. 

to dinner 

Grace listened to everyone’s excitement without uttering a word. After a while, when the excitement had died down, she spoke to Louise, “Mrs. Francis, I won’t be joining you. As you know, I need to go home to take care of my child after work.” 

Louise curled her lips into a semblance of regret. “Is that so? That’s a real pity. We won’t force you, then.” 

She hadn’t intended for Grace to come in the first place. 

The fact that Grace had voluntarily suggested her own absence was a sign of her being quite sensible. 

After observing her for a few days, Louise found that Grace was indeed behaving more compliantly, not daring to talk back when made difficult, and it seemed she was no longer harboring any illusions about Brian. 

In the afternoon, after work, Grace was the first to leave.

It wasn’t until everyone had arrived at the restaurant that Brian noticed someone was missing. 

“Where’s Grace?” he asked. 

His question about Grace’s absence in front of so many people was a bit embarrassing for Louise.
