After the Affair Falling into a Billionaire's Arms novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456

To be honest, Louisa was indeed startled.

She really didn’t know how Teresa had determined that Briar was Julian’s first love.

Was she blind?

How could she not see something so obvious?

But Louisa didn’t want to hurt Briar’s feelings and smiled politely. “I understand, but I hope we can respect each other.”

The implication: I’m not a lesbian. I respect you, and I hope you respect me.

Briar laughed heartily. “You and Julian really are a match made in heaven.”

Louisa looked confused.

She didn’t know what Briar meant by that, but she didn’t ask.

For the rest of the journey, Louisa felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.

Noah and Teddy in the back row didn’t notice anything unusual at all.

Over twenty minutes later, the carriage stopped in front of a castle.

It was a Gothic castle, dark clouds hovering like black fog over the spires.

Warm yellow light spilled from within the castle, creating an eerie yet mysterious atmosphere.

Louisa’s group followed the butler through an archway.

Inside was a gorgeous, vintage atmosphere–beneath high ceilings hung massive crystal chandeliers that made one’s eyes dizzy.

Quite a few guests had already arrived.

Louisa spotted Julian almost immediately.

Not just because he was tall enough, handsome enough, dazzling enough, but more importantly, his clothing color–it looked exactly like an eggplant.

Louisa couldn’t help but laugh,

Julian seemed to sense it and looked in her direction.

Seeing Louisa in a sexy white dress, his pupils contracted slightly, and his face instantly frosted over.

A foreign woman had walked up to him wanting to speak, but he said ‘excuse me and strode toward Louisa…

Louisa stood there without moving, waiting for him to approach.

She wasn’t afraid of his cold face. Who was he trying to scare?

Teddy couldn’t handle it his legs were already weak with feat. He immediately stepped back two paces, hiding behind Louisa.

Noah excitedly rushed forward like a lost child who’d finally found his father, shouting excitedly, “Mr. Tudor, I’m here, I’m here! Aren’t you happy?”

Julian suppressed the urge to punch him. “What did I tell you to do? Forgot?”

The last sentence was extremely sharp.

Noah wasn’t afraid though, just acted like a pitiful big puppy. “Mr. Tudor, if you’re angry, just hit me.”

Julian was quite angry. This brat wasn’t afraid of a beating at all–hitting him would be pointless.

He looked at Teddy hiding behind Louisa. “What are you hiding for? Get over here!”

Teddy wanted to die.

He knew it would be like this.

He didn’t dare face his furious boss and shrank further behind Louisa and Noah, saying with a mournful expression, “This wasn’t my idea. I tried to persuade them, I really tried hard to persuade them. They wouldn’t listen…”

What could he do?

Julian sneered coldly. “Then why are you hiding? Come out. I won’t hit you.”

Teddy was silent.

Like hell he’d believe that.

He looked pleadingly at Louisa–they were the ones who insisted on coming, so why was he the one facing death? Did she have no shame? Go comfort Julian

already!

Louisa gave him a “stay calm” look and walked two steps closer to Julian. “It was me who insisted on coming. I forced them to come. It has nothing to do with Teddy and Noah. If you’re angry… hit me.”

She actually extended her hand to him.

Julian was both angry and amused, staring at her for several seconds before finally taking off his suit jacket and draping it over her. ‘Forget hitting you. Your

punishment is to be an eggplant too.”

Louisa pressed her lips together to hold back a smile. So he also thought this outfit looked like an eggplant.

Julian caught her smile. He was still angry–how dare she laugh?

Louisa pulled the suit jacket tighter and tugged his hand beneath it. “Alright, I’ll be an eggplant with you. Don’t be angry anymore. You’re scaring them.”

A coaxing tone.

But Julian was still angry. She didn’t say he’d scared her, only cared that he’d scared Teddy and Noah?

On the other side, from the moment she entered, Briar had quietly slipped away.

She didn’t dare face Julian’s wrath either.

She went straight to find Orion, who was standing elsewhere.

Crion was looking at Louisa, looking at the jacket draped over her, intensely jealous.

Briar smiled. “Beautiful, isn’t she?”

Orion looked at her coldly. “You brought her here? Why?”

Purely to irritate him.

Briar said, ‘What, did I bring Louisa here and ruin your plans?”

Orion said, “Julian and I are good friends.”

Briar said, “You think I’m stupid? I’ve known you how many years–don’t I know you? Look how jealous you are.”

She laughed gleefully.

Orion was provoked and said resentfully, “So what if I’m jealous? You’re the same, aren’t you? Interested in that silly woman?”

Briar pinched his arm hard. “Dare to insult my woman? You looking to die?”

Orion snorted heavily.

Briar said, “You’d better not give me attitude, or I’ll deal with you when we get home.”

Orion was furious but helpless against her.
