Husband you've abandoned me Fine I'll focus on raising my son novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290: Reunited

JASMINE’S POV

"I love you," Louis told me.

Just when I thought I had gained control over my emotions, tears welled up in my eyes again.

"I love you too," I replied.

Yesterday, Keith had also told me he loved me. I was completely taken aback and repulsed by his words. But now, looking into Louis’ golden eyes full of genuine concern, those same words completely melted my heart.

To think I was in Keith’s arms the day before and kissing him and now I was in Louis arms. It was surreal. I was still processing the fact that I had actually escaped.

Upon entering Louis’s apartment I was suddenly overcome with emotion. In the car ride I was able to keep my composure because of the adrenaline of escaping but now

Taking in the familiar look of his apartment scent I just couldn’t hold back anymore. I couldn’t believe I had actually escaped.

As his arms wrapped around me and his familiar warmth and gentle touch filled me. Suddenly the guilt of everything I had done with Keith just the. Day before came to mind and I felt I didn’t deserve him.

"What’s more important is the fact that you’re actually safe now," he said to me. You’ve been through so much, so cut yourself some slack."

He then kissed me again. This time for much longer. It felt so good to feel his lips and his gentle hands on me. With Keith it was suffocating and he was more dominating. The difference was night and day. I cant

"I missed you so much," he said to me as his hug felt more deeper than the last. I leaned into him as well hugging him back.

"I missed you too," I told him.

When broke apart and Louis spoke up. "Now then back to finding Tony."

"Keith probably already knows that I’ve left the estate and will probably start looking for me. It’s a no brainer that he’ll suspect you have something to do with it,"

"Well we have to get moving then.

I nodded my head. "We have to find Tony before he does."

Louis nodded in agreement. "He still has that conservatorship over you."

"Before we head out and start l we need to figure out where we’re heading," I said as I wiped away my tears.

"Let’s go to my office," Louis said. He grabbed my hand and took me there.

"I was looking into Kolton Acland and learning about his life. He definitely looks like he would have a motive to go after Keith I’m surprised he wasn’t your first suspect. More importantly what made you question him now?"

"It crossed my mind earlier before we found but there wasnt enough physical evidence to pin anything on him other than having a motive. And about why I now suspect him now, I couldn’t tell you the full details in our texts because of the limited words I can use but I received a call from the lady we met in Kensington when we visited Diana’s old apartment."

"Really?" he asked.

"She told me that she once saw Marco with a different eye color. Specifically a golden-brown colour. The colour of Kolton’s eyes," I then opened my bag and took out the files I had taken with me.

"Tony told us that Marco had issues with his eyes," Louis added.

"Exactly," I continued. "So it supports the idea that Marco was hiding something about his eyes and it would explain why he looks similar to Keith if Kolton is his father."

"So that would imply that Edward and Kolton were working together? I mean you mentioned all the physical evidence relating to Diana was discovered under his name," Louis said.

"Right, Edward could have served as his inside source as to what was happening at the Acland HQ.

"What I don’t understand however, is why Edward is so adamant to maintain his silence on the situation now that he has been arrested," I then pointed out. "Edward is possibly going to face life in prison but he would talk about it. Why is that? He has nothing left to lose. Why protect Kolton?"

"Unless, there’s something that’s keeping him quiet," Louis suggested.

My eyes narrowed as I brought my hand to my chin. "Like he’s being threatened by Kolton?"

"It’s entirely possible that Kolton might have something over Edward and that’s why he will not fold no matter what happened to him."

I contemplated for a moment as I recalled everything the police and Keith had uncovered about Edward. Searching my mind, I recalled the picture of the ginger-haired woman on the fridge.
