Chapter 380 She opened her eyes again and looked at her phone, where Brian had sent her a message. [Iâm waiting for you downstairs.]
Grace was now wide awake. She looked at Austin beside her, leaned down, and gently kissed her cheek, then got up, dressed, and went downstairs.
When Brian saw Grace, he was taken aback. He had never seen Grace look so haggard before. Her eyes were swollen, and her complexion was as pale as a sheet of paper.
His heart ached, and he felt guilty thinking that they still hadnât found any news about the child. âIâm sorry that we havenât found the child yet...â
âYou should be sorry,â he was interrupted by Graceâs cold voice before he could finish.
Brian frowned, looking at her in confusion.
âMy daughter has been found. Can you guess where she was found?â
Brianâs eyes lit up. âReally? Austin has been found?â
He was genuinely happy and excited, so he instinctively grasped her shoulders.
However, Grace coldly brushed his hands away. âThe child was found at a welfare institution near Sevetin Park. Do you have anything to say about this?â
Brianâs eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a moment, he realized what she was implying.
She was still suspecting Louise, as the location Louise had sent yesterday was at Sevetin Park.
âGrace, donât be so hasty. She was with her friend yesterday.â
Grace looked at him with a sneer, her heart completely cold. Even now, Brian still had unwavering trust in Louise.
Grace no longer expected her words to be enough to change Brianâs opinion of Louise. âBrian, the thing I regret the most is falling in love with you.
You wait and see. One day, you will regret trusting her so much!
âThank you for helping me search for my child yesterday. Speaking of which, I should thank you for having Louise send a location, otherwise... I might never have seen my daughter again Graceâs voice choked and blurred as she spoke the last sentence, and her tears slid down again.
Such a Grace was fragile yet resilient.
Brianâs heart felt as if it had been sharply tugged.
He opened his mouth, his voice a bit hoarse as he asked, âAustin wasnât injured, was she?â
Grace let out a cold laugh. âThanks to you, apart from being pinched by Louise on the mouth, she wasnât hurt.â
Brianâs eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he didnât defend Louise any further.
âIâd like to take a couple of days off to rest. Iâm very tired. Is that okay?â she asked.
âAlright, Iâll talk to the HR Department and arrange for your paid leave.â
âThank you.â Grace turned and went back into the community.

Although he believed that Louise wouldnât do such a thing, Graceâs firm tone always brought to mind the image of Louise holding Austin and pinching her mouth with her hand.
He closed his eyes as if there was an indissoluble fog in front of him, blurring his vision.
He didnât know what to believe.
His ears echoed with the words Grace had said over and over again. Her expression was resolute, firmly stating that it was Louise who kidnapped her, that it was Louise who stole Austin.

Shaking his head, he burned his fingers, suddenly regaining his senses, and threw away the cigarette butt in his hand. After thinking for a moment, he started the car and drove toward the Adkins family.
