Chapter 374

Austin rubbed her eyes with her hands, her cheeks a bit flushed, as her big, dark eyes began to curiously inspect the people in front of her.
The more Louise looked at Austin’s face, the more she thought she resembled Brian.
Could it be the child Brian’s? But the paternity test results were out, and this child had no blood relation to Brian. Could it be that there was a problem with the test report? Ah, Justin worked at the hospital. So it’s very likely that Justin tampered with the results in advance!’ As Louise thought of this, she glared at the child in her arms.
How could Grace give birth to Brian’s child? How dare she? She’s not even worthy!’ Louise roared inwardly.
As if sensing Louise’s malice, Austin suddenly started to cry.
Emily glanced at her with annoyance. “This little brat! What’s all the crying for?”
The thought of the child possibly being Grace and Brian’s made Louise want to strangle her, and she forcefully pinched her mouth shut. “Stop crying!”
Austin, in pain from being pinched, struggled and cried even louder.
Louise stared at her intensely, her fingers gradually spreading apart, then covering her mouth and nose.
The car came to an abrupt stop, and in front of them was a welfare institution.
Emily turned to Louise, about to tell her to leave the child there when she saw that Louise was actually covering Austin’s mouth and nose.
Emily was shocked and quickly removed her hand. “What are you doing?”
Louise’s expression was very terrifying. “In for a penny, in for a pound! Let’s just kill her today and be done with it!”
Austin, gasping for breath, cried even more fiercely, her little face turning a purplish-red.
“Are you crazy? If you want to kill her, don’t drag me into it! Let’s leave her at the welfare institution today, and later, if you want her dead, no one will be able to stop you!” Emily didn’t want to be dragged into her schemes.
It was true that she despised Grace, but to commit murder, her hatred hadn’t reached that level of intensity.
Emily took the child and got out of the car, avoiding the cameras, and then drove away.
Louise picked at her nails, thinking over and over again that such an act was too lenient on Grace and that abomination of a child.
“Stop the car!”
Emily frowned at her. “What do you want to do?”
“Stop the car! We can’t let that child go! We can’t let her off!”
Emily found her terrifying and tried to reason with her. “Taking away her child is already a severe lesson! There’s no need to take a life.”
Louise didn’t want to have blood on her hands either, but she felt that if they let the child go this time, it would surely become a major problem in the future.

Seeing Louise’s determination to go back, Emily found a place without surveillance and dropped her off.
Louise hurried back, but from a distance, she saw someone from the welfare institution come out and take the child away.
She bit down on her lip in frustration and turned to leave.
Searching aimlessly on the streets wasn’t a solution. Brian glanced at Grace, who was almost desperate with worry, and comforted her. “Don’t worry. The child will be fine. I’ve already ordered a blockade of all exits, and we’ll find out soon.” Grace covered her face with her hands, tears streaming down. Capern City was so vast, and finding a child was like looking for a needle in a haystack. What else could they do but wait for news?
“Is there any other possibility besides human traffickers?” he asked.
A flash of insight struck Grace. “Louise! It must be Louise!”
