Chapter 407

After Brian went upstairs, he lay on the bed and took out his phone. He opened WhatsApp and stared at Grace’s name for a long time.
His eyes were a little dry. He clicked into the dialog box and tapped on the virtual keyboard a few times. Brian typed: [How are you?]
He received a reply very quickly after sending the message. [Thank you for your concern, Mr. Francis. I’m recovering well. I should be back to work soon.] Brian looked at her distant and indifferent words. It was as if something was pressing down on his heart, and his breathing was a little irregular.
He wanted to ask more, but he did not know what to say. To her, they were just strangers at this moment.
Grace saw that he didn’t say anything else, so she added politely: [Mr. Francis, it’s getting late. You should rest.]
She was about to send it when the other party suddenly sent another message. [What do you want to eat tomorrow? I’ll get someone to bring it to you.] Grace looked at the text in surprise. She thought, ‘Deliver food? What is Brian doing?”
She thought for a moment and replied: [Mr. Francis is someone with a fiancée. This is not appropriate, right? Won’t your fiancée be jealous if she finds out?] Brian: [Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for you. I’ll get the servants to send it to you tomorrow. What do you want to eat?]
His dominance could be seen in his words. What surprised Grace was that this time, he did not explain that Louise was a kind person who would not be jealous. Since his attitude was so domineering, Grace happily accepted it. She replied: [Fried fish.]
He asked again: [What about for dinner?]
Grace thought for a moment and sent another
message. [BBQ ribs.]
This time, Brian simply replied: [Okay, good night.] He didn’t say anything else.
Grace pursed her lips. After a while, she sent a message to Vivian. [Vivian, you don’t have to bring me food tomorrow.]
Vivian asked: [Why? Is Carson bringing you food?]
Grace: [Yeah.]
The next day, Brian instructed Melvin as
ribs at night.”
Oon as he woke up in the morning, “Make her fried fish at noon today, and BBQ
He thought about it and added two more dishes that Grace liked to eat.
Melvin looked at him with a complicated expression, but he immediately accepted the order. “Alright, Mr. Francis. I’ll prepare the dishes immediately.” Melvin called someone to bring fresh ingredients over. After hanging up, Brian was about to go out. He looked at Brian’s back and let out a long sigh. Melvin thought, ‘Why does Mr. Francis care so much about a man? I don’t know if this is good for him or not. Sigh!’

After lunch, Melvin immediately went to the Community Hospital.

Melvin watched as he wolfed down the food. He could not understand what Mr. Brian was thinking.

After the man finished his meal, Melvin left with the thermos. When he reached the door, the man asked, “Sir! What are you bringing tomorrow?”
Melvin did not really want to talk to him. This man was not on the same level as Mr. Brian. From the way he ate, it could be seen that he was a person with no substance. He turned around and said indifferently, “We’ll have to wait for Mr. Brian to arrange this.”
With that, he left without looking back.
At Southside Hospital, Grace touched her belly and looked at the time on her phone. It was already one o’clock in the afternoon.
