Chapter 526
Nova turned to look at him with a smile on her face. She leaned her head on his shoulder and played with the cuff of his shirt. “How can I not be touched? I feel very happy to be protected in the arms of the person I like.”
Brian hugged her waist, but his face was cold.
After receiving the medication, the two of them walked out of the hospital hand in hand.
At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly shouted, “Grace!”
Nova and Brian froze at the same time.
Brian turned around and looked at the man behind him.
The man suddenly rushed up and grabbed Nova’s hand. He said in surprise, “Grace!”
Nova looked up at him and smiled. “Who are you?”
Justin was stunned and immediately let go. “I’m sorry, I mistook you for someone else.”
He glanced at Brian and then at Nova. His gaze landed on their interlocked fingers and he smiled sarcastically. “Mr. Francis, didn’t you only want to marry Louise back then?” Brian frowned. “It’s none of your business.”
Justin suddenly felt sorry for Grace. “Grace’s death is all your fault. How dare you live a carefree life right now!”
A look of pain flashed across Brian’s eyes, and his entire body seemed to be emitting a cold aura.
Nova looked displeased and frowned. “Who are you? What does it have to do with you? I won’t allow you to say anything about my boyfriend!”
Justin looked at her coldly. “Disgusting!” With that, he strode away.
Nova turned to comfort Brian. “Brian, don’t be angry.”
Without a word, he took her hand and quickly left the hospital.
After Marshall returned home, he told Louise that he had hit Brian. When Louise heard that Brian was protecting Nova at all costs, she wanted Nova to die immediately. She thought, ‘Nova, just you wait! If I can’t get Brian, I won’t let you have him!’

Brian and Nova were both seriously playing their roles. In the company, Nova received bouquets from Brian every day.
On the weekend, the two of them went to eat at a restaurant.
Halfway through the meal, Nova suddenly saw a man wearing a black mask appear outside a small restaurant opposite.
She put down her fork and excused herself to go to the washroom before leaving.
Nova circled around before walking over. The person walked into an alley. Nova followed and saw that he had taken off his hat and mask, revealing the scar on his forehead.
The person opposite him was Louise.
Louise came to look for Hale Burns today because she was really at her wits’ end. She could not stand Nova anymore. She wanted her to die.
The only person she could ask for help was Hale.
Nova was outside and did not dare
to go over. Louise and Hale were sitting by the window at the entrance of the restaurant. Nova

would be discovered ild
she went over. Therefore, she could not hear what the two of them were saying.
When Hale heard Louise’s request, he narrowed his eyes and lowered his voice. “You still want to kill someone? You’ve already been dumped by Brian. Do you think that even if that woman dies, Brian will marry you? He didn’t marry you five years ago, he still won’t five years later!”
Hale took a sip of water and looked at Louise disdainfully.
Louise had a favor to ask of him, so she did not dare to fall out with him. She took the initiative to sit beside him and leaned against him softly Her body rubbed against Hale’s body intentionally. “Don’t worry. As long as you help me deal with her twill compensate you accordingly. I don’t expect to be with Brian anymore, but he has wasted so many years of my youth. He has already compensated me with a lot of money.”
