Perfect Stranger novel Chapter 199

A bitter smile appeared on Ken's face after he saw Bruce leave. He failed in the end. But now it was all right, at least he was truly relaxed.

Now that Bruce had taken care of Ken, it would be easier to settle the remaining problem. So all Bruce needed to do was standing in the conference room and telling them that Ken had already left the company.

Those who had been arrogant now had nothing to say.

After handling all the issues in the company, Bruce left the rest to Bobby and went to the hospital to keep Louisa company.

At the same time, in the Louisa's ward, Ken stood in front of the bed, looking at her sleeping soulfully.

Ken felt sorry for her. He didn't want to hurt Louisa.

He had never expected that the result would be like this. Now he realized how wrong he had been to Louisa. She was still on the bed. He had pursued nothing but let bygones be bygones.

"Sorry, I didn't know it would be like this." After standing there for quite a while, Ken finally blurted out what he had been thinking about. Although he knew that Louisa could not hear it now, he could not help telling her.

Louisa might have heard his words or felt that someone was looking at her. As soon as Ken finished speaking, Louisa opened her eyes.

It just ran into Ken's eyes. Louisa stared at him in a daze.

"You wake up." In the end, Ken spoke first. He was really uncomfortable to be stared by Louisa like that.

But Louisa didn't say anything to him, so he had to speak first. It was not until she heard Ken's words that she came to herself. With a smile on her face, she said to ken, "Why are you here?"

In fact, Louisa was quite surprised to see Ken here. After all, they were not familiar with each other. She was a little flattered that Ken would have come to see her. But Ken had come to see her, so she couldn't give him a hard time, didn't she?

The moment Ken saw the smile on Louisa's face, he felt his heart beating very irregular. Since that mischievous thing happened in the car, Louisa never smiled at him again.

She had no idea how jealous he was every time Louisa smiled at others.

"I come to see you. I heard that you got hurt. How are you now?" Ken asked with concern, looking at Louisa, although she looked fine now.

However, Ken didn't know whether the wounds in other parts of Louisa's body had been hurt or not. That was why Ken had asked such a question.

After hearing Ken's words, Louisa was confused. However, Louisa thought that perhaps Ken had heard about her injury from somebody else. After all, it was not a secret.

"I am fine now. Please have a seat. " Louisa felt a little tired looking up at Ken like this. It was not until then that she realized that Ken had been standing there all the time that she wanted him to sit down.

"No, thanks. I'm leaving soon. Since there is nothing wrong with you, I'm relieved. "

Ken didn't sit down as Louisa had expected. Because he knew that Bruce would come back soon. If Bruce saw him here, Bruce would be unhappy.

Now that Ken had thought through a lot of things, he felt that there was no need to go on fighting with Bruce. Ken smiled at Louisa, turned around and left.

Looking at Ken's back in bewilderment, Louisa wondered what kind of act Ken was playing. It was not until Ken's back disappeared into the ward that Louisa came back to her senses.

However, before Louisa could take her words back, the door of the bedroom was pushed open by Rod. Looking at Louisa on the bed, a smile spread across Rod's face.

"Louisa. How's your wound?" Rod pretended to be concerned about Louisa. Actually, he knew how it had happened.

He even knew about Ken's plan earlier than Bruce did, but he was waiting for such an opportunity, so of course he would not tell Louisa.

Looking at the way Rod was showing his concern, Louisa of course didn't know what Rod was thinking. She turned her confuse aside and asked, "Why are you here? Now it seems that it is no longer a secret that I am sick. "

Now they came to see her one by one, they must have known it. Thinking of this, Louisa felt depressed. It was just a wound? 'Why did they all look so surprised?' Thought Louisa.

With a smile on her face, she replied, "I'm fine now. Don't worry about me? It's just a minor wound. Bruce makes it a big deal. "

Louisa didn't pay too much attention to what she was saying, so she didn't notice that when she mentioned Bruce, the sternness on Rod's face suddenly changed. However, when Louisa could see Rod, Rod was not delighted at all.

"That's good. I'm relieved to see that you are okay." It seemed that Rod took a deep breath of relief from Louisa's answer. The complex expressions on Rod's face shocked Louisa. She didn't expect that Rod cared about her so much.

Thinking of the time she doubted the painstaking performance of Rod, Louisa regretted her decision.

"Actually, you can't blame Bruce this time. After all, he didn't know that Ken would kidnap Bran. Although it was caused by them, you and Bran are both fine now. Let bygones be bygones. "

In fact, Rod just wanted to take this chance to tell that the person who had abducted Bran was actually Ken.

Of course, it was because Rod had ensured that by now, Louisa still didn't know that Ken was the one who had kidnapped Bran.

Because before he came here, he saw that Ken was out of the room that Louisa in. If she knew that, Ken would not look calm on his face when he was out.

As expected, after hearing the words of Rod, the expression on the face of Louisa changed. Confused, she asked, "what did you say?"

She couldn't believe her ears. Did Ken do all of this? But why did Ken do that? What benefit could he get from kidnapping Bran?

It was not until this moment that Rod realized that he had spilled the beans. "Don't you know this? Then you can pretend not to have heard what I said just now. I believe that there must be a reason why Bruce didn't tell you. "

In fact, Rod was on the verge of being mad with joy. As expected, Louisa still didn't know that. Bruce hadn't told Louisa the truth, so Bruce didn't want Louisa to blame him.

Rod had thought to take this opportunity to turn the tables, but even if Bruce wasn't in the office. Rod had no chance to fight back. If so, he wouldn't let Bruce off the hook.

Having known that there was something wrong with this thing, Louisa couldn't just pretend not to hear it.

With a resolute look, she asked, "but now I've known what happened. I hope you can tell me."

Even if Rod didn't tell her, she would ask for it herself. Every time it was about Bran, Louisa would stick to it.

"Why are you here?" Just as Rod was about to say something, Bruce pushed the door open from the outside with displeasure. Seeing Rod standing there, he asked angrily.

"I'm here to see how Louisa's wound is. We know each other anyway. Now that she's injured, I'm here to see her. Isn't it too much?"

Hearing what Bruce said, there was a triumphant smile on Rod's face. Looking at the nervous look on Bruce's face, Rod was thrilled. It never occurred to Rod that Bruce would be so nervous sometimes.

"It doesn't matter. Isn't your present task to take care of Alina?" Bruce gave a cold glance at Rod and asked without hesitation.

They had never spoken to each other in a calm manner since Rod was brought to light. Every time they talked, they would compete with each other, and now they were no exception.

After hearing what Bruce said, there was a terrible look on Rod's face. It turned out that Bruce was not the one who was at a disadvantage. Now Bruce was reminding Rod that Rod could become who he was today all because of Alina?

Didn't Bruce know that what men hate most was being thought of relying on women to get promoted?

Bruce meat to do that. It was just because he knew that. When Rod thought of this, his face darkened even more. However, Bruce didn't seem to notice that. Then Bruce sat down by the side of Louisa's bed, and looked at her gently.

Looking at the look on Bruce's face, Rod grinned. Although Bruce was much better than him in every aspect, Rod believed that Bruce would feel very funny later.

"Well, I have to go now. If you want to know something, you can ask Bruce. I believe he will be very happy to tell you the truth. "

After Rod could finish, he turned around and left with a gloating look. Although Rod really wanted to stay and see what was going on here, he knew that if he were here, Louisa would not ask Bruce.

So Rod wanted to spare some time and space for them. After hearing Rod's words, Bruce found that Louisa still looked unhappy.

Bruce knew that it must be the result of the talk between Rod and Louisa. If not, she wouldn't look so terrible.

After watching Rod leave, Louisa asked Bruce with a dark face, "is it true that Ken kidnapped Bran?"

Since it was Rod to let her ask Bruce, Bruce must have known about it. But Bruce didn't tell her, which was the real reason why Louisa was angry.

"It was Rod who told you, wasn't it?" It was a damn Rod. Bruce knew that nothing good would happen when Rod came here. It seemed that he was too kind to Rod in the past, so Rod still didn't know how to repent.

"Does it matter? Is it true? " Hearing what Bruce said, Louisa looked at him with an ironic smile on her face.

The last thing Bruce wanted to see was the look on Louisa's face. It made him feel that he was a loser in love.

"Louisa, I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to be angry and worried. But I have punished Ken. Now he will never do such a thing again. "

Bruce knew he could not escape this. So he might as well tell the truth to Louisa.
