Perfect Stranger

Chapter 264 A Request From Bran



"Why are you involved in this? Do you want to intervene in Bruce and Louisa's divorce? Michelle didn't answer Susie's question,
but asked in a cold voice. She looked at Susie with hostility.
Michelle couldn't figure out what was on Susie's mind. Was Susie up to something, or did she do all this for the sake of Louisa?
But no matter which one of Susie's purposes was, they were always in a stalemate because Bruce could only be hers.
Hearing that, Susie could not help but burst into sneer. Then she looked at Michelle with disdain and said, "do you think you are
smart? Don't be so arrogant. I know that you must have played tricks on this matter, but I can definitely sue you that it is
impossible for them to divorce. And even if they divorce, Bruce will not be with you. You are such a vicious woman! "
Although Susie was not sure how Bruce and Louisa's future would be, she was sure that Bruce would never love Michelle.
Hearing what she said, Michelle became angry at once. She pointed at Susie with her slender fingers, and said angrily, "you, you
have no right to decide whether Bruce will be with me or not. One day, I will let you watch us being together!"
Michelle retorted. In fact, she was full of anger in her heart just now because of Susie's words. Because of anger, Michelle's
expression became somewhat distorted.
Susie gave a snort of contempt and took a look at Michelle. Now Susie was sure that it must have something to do with Michelle.
Therefore, the most important thing for Susie now was to go back and tell Louisa about it. Susie didn't want Louisa to make the
impulsive decision and she would regret it.
Seeing that Susie was far away, Michelle could no longer control her anger in her heart. She threw her branded bag to vent the
anger in her heart. Then she looked at the fading back. Michelle's eyes were full of coldness.
While Susie was looking for Michelle, Bran came to Susie's home to look for Louisa. When Louisa opened the door, she found
that it was her beloved son whom she had been missing day and night. Finally, a smile appeared on Louisa's face.
"Bran, why are you here? Did you come alone?" After leading Bran into her room, Louisa looked Bran up and down anxiously.
It was a long distance from Bruce's villa to here. It would be too dangerous if Bran came here alone. Although Bran was
resourceful, he was just a kid after all. There were so many bad people in the world, what if he met bad people.
Seeing that Louisa was worried, Bran felt warm in his heart. He helped her tidy up the hair on her forehead before opening his
mouth.

"Don't be so worried. I didn't come here alone. My father sent me here. He was afraid that you would get angry when you saw
him, so he left after sending me to the door." Bran carefully observed the look on Louisa's face when he mentioned Bruce.
The reason why Bran came here today was to persuade Louisa not to leave his father, so the first thing for Bran to do was to
figure out Louisa's attitude.
Hearing the name Bruce, the smile on Louisa's face became stiff and unnatural, but she was afraid that Bran would see
something, so she quickly adjusted her mood and put on a smile again.
"I'm glad that you're not alone. I haven't seen you for a whole week. I miss you so much," Holding Bran in her arms, Louisa said
in a somewhat moved tone.
She felt helpless after going through so many things in the past few days. At the moment, she saw the people she cared most
about, and she felt relieved a lot.
Knowing that Louisa was not very happy because of the conflict between her and Bruce, Bran felt even more distressed when he
saw her somewhat haggard appearance. Bran cooperated to hold her waist.
"I miss you too." Bran meant what he said. As the most important person to Bran, he didn't want Louisa to get hurt in the whole
world.
Hearing that, Louisa was touched deeply in her heart and her mood became much better. Now Bran was by her side, which was
the greatest comfort and the biggest motivation. She could have nothing except him.
They hugged for a long time. After a moment of hesitation, Bran looked up at Louisa and asked seriously, "Mom, what's wrong
with you and dad? I heard Dad say that you abandoned him. Is that true?"
Bran looked pitifully at Louisa, but his eyes were shining with sadness. Looking at Bran who was like that, Louisa felt very sorry
for him.
Louisa knew that Bran cherished this hard won father's love very much. If she broke up with Bruce, Bran would be the one who
felt the most painful. Even though Louisa wanted to tell him that, she couldn't say anything.
Just when she was hesitating about how to answer his question, Bran said again, "Mom, please don't separate from dad, okay?
You two love each other very much, why do you want to be separated?"

Not hearing her answer, Bran was worried that she would hold on to her decision. Bran couldn't help worrying and hurried to ask
again.
Looking at her son's pleading eyes, Louisa felt heartbroken. She never was willing to refuse any of his requirements, but this
time, she did not know what to do.
Louisa once again held Bran in her arms, and said painfully, "Bran, didn't you feel happy when two of us lived together in the
past" Let's go back to our previous life, okay? "
Thinking of the past when she and her son depended on each other, she asked tentatively. At that time, they had a hard time, but
they were also very happy, because she would not always be sad for someone like now.
She had thought that Bran would say yes without any hesitation, but out of her expectation, Bran rejected her as soon as she
finished her words.
"No, I don't want to go back to my previous life. I hate that kind of life!" His voice was full of eagerness and determination.
Hearing that, Louisa was stunned. She asked confusedly, "why? Didn't you feel happy when living with mommy before? Why do
you hate that kind of life?"
Hearing that Bran said he hated the past life, Louisa was very sad. Those days were the best memories for her, but her baby son
said he hated them.
She looked at Bran sadly, wondering what he would say next. She could not accept what Bran had just said.
As if having sensed Louisa's sadness, Bran's tone softened a lot, but he still said with determination, "because I don't want to be
mentioned by other children that I don't have my father. I want my parents to stay with me."
What a child wanted most in his heart. Bran felt a bit self-abased and lowered his head. What happened in the past was the thing
he minded most. At that time, his greatest wish was to have a father. Now his wish had finally been realized, and he didn't want
to go back to the past.
Bran's words dumbfounded Louisa. When she came to herself, she felt so sorry for Bran that she could hardly breathe. It turned
out that he cared so much about his father.
She had given all her love to him, which could make up for his absence of father. But now she realized, no matter how much she
loved him, her love could not replace his father's.

Seeing that Bran was begging her, she held him tightly in her arms again. She felt so sorry for him that tears fell down along her
cheeks.
"Bran, I'm sorry. I ignored your feelings before. I'm sorry," Sobbing, she lowered her head to look at Bran. At that moment, her
heart was broken beyond words.
They hugged each other tightly. She blamed herself for never putting herself in Bran's position.
When Susie opened the door and came in, she saw the mother and son clinging to each other with tears on their faces.
Susie put down her bag in shock, walked towards them, and asked worriedly, "what's wrong with you two? Why are you crying?
What happened? "
She just went out for a while, and when she came back, she saw Louisa and Bran crying bitterly. She was a little worried that
whether Louisa had told Bran about their divorce.
Upon hearing Susie's words, Louisa realized how embarrassed she was. She wiped the tears off her face and let go of Bran, and
said with a smile on her face.
"Nothing. I haven't seen Bran for a long time. He came to see me today and I was out of control." Louisa made up an excuse to
cover her lie. She didn't want anyone to know what she and her son had said just now.
But it seemed that Bran could read her mind. He didn't expose her feelings but looked at Susie with a big smile. He said sweetly,
"Auntie Susie, I haven't seen you for such a long time. I miss you so much!"
He rushed to Susie and gave her a big hug, which was the loveliness of a kid.
Susie's eyes were brimmed with love and adoration when she looked at Bran. She had seen Bran grow up from a little boy, and
treated him as her own child. So they were on good terms with each other. Sometimes they would hide some secrets from
Louisa.
"I miss you too. You haven't had time to keep me company since you went to school." With a pampering look on her face, Susie
touched Bran's soft hair.
She really liked Bran from the bottom of her heart. Sometimes, the relationship between the two of them was not like that of an
elder or a junior, but like friends.

Louisa saw the interaction between Bran and Susie. When Louisa saw the happy look on Bran's face, a smile appeared on her
face too. Now she began to realize how important Bran's smile meant to her.
"Bran, I take you to the amusement park today, okay?" Susie pecked Bran on the cheek and said with excitement.
Susie knew that Bran was a playful boy, so she could always guess what he liked to do every time. That was also the reason
why Bran liked her.
"Sure. But I have a request." Bran's reaction was not as happy as Susie had imagined, but rather depressed.
"Promise what?" Asked Susie in confusion.
Bran wiped the lipstick print hard on his face, looking disdainful.
"Can you stop kissing me? I've told you many times that my face is for my future wife. If my future wife knows that you kiss me
like this, she will get angry."
