I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 769 Your Family Has Great Genes

Around 30 minutes later, Louis arrived at the set.

Afterward, Leanna took her brother to a vacant dressing room and handed him the suit they had prepared for the

model. "Try it on. If it doesn't fit, I'll use some clips to pin it up for you."

"Okay," he responded.

"Hey," she called out to him. "Did you tell your company about this? Are they okay with it?"

"They are beyond ecstatic since it'll only give me more exposure. Anyway..." Daphne is my co-star, so Jellyfish

Entertainment would never deny this request.

"What is it?" Leanna asked.

"Nothing," Louis replied. He then headed into the dressing room to change into the suit.

Meanwhile, his sister sat on a chair and flipped through a magazine while waiting.

It didn't take him long to put on the suit and step out of the dressing room. Then, he commented, "The outfit is a

little loose."

When Leanna looked up, she raised a slender eyebrow. He is significantly slimmer than the model we've hired.

While the suit we made for the model fit loosely, my brother's wider shoulders and taller stature give him a

different proportion within the garment than the model. This makes my brother appear more aloof and noble. At

that thought, she put down her magazine. "I think it looks good. What else bothers you other than how loose the fit

is?"

"Nothing else," Louis answered.

"Very well." After saying that, she picked up the tie next to her. "Sit down. I'll put the tie on for you."

After hearing that, he walked over to sit on the chair before her. Then, his sister hung the tie around her neck and

began to tie it with deft hands. Halfway through, she suddenly found herself staring at his face.

At that moment, Leanna recalled the stack of photos they discovered at Jethro's house, including one of William's

disfigured face. After surviving the explosion, William transformed into a completely different man and even

underwent plastic surgery. Even though Leroy was walking around with William's face, his heart was so different

that he emanated a chilling and sinister aura. Thus, she never noticed how much Louis looked like William.

However, William gave her a photo album during her last trip to Lachstein. The album included many photos of her

as a child, William, and her mother. Whether it was the suit or the fact that Louis had suddenly grown up due to the

past few months' events, Leanna had the startling realization that her brother looked exactly like William when he

was young.

Sensing his sister had stopped tying the tie for him, Louis asked, "What is it?"

Suddenly, she snapped out of her thoughts. "Nothing." After she had finished tying her brother's tie, she said, "I'm

going to check on Daphne before I ask the stylist to give you a touch-up and style your hair."

When Leanna arrived at Daphne's dressing room, Daphne's makeup was done, and the stylist was working on her

hair.

"Is the guy here? I'll only be done in 20 minutes," the stylist said.

"He's here and changed into the suit," Leanna replied.

"Do I need to do a lot of work on him?" the stylist asked.

"There's no need. His skin is good enough that he doesn't need heavy makeup. You just need to tidy up his brows

and style his hair," Leanna replied.

"In that case, ask him to come over here. I'll have my assistant work on him. I'll be supervising, so there will be no

mishaps. That way, we can be done soon."

On the other hand, Daphne was silent the entire time.

Then, Leanna nodded and replied, "Okay."

After a while, she led Louis to Daphne's dressing room.

In the meantime, the stylist's eyes sparkled when she saw him. "Where did you find a model this handsome?"

Leanna smiled and said, "This is my younger brother. We called him in at the last minute for help."

After hearing that, the stylist remarked in an envious tone, "Your family has great genes. Both you and your brother

are great beauties. Your parents must have been beautiful people as well."

Louis froze and remained silent upon hearing this.

Meanwhile, Leanna smiled in response but did not say anything.

After that, Daphne cleared her throat and told her assistant, who had been standing behind her. "Fish, can you pour

me a cup of warm water?"

Soon, the stylist only realized she might have misspoken after Fish left the room with the empty cup.

"Please style his hair," Leanna said.

After hearing that, the stylist hurriedly agreed and asked her assistant to help.

A few minutes later, Leanna's phone rang. It was a call from Zoe, asking about the situation in the dressing rooms.

"I need to talk to Zoe. You two can come over as soon as you're done," Leanna said to Daphne and Louis.

Daphne nodded. "Very well."

Soon, the room fell into a strange silence after Leanna walked out of the room.

In the meantime, the stylist was still recovering from the mistake she had just made, so she did not dare to say

anything. In contrast, the stylist's assistant was focused on styling Louis' hair, and due to the unsettling mood in the

room, they were also at a loss for words.

Soon, Fish returned with a cup of warm water. "Here, Ms. Daphne," she said, handing the cup to Daphne.

"Thanks," Daphne responded, reaching out for the cup.

Now that the silence had been broken, the room was not as tense as before.

After Daphne sipped her water, she eventually asked, "Have your classes started yet?"

Louis hummed in affirmation. "Yes, they have."

"You... Do you not have a class this afternoon?"

"None."

After that, the room fell silent again, and she knew she had to finish the conversation even though she wanted to

cry.

"That's good," Daphne said, not letting her emotions show. "It's great that you're here. We might not be able to film

the advertisement otherwise."

Nonetheless, Louis pursed his lips and continued to stare silently at a point in the room.

She rarely saw him like this but understood why he acted this way. As she parted her lips to divert his attention, he

sprung to his feet instantly and said, "I need to go to the bathroom."

The moment he walked out of the room, the stylist let out a sigh of relief and whispered, "I said something wrong,

didn't I?"

"It's not a big deal, but your question..." Daphne paused before asking, "Am I going to be done soon?"

"Yes. You'll be done in a few more moments." After saying that, the stylist's pace picked up.

When Daphne's hair was done, she sprung to her feet and walked out of the dressing room. She wandered around

the corridors before finally stumbling upon Louis, who was, as she had suspected, hiding behind the emergency

exits.

He immediately hid the cigarette in his hand when he saw her.

After observing his reaction, she glanced around, and when she saw that the corridor was deserted, she closed the

door and walked over to him. "Your sister is here. Aren't you afraid she'll see?"

"No," he answered.

Daphne understood what Louis meant, but he assumed Leanna would never catch him smoking. So, Daphne stared

at him silently for a few seconds before saying, "You... Is it because of what the stylist said? She meant nothing by it

and feels sorry for having asked that."

"That's not it," he said.

"Then..."

Louis glanced at her and calmly explained, "There are some things that are always present, regardless of whether

or not someone has mentioned them. It would never change the past, yeah?"

Daphne opened her mouth to speak but soon found herself out of any rebukes. A moment later, she finally stated,

"You should also know that you don't need to bear the consequences of the actions of others."
