Douglas had always behaved like a little adult and was usually very opinionated. Grace couldn't figure out what he was thinking. She glanced at Douglas but didn't take the initiative to hug him. "Goodnight." Grace closed the door and left. She didn't notice the trace of disappointment in Douglas's eyes. Zaden returned to his room angrily and lay on his bed. It wasn't long before he heard the sound of the door opening and closing. It must be Grace going downstairs after putting the children to bed. He wanted to fall asleep quickly but what had happened earlier kept replaying in his mind. Although she was wearing childish pajamas, she had a nice figure and she wasn't wearing any undergarments. The feeling of her hands on his chest and the way her soft hands pushed him... suddenly, Zaden felt a little hot. "What's going on?" Zaden became irritable. He lowered the temperature of the air conditioner by two degrees and kicked off the quilt. Ever si
Not long after dinner, Moira's luggage was sent over. She shamelessly moved into the second floor under the guise of taking care of the children. Zaden couldn't be bothered to express his opinion. As long as she didn't bother him. Moira interpreted Zaden's silence as approval. She thought of a way to get rid of Grace. "Grace, come and unpack my luggage!" Moira arrogantly demanded. Grace was the chef and she worked part-time to take care of the children. She wasn't an ordinary servant. She didn't even have to wash the dishes. She ignored Moira. "Haven't you asked the wrong person?" Grace did not move an inch. It wasn't time to put the children to sleep yet. It was her break time now. Moira was very angry when she saw Grace disobeying her. She insisted, "Grace, you have to be clear of your identity. You're just a babysitter!" "You're the one who isn't clear. I'm a chef, not a babysitter," Grace corrected her. "What's the difference?" In M
"You're dressed like this but you're afraid of people seeing you?" Grace asked in reply. "I didn't wear it for you," Moira replied. "Oh, then who did you wear it for?" Grace asked knowingly, showing a knowing smirk on her face. "What does it have to do with you?" Moira lifted her chin. She didn't like Grace at all. She felt that Grace was mocking her. Grace wasn't going to fight with Moira here. She smiled meaningfully and was about to go downstairs. Moira handed the fruit platter to her and arrogantly ordered, "Take this down." Grace raised an eyebrow. "I've told you before, I'm not your babysitter." Grace did not spare Moira another glance. She walked past her and headed downstairs toward her room. "That b*tch!" Moira stomped her feet and glared at Grace's back. She wanted to destroy her. Moira was already angry after what had happened with Zaden. Grace's attitude towards her made her even angrier. Grace was a ticking time bomb.
"That's impossible. I didn't even buy it. How could you have possibly seen it in the bag?" Grace asked. "This is a hospital!" A nurse came over and warned, "Please take it outside. Don't disturb the other patients." Only then did they walk outside. They still couldn't find a solution after arguing for a long time. Moira insisted that Grace had bought it, but Grace insisted she didn't. It would be clear if they went home and took a look, right? "Enough. We'll talk about it when we're home," Zaden said. After arriving home, Moira immediately ran to Dulcie's room. She took out the bag of pudding and poured the contents onto the tea table. The peach-flavored pudding was among them. There weren't many. Moira took a peach-flavored pudding and asked, "Grace, is this what you meant when you said you didn't buy it?" The evidence was before them. It wasn't looking good for Grace. "Zaden, Grace is vicious. Even if she didn't know that Dulcie is a
Grace had won the argument, but she didn't have the time to be overjoyed about it. She warned Zaden immediately, "Even though you're my boss, you have to knock before entering, and you may only enter once I've given you permission!" As Grace spoke, she pushed Zaden out of the door. Seeing that he was already out, she slammed the door in front of him and locked him outside. "You..." Zaden was furious, that woman pushed him out again! She sure was bold to argue with him and push him out, not to mention for the second time! This woman truly was something else. Zaden was so mad that he had forgotten about the real reason he was here to look for Grace. Now that Zaden was in a similar situation as before, he realized that he did have some different feelings towards Grace. But the feelings were only physiological, they weren't any special feelings. Zaden had always avoided the opposite gender, thanks to Moira's plot a few years ago. Since then, h
"You don't have to worry about that. Just go get changed and follow me," Zaden said. "Oh," Grace replied, before returning to her room. As she passed by Moira, Grace didn't see the looks on her face, but she knew that it was probably terrible. While Grace wasn't there, Moira asked, "Zaden, why are you taking Grace to the banquet?" Have you fallen in love with her? Moira didn't dare to ask the question, she only dared to guess the answer secretly. "It's none of your business." Zaden said indifferently. Grace got changed, then left with Zaden. Moira watched as the two of them left. At that moment, she felt that all the time and efforts she had spent on dressing up were a joke. Zaden would rather Grace accompany him to the banquet than take a single look at her. Haha...she couldn't even beat that poor girl Grace Miller. Whether Zaden had fallen for Grace or not, she had to speed up her plan to chase Grace out of the Andrew famil
"No," he said firmly. Grace felt as if she had been teased again, but she didn't know what to do. She pushed Zaden away, and ran away from the birthday banquet hurriedly. "Heh..." Zaden chuckled softly. He remembered he once said angrily that if that woman pushed him away again, he was going to fire her. But now that Grace had pushed him away, he didn't actually want to fire her just like that. "What are you doing here?" Kevin popped up out of nowhere. "Not much." Zaden adjusted his collar and said with a smile, "I was just teaching a little pig a lesson." Nevertheless, Kevin had seen Zaden and Grace's behavior earlier. He teased with a smirk, "What's going on, have you fallen for her?" Subconsciously, Zaden was about to deny and say that he hated women. Kevin knew about his hatred towards women too. However, he didn't say anything, and he felt that it was strange as well. That's right. Ever since he realized that he didn't
Zaden said with a gloomy expression, "The investigation isn't over yet. Furthermore, you have no say in how I'm going to deal with this." Moira burst into flames, hearing that she was rejected, and her hatred towards Grace multiplied at once. "Dad..." Dulcie asked for a hug once she saw that Zaden was here. Seeing his daughter's swollen eyes and bandaged arm, Zaden couldn't help but feel heartbroken. Nevertheless, this incident was extremely strange. How was it that something happened right when Douglas and Dulcie left the house? Was it really a coincidence? No, he was sure that someone had planned this on purpose. After returning to the villa, Zaden's subordinates came to him to report the results of the investigation. "The man who nabbed Miss Dulcie is a criminal who had once been sentenced for murder. He escaped previously, but we're not sure why he appeared in the mall today. The police are currently dealing with him," his subordinate
