"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
Grace couldn't hold back her anger. She asked angrily, "Do you mean that you would have continued to hide it from me if it weren't for today's accident?" "It's not a good thing anyway. If I could hide it from you for a lifetime, I would!" Gentry argued. Grace was furious but her heart sank when she saw Gentry's expression. Gentry had always been obedient and sensible. There had to be a reason. "Hurry up and say it!" Grace shouted. "The 5 million dollars is the money you received for giving birth to a child." Gentry dropped a bomb. Her ears almost started ringing. Giving birth to a child? "Mom was terminally ill and we didn't have any money for her treatment. You chose to give birth to a child for someone else," he said very faintly. Only Gentry himself knew how painful it would be to reopen such old wounds. It hurt him to reawaken such painful memories for Grace. "The people on the other side were very secretive. You didn't
If Grace remembered what had happened back then, Moira could not even begin to imagine how complicated things would be. Everything that she had at this moment could very possibly disappear and be destroyed in an instant. "No, I need to stop provoking Grace," Moira thought to herself. She had to either behave herself and keep a low profile for a period of time or go all out to get rid of Grace completely once and for all. It was time for her to make a choice. After dinner, Grace stood by the table and served the dinner to the family as usual. Occasionally, she would take care of Douglas and Dulcie. When Zaden was eating, he glanced at Grace a few times and realized that something was not quite right with her. She seemed to be a little different from before. Although she didn't speak in the past, she was energetic and full of vitality. However, at present, it seemed as if her soul had been taken away. When she stood there without saying a word, one would not
Zaden did not know what was wrong with him either. He did spontaneously ask Grace to deliver him lunch at the dining table earlier. When he saw the shock and annoyance gracing her face at this request, he felt comforted for a few minutes. However, now that Grace stood obediently before him, he no longer felt the same feeling as before. Zaden ate his food and commented casually, "As usual, the taste is okay." "This dish could be a little spicier." "This meat is a little hard to chew..." "Your standard is not on point today. How could you be so much worse than usual? Don't tell me that you did this on purpose because you didn't want to send me food?" Zaden asked. Grace was speechless. "Continue being picky! You could be as picky as you want. You won't have the chance to torture me anymore in two days!" Grace could only comfort herself inwardly so that she could stay poised. She must stay calm. She didn't want to fuss over minor matters with this b*sta
