Looking at Zaden's scrunched-up face, Grace wanted to laugh out loud in satisfaction. "All right," Zaden said with a face full of humiliation. While they were talking, Douglas and Dulcie were busy entertaining their friends as the hosts. "Look! They're my parents!" There was pride in Dulcie's voice. She held her head high and said, "Aren't they super good-looking?" Children were competitive by nature. Having grown up with the lack of motherly love, Dulcie was more sensitive and eager for attention than other children. Every child would think that their parents were the most handsome couple in the world. Admittedly, Dulcie's 'parents' were in a different league. "Yes!" The other children all supported her and praised her. "Your mother is so beautiful, and your father is also very handsome, but... it would be great if he didn't look so sour." "Hahaha..." Dulcie laughed. "Don't mind him. My dad's always like this!" For a child her age,
As soon as Grace entered the house, she bumped into Zaden. He had come down from the stairs, looking for her. "Mr. Andrew," Grace called out to Zaden. She walked up to him and said with an expressionless face, "Moira is here. She's just outside. She's clamoring to come in to celebrate Douglas and Dulcie's birthday. Jayce can't hold her back any longer. What should we do?" In truth, everyone was curious about other's affairs. To want to gossip was a human's instinct. Therefore, Grace was very curious about how Zaden would resolve this matter, but she didn't want to appear too curious. According to Zaden's narcissistic personality, he would definitely think she cared about him. It would be bad if he misunderstood her. Hearing this, Zaden frowned slightly. He had a headache when he heard Moira's name, but he had to deal with it. At least, he had to come forward and drive her away. So, Zaden walked out of the door. "Grace, you better not poke your nose i
Grace was really mad. She had been taken advantage of by that son of a b* tch, Zaden! Ever since she had been bullied by Zaden a few times, Grace had already consciously avoided this situation from happening again. However, she had never imagined that she would fall into his trap this night. She blamed herself for being overly curious and nosy. Sure enough, curiosity kills the cat. Grace silently swore that she would never meddle in other people's business in the future. Although she was reflecting on herself on the inside, her hands were busy pushing Zaden away. She wanted to end this kiss as soon as possible. However, Zaden was completely in control of the rhythm. After learning from his previous incidents, Zaden felt that he was becoming more and more adept at kissing Grace. It was also in this long kiss that Zaden's anger finally calmed down slowly. Perhaps this was a good way to calm himself down? After she was released, Grace quickl
"That's usually not allowed, but you can be angry with me." Zaden knew that Grace was avoiding him, and she knew that he was looking at her. "Grace, if you're willing, we can be more than just employer and employee—" He was about to say something, something dangerously long coming, but Grace had been unwilling to face it. "Mr. Andrew, the traffic light has turned green," Grace interrupted Zaden's words. The impatient vehicles sounded behind him, and Zaden could only helplessly turn around and drive. Later, Zaden did not bring up this topic again along their drive to the restaurant. Grace originally thought that this was only one of Zaden's many tricks, including sending Douglas and Dulcie away. But when she entered the restaurant and found that the whole restaurant had been booked with only one open table in the centre, she realized that this was not something he had done on a whim. Zaden was serious. That uncomfortable feeling was even growing
Grace felt as though she was sitting on pins and needles. Even before the movie began, she felt as if she was about to go crazy from the environment and the atmosphere. She held popcorn in her arms and fed it to herself to ease her tension. Zaden glimpsed at her and said, "Didn't you say you were not hungry? I bought only one bucket. What am I supposed to eat if you finish it?" Grace quickly handed him a popcorn bucket and said, "You can have it." Zaden didn't take it from her. He opened his mouth and let out an 'ah', waiting for Grace to feed it to him. Grace only felt that she was about to lose it. The popcorn bucket in her arms was like a hot potato. She threw it into Zaden's arms and scolded him, "Are you handicapped?" After saying that, Grace didn't dare to look a Zaden. She picked up her only drink, bit into the straw, and drank it. When she was nervous, she would unconsciously bite the straw. Soon, the circular straw had flattened out from her
Moira had never been so embarrassed in front of her friends. Her hatred for Grace was growing. How was she to explain that Grace was the vixen who had taken her children and her man? Moira didn't know how to explain it, but her silence made Anerly's imagination run wild. What was Zaden doing? Even if she wanted to stand up for Moira, she was not brave enough to stick her nose into other people's business. Both sides fell into an awkward silence, except Zaden. And in that situation, it was not appropriate to greet each other. Grace was annoyed. Previously, she had told Moira many times that she had no feelings for Zaden, but now Moira had caught her holding hands with him at the cinema. Wasn't this... Grace exerted a little more force, wanting to escape Zaden's grip. As a result, Zaden clenched his fists even tighter. Ignoring Moira, Zaden held Grace's hand and said affectionately to her, "What are you waiting for? Don't you want to
"Yes." Douglas nodded his head coolly. Grace was speechless. Did she owe the Andrew family in her last life? Why was she suffering from the trio's bullying... The only worry Miley had about Zaden finding a partner was that her grandchildren would not like her. Since Douglas and Dulcie liked Grace very much, she didn't have to worry about her at all. Miley happily looked at her grandchildren and said, "I like her too." Zaden was extremely pleased with himself. It looked like he was one step closer to making Grace his wife. The only thing he needed to tackle was Grace herself. Grace was already on the verge of going crazy. She felt like a rabbit that had inexplicably fallen into a wolf's den and was about to be devoured by its family. Zaden knew that Grace definitely wasn't at ease, so he didn't intend to torture her even further. "That's enough for today, Mom. We're leaving." Zaden stood up and said, "Douglas, Dulcie, let's go." The
"Think about it," Zaden suggested seriously. "What's more, don't you like them very much?" This time, Grace did not immediately deny it. She lowered her head. As she tried to push away the man leaning against her neck, she ordered him to stand up straight. Zaden's achievements were by no means accidental. At least he's made progress in this. He immediately put away his casual attitude and showed his usual posture when negotiating business. "Grace, I am serious. I mean every word and every suggestion I've said to you. Be my girlfriend, please?" "It doesn't matter if you lie to me, but can you lie to yourself?" "Grace, are you sure you don't feel anything for me?" Zaden was closing in on her, and Grace had nowhere to retreat to. She could only dig for answers from her heart in such a tense situation. She felt like a small boat on the sea, teetering on the verge of collapse. "Don't force me, please." After holding it in for a long time, Grace fina
