Luke raised his wrist and checked the time."Ms. Lewis, the ship is leaving in 15 minutes, but there are only three tickets left. The security guards might have to take the next ship.""How long until the next ship?""An hour."Grace took the tickets from Luke's hand. "It's okay. We can go ahead. It's just an inspection. There shouldn't be any problems.""But Mr. Aaron said that the bodyguards have to follow you wherever you go." Luke was worried, especially since they were going to an island. What if something happened to Grace?While Luke was hesitating, Xander walked toward Grace from not far away.Grace quickly waved at him. "Xander, over here."Seeing Xander, Luke was surprised but also impressed. It seemed that Xander and Grace had a really great relationship.Luke's lingering worry vanished upon noticing Xander. With Xander around, Grace should be safe. After that, the three of them boarded the ship. Grace rarely took boats, so she felt somewhat uncomfortable.Fortun

"Darien, you better turn yourself in. Confess about your crimes, and let those women and children you kidnapped go home. Otherwise, dying a thousand times wouldn't be enough to repent your sins."Hearing that, Darien burst into laughter."Turn myself in? Ms. Lewis, that's the funniest joke I've heard in my life."As soon as he said that, his expression changed. The next moment, he reached out and grabbed Grace's chin."Your family has pushed me to a dead end, making it impossible for me to stay in Frenda. They almost took my life. Since you've cut off my path, then let's all die—"Before he could finish, Xander reached out and forcefully hit Darien's arm.A tingling sensation spread, and Darien felt immense pain. He suddenly lost the strength in his hand.He clenched his fist, but the numbness in his hand showed no sign of subsiding. He looked up and stared coldly at Xander. "What did you do?"Xander's eyes darkened, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Nothing much. I ju

Grace's voice was devoid of warmth, making Darien involuntarily shiver. "M-Ms. Lewis, let's talk things out. It's a bit inappropriate to resort to using knives."However, Grace showed no mercy. She cut through his clothes with the small knife and held it against his bare skin."Talk about what? Those people who were treated like this by you before, did they have room for negotiation?""Release Darien, and we can spare your life," someone shouted at Grace.But she sneered and said to Darien, "Tell them to step back, or my hand might slip."Knowing that Grace wasn't joking, Darien sternly said to his men, "What are you still standing there for? All of you, step back!"The group of men looked at each other. Though they were unwilling, they dared not act recklessly. In the end, they could only step back.Grace was now very close to Darien, close enough to see the pores on his skin. She squinted her eyes, suddenly understanding something."The last time we met, you used a disguise.

Xander stared at Grace, smiling faintly. "Alright, it's over now. Let's go back."…When they got back to Pamore, Grace received a call from Aaron."Gracie, you've grown bold. You actually went to meet someone as wicked as Darien Perez alone. Do you know how dangerous that was?""Oh, Aaron, I'm fine, aren't I? Besides, with Xander by my side, what's there to worry about? Now that Darien has been caught, you can rest assured."Aaron was already aware of the situation.However, he felt that Grace seemed to need him less and less. Such a big thing had happened, and she hadn't even informed him beforehand.He felt somewhat upset."No next time, Gracie."Grace reassured him repeatedly. "I know, Aaron."After a few more words, Aaron finally hung up the phone. Harold stood beside him, looking concerned. "How is Gracie? Is she okay?"Aaron put his phone away and replied, "Don't worry, Grandpa. She has that Fulton kid by her side. She won't stir up any major trouble."At the mention

"Grace, wait."Grace stopped in her tracks, clearly impatient. "Mr. Hawkins, is there something else?""Grace, I—"Before he could finish, a familiar voice interrupted. "Benjamin, what are you doing here?"Susan's face lit up with joy. But the next moment, her expression changed when she noticed Grace beside him. "You're still with this woman? You're really trying to infuriate me."Benjamin looked displeased. "Mom, this is my business. Please don't get involved."Then, he took Grace's arm. "Let's go."However, Grace instinctively pulled her arm back. "Mr. Hawkins, please have some respect."She looked at Susan. Sounding polite yet distant, she said, "Rest assured, Madam Hawkins. There's nothing between Mr. Hawkins and I."Susan couldn't stand Grace's proud attitude. Although she regretted not treating Grace better and seizing the opportunity to connect with the Lewis family, she could only go along with her mistakes.After all, it was too late to rectify them.Fortunately, B
