LOGINGrace~3 Years Later…It took alot of time to finally get rid of that old Grandma. In the end, the Calders, who were fighting each other for power, killed each other. Their family was gone, and so was their hold over the business world.Everything that Ethan built crumbled under his arrogance. And t
Grace~Six Months Later…Tristin found the child’s father after running the DNA data in the system. It turned out that Selena had a one-night stand while she was away for a year and conceived Alexander.I was relieved, but the news that came after just made us all settle into a phase of acceptance.
