Grace was walking around the museum when she felt as if someone was watching her, she ignored this feeling but couldn't get rid of it. She looked back when the strange feeling didn't stop to clarify but didn't find anything suspicious in that room.
She kept walking and got the same feeling again after some time, she looked back again and it seemed that someone was indeed watching her and had just hidden behind the wall for she saw someone's head creep behind the wall, into the other side of the museum. She had a bad feeling about it but gathered her courage to look once. She walked in that direction and her heartbeat increased with each step, anxiety took over her and she was nervous about who could it be and if something bad was about to happen.
She looked behind the wall and there was no one, she sighed in relief and was about to turn back when she saw a sticky note on the wall. Her heart skipped a beat, she slowly got it off and looked at it.
It said, "It's g
It had been a year since Cora and Grace had started dating and since the last time they had seen Ava but they still sometimes talked to her. Grace did talk to the trio as well. Emily and Harry were planning to move in together soon. And as for Elijah, he had a boyfriend. Yup, a boyfriend. After college he got a job in a company and started working there, a coworker of his got a crush on him and chased after him and Elijah soon realized that he was bi and started dating him. They both live together now.As for the single squad, Lia and Austin, they tried dating each other and it worked out for they couldn't date anyone else because of their tight schedules but they had the same job so it worked out. Grace and Cora were obviously still dating and Grace was soon going to graduate from college. As for Grace's squad, they still went around complaining about things and Grace had a lot of fun with them. Although Cora didn't like them because Grace loved to hang out with them and thu
There was complete silence in that room for a few seconds and Grace was starting to get anxious for William hadn't said anything.He smiled after some time and looked at her. "There is no doubt that she loves you so much and has changed so much, just for you." He said and smiled softly, which he rarely did. "I do think it is partially our fault that's she's this way (anxious and insecure) and I'm guilty of that. I promised my wife to give my children the best life but I think I ruined it. So if there is a way to amend it, I'll surely do it."Grace smiled and was relieved that everything worked out in the end. Alisa was happy for them and hugged Grace while Oliver was confused but accepted them after digestion of the whole situation.William called Cora inside after that and she was confused to see everyone so happy."You chose the right girl, brat," William told her and she smiled and was relieved."Thanks, grandpa." She said and was on the verge o
They entered the mansion and the guard guided them to where Cora's family was waiting for her. Three people were sitting in that room, her mom, wearing a red dress and looking like an older version of Cora; her father and grandfather wearing formal, looking similar in looks, the way they sat, and the cold expressions. Grace was quite scared of meeting them. She knew that her parents had accepted them but it was only her mom, her dad was just cooperating for he feared that Cora would leave the country and he wouldn't have an heir. Gabe sat silently in the corner, he also didn't like his dad much cause he wasn't even given a chance after he was involved in the accident. Mr. Oliver Abel just put a title of useless on him and pretty much threw him out of the company.Cora took a deep breath and entered the room, holding Grace's hand for she didn't want to run away anymore, she wanted to face her fear and show them who she was, whether they accepted her or not.Grace was re
It was raining heavily, the weather was slowly getting colder and people started going back to their homes. Some were enjoying the rain, getting wet and dancing on the roads. Some were complaining about the weather while others were enjoying it, feeling at peace as if the rain washed away all the negativity. While some were reminded of the dark past and were crying, the rain accompanying their tears.Ava was still sitting in the cafe, alone but was at ease for she had finally moved on. She was able to get out of her lies and accept reality. Unknowingly, Grace had helped her free away from her past. Ava decided to change herself and become a better person. After thinking for a long time, she took a deep breath and she called her father and told him that she was coming back. Her father was surprised and asked if everything was alright. She replied positively and further told him that she would try to be a better daughter this time. He was relieved and happy; deep down he thanke
"But everything happens for the good. I'm happy with who I am now; I can accept myself as I am and I am loving myself which I never did before." Grace said and looked at Ava, her eyes were a little gentler. Ava started to feel more comfortable. "It's better to just move on. Let's just believe that we were just strangers who accidentally crossed paths and it all led to all this chaos. But I don't hate it, I don't blame you either. Cause it was because of all that that I met someone special and who makes me feel like I deserved to be loved, who has made all of my insecurities vanish." She started smiling without even realizing it. Ava noticed it and realized that she had already lost her and there's no use in trying to get her back for it would just hurt them more. The room was filled with silence again but there was no tension anymore. They were relieved for they had told each other everything they wanted.In that silence, Grace found her answer. It was love that she felt towa
Ava was standing right in front of her, holding a bouquet; looked at her as if Grace was her everything as if she had finally found her other half. Grace was startled by what had happened but the very next second she glared at her in anger. She was reminded of all those horrible things that Ava had done to her. Ava was confused to see that sight; it seemed as if something had changed as if the person in front of her was a complete stranger. Grace took a deep breath and walked towards the car, ignoring Ava completely for she didn't want to talk to her, she didn't want all that pain back, she had to protect herself this time.Grace sat inside the car and slammed the door. Cora was getting more anxious every second, but she didn't say anything and just firmly held her hand. Grace squeezed her hand lightly and rested her head on Cora's shoulder."I'm okay," Grace said and Cora smiled faintly.They went back to the mansion and everything became normal in no time caus
