This afternoon was not the same as the previous afternoon. When Grace left the office, Jackson was already waiting in the parking lot. The man waved, as if to let Grace know he was there. Grace stared in confusion. Her brow furrowed as she looked around to make sure that Jackson was indeed waving to her.

"You have to be careful; his behavior is very suspicious today." Shane advised before the man left.

Even Shane could tell that there was something strange about Jackson today. He, who usually never cared about Grace, now seemed to pay a little attention. He, who was usually so cruel and cold, now seemed to be starting to warm up a little.

Grace didn't know what happened when she left Margaret's house last night. However, seeing the change in Jackson's attitude now, she was sure that Margaret had said something that made Jackson change like that. She didn't know if Jackson was doing it sincerely from the heart or just pretending. What was certain was that Jackson was not a man who coul

    "Here are the vitamins." Lindsay gave Grace some pills after she finished lunch. Since finding out what happened last week, Lindsay and Robin decided to move in with Shane in order to take care of Grace. They had missed so many times that Grace had fallen on hard times. This time they would never let it happen again."Thank you, Mom." Grace smiled and said. She downed the pills with difficulty."You have to rest right away after this." Lindsay reminded.Grace just nodded with a smile."Grace! I know you're inside! Come out and see me!" There was a commotion from up ahead.Grace turned her head towards the source of the sound. She frowned, confused by what was going on up ahead.Lindsay seemed to be holding back her annoyance when she heard Jackson shouting. She did not expect that Jackson would continue to interfere with her daughter's life. Grace had chosen to give up, so Jackson should be able to let her go quietly."Don't touch me, damn it! Don't you know who I am? Quickly send Gra

    After a week of hospitalization, Margaret was finally able to go home. Her condition was much better than before. The first thing she wanted to see when she got home was Grace. She felt something was wrong because Grace hadn't come to see her for a week. She only saw her once when she woke up from her coma."Where's Grace?" Margaret looked at Jackson with a questioning look. She really missed her granddaughter-in-law.Jackson couldn't answer. This was because he hadn't been able to contact Grace since Shane had taken her away from home. Grace's belongings were still in her room, including her cell phone. There was no way something that important could have been left behind."You're giving her a hard time again?" Margaret gave him a probing look. Jackson's demeanor clearly showed that he had made a mistake."Mom, what are you asking that bitch for? Look, she doesn't even care about you. If she cared about you, she would have taken care of you when you was hospitalized." Helena commente

    Before Shane could realize what was happening, Jackson had already punched him in the face repeatedly. The man hit him with all his might with no mercy at all. His breathing sounded ragged. His eyes were narrowed, his face flushed with rage."Shane!" Grace got up from the bed when she saw Shane being brutally beaten. Blood was all over his face from his broken nose, as well as the corner of his busted lip. His upper temple had a small scratch on it, and his face was bruised blue from the beating."Jack, stop it! What are you doing?" Grace tried to stop. Even though her head was spinning, she held it together to save Shane."Let go!" Jackson pushed Grace so hard that she fell to the bed. Fortunately, her stomach didn't hit anything, so there was no effect on her pregnancy."Argh." Grace winced in pain. She stroked her stomach because it was cramping. Her stomach always cramped up when she felt panic or stress.Seeing Grace's condition, Jackson stopped his punches. He sighed harshly, lo

    Footsteps approached the room. Jackson looked at his mother with a stern look."Be nice to her or shut up." The handsome man said with emphasis. As if he had just made a threat.Helena could only remain silent with annoyance.The door opened with Grace appearing behind it. The woman came in carrying white jasmine flowers. She stepped inside, then replaced the flowers on the nightstand next to the gurney. Her face looked rather pale. She didn't seem too excited.Jackson stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Grace's face, but Grace immediately brushed it away and showed a very cold attitude. Jackson could only sigh softly, trying to neutralize his feelings."Grandma." Grace called softly. She took Margaret's hand and kissed it tenderly. Her eyes were teary.Jackson could tell how much love Grace had for the old woman."Let's get up." Grace said weakly. She placed Margaret's hand on her stomach. There was a small movement there. The tiny baby inside Grace's belly was beginning to show

    "Grace... Grace..."The mumbling woke Jackson from his sleep. He immediately looked up, staring at Margaret, who was calling Grace's name in her sleep.Jackson quickly pressed the button beside the bed, and soon the doctor and several nurses came to check on him.Helena and Julian also woke up as the room became crowded. Helena looked up with reddened eyes. She had only closed her eyes half an hour ago, falling asleep sitting on the sofa. Looking at the crowd at Margaret's bed, her heart was beating very fast. She was very worried now, thinking that her mother's condition was getting worse."How is she, Doc?" Helena broke through the crowd. She looked up at the doctor who was examining Margaret's condition.The doctor sighed harshly. He smiled a small smile. "She is much better.""Grace..." Margaret said the name again weakly and quietly."Who is Grace? Is Grace here?""She's my wife, Doc. Her condition is not good; she just had surgery the day before yesterday. So I asked her to rest

    "Where's Jack?" Helena looked around; she was searching for her son. Margaret's condition was critical; there was no way Jackson was not at the hospital. Everyone knew how much Jackson loved his grandmother."He's at home, ma'am. I've asked him to come to the hospital, but he doesn't want to. He didn't care when Mrs. Margaret collapsed right in front of him." Margaret's personal nurse said with suppressed fear.Helena stared with a furrowed brow. She fixed the woman with a probing gaze."Grace must have instigated it, right? Look, that woman isn't here either. It must have been her who asked Jackson to ignore his grandmother. He always does whatever she says; he doesn't even care about his own feelings as long as she's happy." Helena accused without proof. She was glad that Grace wasn't there, but she was also annoyed that Jackson wasn't either."You're wrong, ma'am. Mrs. Grace was the one who panicked the most when Mrs. Margaret had a heart attack. She even went to the hospital and w
