"I said, apologize!""In your dreams!" Yvonne still wasn't scared. "I'm the daughter of a family that's actually rich and powerful. Apologizing to an old lady like you? You must be crazy!"Hestia seized Yvonne's collar and slapped her again. "The insolence!" Yvonne had pissed her off so much that Hestia wanted to slap her a third time, but the former dodged her hand.Grace discreetly gave Hestia a thumbs-up and whispered to her, "Nice one, Aunt Hestia.""Of course. I can take care of trash like her quickly enough, can't I?" Hestia smiled back. "All you have to do is stand back when I'm around."Grace felt like she was loved unconditionally, seeing how Hestia had defended her, and her gaze was filled with adoration.Now, this was what family was supposed to be like. She didn't need to curry favor by trading gifts for affection, and they would stand up for her even if she hadn't done anything for them.Meanwhile, the slap had been so forceful that Yvonne needed to lean on a near

"Then go home for a day or two, and return immediately after the anniversary." Because of Danielle and Alexander, Benjamin had always had endless patience with Yvonne. This time was no exception.Yvonne put a hand on her belly, but her expression became more and more cunning. This time, she needed to do whatever it took to stay in Pamore. She didn't want to stay in this cursed place for a moment longer. She would like to see how Grace was supposed to seduce her man if she were dead.Meanwhile, after Grace had chased them out, her mood improved, and she spent a while talking with Hestia about her travels.When the exhibition ended, Hestia called the mall to shut the place down so that the staff could dedicate themselves to serving her and Grace.By the time they had finally finished shopping and got home, it had been hours. Grace collapsed onto the couch. "You really are the woman who traveled the Malakkan Strait. Your physical endurance is superb. I am in awe," she babbled.

"Drive, Gracie!" Grace hit the pedal to the metal, and in a flash, the silver sports car disappeared from view. On the way, Caleb kept scrolling through social media on his phone.Every now and then, he showed Grace something he had found."Look, some of them think you're my childhood friend turned lover.""And this one says we met in Mardovia before falling in love at first sight.""This one's even more ridiculous. It says Mom had arranged our engagement since birth."Grace shook her head, speechless. "The internet sure has some crazy theories.""Oh, and—""And what?""And there's people insulting you …"Grace shot Caleb a murderous glare. "I want to punch you!"The sports car sped on through the night. However, a dump truck suddenly switched lanes and veered in Grace's direction quickly, showing no signs of stopping.Grace sensed something was wrong and tried to steer out of harm's way, but it was too late. There was a flash of white, and then—All the hairs on Grace's

Grace giggled with a hand on her mouth and glanced at Caleb. "Nothing. We weren't talking about you at all.""You'd better not be trash-talking me," Lydia warned. Caleb, who was usually a chatterbox, suddenly stopped talking. "I'm going out for some fresh air," he said, putting on a distant attitude in front of Lydia.When he walked outside, his smile gave way to a cold glare the moment he saw Benjamin standing there. Blocking the doorway, he said loudly, "You're not welcome here."Benjamin gestured for Larry to hand Caleb a fruit basket. "Please give this to her.""Get out of here with that!" Caleb waved his hands dismissively. "Our Gracie doesn't need shit like this from you.""Is she awake?" Benjamin didn't really take Caleb seriously. A handsome guy with no substance like him wasn't Grace's type at all. But with Xander … Benjamin smelled a threat."She's awake, and she's fine. Now leave." Lydia spoke up from behind Caleb and moved to block the doorway with him, forming a pe

At 9:00 pm, Grace and Zoey arrived at the cocktail party. It was a gathering for the big guns in the entertainment industry. Of course, people had brought their close friends with them as well. Grace was dressed in a long, elegant dress with a ribbon on it. The moss green material was smooth and silky, devoid of any wrinkles. It clung to her curves perfectly, and her collarbones were bare of any jewels. She looked extremely elegant.She was outstandingly beautiful and attracted stares from all directions the moment she entered. Everyone was shocked that the chief editor of Global Entertainment Magazine was so well connected that she had managed to invite the rumored partner of Simon to come with her. However, people kept a respectful distance due to GEM Magazine's status.Zoey still had the same chilly attitude when it came to socializing. She would stiffly acknowledge toasts made to her, and it was Grace who helped her mingle around. "I feel like I'm able to stay longer
