All Chapters of You Beg for Another Chance, but I've Moved On: Chapter 31 - Chapter 37

Camila had been looking for William everywhere, but he was nowhere to be found. Patrick was still outside, seeing off the guests with a smile that looked more like a grimace. He walked Aaron and Tessier to their car, saying, “Mr. Aaron, Mr. Tessier, I hope our future cooperation will be smooth.” Aaron glanced at Patrick’s face, amused by the scars marring it. “Mr. Whitmore, you should see a doctor. Your face looks terrible,” he said. “Although… I guess we can’t really call you Whitmore, can we? That’s not your name.” The two directors got in their car and left. Patrick went back into the living room with a dark expression. He strode straight to Melanie. “So this was your plan? To humiliate me?!” The one who couldn’t accept the truth was Melanie herself. She still couldn’t figure out why everything had fallen apart when she had prepared everything so carefully. Melanie grabbed Patrick’s arm. “Baby, I can explain—” He shook her off roughly, grabbed his jacket, and headed for the

“Grace…” William glanced around the room, but it was empty. She was gone.Did she leave? Didn’t he tell her she couldn’t go anywhere?He pulled out his phone and immediately dialed her number.It rang a few times before she finally picked up.“Where are you?” His tone was sharp.“Cab,” Grace answered curtly.“Where are you going?”“None of your business, Will.” Her voice was deliberately irritating.“You’re going to see Theo, aren’t you?

So if there’s any cheap gossip, it’s coming from your affair with her.”William went silent for a moment. When he spoke again, his voice was softer. “Didn’t I tell you to stay in the room?”“That room disgusts me,”

Because Barbara had called, Grace had no choice but to return to Donovan Hall. But the moment she stepped into the living room, her eyes locked on a figure she could never forget. Frank.Years ago, Melanie had sent her to the countryside, to Frank’s house. He had later become her foster father.Now, on that luxurious sofa, Barbara sat laughing sweetly with Frank. “Grace grew up in the countryside. Thanks to you, she was able to get a good education. Now she’s the young Mrs. Donovan, and I adore her.”Frank, broad-shouldered with a blind left eye, chuckled with pride. He used to be a drunk who beat his wife. Now, sinking into a soft leather sofa, his one good eye roamed over every corner of Donovan Hall. The lavish décor and priceless antiques lit a greedy spark in him.In front of Barbara, he played the part of a decent man. “Barbara, you’re giving me too much credit. Grace hasn’t caused any real trouble since joining the Donovan family, has she?”Barbara laughed again. “Of course not
