Chapter 34
Alden and Drake were so preoccupied that they completely ignored
Arianna and, without even discussing it, said to each other, “Let’s split up and search, each going in a different direction!”
Not knowing where Grace could have been, they could only hastily contact people to investigate.
However, before they could split up, Grace’s Instagram updated with a new video.
The caption simply read “honeymoon“.
Seeing this, they almost didn’t dare to click and see. Their hands squeezed the phone so hard that it almost shattered.
After a long silence, they still clicked on the video.
In the video, Grace smiled sweetly, walking hand in hand with Antonio. on the beach. The sea breeze blew their hair, creating a warm and romantic scene.
Although the two of them had no intimate gestures, they inexplicably gave off a feeling of being unable to intervene.
Bang.
Alden got so angry that he threw his phone out.
The mobile phone was instantly completely scrapped, but he still couldn’t stop his anger.
Chapter 34
Drake was not to be outdone either, and he clenched his fists in anger, looking towards Arianna beside him, his gaze darkening.
Since it is not possible to apologize to Grace in person now, you should apologize to the entire online community. The news will be delivered to her and she will always be able to see it!
As soon as the words fell, he took out his phone and opened the live
stream.
In no time, the live broadcast room was quickly flooded with countless people.
There is no other reason, only because this was Drake’s first livestream, which shocked countless fans.
“Say sorry to Grace!”
12000
Drake threatened, and Alden silently agreed.
Arianna on the ground was in despair, tears already streaming down her face, but she choked and asked, “If I apologize, will you let me go?”
“I really couldn’t do anything anymore, I would stay far away from you all!”
Drake’s expression turned cold as he said, “Rest assured, once you have atoned for your sins, there will be a place for you.”
Upon hearing this, Arianna didn’t think much and thought she had found a lifeline. She confessed everything she had done.
She really couldn’t bear the torment anymore, she just wanted to live well.
At first, when netizens saw her disheveled appearance, they felt a bit sorry for her.
After all, they also recognized her, the girl on the ground was the girl who had been brought on stage by Drake to thank her at the Golden Phoenix Awards ceremony that day.
Little did she know that in just a few short days, her situation would change drastically.
However, after hearing about the things she did, netizens began to overwhelmingly criticize her.
For a moment, news about Arianna instantly shot up to the top of the trending list.
Grace also came across the news feed and saw these videos. Seeing them, she instinctively furrowed her brows.
“What’s wrong?” Antonio asked, noticing her pale face. He held two coconuts with straws inserted into them, placing them on the table beside him.
After seeing the news on her phone, her heart was inexplicably lifted for a
moment.
“Would you forgive them?”
He asked nervously.
Upon hearing the words, Grace turned her head and comfortingly placed her hand into his palm, intertwining their fingers.
“Don’t worry, I didn’t forgive them for everything they have done to hurt me. I just feel that it is the three brothers who should apologize to me, not Just Arianna.”
“It was their indulgence of Arianna that allowed her ambition to swell, and what truly hurt me was their attitude.”
Chapter:
“However, all of these are not important now, I just didn’t want to be discussed online.”
The direction of public opinion changes every day, and I don’t know how netizens will follow the trend tomorrow.
She had no interest in being discussed online.

Antonio grabbed her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.
“Don’t worry, leave it to me, they wouldn’t have affected you.”
Grace looked at his serious profile and suddenly smiled.
“How amazing are you,
Ar all?”
“It naturally had to wait for you to discover it slowly.”
The frost in Antonio’s eyes instantly dissipated, and he smiled tenderly.
Antonio took action, and shortly after, other news broke out, and hardly anyone discussed the dispute between Grace and Drake anymore.
Alden and Drake both received warnings.
It was a warning issued by the government, instructing them not to do anything that could potentially affect Mrs. Kaufman’s reputation..
Seeing the warning message, both of them had equally dark and gloomy expressions.
Bryce, who was in closed training, also saw the news and knew that Antonio had taken action.
He, however, did nothing but longingly caress the smile on Grace’s face on the phone screensaver
It had been a long time since I had seen her.
He thought that time and distance could cut off his thoughts, but his

longing for her grew deeper and deeper.
Countless memories from the past have been replayed in my mind countless times.
But he constantly reminded himself not to go see her.
He couldn’t let her hate him.
Alden and Drake, however, were not willing to give up.
They bought another villa in Crestwood Heights and lived there for several days, waiting for Grace’s return from her honeymoon.
“Grace…”
Alden’s voice was hoarse, his eyes were bloodshot at the corners, and he stared at Grace intently, wanting to deeply imprint her face in his mind.
‘Drake’s eyes were also the same shade of dark blue, and his complexion was somewhat pale and fragile.
“Grace, I’m sorry.”
“It was our fault. Arianna and her mother have already been dealt with by us, and they are currently at the police station. She has received the punishment she deserved. We have realized our mistake. Can you forgive us?”
Before the last few words could be spoken, Grace quickly interrupted.
“Could not.”
“You should have apologized to me in the first place, but I don’t want to forgive you.”
Chapter 35
At that moment, Alden and Drake were both unsure of what to say.
They truly regretted it, but they were extremely helpless.
They have always been unable to deal with her.
Before they could continue to persuade them, Antonio’s men had already surrounded them.
“Mr. Hawthorne, please leave.”
A group of black–clad bodyguards surrounded the two individuals, mercilessly blocking their way.
Alden pushed aside one of the bodyguards and quickly made his way to Grace, his eyes dark and intense.
“Grace, did you fall in love with Antonio? What does that make us from before? When you came to me that day, were you trying to confess your feelings to me? Was that love letter meant for me?”
His voice trembled as he spoke, and he finally asked the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.
“I’m telling you now, I was willing to marry you, willing to wait for you to get divorced and come back to me, willing to be your backup option, don’t give up on me, okay?”
The man, who had always been high and mighty, also lowered his head at this moment, begging desperately.
Grace, however, did not hesitate to lean on Antonio’s chest and firmly said,
“No, that love letter wasn’t for you. I never thought about confessing to you, nor did I want any alternatives. You’re just my brother, Alden. Stop
it, I don’t need you anymore.”
“And you, Drake, you are the same. I have already started a new life, and I have started to like Antonio. You should also move forward.”
She said, holding Antonio’s hand, she wanted to leave.
Antonio turned around and gave them a stern warning, then, as he looked at Grace, his eyes were filled with tenderness.
“Grace, it’s too noisy here. How about we move to a different house?”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
Grace had no objections.
This upscale villa area had good security and environment.
The only ones who argued were Alden and Drake.
They looked at Grace’s back in disappointment.
Only do older brothers‘?
In the past couple of decades, they never entertained this thought.
From the moment they laid eyes on her, they considered her their future
wife
How can they accept it now?
Didn’t you apologize? Why?
Alden and Drake were filled with loneliness from head to toe.
When Alden returned home, he unintentionally upset Grace, just like he used to do when they were children. As a result, he wrote an apology
