In the seventh month of Grace’s stay in France, she received another phone call from her friends back home.
Back then, she had already been living a decent life by relying on the money from selling Antonio’s shares.
She bought a building directly on the busiest street in Paris.
The third floor and above were used as personal spaces, the first floor was rented out to others as a flower shop, and the second floor was rented to the neighbor as a store.
Her daily job was to sit on the balcony, watering the flowers, drinking coffee, and reading the newspaper.
Grace took a sip of coffee and couldn’t help but furrow her brow.
Even after all this time, she still couldn’t get used to the bitter taste of coffee.
She placed the coffee cup on the iron table beside her and then answered her friend’s call.
On the phone, her friend greeted her and the rest of the conversation was spent discussing Antonio and Kenna’s affairs.
Ever since Antonio found out that she had left and exposed him and Kenna’s affair.
He turned his face directly against Kenna.

Not only did Kenna have a miscarriage, but she also got beaten up by Royce and Ciara.
The Kaufman family, who learned about the situation, quickly spent money to suppress these matters.
Unfortunately, it was still a step too late, and these matters spread throughout Boston like the autumn wind.
Because the matter had become too big.
Antonio was not only ordered by his grandfather, who had been in seclusion for many years, to step down from the position of CEO, but also to reclaim all the shares under his
name.
It was not until then that the Kaufman family realized that Antonio had transferred all of his shares to Grace.
It was still completely monopolized by Grace and sold to the rival of the Kaufman Group.
In the end, the Kaufman family spent several times more than the market price to buy back these shares.
With this move, the Kaufman family not only lost billions of dollars, but also their status in the capital circle is not as good as before.
If it weren’t for Nancy’s pleading, Antonio would have been kicked out of the Kaufman family long ago.
In the end, Nancy still gave her son some of her shares because she felt sorry for him.
And Antonio, who was idle at home, spent his days drinking heavily while holding her photo and calling out her name.

As for Kenna, since her affair as a third party was exposed.
The Gardner family cut ties with her, and the Fashion Magazine Headquarters she was working at also fired her.
She had no other way except to rely on Antonio.
Antonio had long lost his feelings for her, and the Kaufman family would not let her in.
In the end, she reached a dead end and caused a scene on the rooftop of the hospital. She said she could refuse to marry into the Kaufman family, but she had to get the money.
The Kaufman family would not give at all, so in the end, Antonio ended up paying for it.
The result was that Kenna drugged Antonio again, this time in the name of taking money.
But this time she was not as lucky as last time, and was sent directly to jail by Antonio, who woke up.
Grace remained completely unaffected after hearing it.
After all, Antonio and Kenna were just two people who had no connection with her.
After chatting casually with her friend for a few moments, she hung up the phone and then stretched, walking towards the
room.
The next day, Grace got up early and went out to the opera house with her new friends to watch a stage play.
The tragic love between the male and female lead moved the audience to tears.

Grace, who had experienced even more miserable marriages, was not moved at all.
The male and female leads in the stage play, despite having experienced separation due to various reasons such as war and family.
In the end, the elderly man and woman with white hair were still together.
And as for her, although she had married her love at first sight in the earlier years, the two of them had been inseparable for so many years.
Did Antonio still betray her in the end?
The marriage she wholeheartedly devoted to ended in a tragic
manner.
She no longer believed in love after that.
So, when she was dining with her friends at the restaurant, she was confessed to by someone.
She was calm, like an emotionless puppet.
No matter how the blond–haired, blue–eyed boy tried to woo her with sweet words, she heartlessly rejected him.
The boy was still unwilling and wanted to ask her the reason for his rejection.
Grace was initially stunned, then she chuckled softly.
“I didn’t want to fall in love, and I wouldn’t get married again.”
The boy finally lowered his proud head, carrying the flowers

A few friends then came to their senses and quickly pulled her down to sit and have a meal.
“Grace, were you too heartless?”
“Even such a good man had to be rejected?”
Grace and her friends grew up in France and their minds were more open.
Everyone felt that as long as they liked each other, they could start dating first, and if it didn’t work out, they could break up.
Grace’s eyes remained calm, but there was a slight curl at the corner of her mouth.
“It’s not that I am cruel, I just didn’t have the intention.”
