Several people exchanged glances and looked at Grace, who wanted to cut the steak and didn’t want to continue the conversation.
Finally, the communication stopped.
In the evening, Grace bid farewell to her friend who had been driving her home.
He slowly walked up the stairs and returned to his own room.
When she finished washing up and changed her clothes, the housekeeper had already set up the late–night snack on the table.
The female housekeeper saw Grace come out and quietly left while bowing.
Grace sat down on the chair and drank coffee while scrolling through her phone.
The bitterness of the coffee filled her entire throat, her eyebrows had not yet furrowed, when suddenly her phone vibrated.
Grace’s face changed after she finished the call.
The phone call was made by the village chief in my uncle’s village.
The village chief was in a difficult position to tell Grace that ever since her aunt found out about what Antonio had done,

she fell ill.
My uncle took care of my aunt while also teaching the children in the village.
I hope that if she had time, she would come back to see them.
After Grace hung up the phone, a sourness welled up in the corners of her eyes.
From childhood to adulthood, besides her parents, her uncle and aunt were the ones who treated her the best.
During the past few months of going abroad, my uncle and aunt often called her, asking her to take care of herself and pay attention to her health.
And they were also keeping good news and bad news to themselves. If it wasn’t for the village chief calling, she would have been kept in the dark for who knows how long.
At the thought of this, she didn’t even have a late–night snack.
She called the butler to help her book the earliest flight back to her country tomorrow, and at the same time, she got up and went to the wardrobe to pack her luggage.
When Royce and Ciara, who were far away in the countryside, saw Grace suddenly appear in front of them, they were both shocked and delighted.
He quickly pulled her into the house and sat her on the sofa in the living room.
“Weren’t you doing well in France? Why did you suddenly come back?”

Grace placed the gift she had in her hand on their table and said.
“I just wanted to come back and see you all.”
Ciara sighed.
“You, child, it would be such a waste of money to come back!”
As Grace looked at the pain on Ciara’s face, her heart warmed up and she grabbed Ciara’s hand.
“Aunt, I heard that you haven’t been feeling well these past few months, so I thought I would take you to the hospital in Boston tomorrow.”
Ciara shook her head repeatedly after hearing it.
“I was in good health! Don’t waste that money.”
Speaking of the past, Ciara’s eyes welled up as she sincerely apologized to Grace.
She said that if they had known earlier that Antonio would turn out like this, they would never have married Grace to him.
Grace had long stopped getting angry about these things and blaming Royce and Ciara.
After all, she knew a long time ago that Kenna didn’t like her.
When Kenna saw Antonio for the first time, she had already provoked Grace.
“Grace, do you believe it or not, he would eventually become my man.”

Kenna’s desire for victory was so strong in her eyes, but Grace didn’t even care about it.
After all, Antonio loved her so much back then.
Even if all the men in the world were unfaithful, Antonio would not cheat.
But unfortunately, reality gave her a hard slap in the face.
Fortunately, when this incident happened, her relatives and friends all stood by her side and supported her.
Even the Gardner family severed ties with Kenna.
But the one who deserves the most blame in this matter is Antonio.
If Antonio was not willing to cheat, no matter how Kenna tempted him, he would not have any reaction.
But he couldn’t help but be moved by Kenna’s repeated teasing.
