Chapter 124

Late at night, in a small bar filled with both fish and dragons.

Grace, dressed in a low-key black sports suit, sat in a corner, looking out of place among the women with their bare chests and heavy makeup, like a thief.

After waiting an indeterminate amount of time, a man lunged at her, reeking of alcohol.

Grace, glancing up, noticed the man she knew had already taken a seat near her. The scent of the ancient dragon water on him was strong and unmistakable.

“Ashley, you are still as gorgeous as ever. You are truly… captivating me. The man grinned enigmatically at her, his gaze piercing her.

Grace quickly sidestepped, her body covered in goosebumps!

When she was in Nialzuct, she and him would spend all day together. She enjoyed hearing his kind words, feeling his powerful muscles, and most of all, relishing his never-ending bedroom antics.

When she looked at this face again, she only felt revulsion; she wondered how thirsty she had been to have fallen for something so low-level.

He could not compare to his brother Joseph’s celestial beauty from head to toe.

“When did you come back to the country? What are you doing here?” Grace spoke in a hushed tone, her voice tinged with

chill.

“I’m searching for you. With you here, I have a place to call home.”

As he spoke, the man pressed down on her with an evil grin. His fidgeting hand had already crept to the inside of her thigh. After caressing it for a while, he felt it wasn’t enough, so he touched her clothes again. “Tsk, if you come to see me again, make sure to wear a skirt. This is so bothersome…”

“What do you need me for? Grace gritted her teeth and pushed his hand away.

“I want you,” the man paused and smiled. “to give me some money to spend.”

“I already gave you a break-up fee when we split! Are you still insisting on this?!” Grace was so furious her voice was trembling.

“I wager on whether there is a victory or defeat on the table. The funds you provided me are not sufficient for me to demonstrate my abilities. I am aware that you are going to wed the president of the Sawle Group. I caught sight of it on the

news.”

“I believe if you want to have an ideal wedding, you should be able to accommodate my request, correct?”

The man’s words were clearly an act of extortion!

Grace felt a bomb detonate in her heart She spat hatefully. “So what if you go to my betrothed to divulge our past! He adores me profoundly… He will never be concerned about my past!”
