Chapter 9

Grace went to the hospital alone. Luckily, the cut wasn’t deep. After a quick bandage, the doctor said she’d need rabies

shots.

“But I’m leaving the country soon and probably won’t come back,” she muttered, though the doctor heard her.

“Then get them abroad. They’ve got rabies vaccines too. No worries. Life goes on,” the doctor reassured her.

Grace smiled, thinking to herself, “Yeah, life goes on.”

Her phone buzzed with another message from Janelle. “Got my period, unexpectedly. He’s worried, so he washed my underwear for me.”

First, Janelle bragged about Antonio washing her feet, and now this?

Janelle was laughing while he cleaned the bloodstains.

She sent the message to rile up Grace, but Grace didn’t fall for it. Instead, she just got busy cleaning the apartment.

Nicole had called a few minutes ago, saying Lewis had sorted everything out, and Grace could leave anytime.

Then Nicole texted: “Come and get your stuff.” She shared her location.

Grace headed downstairs to catch a cab, but as fate would have it, she ran into Lewis at the entrance.
