"Did you go abroad?" Shawn asked after a moment.

He must have seen her video. "Yep. I was visiting family."

"Your relationship with Mr. Fulton is going very well."

It was a statement.

Grace's voice was full of love as she said, "We're pretty stable right now. Don't envy me, Mr. Griffin. You'll have the same thing in future."

She thought he was envious of her. On the other end of the phone, his lips curved without thinking. "I'm fine."

"No one can be fine. Everyone yearns to be loved. Don't be anxious. That person will appear one day."

She thought she was comforting him, but it made Shawn moody. He picked up the purple clay teapot. "What if she never appears?" "Hmm... Then, I'll introduce someone to you. I don't have much, but I do have a lot of girlfriends."

Shawn laughed again. He was about to speak, but then he heard her cry out in pain.

He said anxiously, "What's the matter?"

"I missed a step while I was going upstairs and fell." Grace inhaled sharply and looked down. Her ankle was swelling up rapidly.

"Is anyone at home? Are you alright?"

Grace did not like having too many housekeepers at home. They usually came to cook and clean during the day, and they all went home at night.
