Chapter 635: Grace Surprisingly Appears at the Pace Family

Tina merely gave a symbolic smile, as the past grievances had yet to be resolved. "My father is currently with guests, he will be out soon. Please wait a moment, dinner will also be ready shortly," Boris explained before attending to his tasks. Tina sipped her tea, "Is this meant to intimidate us?" Natalie was unimpressed, "If Leo wanted to intimidate me, he wouldn't resort to such low-end tactics." It was clear that Boris wanted to intimidate them personally. Tina laughed softly without responding.

After about an hour, Tina and Natalie were still being ignored. Boris was busy with something, and Leo had not left his study. Only when the servants had prepared the meal and called everyone to the table did Leo finally emerge. Boris hurried over, helping Leo along with a woman by his side. "Everett, when did you arrive?" Leo, visibly surprised to see Natalie, greeted her. Natalie slightly curled her lips, glancing inadvertently at Boris, "I've been here a while. Mr. Pace told me not to disturb you, so I didn't come over." Tina, meanwhile, looked meaningfully at the woman beside Leo and smiled.

Leo glanced at Boris, his words tinged with reproach, "Boris, didn't I say to bring Everett and Tina to the study after they arrived?" Boris, head bowed, replied, "Dad, I just got distracted."

He looked affectionately at the woman on his right. As they took their seats, Tina spoke up first, "Grandpa Pace, no need for introductions, I know Miss Hancock." The woman was Grace! Tina had considered that meeting Stephanie might eventually lead to encountering Grace. She hadn't expected Grace to appear here, a former convict dining at the table of a former bureau chief of the X Bureau, truly remarkable.

glass and alcohol made her smile seem somewhat sinister. "Miss Reed, I didn't expect to meet you here today. I offer you a toast as an apology. I was foolish before, please forgive me." Grace's method of apology was evidently more polished than Stephanie's, leaving no room for criticism. This was in front

She bowed her head, genuinely remorseful, "I was very upset at the time, and Stephanie said some things that provoked me. I couldn't help it... I was wrong, I was too impulsive." Boris quickly interjected, "Given the

Tina even more curious. How did Grace get connected with the Five Poisons? When she had encountered the Five Poisons, she was posing as Grace. If they had no connection, how could it be Grace? Moreover, without the help of the Five Poisons, Grace wouldn't have been able to get into the X Bureau, even if she cracked her head open.
