Chapter 46

Although Grace looked the same as before, she seemed to have

weathered many storms. She was no longer wearing high-end

fashion but a fluorescent uniform.

Sean was in a daze. The scene of her crawling to him in prison, begging him to believe her appeared before his eyes again.

Back then, her gaze had been eager, hopeful, and pleading… However, she looked calm at the moment.

Like she didn’t need him. Or anyone in this world.

Her strength was a force all its own.

Lily sensed it too and her smile slipped. She was terrified, he realized.

With the cameras and press closing in and snapping photos, what if Grace were to start railing about how they’d treated her and abused her? What if she attacked them for this ridiculous stunt with the ring?

The press would devour such a story and no one would believe that this ring episode that happened at the exact place where Jennifer Steven’s murderer worked was a coincidence.

As it was, it was a stretch for Lily to be anywhere near this neighborhood.

Sean held his breath, waiting to see what Grace would do next.

Lily glanced at him from the corner of her eyes, and he knew that she was thinking the same things as him.

She smiled amicably as she handed the gift box to Grace and said, “This is for you. I’m sorry for making you search for my ring the other day.” Her behavior was entirely different from how vicious she had been previously!

Grace quietly took the gift box without saying a word and turned to leave.
