Grady was struggling to completely trust Irene; his mind was restless and uncertain.

"Grady, why don't you trust me anymore?" Irene asked, her voice tinged with disappointment.

Grady was mulling over Yonas's remarks. He probed again, "Honestly, is all this because you want to marry Yonas? Are your grandfathers discussing the engagement already?"

A chill flickered in Irene's eyes. Denying it now would be pointless once the engagement was official, and her patience had worn thin. "Yes, I already told you. Yasmine was right; Yonas is the one I like. So, what's next on your agenda? Going to the police to get me locked up?"

Irene burst into laughter. "Grady, you're really acting like a kid. Do you think the police would just believe you because of what you said? Where's your evidence?"

Grady's face turned pale as Irene kept going, "Don't be silly. You don't have a shred of evidence, while I do. I have the surveillance of your meeting with Yvette. Whatever you two cooked up has nothing to do with me."

Grady's expression darkened. He knew Irene was right. They had only used their phones to discuss their plan, and even when they met, recording was never on his mind. He never thought Irene would use this against him.

At that moment, Grady suddenly realized Irene seemed like a stranger. She was no longer the cheerful girl he knew in high school. Now, her smile was unsettling. "Irene, you don't..."

"Don't what? Grady, you didn't think I had a thing for you, did you?" Irene purposely lowered her voice just for Grady to hear.
