Chapter 115

---- Chapter 115 Grace sighed.

She couldn't just keep hiding like this.

She dropped the towel and heard Ethan ask, "What happened this time?" Honestly, she did want someone to talk to right now.

She said, "Alice set me up.

She said I pushed her and caused her to miscarry.

Now, my mom wants to lock me up ina psych ward." She leaned back against the seat, her eyes clouded with uncertainty.

She wasn't heartless.

Even after she lost her memory, thinking about it still made her chest ache.

Ethan reached out his hand.

His fingers were curled slightly , and the shape of his nails was somehow elegant.

And just like that, Grace's thoughts veered wildly off-track.

How the hell could someone be this perfect in every damn way? While her mind was drifting , Ethan's hand suddenly opened.

He hada piece of candy sitting in the center of his palm.

With a deadpan look on his face, the whole thing was just weirdly funny.

Her bad mood vanished instantly.

She took the candy and cracked a small smile.

"I'm not a kid, you know." Her fingertips brushed against his palmit was damp.

---- Ethan was a man of few words.

He simply gave Grace a quick glance before looking away.

She unwrapped the candy and popped it into her mouth.

As the sweetness spread across her tongue, the heaviness in her chest started to ease.

However, her phone wouldn't stop buzzing.

Upon checking , she saw call after call from Carmen, Quentin, and, of course, Alice.

They were probably trying to kick her while she was down.

She didn't answer any of them. The car eventually stopped in front of Palm Bay.
