---- Chapter 125 Grace was admitted to the psychiatric hospital, and Noah personally led her to a ward. She was locked inside a spacious room. "Grace, you'll be staying here for a while," Noah said.

Bending down, she picked up a jagged shard and stabbed it into her thigh. Blood poured out instantly.

you don't want this turning into a murder scene, do you?" ---- Hendricks was so frustrated he nearly lost it. She was right there in front of him, gorgeous as ever, and he still couldn't touch her. It was driving him insane. "Grace! Don't be like this! Jesus, are you really that disgusted by me? It's just sex. What's the
