Regret Came Too Late

Chapter 268

Grace turned around to walk out of the room, but Ethan grabbed her wrist. His grip was so strong that it hurt a little. She quickly yanked her hand free and took a few steps back, massaging her wrist.

The corners of Ethan's mouth dropped as he said in defeat, "I'm sorry."

"It's fine. I'll go call Mr. Bennett." She left just as she finished her words and went to Tim's room.

"Mr. Henderson has some wounds on his hands. Go to the front desk to get a first aid kit and help him treat his wounds."

Tim didn't even open the door, but he was a bit confused about the situation. He didn't understand how Ethan had injured his hands when he had been just fine throughout the ride here.

"Ms. Lambert, I'm currently working overtime right now and don't have the time. Sorry, but I'll leave it to you."

Grace took a deep breath, unable to refuse. She knew that she, as one of the employees accompanying Ethan on this business trip, would be held responsible if he ended up getting tetanus.

She quickly went to the front desk and asked for a first aid kit. But when she returned to their floor, she was stopped by Jodie.

Jodie didn't bother to hide anything anymore since Grace already knew about her feelings for Ethan.

"Is Uncle Ethan hurt? Give the first aid kit to me. I'll go take care of his wounds."

Grace would be more than happy to let someone else go. So, she immediately gave the first aid kit to Jodie and went straight back to her room for some sleep.

However, after lying down for a few minutes, she heard Jodie crying. It seemed that Jodie had been kicked out of Ethan's room.

"Serves her right," Grace thought.

Just when she was about to drift into sleep, her phone made a sound. It was a message from Ed.
