Chapter 212 The Scheming Man

Grace came down. Imogen took the car keys and went out.

New York City as the provincial capital of J province, was the political and economic center. Tourism developed well. There were several nationally famous scenic spots. Many tourists visited it during the holidays.

Imogen drove Grace to two scenic spots in New York City, took a lot of photos, and walked around the scenic spots by the way.

Grace was alive and kicking, and bought a lot of souvenirs. She said she would bring them to her grandma and classmates.

At noon, Imogen took Grace to eat at a well–known restaurant near the scenic

spot.

The two chose a seat by the window, where they could see the scenery outside. The seat was a bit high, and Imogen carried Grace up. The girl’s short legs dangling in the air, swinging back and forth.

In order to take care of her conveniently, Imogen sat on the same side as her. They discussed and ordered a few dishes.

Grace lived in Lyon and was not used to eating pasta. But it was a foreign country, and pasta was as rich as domestic food.

During this lunch, Grace finally looked like a child who couldn’t walk when he saw delicious food and ate like a little cat.

When she nearly had enough, Imogen took her to the bathroom for a quick wash.

The two returned to their seats, and while resting, they leaned together to check the photos taken in the camera.

Suddenly, the screen of Imogen’s phone on the table lit up, and a Facebook message came in.

She opened it, took a look, and found that it was a message from Erik: [Sister, have you had lunch yet?]

Then, he sent another photo, which contained a lunch box: [I have now joined Marshall Group.] The corner of Imogen’s mouth twitched, and she stretched out her hand to rub the center of his eyebrows.

She thought, “What’s going on with Erik?”

She thought Erik would give up after knowing she was divorced, but she didn’t expect him to still insist.

It may also be that she was thinking too much, Erik might wanted to consult her about the work. He knew her identity and also knew that she was an employee of Marshall Group.

Grace kept glancing at Imogen’s phone screen.

The little girl recognized many characters. She knew it was a man when she saw the word Erik in the note and couldn’t help being hostile!

She thought, “He is the one who chased after Aunt! He is the enemy of Uncle.”

When Imogen was thinking whether to reply or not, Grace who was next to her suddenly made a sound, looked at Imogen with round eyes, and asked innocently, “Auntie, who is Erik?”
