The Lies He Told Me (Grace and Antonio)

Chapter 59

The next morning, Grace went to school with Laney as usual.

"Grace, did you hear? My brother asked Keyla to be his date for the company's anniversary celebration tomorrow. The message is pretty clear, don't you think?"

Laney never liked Grace. Besides finding Grace too nosy, she could see her brother didn't love Grace.

"If you have any self-respect, you should let him go. He Keyla.”

When Antonio wasn't around, Laney always spoke to Grace in a disrespectful tone. Grace was already used to it.

"Laney, I'm leaving soon. Until then, don't push your luck."

Laney had never seen Grace lose her temper before. No one besides her brother had ever dared to talk to her that way. She was angry, but something told her that it was better not to piss Grace now.

"You better mean it."

The first thing Grace did upon arriving at school was submit her resignation. She gave away all her books to colleagues, taking only a few personal items.

Out of the campus, Grace exhaled deeply. If not for Antonio, she never would have forced herself into a job she didn't even like. Luckily, it had only been three years, not a lifetime.
