The Lies He Told Me (Grace and Antonio)

The Lies He Told Me 192

By the weekend. Grace packed her things and left the Kaufman's residence.

Carrying her suitcase, she happened to bump into Antonio as he was coming home. She wanted to avoid seeing him, but now she had to talk to him.

Noticing his serious stare, she put down the suitcase and explained briefly. "Mr. Kaufman, since I'm married, I plan to move out."

Antonio's voice was icy. "Don't make

your marriage the topic of every conversation. Do you think I'll forget? And also, you're not part of this family, so feel free to move out whenever you like."

His words hurt her. Where was the Antonio who had made love to her so many times? The man in front of her was not the same.

Grace sensed his anger and didn't say anything more about the topic.

"Before you 'move' though, I have next week off and will be vacationing in Drakoria with Livia. Make a travel plan for us.

She just nodded, moving her suitcase aside, and walking to his study room where she sat and started to take notes.

From the hotel to personnel, from the weather to preferences, Antonio talked for over half an hour, going into meticulous detail.
