The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 225

Chapter 225
Eder’s brain was blank.
‘Edgar?’
He had never thought that this name would come out of Grace’s mouth during her moments of vulnerability. Was she calling him Edgar?
Did this prove that she actually had at least some feelings for him?
He was confused and tangled for a long time before he finally decided to summon the courage to speak.
“Grace, actually I…”
Before he could finish speaking. Grace angrily tugged at his cuff.
“Edgar! If you lie to me again, I’ll dig your grave, fish your corpse out, and have it whipped three hundred times!”
‘So violent….
The words he originally wanted to say retreated at the back of his throat.
He sat down on the edge of the bed, thinking.
Grace didn’t love him anymore. He knew it all along.
As the dead ex-husband, his only role seemed to be the punching bag for when she needed someone
to blame.
If Grace found out that he had fabricated a huge lie to deceive her, she would hate him and never give him a second chance, right?
His heart felt heavy as he silently sat on the edge of the bed and watched Grace sleeping.
He had spent all his time begging for this engagement to happen because his biggest regret was divorcing her on the spot back then. He was afraid to lose her again.
Since confessing would make things worse, then he’d have to let her accept the fact that Edgar was gone forever.
He would start over with her as Eder!
Grace slept uneasy, her eyebrows tightly knitted so that even in her sleep, she looked fierce.
Eder carefully smoothed the furrow between her eyebrows with his hand and leaned over to gently

kiss her forehead.
Then he went to the bathroom and twisted the towel to help her wipe her face and hands. Finally, he went to the closet to get a new quilt and made himself a sleeping space on the sofa.
The whole night was of Eder having a hazy sleep.
He was awakened by the sound of the door being unlocked.
Before Grace woke up, he lightly walked out the door.
Uncle Alfred was outside the door. His eyes narrowed in a smile. “Have you and Ms. Smith managed to get along last night, Sir? Did you two…”
He made a gesture of his thumbs facing each other.
Eder’s expression stiffened. He ignored that topic. “When Ms. Smith wakes up, let her have breakfast with Grandfather before leaving. If she doesn’t want to, don’t force her.”
“Yes, sir.”
Eder first went to the next room to wash up, and then left the villa afterward. Just as he reached the door, he heard a voice from around the corner.
He listened carefully. It sounded like Eric.
The other one seemed to be Fifteen.
“Tifteen, you’re here too early. Ms. Grace is not awake yet. You might have to wait a little longer.”
“It’s alright. I’ll wait. But she didn’t drink last night again, did she? She already drank a lot at the banquet, so if she had more, she probably got drunk again. She really thinks that she’s the same strong drinker as in the past.”
Fifteen sighed deeply.
Eric felt strange. “What happened to her?”
Fifteen hesitated. “It’s all in the past. We have orders to never speak a word about it ever again or it would be deducted from our salary.”
“Hey, tell me. It’s just the two of us here, and I don’t run into her often, so she won’t find out. And I’ll keep quiet.
Eder was about to leave but when he listened further, he walked back to find out more.
Fifteen: “Well do you remember six months ago when Mr. Fallen died? Since the day he was buried, she locked herself in his room and did not eat nor drink for three days. She cried her heart out and even drank all the strong liquor on the wine cabinet on an empty stomach! Her body couldn’t take it at all, and her stomach almost burned through. Since then, her physical health deteriorated,”
He was shocked.
“Ms. Grace…she actually…
“Sigh. Well, she is a stubborn person. In fact, she really cared for Mr. Fallen but was too stubborn to admit it. She could not accept his death for a long time and had a difficult break down. Anyway, it’s all in the past.”
Eric was puzzled: “Really? But I heard that Ms. Grace is romantically interested with Mr. Grammer recently.”
“Mr. Grammer? Fifteen was puzzled. “Where did you hear that from? Apart from Mr. Fallen, she had never taken any interest in other men.”
Eder did not listen to what the two of them said next.
His whole mind was buzzing.
Fifteen said that Grace really cared about him.
Because of his death, Grace cried for days.
She even drank so much that she almost burned her stomach…
It turned out that the person he loved also actually loved him back.
When she said that there was someone she liked, it wasn’t actually Adrain. Did she mean that she liked him?
Eder’s whole body was shaking. His mood could no longer be described in human words!
He had never been so surprised like this.
He had never, for once, even dared to imagine that Grace would return his feelings…
With red eyes, he turned around to enter the villa to find Grace,
He couldn’t wait to tell her that he was still alive!
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Boss, where are you going?”
