Chapter 226

Eder sighed softly. Remembering Tifteen’s story made him feel guilty.

“Go on. I’ve made her life so miserable for the past six months so I have to give something back and stop feeling like I owe her anything.”

Eric paused, hesitating.

He didn’t owe Ms. Grace anything anymore!

But Eric also knew that Eder loved Grace too much and would do everything in his power to please her.

He loved too deeply even at the expense of himself.

Eric felt really sorry for his boss but there was nothing else he could do.

Grace woke up.

The first thing she did was to check her body for any hickeys.

She belatedly noticed the neatly folded quilt on the small sofa.

It seemed that Eder did not take advantage of her last night.

He was actually willing to sleep on the sofa, which proved he was a clean man. He was different from the rumors she had heard before.

She still remembered everything that happened before she was drunk last night.

It was an emotional rollercoaster for her, after all. However, she was under the influence of the wine, hence, her feelings got the best of her.

Now that she was sober, she realized that Eder’s matter was too strange so she had to investigate further.

When Mr. Grant invited her to have breakfast together, she immediately wanted to refuse. But she thought of Eder and changed her mind.

At the dinner table, she took advantage of the interval between chatting with Mr. Grant and interjected tentatively:

“Grandfather, I heard that Mr. Storm only returned six months ago. I saw him last night. He is very handsome, but why are there rumors that he is ugly?”

Mr. Grant’s expression did not change. “‘After establishing a foothold in the city, too many ladies wanted to stick to him. He didn’t like it, so he spread the rumors.”
