Chapter 961
“He had almost lost control just now. As he was licking and kissing her fingers earlier, his lust only grew stronger
and stronger. ‘Almost… Almost… I almost had my way with her in
the kitchen!’
Even if he had decided not to love her, even if they were now broken up, and even if he only called her Sis now, her
influence over him was as strong as ever.
She had only looked at him with her almond-shaped eyes and it was enough for him to lose his soul. At that sight, all
reason was thrown out the window.
“Tell me. How can I not love you…” His mutters rang in the silent bedroom.
‘I thought it was hard to love a person, but I fell in love with
her so easily.
‘I thought it was easy not to love someone, but… It’s so hard…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Grace… Grace…” His hoarse voice cried out her name again and again as if it was the only name he knew…
When Grace went to work the next day, everyone in the firm looked at her differently.
Many people came up to Grace to ask about her relationship with Brian, to which Grace replied, “I have nothing to
do with him.”
They approached her out of curiosity but left disappointed.
Andrea Schwartz looked at Grace, her teeth itching with envy. She thought Grace was dead meat yesterday and she
would be fired from the firm. However, such a plot twist happened instead.
Now, she could forget about kicking Grace out of the firm as many people were probably trying to get on her good
side instead!
Even the colleagues from yesterday who criticized Grace for being a homewrecker were now caring and attentive
to Grace, looking for all sorts of topics to talk about with her.
Andrea Schwartz felt so depressed that she wanted to throw up!
“The trial starts in three days. Sort out the information.” In the office, Lawyer Carter talked about what to look out
for in court. Grace was already familiar with this.
“Alright,” she replied. Then, she asked, “Lawyer Carter, is it really impossible to change the defendant for this
case?”
“We don’t have enough evidence. The court will look at the full chain of evidence, but the evidence we have is
insufficient to form a good chain of evidence. You’re a lawyer too. You should get it,” said Lawyer Carter.
Grace’s eyes darkened. ‘Of course, I’m aware!
It was just that she hoped Baldwin could get compensation and good treatment.
‘Otherwise, what’s the point even if we win the case?’
After they were done talking about work, Lawyer Carter
asked, “What’s your relationship with Mr. Brian? Can you tell
me?”
Grace could not answer Lawyer Carter the same way she answered her colleagues, so she said, “I have a cousin
named
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStella who’s one of Mr. Hart’s friends.”
Lawyer Carter did not ask any more questions but talked more about the case.
When Grace came out of the office, a text message ringtone rang on her phone. She took out her phone and saw
that the
text message was from Kyla Corbyn, but the contents were clearly not written by her.
Kyla: [Aunty, Mommy fainted.]
Grace immediately dialed the number, and it was Nelson who
answered.
“Nelson, what happened?”
“Aunty, Mommy fainted. What do I do?” There was a hint of sobbing in Nelson’s childlike voice. After all, he was only
four years old, so it was natural to be afraid of such situations.
“Where’s your grandmother?” asked Grace.
“Grandma… Grandma went out to buy groceries. I called her,” said Nelson. He had wanted to call Grace, but his
mother previously told him she was at work during the day and he could not call her, so he sent a text message
instead.
