Grace, who was just holding up the ID card happily, suddenly went silent.
âNever mind, forget itâ¦â
Grace suddenly raised and shook her head as Gloria spoke, âI donât know.â Gloria was surprisedâ¦
What did it mean that she didnât know?
As though understanding Gloriaâs surprise, Grace shook her head again, âI really donât know.â After all these things, was it still necessary to ask this question? She curled up her lips: âBut I know, I will suffer in pain whenever I stay with him. I couldnât fall asleep for every single night with him next to me.â
Gloria didnât see Graceâs swollen eyes until now.
âI also know that, the moment I was released from that bar, I was planning to leave this city every moment. Ever since I saw him in the Royal Club, I already lost the courage to love this man. All I could think of was to repay my debt.â She smiled mildly, and was not going to tell Gloria much about âLeonaâ.
Leona was the last bit of warmth and longing deep in her heart.
Gloria was confused by the debt mentioned by Grace. Didnât Sam already admit that Wallis was killed by him?
Then, what was the debt to repay?
Gloria was confused and wanted to ask originally, but apparently, Grace didnât want to say anything more.
Grace was leaving, and Gloria stopped her: âHold on.â She took off the necklace and the ring, putting them onto Graceâs hand: âNo matter where you go, you will need money. I donât know whether you prepare for this. This ring and necklace can be sold for a certain amount of money in the black market.â
Seeing the ring and the necklace in her hand, Grace felt the heavy weight of these two items. Her eyes grew sore, so she wiped the corner of her eyes: âGloria, take care.â She didnât refuse to accept Gloriaâs necklace and ring, instead, she stretched her arms out again to hug Gloria. The sensation of parting reverberated between the two.
Gloria took out all the cash she carried with, âIf you are determined to leave, I wonât stop you. Since, nobody will leave the wealthy life behind and go to live in a city full of strangers. If there is indeed someone like this, then there must be a reason that this person has to leave.â
It was a handful of cash. Gloria really took out all the cash she had and gave them to Grace.
Grace felt her throat dry and sore. She could not say the words of gratitude, yet tears kept streaming down from her eyes.
âDonât cry, donât cry. If you want to go, do it now. Do not return, do not hesitate, do not linger, do notâ¦
worry⦠and do no regret.â She pushed Grace away forcefully, âGo!â
Tears came out unstoppably, but Grace turned around and left hurriedly. She could feel the gaze clearly from behind, as if it was something touchable.
But⦠Take care!
Do not turn around, do not hesitate, do not linger, do not worry⦠In the future, do no regret either!
Her leaving now was very irresponsible, but did she⦠did she have a route of retreat?
Who could give her a route of retreat!
When she walked out of the hospital, it started drizzling. Grace stopped a taxi.
Told the driver a series of location.
She headed toward the James mansion. The car was parked fifty meters away from the mansion, and she got off the car, âSir, please wait for me for ten minutes.â
âAlright, but you gotta hurry up.â
âThanks.â
She trotted to the direction of the Shaw mansion, but she didnât go in. She stopped at a tree on the left side not far away from the mansion, bent down and dug up an iron box from the ground. Her heart was racing, she held the box, filled up the ground hurriedly and scurried to the taxi.
âLetâs go.â
She closed the car door and put that nondescript iron box in a plastic bag that she took from the hospital. The driver in the front asked, âWhere are you going, Madam?â
Where?
âThe airport.â After saying this, she seemed to recall something: âNo, no. Not the airport yet.â
âThen where are you going?â
âSir, do you drive for long distance?â
âYes, I do. Where do you want to go, madam?â
Where? Her brain was working fast.
In order to hide from others, though she had a new identity, still, in caseâ¦
âHangzhou.â
At this moment, Caden didnât expect that Grace had already left this city.
âKern Lo.â Seeing the person in front smiling like a ruffian, Caden called his name coldly. He and Kernâ¦
âYo, isnât this my good brother?â
