Chapter 107

Grace caught herself, quickly fixing her slip. “I mean, Madison and Leon. I really, hit it off with them. Can we swing by more often?”

Chapter 100 Devin’s eyes crinkled up in a smile. “As long as you’re happy, that’s all that counts. They adore you, just like I said.”

Grace let out a hearty chuckle, about to say more when her phone cut in.

She almost hung up, thinking it was Antonio, but then she saw it was Daisy and answered.

“Grace, Zander told me that you moved because of a wedding. Why do you keep it a secret? I got you a gift. Are you free tomorrow to hang out?”

At the Kaufinan’s home, Daisy was one of the few friends Grace had. She was fond of Daisy, who was only in her early twenties.

Without a second thought, she agreed to have a meal with Daisy the next day.

After they settled on a spot, she filled Devin in.

Devin was cool with it. He asked for the details and offered to drive her there.

Grace felt a bit awkward about it and tried to say no.

But at a red light, Devin turned to her with a shrug. “Don’t worry about bothering me. We just got hitched, and I’m on a break.

What else am I supposed to do? Plus, once you’re done with dinner tomorrow, I thought we could go on a date and get to know each other better.”

That put Grace at ease.

They chatted about their plans, and by the time they pulled into their place, it was 9 p.m.

Grace took a shower and then chilled with a book for a while before heading to bed when Devin walked in.

The room went dark, with just the bedside lamp casting a soft light.

They lay there, chatting up again.

Chapter 109 Devin shared some hilarious stories from his childhood that had her laughing her head off.

She was laughing so hard she had to hold her stomach and wave for him. to stop.

He took her hand, tucked it under the covers, and whispered a good night.

The room went quict.

With the sound of his steady breathing and the warmth of his touch, Grace felt her heart settle.

Remembering the day’s fun and seeing the peaceful face next to her, she felt at home in a way she hadn’t for ages.

It had been three years since her mom passed away, and now, in this new home, Grace felt that long–lost feeling of security again.
