The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife
Chapter 212
She sat beside the tombstone with her head leaning against his stone tablet, as if she was leaning in
his arms.
âThese days, Mia has become much more obedient. I have already let her into the Fallen Group to start her studies. You gave me all of the company shares, but I donât have the energy to take care of the Fallen Group anymore. When she can handle projects independently, I plan to slowly let go.â âEd, without you acting like a spoiled child to me every day, my life is going to be so boring.â âRecently, Iâve been dreaming about you, you know? You told me that you werenât actually dead. You said that you were lying to me on purpose. In fact, you wanted to see if you were important to me. How great would that be if it was actually true?â
Her voice was very soft as she spoke.
Two crystal tears rolled down her cheeks.
She closed her eyes and hugged the cold stone tablet with her small hands. It was as if she was hugging his waist, snuggling into his arms, and falling asleep
The bodyguards who accompanied Grace were asked to wait in a shed fifty meters away from the cemetery. From there, they could not see what was happening.
It had been an hour, and their madam still hadnât come out yet.
One of the bodyguards, Fifteen, couldnât sit still anymore and went straight to the cemetery with an umbrella.
However, as soon as he got closer, he was slightly caught off guard with the scene in front of him.
Grace was leaning against the stone tablet with relaxed brows, as if she had fallen asleep.
She did not have an umbrella and she was covered with snow from head to toe, yet she didnât look unkempt at all Instead, she looked like the picture of a desolate beauty.
Fifteen knew that she had always placed Edgar in a special part of her heart. However, she had been stubborn and wouldnât acknowledge her own feelings.
Unfortunately, now that he was already dead, it was too late to say anything else Eric had also left. And when he bid his goodbyes, he said that he would most likely never return to the city again.
The bodyguard sighed softly, missing the days when the few of them played poker together.
He gathered his thoughts and quickly ran forward to give Grace an umbrella. He helped her brush off the snow on her body that had not yet melted.
âMiss, itâs getting late. Letâs go back. Donât you want to check on Ms. Fallenâs work this afternoon?â
Grace slowly woke up and left the cemetery without saying a word.
Back to the Fallen family.
Mia was already standing in the office and waiting.
Because the heater was on inside, Grace took off her fox fur coat and walked over to the office chair td sit down.
Mia was trembling a little as she handed the project she had spent the entire night writing.

Grace took it expressionlessly, read it carefully, and used a pen dipped in red ink to draw a circle as she cruelly pronounced the sentence.
âThereâs a mistake here. This sentence is complicated and awkward. I said that the words used in writing the project must be brief but concise. Itâs always best to be simple and easy to understand.
There are typos here and here too. Remember, every time you finish writing, you must always double-
check it for any errors,
The more she heard Grace, the colder Miaâs heart became.
She pursed her lips as if in a fit of anger. But instead of speaking out, she took the initiative to spread out her palms and stretch her arms forward. âI see. Next time. Iâll pay more attention. Go ahead with the punishment.â
Grace glanced at her strangely. She was hanging her head, staring at her toes, and swallowing nervously.
Hearing the sound of a drawer opening. Mia immediately stiffened. She closed her eyes tightly and waited for the familiar sensation of pain.
However, the expected pain never came.
She opened her eyes suspiciously and found a chocolate candy on her palm.
âI wonât hit you today. This is the first time you learned to take the initiative to accept the punishment.
Very good. This is your reward.â
âReally?â
It was the first time that Mia heard that she did not need to be punished. She was so overjoyed that she looked at Grace as if she was an angel.
âThank you, Grace! Youâre so kind! I will study even harder!â
âWell then, letâs go down.â
Mia happily held the candy and left.
Grace watched her leave and shook her head helplessly.
She had never been with children before, and because she was the youngest daughter in her family, she actually had no experience in educating someone else. It was always the other way around.
However, there was a saying: Even though one has never eaten pork, at least one has seen a pig running.â So even if she had no knowledge about being a teacher for someone, she at least had witnessed something similar.
And it was with her eldest brother. It was how he treated her back then. He wasnât too strict nor too indulgent. He would punish her for her mistakes and would later give her sweets. From him, she learned that it was best to give both kindness and strength.
Two months later.
Mia was not particularly a fast learner, but she was taking it seriously.
Grace checked her project and finally found no issues. She was very relieved. âVery good. The next time I give you a project, try to do it yourself.â
Mia nodded, âOkay, Iâll do my best, butâ¦â She looked hesitant.
âBut what?â
âCan I ask not to work overtime tonight? I have something to do. I want to go out for dinner⦠The more she spoke, the softer her voice sounded, and her ears were a little red.
The Millionaire and
maire lâa mile
âOh? Going on a date?â
Only then did Grace notice that she was dressed up today and had a delicate expression on her face.
âItâs with a boy, isnât it?â
Mia bit her lip shyly and nodded.
âWhatâs he like? Whatâs his family background? Do you still remember your promise before?â
âDonât worry, itâs just an ordinary family, but heâs been very kind to me. Heâs helped me a lot at work, actually and⦠Heâs quite handsome, but weâre just starting out. Weâre not stable yet.â
Embarrassed, she rushed to say, âI wonât say anything else. I have to go back to my station and clean
up
Grace hummed softly and watched her leave.
If the
guy was able to help Mia a lot at work, then he must be an employee of the Tallen Group.
She called Belinda and asked her to investigate quietly.
As it turned out, it was discovered that the person was Kade June, a regular employee of the planning department where Mia was currently stationed.
Grace was surprised because both Kade and Belinda were people she had brought up from Dark Bell and were specially placed to work in the Fallen Group. She could at least trust Kade.
The next day at work, Grace quietly called him to the office.
âDid your date go well last night?â
Kade felt embarrassed and touched the back of his head. âBoss, how did you know?â
âAre you serious about her?â
Kade nodded, âI heard about her conflict with you before. Actually, when she just entered the company, I originally wanted to help you set her straight. However, the longer we interacted, I gradually found her interesting. Yes, she can be willful and domineering because of her upbringing. but sometimes she can be cute. I really like her.â
âAlright then. Get back to work.â
Grace did not interfere too much with Miaâs personal life. Anyway, the relationship between the two was going fine.
Three months later, Mia and Kade held a grand wedding ceremony at Easley Church.
On the same day, Grace transferred 40% of Fallen Groupâs shares under Miaâs name.
Before the ceremony, various business partners and CEOs gathered around the giant tower cake table on the lawn to drink and chat
Grace had never liked such occasions, so she sat at on a table in a quiet corner and sipped champagne with Tom.
The Mellis family was also invited. As soon as Emma and Jack arrived, they headed over to where Grace was to chat.
Grace hadnât seen them for a few days, and coupled with her sharp eyes, she immediately noticed that Hedda was not there.
Emma smiled helplessly and explained, âThat child has no sense of compassion. No matter how antuch her dad and I persuade her, she wouldnât budge. As soon as her legs recovered, she ran to Wind City.â
âWind City?â

Grace smiled and did not say anything. It seemed that Hedda really wanted to be her second sister-in-
law. Her second brother could be considered a difficult person. However, it would depend on Hedda if she has the ability to chase after him.
Emma gave Jack a wink, Jack found an excuse and went to the side with Tom to socialize.
When he was gone, she approached Grace and said in a very low voice, âI heard that you gave 10% of the shares to Mia? Their family treated you like that before. Arenât you worried it would happen. again after she gets the shares? Did you even think about that?â
Grace smiled casually, âWhatâs there to be afraid of? Since I can give it to her, I can take it back at any time.â
Besides, Belinda and Kade were planted in the company to monitor what was happening. Even if Mia and Yvonne were really going to act up, they would never be able to fight Grace.
Emma thought about Edgarâs death and felt regretful. She asked. âSo you really have handed over the Fallen Group. It seems that Angle Group Group is also acting as
the handover agents. Are you planning to let them do all the work while you sit idle and collect the money?â
Grace shook her head gently. âAfter all of this, I plan to leave Frant City.â
âLeave? Where are you going? Emma was surprised.
Grace raised her head and looked at her.
âs City.â
