The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife
Chapter 215
Her eyes were red and her tone was firm.
Eleven loved her very much, but he had to pour cold water on her. âMiss, wake up a little. Mr. Fallen is gone. His ashes were buried in the cemetery back in Frant City. Do you remember?â
Graceâs entire body froze, and there was a trace of doubt on her face.
Eleven suppressed a s ob. âStop torturing yourself, please. He will never come back, so you have to let him go. You must have seen wrong.â
âOh, yeah
How could someone who had been dead for half a year appear in a bar in S City?
She was stunned at herself.
Her clear starry eyes gradually misted, and she pressed a hand to her chest, feeling the pain of suffocation again,
When Eleven saw how devastated she looked, he couldnât help but burst into tears too. âMiss, youâre drunk. Letâs go. Twelve and the others have already booked a hotel. Letâs go back carly to rest.â
She got too ahead of herself, and she felt drained after the realization.
After that incident, she really was not in the mood to continue participating in the party, so she simply listened to Elevenâs advice and went back to the hotel.
When they had just reached downstairs, Eric also happened to get out of another elevator and leisurely entered the VIP room at the far corner.
As soon as they entered the hotel room, Grace rushed into the bathroom, turned the shower on, and turned the water temperature to the maximun.
The water was hot, but she couldnât feel it when her heart seemed to be numb and her entire body was cold.
So she let the shower pour on her as she tried to wake up to reason.
Her eyes were already unbearably sore, but she couldnât stop the tears that were still falling quietly and mixing with the hot water down the drain.
She told herself over and over again that Edgar was already dead. He died for her. In this life, he would never come back.
At the door of the rgam, Twelve and Fifteen felt strange when they saw Graceâs state after returning.
âWhen she said that she was going to the party today, her mood was quite stable. Why did she come back in this state? What happened over there?â
Eleven sighed, âShe is drunk. It seems that she saw a man who looked similar to Mr. Fallen which triggered all of that.â
When they heard it, they all sighed in unison.
The next day, when Grace woke up again, she was already completely sober.
She cleared up all the bad mood from last night and officially set off to return to the Smith familyâs mansion.
The Million and Min Hallianat Tru
Chapter 215
The Smith familyâs property was very large. The entire Mt. Galen which encompassed the outskirts of S City was bought by their past ancestors. And it was there where they built the villas which were now surrounded by mountains and rivers.
Graceâs third and fourth uncles all lived on the mountainside. When she drove up, she ignored the two villas and went directly to her fatherâs residence.
The old butler, Uncle Lloyd, had been waiting at the entrance of the villa for a long time.
When he saw Graceâs car stop, he stepped forward and helped her open the car door.
âMiss, youâre back. The master really missed you and is waiting for you in the study.â
âYes. Thanks for telling me, Uncle Lloyd. Youâre working too hard.â
âAh, thereâs no need to be so polite.â
Uncle Llyod was flattered. He turned around and looked at Graceâs bodyguards. They were all empty-
handed. âMiss, why didnât you bring your luggage?â
Grace maintained a placid expression. âI just came back to visit Dad. I donât plan on staying.â
There were too many bad people living in the Smith familyâs property. She was afraid that she would not be able to sleep at night,
She went straight into the hall. Just as she reached the door, she heard the sound of high heels clicking down the stairs.
Lianne wore a limited-edition velvet yellow skirt and matched it with delicate makeup. Every step. she took was graceful. Then her almond eyes just happened to meet Grace.
With well-maintained skin, she and Grace looked like sisters,
Grace, however, only gave her an indifferent passing glance and walked directly upstairs.
Lianne frowned, a little unhappy, and blocked her way.
âThe little miss of our family finally came back after so many years. However, because it has been so long, she gradually forgot the rules and became unruly. She doesnât even know how to say hello when she sees me. After staying in the orphanage for too long, she really grew up uneducated.â
Despite the heavy sarcasm, Grace wasnât affected. The corners of her mouth raised in a taunting smile instead.
âJust because you lived here for a long time, you really think that youâre the mistress here? You want me to treat you with respect like youâre my elderly? Donât you think itâs unbearable?
Lianne glared at her fiercely and gritted her teeth. âWhy not? After, all, Iâm your mother!â
Grace clicked her tongue twice, her red lips stretching into a cold smirk.
âA mother who is only five years older than me. Donât you think itâs disgusting?â
She leaned closer to Lianneâs ear and whispered, âCherish your rich life now, because after I inherit the Smith familyâs property, then you can get out of here.â
âYou!â
Lianne was very angry.
After so many years, Grace was still as arrogant as ever and wouldnât take her seriously.
âI really want to tear her mouth off immediately!â
However, after being reminded of something. Llanne calmed down.
She smiled proudly. âI have something to congratulate you on. Last night, Mr. Grant visited us personally. It seemed like they already agreed to the engagement proposal. Congratulations. Youâre getting married again.â
âWhat did you say?â
Graceâs face changed slightly. âDad had me engaged? How can he decide on his own without asking
me!â
Lianne raised her chin. âGo and ask him yourself.â
Graceâs face looked gloomy.
Lianne watched her leave with a smile, feeling refreshed.
She heard that Mr. Grantâs grandson was tyrannical and cold. He also had a habit of abusing women that when Mr. Grant wanted to force a few his bed, not one of them walked out
women onto standing up. They all had to be carried out while in a daze, and some were even injured.
Moreover, she also heard that because of injuries he had gotten from the frontier battlefield, his entire face was ruined, and he looked extremely ugly.
Lianne covered her mouth and laughed.
If Grace, a little bi tch, really married this kind of man, then it would be a relief for Lianne.
She was so happy that she swayed her hips as she walked towards the small kitchen to check what she was cooking.
As Grace walked through the corridor, she couldnât help but think about what Lianne said. And the more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. She immediately pushed open the study door when she arrived
However, before she could ask anything, she was pinned in place by the sight of her father in a wheelchair, stroking his white beard while hearing a face that was worn out by time and circumstances.
When he saw her come in, his eyes lit up.
âMy daughter! Come to Papa! Did you lose weight?â
Grace walked in with a complicated mood and slowly squatted down beside his wheelchair.
âWhatâs wrong with your leg? Before I left, you were just fine.â
Ethan smiled lightly. âYour dad is old. Itâs normal to get sick, but I miss you every day. Since youâre back, then why donât you stay and accompany me?â
Grace bent down to rub his leg in distress and compromised, âOkay, I can stay for a while, but I canât guarantee a permanent stay. You know I donât get along with that woman.â
âSheâs your stepmother.â
sheâs not! If you say it again, Iâll get mad
âAlright, alright. I wonât mention it again.â Ethan looked at her dotingly and caressed her little face with his wrinkled hands.
Ethan asked a lot of questions about whether she ate well, how she slept, and if she had been bullied.
The two of them chatted harmoniously.
But halfway through the conversation, Grace suddenly remembered what Lianne had just said.
âDad, that woman said that you got me engaged. Is it true?â
Now that she found out, Ethan did not hide it. âYes, Mr. Grant came last night to talk about it, so we made an appointment to apply for your marriage certificate. Itâs his eldest grandson, Eder Grant Grant, a very good young man. I like him very much. Heâ¦â

Ethan then went on and on praising him so that he could not listen to a single word from Grace.
The only thing in his mind was probably just the name Tder Grant Grant,â the grandson of the Grant family.
âEder! Itâs this Eder again!â
What G od did she even offend recentlyâ
Why was this manâs name always haunting her?
It was so annoying!
