Chapter 278
The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife
âGirl, thatâs a high level prison. Nick is a serious criminal. Unless I come forward to release him on bail, it wonât be easy to get him out.â
Of course Grace knew.
However, to release Nick on bail, was he worthy?
She began to boost Chrisâs ego, âChris, Iâve always thought you to be the most powerful. I know you will come up with a way to deal with this matter. Donât worry, I just want to get him and make living worse than death for him. After Iâm done, Iâll let you bring him back.â
Chris was silent.
He did not agree, but he did not refuse either.
Grace rested on his lap, her starry eyes watery, and she began to sob miserably: âBrother, you beat me so hard today⦠Now that someone is bullying me, you donât even plan to help me with this. Donât you love me anymore?â
Chris noticed that she was in a cold sweat from the pain, so he quickly took a wet towel and wiped it for her.
Just now, he was really angry. He gathered his strength and beat her quite hard.
Now that he was calm, he was so distressed that he felt uncomfortable.
Even if she wanted the stars in the sky, Chris wanted to pick them off immediately and hold them in her hands.
âHow could I not love you, I promise you, Iâll get it done.â
Her goal was achieved, and Grace heaved a sigh of relief.
âThank you, brother, how long will it take to get him out?â
Just as Chris was about to say, let me make a good planâ.
Grace took the lead and said with a smile, âItâs better to hit the sun than choose a day, howâs this afternoon?â
âIs it that urgent?ââ
Grace did not answer, but carefully held her waist with a bitter face. âHiss, my ass is about to explode drom your beating. Bro, you really love meâ¦â
Chrisâs heart was pounding. âOkay, then Iâll put down all the things Iâm doing today and take care of your business first. Iâll get it done for you before the afternoon.â
âThank you Chris, youâre so kind!â
He sighed and touched the tip of her nose, âLet Laura take you to your room to get some medicine, you need to rest for a while. Iâll call you when Iâm done.â
âOkay.â
With Lauraâs help, Grace walked up the stairs with difficulty.
When she reached the corner of the stairs, she carefully glanced at her brother downstairs to confirm that he could not see her, and instantly switched back to her normal walking posture.
It was really painful when she was flogged, but It was only two strokes in total Laura held back her laughter and shook her head helplessly.
www She knew her husband so well, but how could he not see that his sister was here for Nickâs matter in the first place. Ile just got angry and beat her up and now he has to make up for it.
And said little sister scized the opportunity and plotted against him again.
The two of them entered the guest room on the third floor together, and Laura closed the door behind her.
Grace was very grateful. âThank you, Laura, itâs not too painful anymore so I donât need to use the medicine. Can we chat for a while?â
Laura was not at case. âItâs better to use some medicine, otherwise, the swelling will take at least two days to disappear. I think you donât want the Grant family to find out about it when you get back, right?â
Grace thought about it.
Thatâs right, although because of Ederâs illness, she would not sleep with Eder for the time being, but he would notice if she didnât use the medicine.
Eder loved her so much that he was reluctant to do anything to her. The and her eldest brother was very stiff, and he endured it all because of her.
If he found out that her brother had beaten her up, he would blow up! By then, it would be a bloodbath!
tionship between him She managed to ease her elder brotherâs attitude towards Eder, so she had better be careful.
Chris always keeps his promises half afternoon, Chris sent a few bodyguards to send Grace to the unfinished buikling in the suburbs. In the dilapidated room in the middle of the seventh floor, a man mumbled.
squeak-
The house had been there for many years, so when the door was pushed, it clacked loudly.
Nick had a cotton cloth in his mouth and was tied to a wooden chair with a black bag over his head.
Hearing someone come in, he stopped struggling The black bag on his head was lifted, and the strong light contrast made him unable to keep his eyes open. After his sight gradually adapted, he looked at the person coming.
When he saw that it was Graceâs cold and beautiful face, he smiled.
When Grace took out cotton cloth from his mouth, he couldnât wait to say, âGrace finally figured it out. I said you will come back to find me. Quick, untie me.â
Grace did not move, she slightly raised his chin and looked at him from above.
Apart from the coldness, disgust and sarcasm, there was no other emotion in those eyes.
Nick immediately sensed that something was wrong and looked around. âIt seems that you didnât come to save me, but did she come to ask about Mr. Storm?â
Grace took out a small transparent glass bottle, only the size of two thumbs. Those cold eyes carefully studied the liquid in the glass bottle.
âI already know about his illness, so youâre of no value to me now. Iâm not very happy to see you living a peaceful life in prison.â
Nick also stared at the glass bottle in her hand, feeling that it must not be a good thing.
15:51 The Mulinaire and His Bonaire Ex whe He laughed, âyou deliberately got me out, do you want to kill me and vent your anger on Ederâs behalf?â
Graceâs cold eyes narrowed. âIf you die, itâll be over too soon. Itâs too lenient for you. However, you have to pray for Eder, If he dies, you will be buried with him!â
Nick laughed out loud.
âSounds like Eder is critically ill. Thatâs great, if he dies you can be only mine! I donât believe that you will kill me, we grew up as childhood sweethearts. You canât kill me!â
âHeh, are you also planning on proposing love me?â
Graceâs eyes gradually turned cold as she held the glass bottle in front of Nickâs eyes.
âI got this from my brother. Itâs a bottle of specimens from his previous research on Altaâs rare disease.
I heard that the disease will fester within a few months and cover the infected body with poisonous sores, a life worse than death.â
Nickâs azure blue eyes suddenly tightened as he looked at her in disbelief.
She continued, âThe only good thing about this disease is that itâs not fatal to the body. Itâs just the intense pain at the onset, and itâs so ugly that no one can see it Many people canât bear it, they have mental breakdowns, and choose to commit suicide.â
âGrace! Youâre so cruel!â
She grabbed his prison uniform, her eyes filled with strong anger.
âWhen you used a biochemical virus to harm me, when you harmed Eder, were you not cruel then?â
She loosened the collar of his prison uniform and took two steps back. âCome in.â
Two bodyguards arranged by Chris immediately entered the room respectfully.
âMiss, what would you have me do.â
âServe Nick Knight the medicine!â
âYes Maâam.â
The bodyguard took the glass bottle from Grace with both hands.
Grace retreated to the door, leaned leisurely on the door frame, took out a wet tissue, and elegantly wiped off the hand that touched Nick.
Nickâs was pinched on his chin by the bodyguard and forced to open his mouth.
He looked at Graceâs coldâblooded eyes, so cold he could find no warmth.
Nick shouted at her as the bottle of medicine was about to go into his mouth, âGrace! Arenât you.
curious about how I got to know so much about Eder even in prison? You donât want to know the secret behind me?â
Grace sneered and was unmoved. âI can find that out myself, and if I find them, they will be like you life would be worse than death for them!â
Seeing that she was determined to let him swallow the medicine, Nick finally had a hint of fear in his blue phoenix eyes.
âWait! I know how to cure Eder, donât you want to save him?â
