Chapter 282
The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife
In a simple, blackâandâwhite study.
Eder took the cigarette from Eric, put it in front of his nose, and took a few puffs.
This action, if it was someone else, would probably look a bit wretched.
However Ederâs gestures were noble and elegant, and his aura was cold and sharp, giving people the feeling that he was drinking champagne.
After smelling them for a minute, he threw the cigarette into the trash can without hesitation.
It seems that the cigarette stick had reached the end of its life immediately.
But seeing the stick of cigarette lying in the trash can, whole and untouched, Eric had his ey widened and he looked at Eder in surprise, âBoss, you didnât. smoke?â
eyes Eder rubbed held his forehead and calmly said. âThere will be a residual smell of smoke in my body and in this room. She is too shrewd and can always detect something amiss. Besides, smoking is not a good thing.â
Just take a few puffs is enough so he will not be addicted and will not be discovered! Great!
Eric nodded thoughtfully.
âLater when you leave, take the trash with you âYes, Boss.â
Maybe it was a kind of selfâcomfort, but after Eder smelled the stick of cigarette, he felt much more comfortable.
He felt that this method was quite good, besides, it will not be too easy for Grace to discover it, doing it a few more times is not a bad idea!
âThis brand of cigarette smells good. Eric, when youâre free in the afternoon buy some for me and hide them all in a drawer.â
âHide them in the villa..?â
Eric took a deep breath and stare at him with a very uneasy smile, âBoss, youâre so bold! This is like committing a crime under Miss Graceâs nose!â
He was on the verge of being beaten, he felt a little jumpy.
Eder gently rubbed the center of his brows with his slender fingers disapprovingly, âShe has a lot of things to do during the day, and she doesnât often look through the drawers when she comes back at night. If you look for a drawer in a secluded corner, she wonât find it.â
Really?
Eric felt that the information is too unreliable.
Or, was this his bossâ way of saying that he is a masochist, so he is deliberately seeking for abuse? He hasnât been hit by Miss Grace for a few days so heâs been missing them again?
He remembered the last time Eder was beaten up, he even gave him a raise!
He secretly sighed, but did not dare to ask directly, how could a proud and excellent man like Eder Storin Grant admit that he had that special hobby.
However, since the boss liked it, as his subordinate and brother, he had to support him no matter what!
Not hearing Ericâs answer, Eder glanced to his side with dark eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly, âDid I make myself clear?â
Eric noticed his subtle gesture of raising his eyebrows and nodded frantically, âBoss, donât worry! As long as you like it, Iâll definitely live up to your expectations, but⦠boss, you have to really think it through⦠Heâs afraid that Miss Grace will not be anymore gentle with her beating, what will he do if his body canât take the beating?!
Eric is very worried and his heart felt very complicated.
Eder canât understand what he is thinking and just stared at him with his cold black eyes.
Eric felt sensible: âI understand! I understand! Iâll go ahead and do it right away and make sure itâs done properly!â
He exited the room gently closing the door for Eder.
Eder glanced at the door twice, thinking:
He doesnât know why, but today, this dog. Eric, gave him an extremely bad premonition.
Recently, Abigail was filming a new drama.
Itâs about the growth of inspirational women in ancient dynasties with a big production.
The script is very good, and the director is also a wellâknown person in the industry.
th Pauric, Abigail won the female lead in the show. If she seize this show, she would have a chance to compete for the Hundred Blossoms Awards at the end of the year.
Grace was very happy for her, so she went to Film and Television Base in S City in the afternoon to visit the set.
When she arrived, Abigail happened to be on a break.
Abigail smiled brightly when she saw her in her gorgeous and exquisite ancient costume, and waved at her. The emerald rings clang along with her.
Grace smiled and walked over to sit beside her.
The two of them chatted about their recent affairs and Abigail suddenly remembered something serious.
âBy the way Grace, this morning, the group received an invitation from the Grammer family. Itâs Miss Sarahâs birthday party. The Grammer family invited us to perform a few shows. Do you know about this?â
e yet.â
Grace frowned, âIt was sent this morning? Your manager hasnât reported to me Abigail lowered her eyes and thought seriously, âWith Sarahâs personality, I think this Grammer Family will be filled with elite people. What do you think?â
âThis Sarah Grammer had always been arrogant and conceited. She looks down on stars in the entertainment industry. This time, she actually invited you guys to join the fun. Itâs obviously directed for you.â
Abigail lowered her head and stopped talking.
Grace patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, âDonât be afraid, just go and have a look. With my third brother and I here, you donât have to worry. We will protect you.â
âWell, Iâm not afraid. I trust you.â
The Millionaire.
Grace smiled. When she thought of Sarah, her eyes shone brightly, âItâs been a long time since for things to be this lively. If Sarah really dares to cause trouble at her banquet, Iâll help her and turn the Grammer family upside down!â
Abigail stared at her intently and was deeply attracted by her arrogant starry eyes.
Grace came back to her senses and remembered the matter between Abigail and her third brother.
âAbby, tell me honestly, do you really like Patric? Do you really want to be⦠with him?â
Abigail lowered her head, remembering the agreement she made with Patric, and nodded, âIâll just go whatever it is that he wants. If he gives up in the future, I will also do the same.â
Grace didnât speak anymore, and sighed softly.
Her father had always attached great importance to the ârightâ family. Back then, when she married âEdgar Fallenâ in Frant City, her father was strongly against it, but because her father favored and love her more, she didnât suffer that much from this matter.
If her father finds out about her third brother, Patric, and Abigail in the futureâ¦
She wonders Patric will be treated leniently like her.
After a busy day, Grace returned to the villa on time.
In the garden, Ederâs customâmade house stone had already been made and sent over, it says âGolden Castle Residenceâ made with elegant and unrestrained hold red alphabet.
She suddenly felt very warm in her heart, and unconsciously walked faster.
She hadnât seen her spoiled baby for a whole day, so she missed him a little.
The moment she opened the villaâs door, she didnât even see what was going on in the living room when a tall and handsome figure rushed over from behind the door, tightly hugging her waist, resting his chin on her shoulder.
âGrace, I missed youâ¦â
The manâs magnetic voice gently spoke of his thoughts.
Grace felt her heart sweet. Her long, fair hands caressed his back and coaxed him gently. âThen Iâll take a day off tomorrow and accompany you at home, okay?â
The corner of Ederâs mouth curled up into a smile.
âThatâs great.â It would be even better if he could hold her to sleep at night.
But he was content.
After dinner, the alarm clock rang. It was time for Eder to take his medicine.
Grace went downstairs from the bedroom, poured water for him, and opened the corresponding pills in the medicine box that was piled high on the locker. Took out a few pills each box accordingly and put them in a transparent medicine box.
Out of the corner of her eyes, she inadvertently glanced at a small slit in the bottom drawer under the locker.
Grace eyebrows narrowed.
The content inside seemed a little unfamiliar and deliberate.
She felt strange and opened the drawer.
Itâs a cigarette caseâ¦
