Chapter 306

Seeing her silent, Eder furrowed his brows even tighter and asked. “Grace?”

Grace regained her composure and explained seriously. “He has a secret. I always feel that it’s not simple. But tonight. I took the medicine he gave me to the lab for testing, and it worked. Be really know how to cure you.”

pr “Since he can give you the medicine, what conditions did you agree to Eder asked skepöly “Release him and grant him freedom,” Grace replied.

Eder didn’t quite believe it. “Is that all?”

“Yes, but I don’t know what evil intentions he might be hiding. However, he is solated and belpless right now. Even if he tries to stir up trouble. I doubt he can make much of an impact Grace discreetly squeezed her palms, changing the subject. “Eder, it’s getting late. Lets go to bed and think about these matters later.”

Eder’s expression became serious, and he didn’t let her lead him astray. If he really knows the antidote to $404, he holds my life in his hands. With such a significant bargaming chip, did he co talk to you about his release?”

“…” Grace concealed her uneasiness and laughed a little. “How would I know? Perhaps he has other plans, but he hasn’t told me vet.”

As for Nick’s last two conditions, once Eder found out about them, he would defined resist and refuse to inject himself with the medicine Nick provided, Grace also needed to caretly consider how to continue dealing with Nick, how to extract more useful information from him, and how to my to uncover the whereabouts of the antidote..

wom Seeing that Eder was still not giving up and wanted to inquire further. Grace larily massaged ber shoulders, her eyes filled with exhaustion. “Ive been busy all day, and I’m really red. Eder, le talk about it now. We can discuss it later. I’m going to sleep.

“Grace…” Eder was unwilling to let it go Grace cupped his face and gently kissed his thin lips, solemnly completing their bedtime ritual.

“Goodnight. Eder, be good.” Grace said softly.

Eder, feeling helpless, responded with a lack of energy. “Goodnight.”

Grace said. “You should sleep first. I’ll wait until you fall asleep before returning to the adjacent room.”

“Okay.”

He obediently curled up under the covers and closed his eyes to sleep Grace quietly watched his sleeping face for a while, and when his breathing gradually became calm.

she turned off the light for him and closed the bedroom door before returning to the adjacent roNMIS Once she left. Eder slowly opened huis eyes. His pitch black eyes stated at the ceiling, calm and emotionless Grace wasn’t very good at lying, and he could see through all her lule actions.

From her behavior tonight, there must be something she is hiding and refusing to tell him. The more she remained silent, the more it indicated that Nick’s demands for the exchange were not as simple as they seemed But Grace was going through so much hardship for his sake, and it pained him to see that Since she didn’t intend to speak, he wouldn’t push further. He could investigate on his own!

Just as he was thinking, he heard the sound of a door closing in the adjacent room. Though it was soft, it was quite noticeable.

Eder immediately sat up on the bed, carefully closed the balcony doors and windows, and then called Eric.

Eric, who was asleep, was awakened by Eder’s phone call, feeling exasperated. “Boss, can’t you give me all your instructions at once? Three phone calls in one night, and every few hours? It’s really exhausting!”

Eder lowered his voice, sounding ominous. “It seems like you’re not too willing to do this task.”

Eric panicked, “No, no! I’m more than willing! I’ve decided not to sleep and play games all the time, ready to obey your orders at any time!”

Eder fell silent for à moment, then softened his tone a bit. “Consider tonight as overtime, and tomorrow, go to the finance department to collect double the subsidy on your own. Don’t say I’m being harsh on you.”

Eric’s drowsiness instantly disappeared, and he became energized all over.

“Come on, boss! You’re the most generous leader in the world. I love you so much!” Eric exclaimed.

Eder furrowed his brows, feeling disgusted by Eric’s last remark, and his face turned grim. “Don’t love me. It’s futile.”

He belonged to Grace! He wouldn’t even give a single strand of his hair to anyone else. Not even to another man!

“Cough, cough, cough. You’re getting worked up! Boss, don’t misunderstand. You can trust me: I’m a straight guy! Unbendable!” Eric quickly clarified.

Eder was too lazy to banter with him. He was serious, saying. “Send someone to investigate Nick’s whereabouts after his release. Capture him at all costs. I want to interrogate him personally. We need to resolve this matter quickly and try not to alarm Grace.”

“Understood, boss!”

Due to staying up late the previous night, Grace was in a deep sleep.

Eder woke up early and personally went out to select fresh fish and shrimp. He busied himself in the kitchen for a few hours but didn’t see Grace coming downstairs.

Quietly, he slipped into her room and silently crawled into her warm blanket.

Grace was in a drowsy state, and the sudden cold air that entered the blanket made her shiver lightly.

Sensing movement inside the blanket, she squinted her eyes and saw a small, neat patch of deep black hair peeping out of the blanket. A certain man was quietly hiding inside her blanket, thinking he hadn’t been discovered.

Grace couldn’t help but chuckle at his childish behavior. Mischievousness gleamed in her beautiful eyes as she suddenly had an idea to tease him.

She closed her eyes and continued pretending to sleep. When Eder, hidden within the blanket, cautiously shifted closer to her, she immediately snuggled up to him and held him tightly in her embrace.

Eder cautiously lifted his head, slightly parting the blanket, to take a peek at her. Seeing that she was still asleep and completely unaware, he boldly pressed against her chest.

His nose was right against her sleepwear, facing the faint glimpse of snow white skin. He took a deep breath.

Damn, it smells so good!

One breath from Grace was worth more than ten cigarettes after a meal!

Grace’s brow twitched despite her pretending to be asleep.

Was this it? Were all men like this in bed?

However, she herself was an experienced LSP (Licensed Sensual Professionalt a connoisseur of looks and physique. Who was afraid of whom?

Let’s try each other!

Her little hand that was holding onto Eder’s shoulder nonchalantly moved downward, gliding across his strong waist, until finally landing on his firm and elastic buttocks. Without warning, she gave it a vigorous squeeze!

Suppressing her laughter, she pretended to murmur in her sleep, “Little brother, vou feel so good to touch!”

Little brother?

Eder, who was about to discreetly take in her scent, suddenly found it hard to breathe, Grace always called him Eder, or big brother Eider. Could it be that while Grace was embu she was thinking of another mant She might say she didn’t mind, but deep down, was she actually concerned about his illness?

He had a degenerative disease, and he was no longer the same physically. Whether it was happiness or pleasure, he couldn’t provide them anymore…

Grace was trying to hold back her laughter when she suddenly noticed that the man in her arms had become increasingly rigid in his back.

A certain melancholy lingered in the air. Realizing something was wrong. Grace immediately sat up and lifted the blanket.

Eder quickly rolled over, facing away from her, curling up into a ball with his arms wrapped around his head.

Grace couldn’t see his expression, so she lightly poked his arched back with her finger.

“Big Brother Eder?

Eder took a few deep breaths, and his back rose and fell with each breath.

Because his face was buried in his arms, his magnetic voice sounded muttled. “Did… did you have….

a wolf dog outside? A little puppy?”
