Chapter 103
Falling for My Contractual Wife
âHow could there be such a coincidence in this world? The person who robbed me last time and the person sent by Louise this time both have a scar on their foreheads. This can only mean that it wasnât an accident last time. It was Louise who instigated it,â Grace thought.
Nancy looked at Grace in surprise. âThen do you know whoâs trying to hurt you?â
Grace looked at her, her gaze slightly dazed, and shook her head. âI donât know.â
Nancy bit her lip. âThink about it carefully. Did you offend anyone recently?â
Grace closed her eyes and rubbed her hair. âNancy, stop asking.â
Nancy saw Graceâs pale face and couldnât bear to ask her again. âOkay, Iâll take you back to the company first, I didnât even take leave when I came out.â
Grace turned to look at her and smiled. âThank you, Nancy. If it werenât for you today, I probably wouldnât have dared to walk out of the villa.â
Nancy started the car. Just as she drove out of the villa district, her phone rang.
Nancy glanced at the phone screen and turned to look at Grace. She whispered, âMr. Francis.â
Nancy picked up the phone. âHello, Mr. Francis.â
âMs. Patel, I heard that you went out for no reason.â
Nancy glanced at Grace. Just as she was about to tell him about Grace, Grace hurriedly gestured for her not to say anything.
Nancy paused for a moment. âIâm sorry, Mr. Francis. There was an emergency at the last minute. Iâm back. Iâll be back to the company in ten minutes.â
w on my way Brianâs low and cold voice came from the phone. âGo to the human resources department and record your absence.â
ââ¦Alright.â
When Grace heard Brianâs words, the anger in her heart suddenly surged.
âBrian, are you crazy? Nancy already said that it was an emergency. How can she have time to ask for leave? Is the Francis Group so inhumane?â
Brian was stunned for seven to eight seconds before he said, âGrace, where are you?â
Grace was extremely frustrated and did not want to talk to him. She took Nancyâs phone and hung up.
Nancy was dumbstruck as she watched Graceâs series of actions.
âGrace, that was amazing. Youâre really the only person Iâve seen who dares to fight Mr. Francis head on!â
Grace pursed her lips helplessly. She just couldnât stand Brianâs way of doing things. He wanted to fire Nancy for no reason d and wanted to fine her for no reason.
In fact, Grace didnât dare to do so in the past, but too many things had happened during this period of time. She was extremely depressed.
âWho doesnât have a temper? Grace thought.
w 96% 13:26 Grace was still in shock from what just happened, but Brian had to say that he was going to punish Nancy at this time, causing the anger in her heart to surge.
The car was driven back to the company. Grace went upstairs with Nancy. Graceâs desk was outside the presidentâs office.
Grace sat at her desk, her hands and feet cold.
In the black car, the scarâfaced man with the cap took out his phone and made a call.
As soon as the call went through, an impatient voice came from the other end. âHow is it? Did you succeed?â
âIâm sorry, Miss Adkins. She locked all the doors and windows as soon as she went in. I couldnât get to her.â
âLocked? Canât yo think of another way? I donât believe sheâll stay in there forever!â
The scarâfaced man pondered for a moment and said in a hoarse voice, âNo, Iâm guessing that she might have noticed something. Normal people wouldnât close all the doors and windows the moment they enter the house.â
There was a pause on the other end of the line, and then an angry voice sounded. âThen you must have followed her too obviously! She discovered you! You idiot!â
âIâm sorry, Miss Adkins. Iâll look for another opportunity.â
