Chapter 49
Falling for My Contractual Wife
Grace had already bled a little when she changed the dressing yesterday and had sweated a lot afterward. The gauze was already stuck to Graceâs wound.
When Louise ripped off the dressing, it resulted in Graceâs skin being torn off as well. Graceâs forehead was dripping with blood. She bled even more than when she was first injured.
When Louise saw the bright red blood flowing down Graceâs cheek, a trace of excitement flashed across her eyes. placed her fingers on Graceâs forehead and quickly flicked the white powder under her nails onto Graceâs wound.
âOh my, Iâm sorry, Grace. It has been two days since this wound occurred. Why is it still bleeding?â
Louise Grace looked at Louiseâs innocent expression and took a deep breath. She knew that Louise was already suspecting her Identity. Otherwise, she would not treat her this way.
When Melvin saw the situation here, he was shocked and immediately ran over to ask, âWhatâs going on? Why is your wound bleeding again?â
Grace shook her head and told Melvin not to worry about her. If Melvin showed too much concern for her, it would also make Louise suspicious.
I Grace quietly tended to her wound. Louise said slowly. âSince you want to do it yourself, I wonât help you then.â
Grace bandaged the wound and started to busy herself with this and that. She didnât have any rest until lunchtime.
For some reason, she felt an unusual pain in her forehead today. She wondered if it was because the wound had bled again that morning.
After dinner, she lay on the table and fell into a deep sleep.
In the afternoon, Grace felt weak all over, but Ava kept clamoring for her to clean the rooms upstairs.
Grace could only endure the soreness and go to work.
After a busy day, Grace finally fell into a deep sleep in bed.
The next day, Grace was woken up by noises. Something seemed to have happened outside. All the maids were standing in the living room.
Grace got up from the bed. She felt lightâheaded and almost fell to the ground.
Avaâs sharp voice sounded from outside. âGrace! Why isnât she here yet? Hurry, call her over now!â
Grace heard the sound, opened the door, and slowly walked out.
Her face was so pale that it looked like she would collapse at any moment.
As soon as Grace came out, she saw all the maids standing in the living room. She asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
Ava ordered, âStand over here!â
Grace walked over and stood at the side.
MMM 100% 13:15 âMy sister lost two pieces of jewelry last night, and no outsiders came to our house. I suspect that one of you maids has stolen them!â
When the maids heard that, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They looked at each other but did not dare to speak.
When Louise saw everyoneâs nervous expressions, she stood and comforted them with a smile. âDonât worry. Iâll search every room later. I wonât blame you if you didnât steal anything. However, the Francis family will never tolerate the person who stole the things!â
Grace did not have the energy to listen to what Louise said. She could not even stand straight. The crowd dispersed, and she collapsed on the sofa.
After about seven or eight minutes, she suddenly heard someone call her name. âGrace, how dare you!
So, it was you who stole my sisterâs things!â
Grace frowned and tried her best to open her eyes. She saw Ava walking toward her with a necklace in her hand.
âI didnât steal anything!â
âThis was found in your room! Did I wrong you? Melvin saw with his own eyes when the necklace was found in your room!â
