Grace hurriedly pulled the wheelchair back, crouched down, and placed her hands on Ethan's legs.

"Mr. Henderson, did I hurt you?" Grace looked up to check on Ethan, only to get lost in his dark eyes.

Ethan rested his hands on the armrests. He merely glanced at her before looking away with indifference.

Grace felt a jolt of unease, wondering what she did wrong.

She wanted to apologize, but Ethan had already opened the room door and wheeled himself out before she could.

Grace stood frozen for several seconds as she tried to process what she had just heard. Alice was pregnant? If she still had her memories, she would probably be crying herself silly right now.

She took a deep breath and walked after Ethan.

She had no clue which elevator she should take. As she stood, lost in her thoughts, she heard footsteps behind her.

"Grace?"

It was Yancey. He had finished his call, and when he saw her, he instinctively hid his phone behind his back.

Grace couldn't be bothered to even look at him and pressed the elevator button.

This time, Yancey wasn't as hostile as before. He slowly approached her. "Are you here for me?"

Staring at Grace's back, Yancey felt an unfamiliar sense of reluctance. But Alice was pregnant. He couldn't just abandon Alice. He raised his hand, hesitating as he almost placed it on her back.

Since the elevator was not there yet, Grace had no way of leaving.
