Regret Came Too Late

Alice's expression stiffened, and she heaved her chest several times.

On the other hand, Yancey was extremely delighted, and his tone noticeably sounded more cheerful.

"Grace, leaving Henderson Group was the right decision. I told you before that Uncle Ethan isn't a good person. Maybe the reason he promoted you to the top floor was only because he's interested in you," Yancey said.

As soon as he said that, Alice suddenly burst into laughter.

"Do you really think Mr. Ethan is interested in Grace?"

She laughed so hard, as if she had just heard the funniest joke in the world. She was even brought to the point of tears.

"Yancey, haven't I told you this before? I once ran into Mr. Ethan, and when I mentioned Grace, his expression was full of disdain.

"Someone even asked him what he thought of her, and he said that meeting her in person was worse than hearing about her."

Him saying, "Meeting her in person was worse than hearing about her", was an understatement, especially when everyone in Druville knew about Grace's name.

Her reputation as Yancey's lapdog was well-established throughout the whole town.

Alice laughed harder and harder. But in the end, perhaps afraid of breaking her persona, she toned it down a little.
