Regret Came Too Late

Grace was so absorbed in her thoughts that she unknowingly fell asleep.

Meanwhile, downstairs, Yancey decided to stay for dinner, as the chefs were still preparing the meal in the kitchen.

Carmen pulled Alice aside and asked if she was satisfied with the wedding dress she tried on today.

Alice wasn't really in a great mood, and she could barely force out a response.

"It's okay, Mom. I'm feeling a little unwell, so I'm going upstairs to get some rest. Call me when dinner is ready."

"Alright, go ahead. You look so pale."

Alice got up and walked upstairs. After returning to her room, she began pacing back and forth. She couldn't stop thinking about how Yancey had treated Grace in the car just now, and her expression was twisted with anger.

She couldn't wait any longer. She had to act immediately.

She took out her phone and made a call.

"I'll ask Liam to take Grace out tomorrow. I'll also arrange someone to kidnap her. This time, I'll make the first move. If she's lucky enough to survive, then it'll be your turn next time. One of us is bound to succeed."

The person on the other end didn't say much. They simply responded, "Okay."

When dinner was served, one of the maids went to call Grace, but she didn't feel like eating and went back to sleeping.

She was abruptly woken by a phone call. As soon as she answered the call, the first thing she heard was Paul's voice on the other end.

"Hey, Grace. Taylor's mother came looking for us. She seems completely out of her mind."

Grace instantly woke up, sitting up with her eyes wide open.
