Regret Came Too Late

While waiting for Levi to leave, Grace was completely exhausted. She rubbed the spot between her brows and sighed softly.

She returned to the bench outside the hospital room, feeling drowsy, and was about to doze off.

Another hour had passed when Jodie arrived in a rush.

Jodie was very frantic, and she blew up the moment she saw Grace.

"Get the hell out of here, Grace! Why are you even here? If it weren't for you, would my brother have ended up here? Get lost!"

Grace didn't want to stay here to begin with. Upon hearing that, she was practically delighted.

"Sure, I'll get lost. Goodbye."

Jodie was stunned for a second. It felt like she had punched a pillow, and she didn't know what to say at that moment. In a fit of frustration, she flung open the door to the hospital room.

When Grace left the hospital, she simply felt refreshed. She went straight home, changed her clothes, and headed to Henderson Group to check in.

She arrived at the penthouse just in time. Luckily, she wasn't late.

She didn't see Ethan all day. He was even absent from the executive meeting.

Before leaving, concern got the better of her, so she ended up asking Tim about Ethan.

"What happened to Mr. Henderson?"

Tim scoffed and rolled his eyes at Grace. "Why don't you ask yourself what you fed him last night?"
