Regret Came Too Late

Ethan took his napkin out and wiped the corners of his mouth with light dabs. "Yes, but you wouldn't be able to afford it."

Grace felt slightly embarrassed. When it came to wealth, no one in Druville could compete with Ethan. She pondered for a moment before a smile appeared on her face all of a sudden. It seemed like she had thought of what to give him.

She took a deep breath before asking, "Mr. Henderson, I'll go and pick a present for you. If you like it, can you tell me everything about that plot of land?"

Ethan raised his brow slightly. Seeing how her face was beaming with confidence, anticipation flashed across his eyes. He let his eyes fall to the ground to hide it from her. "Sure."

Since she had already thought of what present to give him, there was no point staying there. She left the hotel right away and contacted Selene.

Selene was a little taken aback to hear that Grace was trying to find out what Eleanor looked like. "Why are you asking this?"

"If you have a photo of her, can you send it to me?"

Every single person in Druville knew that Ethan's first love had passed away. If she could find someone who looked like the late Eleanor, would it make him happier?

Even though she knew that Ethan was not really a tacky person, seeing how he had already accepted Jordan's request to go on blind dates, he might just be able to accept a substitute.

Selene began asking around and finally managed to get her hands on a photo of Eleanor. When she sent Grace the photo, she gave a few cautionary words. "Don't go overboard."

She had no clue what Grace was up to, but she could sort of figure it out.

Grace replied with confidence. "That won't happen, Selene. Thanks for your help." They were both neighbors and had already become close to each other.

After Grace ended the call, she looked at the photo on her phone.

Eleanor looked demure. It only took Grace one glance to tell that this was the sort of face that could be a man's first love. "So, this is Ethan's type, huh?" she thought to herself.

she was afraid that Ethan might become angry if she found him a substitute. But now that it had come to this, she had no choice but to proceed. With the desperate situation at hand, this was the only solution she could think of. She started by visiting a few bars to find Eleanor's doppelganger. Eventually, she did manage to find someone. It was a student who had recently started working at the bar. Due to her family's financial situation, she was eager to start work but had not
