Regret Came Too Late

Jayce let out a cold laugh as he touched his eye. The image of the beer bottle piercing into his eye kept replaying in his mind like a nightmare. After that incident, he became afraid of meeting people and spent his days hiding in the shadows.

Now with Quentin dead and the Lambert family in chaos, he finally had his chance. He would make Grace suffer by blinding her, crippling her, and abusing her in bed.

Just the thought alone excited him, and a raspy laugh slipped from his throat. Yet his laugh was especially eerie.

Alice had fallen silent and curled up in a corner, so terrified that she had wet herself.

The more miserable she was, the more she hated Grace. If it hadn't been for Grace, her life would have been smooth.

Two days later, Edric came out of the police station. His personal matters had now become public, and relatives of both parties were taking turns to pester him, which gave him a headache.

He was still thinking about getting Nelson to sign the share transfer agreement, but Nelson's phone was unreachable. Little did he know that Nelson had been brought to Liam's villa and locked up in a room with his phone confiscated. There was nothing Nelson could do.

Nelson was sweating profusely from anxiety, and he kept begging Sebastian, "Mr. Fenwick, I've been with the company for years. I agreed to sell the shares to Edric because I was left with no choice. I was threatened by a mysterious man, and I might lose my life if I didn't sell them. It's not that I don't believe in Liam and Grace."

Nelson was restless, fearing that the mysterious man would find this place and end his life at any moment. As someone with a lot of experience, Sebastian didn't believe Nelson at all.

Nelson could only sigh helplessly in the room.

Meanwhile, Grace and Liam were already sitting in the office. Edric stormed into the office and slammed his hand hard on the desk. "Grace, what have you done to Nelson?"

Grace, who was sitting on the couch nearby, found it amusing. "Mr. Trenholm, what are you talking about? I don't get you."
