Chapter 9 Grace Fainted In Her Office

her return. Just as she was about to enter her office, a secretary approached her and informed her, “Miss Bailey, Miss Murphy said she had made an appointment with you and is now waiting for you in your office.” “Miss Murphy?” Amanda was confused. She had just returned to the country, and the only case she had on hand was Winters Enterprise’s case, so where did this Miss Murphy come from? “Okay, thank you. I’ll go check her out.” When Amanda entered her office, she saw a woman in sunglasses sitting on the couch. “Excuse me, but you are…” The woman removed her sunglasses and raised her head, revealing a heavily made-up face. Grace. Amanda’s expression instantly turned cold. “Why are you here? Are you looking for trouble?” “Why did you leave last night? I had so much I wanted to talk to you about.” With a fake smile, Grace looked pure and innocent. Sitting on the opposite couch, Amanda put on a serious attitude. “Miss Murphy, is there anything I can help you with? Since it’s office hours, we’ll only talk about work.” Without Elias, Grace could not care less to put on her harmless front. She took out a card and placed it on the coffee table. “Amanda, I don’t know why you returned, but if you’re here for money, I can give you however much you want as long as you stay away from Elias.” “How much is in here?” Pfft.

Are you afraid we’d get back together?” By then, Grace was so pissed that her nails dug into her palms. She sternly demanded, “I don’t want to see you pester Elias and affect our relationship! I hope you can disappear from his world!” “I hope the two of you can disappear from my world even more. If there’s nothing else, please leave. I’m busy.” The fake b*tch had consumed all of Amanda’s patience, prompting her to stride toward her desk. Meanwhile, Grace shot up from her seat in a fury. “What you’re saying is that you’ll continue to bother Elias and use Old Mr. Winters’ fondness for you to get back with him?” I give up. Why does Grace keep thinking that I’m clinging to Elias? “So what if I
