Chapter 241

With his back facing Grace, Eric didn’t immediately turn around. Instead, he exchanged quiet glances with Eder.

Grace wore a lazy and puzzled expression. Just a while ago, after making a phone call, she had gone. upstairs and overheard Eric and Eder conversing in the room from a distance. However, due to the distance, she couldn’t catch their words clearly and only caught a somewhat unfamiliar keyword. “Hmm?” Seeing that neither of them spoke up. Grace’s eyes darted between them.

Eric eventually turned around and noticed Grace’s composed expression. It seemed she wasn’t pretending: maybe she hadn’t heard much. With a smile, he explained, “Inhibitors are a type of medication used in laboratories. We were discussing classified information related to the NBI’s mission. It may not be appropriate to share, Miss Grace.”

“Really?” Grace tilted her head and looked at Eder.

Eder nodded naturally and said, “Grare, if you’re curious, I can tell you, but only if you genuinely want to know.”

She pondered for a moment and replied, “Forget it. Since it’s a secret, don’t tell me. I’m not interested in knowing.”

Both Eder and Eric let out a silent sigh of relief.

“Miss Grace, you may continue talking. I’ll step out for now.”

Grace nodded in response. After Eric left, she sat by Eder’s bed and checked the wound on his chest. It had improved significantly after two days.

In reality, these past two days, Grace wasn’t truly angry with him. She had just used it as an excuse to sleep in a separate room, fearing that he might be restless at night and attempting to seduce her.

For the sake of his quick recovery, she wanted to avoid any contact!

There was a significant improvement in his injury. Why were the bruises on his body still visible? It was strange.

She furrowed her brow, casting a sudden glance at him. She noticed his evasive eyes, which added. to her suspicions..

“It’s been a few days, but why haven’t the marks on your body faded at all? You didn’t do it intentionally, did you?”

“How could I?” Eder firmly denied. “Why would I do something so strange? Besides, it was you who took the initiative that time. So why don’t we keep it as a memento?”

She raised an eyebrow, still harboring doubts in her heart.

“Grace, I want to take a bath,” he interrupted her train of thought and looked at her with intense, dark eyes.
