Chapter 256

At the top floor of the Angle Building, the atmosphere was tense.

Grace coldly looked at the young girl in front of her, who was only nineteen years old.

She seemed to know about her past with Eder. But how could a young star from the entertainment industry possibly know about their previous affairs in Frant City?

Grace was contemplating this when Ava pouted her rosy lips and smiled innocently. “Miss Grace, why are you nervous? I just casually mentioned it. It seems like you have a secret, huh?”

Could it be that she was overthinking?

Grace’s expression became serious, but she remained silent.

Ava continued to smile and said. “There’s a charity party tonight, and I will be attending as Mr. Storm’s partner. It seems like Miss Grace, as his fiancee, doesn’t have a place. Oh dear, he surely must have not told you about this, right? It seems that you are not that important to him.”

She chuckled provocatively, turned around, and left in the elevator.

Grace stared at her receding figure until it completely disappeared from the top floor. Her face turned unusually solemn.

Beth was frightened by her expression and hurriedly tried to console her. “Miss Grace, don’t overthink it. That woman clearly came here to provoke and create conflict. You and Mr. Storm have always had a good relationship, and he must have brought her along because of work.”

“Alright.” Grace didn’t say much. “You can go about your business.”

She turned and entered her office, immediately making a call to one of Dark Bell’s subordinates. “Ava is up to something. Investigate her as soon as possible. I want to know everything about her!”

“No problem, boss.”
