The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 303

Grace’s pupils dilated, and her eyelashes fluttered incessantly. “Maybe… it’s the wrong number. Let’s forget about it for now and take our medicine first.”

“A wrong number?”

Eder noticed panic in her eyes and became suspicious. Doubts emerged within him.

The phone rang persistently, as if the caller was determined to keep dialing until it was answered.

Eder’s expression darkened, and he stood up to retrieve her phone. “Then I’ll answer it for you.”

“No need!”

Grace firmly grabbed his hand, exerting force.

Eder grew even more perplexed. Why was her reaction so intense?

Realizing her own overreaction, Grace quickly pulled him back to sit down. “I just remembered. It should be a call from our business partner today. I forgot to save their number.”

His suspicions lingered. “It’s already 9:30 p.m. What business partner would call so late to discuss

work?”

“How would I know… Let me answer and find out.“.

Grace put down the water glass and calmed her pounding heart. As she answered the phone, she adjusted the volume to the lowest setting.

“Hello, what’s the matter?”

On the other end of the line, Nick paused for a moment, and it dawned on him almost instantly. He asked, “Little sister Grace, is Eder next to you? Oh, it seems I’ve called at an inconvenient time and disturbed your lovey–dovey moment.

Grace took a deep breath and glanced at Eder, who stared at her intently. She stood up and walked to the balcony, adopting a cold tone. “Get to the point.”

“Alright, let’s talk business.”

Nick smirked, then turned serious. “Tonight, before 11 p.m., come to the abandoned chemical factory in S City’s eastern suburbs. You can bring bodyguards, but remember, only you can enter Room 302 on the fifth floor!”
