Yancey followed her into the elevator. "It won't matter if you're jealous. Alice is a hundred times better than you," he said. Grace was too tired and couldn't be bothered to argue with him. Just as they got out of the elevator, they ran into Alice, whose eyes immediately reddened after seeing the two coming out of the same elevator. "Yancey," Alice called out. Yancey looked a bit guilty and quickly stepped forward, pulling her into his arms. "What's wrong?

Didn't I tell you I'd be working late? Why are you waiting for me?" "Is it really work, or did you get tangled up with Grace again?" Alice lowered her head, tears immediately welling up in her eyes. Yancey kissed her cheek, then turned to Grace. "Grace, are you not going to apologize?" Grace was so bewildered by the absurdity of it all that she couldn't even react at first. "Why should I apologize? Just because we're in the same space?" Yancey was left speechless, unsure how to respond to that.

Alice grabbed his sleeve, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Grace. "She wants to know when you'll come home. Liam is on summer break. Are we having dinner tonight?" "Grace, I deserved the slap yesterday. Don't be mad. Mom was asking about you. You can't keep causing trouble like this. It's making everyone miserable," Grace seemed to remember something and nodded. "Night! You slapped Alice yesterday.

Hurry up and apologize!" Grace looked at the pair of manipulative individuals and smiled. "Wow, you two must be out of your minds. You're both delusional. One thinks I'm head over heels for him, and the other thinks I want to share his cheap attention. Maybe you should both go get a reality check." She turned on her heel and walked away with long strides. Yancey, seething with rage, didn't know Grace could be this sharp-tongued before. He instinctively released Alice and rushed after her.

"Grace, what the hell are you saying? You like me, don't you? And now you're talking to me like this?" he yelled. Alice stood in the lobby, watching them. Her expression twisted in an instant. She pulled out her phone and called Sloan. "Sloan, what happened?" Sloan quickly panicked, leaving the private room and finding a quiet spot. "Did Grace bully you again?" "No, she just slapped me, that's all. Sloan, I'm just upset. I need someone to talk to." "That witch!

Just wait, I'll make sure you get your revenge!" A smile flickered in Alice's eyes, her mood lightening. As long as she wanted, she could have any man she desired. Grace had already reached the car, and Yancey stood with his arms crossed. "You used to never sit in a car worth less than 300 thousand dollars." Grace had already gotten in.

"Yancey, how about we meet at the Lambert residence tomorrow night to talk about the annulment of our engagement?" Yancey's smug expression faltered when he heard that, and his face quickly darkened. "Grace, you're going too far this time." Grace sat back in her seat, waiting straight as a pole ready to break. "7:00 p.m. tomorrow at the Lambert residence." She turned to the driver and signaled to leave. Yancey stood frozen, his eyes locked on the car driving away.

At that moment, someone suddenly grabbed his arm. Then, he heard Alice's voice, sounding like she was sobbing and full of tears. "Yancey." "Alice, Grace said she wants to meet at the Lambert residence tomorrow at 7:00 p.m. to annul the engagement." Surprise flashed in Alice's eyes, but she looked down, pretending to be wronged. "She's said that kind of thing a lot before. When the time comes, she just wants to get your attention. But this time, it looks like it worked.

Yancey, do you really care about her now?" Yancey looked a little guilty and immediately cupped her face, kissing her lips softly. "I can't find any excuse to avoid it." Alice's expression turned cold, and she pressed her lips together tightly. "Yancey, did you see Mr. Edmund today? I heard he came to the company," she suddenly asked. "I did. It's strange.

It's the first time he's been back in the company since coming back to the country." As soon as he finished speaking, Alice's expression darkened even further. Her hands clenched slowly, her nails digging into her palm. "Betty, could it be because of Grace?" Yancey laughed as if he'd heard the funniest joke. "You can't possibly think... feelings for her, right? Grace is just pretty and nothing else.

She doesn't care about..." Alice slowly withdrew the hand from her palm and looked up with a soft, gentle smile. "I was just saying for the sake of..."
