Chapter 97 Simen didn't want an obedient puppet for a wife. He would choose his own spouse. Grace listened from the side, feeling uneasy. Simen kept complaining about his unknown wife, not even knowing what she looked like. She glanced at Ethan, who must have been very close to Simen to personally involve himself in this matter. After about half an hour, Simen finally came up with a plan.

He decided to have an affair and openly flirt with other women, hoping his wife would lose patience and end the marriage herself. Though he seemed in a better mood after deciding on this, he still glared at Grace with hatred. Grace didn't dare to be alone with him. When she saw Ethan leaving, she immediately followed. She had intended to help push his wheelchair attentively, but she withdrew her hands, thinking of Simen's sister. Ethan moved ahead in his wheelchair, and Grace quietly followed.

Soon, they arrived at a secluded corner. The men who had harassed her earlier were kneeling under dim light, each trapped in a burlap sack. Grace was surprised and was about to ask who did this when Ethan explained, "They were sent by Sloan, a devoted follower of Alice. It was Alice causing trouble again." Grace thanked Ethan for his help, to which he didn't ask for more assistance but maneuvered his wheelchair down a different path. His wheelchair stopped at a step, unable to go up.

Grace saw him struggling and rushed to help him. "Grace," he suddenly called her name, causing her fingers to tremble slightly. "Did you come here because of Tancry?" Ethan asked. Grace didn't know how to respond at that moment, as she had come for Yancey. But the real reason was to learn about the Yule family's daughter, a fact she couldn't let Ethan know, a sore spot for her. The atmosphere around them grew quiet with that one word. Ethan chuckled coldly, and before saying more, he left.

Grace stood there, realizing Ethan likely thought she hadn't given up on Yancey, not wanting her to marry into the Henderson family, deeming her unworthy of their name. Taking a deep breath, she felt completely misunderstood but knew she had to deal with Sloan to prevent further trouble. Just then, Quentin called, urging her to come home as Alice was getting married and needed her.
