Maybe she had been under too much pressure at Hawkins Manor for too long. Now she felt like she had gotten a weight off her mind.
She looked at the travelers around her. Was she sad that she would be leaving Pamore soon?
Perhaps she was, but what she felt more was relief.
She had thought that Benjamin didn’t love her. But it turned out that he already had someone else in his heart.
In that case, what was the point of continuing to cling to him?
Grace went to the first-class check-in counter to board the plane bound for Darai.
Years ago, she had left her family and hidden her true identity to stay in Pamore.
Had it not been for her grandfather’s wish to meet her and Benjamin, the medical expo deal with Hawkins Group would never have been sealed.
Yet, Benjamin had sent her there alone instead of going together.
It was time for her to return now.
The female employee at the counter tactfully said, “Miss, your flight ticket is currently on hold. I can’t issue you a boarding pass at the moment.”
“On hold?” Grace was stunned.
“It can’t be. Can you please ch*ck again?”
“Did you book the ticket with a corporate account? There may have been some refund processing earlier. Could you please show me your identification card for verification?”
It wasn’t until Grace heard that that she realized what was wrong.
Since she had been Benjamin’s secretary, almost all of her accounts were managed by Hawkins Group.
As for her identification card, the HR department had taken the original for some sort of registration purpose not long ago.
Grace had wanted to leave the city as soon as possible. So she hadn’t considered everything carefully.
“Sorry. I’ll make a call to ask about it.”
He was a sissy and a good bootlicker.
Given how Benjamin treated Grace, Jason naturally wasn’t respectful or kind to her either.
“Where is my identification card?” Grace cut straight to the chase.
“Identification card? Larry just came and took it away two minutes ago.”
Grace was stunned. She should have expected something like this!
Benjamin was infamous for his cold and unyielding character. There was no way he would allow her to challenge his authority like that.
Just as Grace was about to go and look for Benjamin, Jason suddenly called her. “It’s fine to be dismissed, but please mind your attitude, okay?
“They are having an important meeting on the top floor now, and I heard that Mr. Hawkins’ fiancée is here too.”
