Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 179

To Maria, Alice was nothing but a sweet, innocent girl.

Grace didn't press her to believe it. All Maria needed was to see the truth for herself. The issue was that Alice was a master at her role, showing almost no flaws in her act.

But now, she had figured out a way to turn things around. She needed to find the person who had shown up at the Lambert residence, demanding money.

She stood, giving Maria's hand a brief, reassuring squeeze. "Ms. Vickham, you and your husband are honest people—too honest to understand how twisted some people can be. Some are born rotten, and they're experts at manipulating others. If you don't believe me now, that's fine. I'll find the proof soon enough."

Maria was too overwhelmed to respond and couldn't believe what she had heard.

Grace stood up to leave and headed back to Henderson Group. But as she pulled into the parking lot, she didn't expect to see Alice. Was she here to see Yancey?

A triumphant smile spread across Alice's face. Grace was out of the picture, while she had already left a great impression on someone like Ethan.

In the end, Grace couldn't compare to her. After all, Ethan had said Grace's reputation spoke for itself. As Alice thought about it, she couldn't help but chuckle softly.
