Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 181

Yancey looked confused but was too happy to care, so he answered honestly, "Uncle Eamon doesn't have kids yet. Uncle Bart has two sons, and Aunt Yvonne has one son. They all look a tiny bit like me but definitely not as handsome.

"Why? Have you finally realized I'm not bad-looking after all? Hah! It's too late now—you've been so cold to me lately."

Grace couldn't be bothered with his rambling and frowned. Who had she just seen through Yancey's face? Why couldn't she remember anything at all?

After he was done talking about how perfect he was, Yancey asked her in a serious tone, "Did the accident actually do you some good? Did you remember something? You used to look at me with such focus, like you could never leave me."

Grace pursed her lips. Instead of being focused, she wondered if she was actually just looking at someone else through his face. But she knew nothing—her mind was totally blank.

Yancey started bragging again, "By the way, I investigated the accident that caused your memory loss. It's not that simple. The driver vanished—there's not even a record of him. Do you know what that means?"

"What?"

Yancey leaned in closer. "Whoever caused your memory loss is a top-level big shot. Regular people can't possibly erase someone's entire record."

Only people from elite families had that kind of power. Grace raised an eyebrow. Since waking up, she had rarely thought about the accident that caused her memory loss.

With everything else that had happened, she never expected Yancey to provide this clue. He had finally proved useful for once. After remembering they were in Ethan's office, she quickly moved several feet away.

Yancey pressed his lips together unhappily and tried to move closer, but then Ethan spoke up. "Is there something you need?"

Yancey paused. When he looked at Ethan, his expression turned cold. "Of course there is. I found other security footage from that day. Even though you had the main footage removed, other passing cars happened to catch you on camera.

She composed herself. "Mr. Henderson has never said anything bad about you as his nephew, Yancey. It's always you who makes everyone uncomfortable without thinking of the consequences.

"You're really nothing like Mr. Henderson."

Yancey had been too happy when he found Grace safe. But upon hearing these words, his expression instantly fell. He hated being compared to Ethan the most, especially when that comparison came from Grace.

He pressed his lips together, feeling like she would never believe anything he said anymore. But Ethan definitely had ulterior motives, and they were all just hidden behind his calm face.

He was like a hunter quietly waiting for his prey to walk right into his trap.
