Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 93

Grace still hadn't figured out how she was responsible for the condition of Ethan's legs, and now, another complication surfaced. If she really was the reason behind the death of Ethan's beloved, how had she managed to survive until now?

Was it sheer luck?

Grace finished reading the article and tried hard to recall the incident. Yet nothing came to mind.

She searched online for news from back then, but there was very little information about the Yule family's eldest daughter.

Just as she was considering if she should ask someone about it, an unfamiliar number called her.

She answered, and it was Hendricks. "Grace, you little bitch! I heard you planned what happened to my sister! Just you wait. I won't let you off once you're married to me! Your mom already said that I'm taking you straight home after Alice's wedding is over!

"Bitch, let's see how arrogant you'll be then. You'll be lying under me just like you should."

There was a cold glint in Grace's eyes at his disgusting words. She had thought that keeping Lily occupied would make them leave her alone, but it seemed like Hendricks was still delusional.

She hung up immediately and frowned. Her phone vibrated again at that moment.

It was another message from Yancey.

"Do you know what the Yule family's eldest daughter looked like? Grace, no matter what your background or abilities are, you'll never compare to her. So, stop dreaming about getting Uncle Ethan to like you."

Grace was speechless. She had never fantasized about Ethan liking her. Instead, she would be relieved if he didn't hate her.

She didn't understand why Yancey was sending a message like this.

She thought for a moment before she replied, "Why are you so concerned about me and your uncle? What's the matter? Do you regret letting me go?"

Yancey had been drinking with Sloan at that moment. He was a bit surprised when he saw that Grace had replied to him.

She had been particularly cold toward him recently, not even wanting to say a few words to him. Yet here she was, replying to his message.

He quickly set his glass down and read the message carefully, but it only infuriated him. "She must be dreaming! I'd never regret letting her go!"

When Sloan heard that, he looked up at Yancey. "Let who go?"

Yancey realized he had reacted too strongly and quickly tried to cover it up. "Who else? Grace actually said that I still want her. How shameless can she be? She's the one clinging to me all these years. She really knows how to make herself seem important.

What was he doing at a bar like this?

She sat in the car and didn't get out, watching as his gaze passed over. Even though he was in a wheelchair, he was positioned on a set of steps and still had that commanding presence about him.

Grace had just seen the news about the kidnapping. Her hands gripped the steering wheel uneasily.

She didn't know if Ethan saw her, so she didn't dare to get out of the car in case she bumped into him.

She had wanted to wait until Ethan entered before she got out, but Ethan seemed to be talking about something with the people around him. Ethan seemed to be calm, and Grace didn't know the people he was with.

She waited for ten minutes and only got out of the car when she saw that no one was on the steps anymore.

But after she got past the steps, she realized that Ethan and his group hadn't left at all. They were behind a pillar. Now, there was no way to avoid Ethan.

Their eyes met.

Grace's heart skipped a bit, and she hurriedly looked away. She never expected the person in front of Ethan to greet her, "Well, if it isn't Grace?"
