Second Marriage

Chapter 520 Timed

After both sides sat down, Yanis had been standing behind Alice, looking at Grace with alerts.

She had been staring at Grace, afraid that Grace would suddenly stand up, took out something from

her pocket and poured over to Alice.

Kennedy was with Alice last time, but now not. Who could her Alice in case of accident?

So, she had to protect Alice.

Probably her eyes were sharp, Grace took a look at her with doubts and then complained, “What is

your look in your eyes? I said I wouldn't hurt her again, and if I do it, I swear lightning would strike me.

Don't you believe me?”

Alice, “...”

Yanis, “Who will believe you? Besides you did such a thing before, I can't believe you have changed.

Only Alice, kind as she is, spared you.”

She said sharply. Grace was awkward and Alice did not stop her but calmly looked at this scene.

Grace was angry, but she endure it and gave a cold hum, “Say what you want to say. I cannot stop you,

I can only use my action to prove everything!”

Then she stood up and looked at Alice.

Yanis got nervous, “What do you want to do? You......”

Her eyes widened in astonishment.

Grace bowed to Alice, with her waist and head down, looking particularly sincere.

Even Grace’s mother was surprised by her action, looking at her in a daze. Obviously they had not

reached an agreement.

“I apologize for my previous inappropriate behavior and I assure you it will not happen again. Because

of the previous influence to you, I am willing to promise you a condition, no matter what you say, I will

do it!”

Yanis was also shocked, she did not expect that Grace would do that.

Grace’s mother was gratified, “Miss Nelson, Grace was sincere. After she came out from the prison,

she pulled me out to buy something, saying that she would come to apologize to you. Grace was

capricious, but now she has seriously changed.”

Alice looked at Grace, she did not seem to be shocked or surprised by Grace's move.

Seeing that she was so clam, Grace’s mother knew why her daughter lost to her.

Their behavior was really not on the same level.

Her daughter was beautiful, but Alice was beautiful too, on the contrary... She had her temperament.

Temperament depended on education and experience.

Grace did not have that.

And Alice did not have the vitality as Grace.

But if Alice and Kennedy knew each other before, he should have seen Alice’s vitality and now he

loved her temperament.

At this thought, Grace’s mother was clear in mind.

“If I hadn't forgiven her, she wouldn't be standing before me now. I don't need anything. As for the

conditions, I hope that in the future... Just stay out of my way.”

Grace, “That is it?”

“What?”

“You... You're not gonna take a chance to make it hard for me? After all, I wanted to ruin your look.”

Alice gave a faint smile, “First, you hurt Mr. Kennedy, not me. Second, since I have forgiven you, I will

not make it hard for you.”

The more magnanimous she was, Grace felt more ashamed.

“Well, I'm willing to lose to you. I'll take your terms, but... If you haven't been with him, I... I will try to

compete with you by fair means.”

Alice froze and then looked at Grace.

She wanted a competition?

She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips. “Whatever.”

“These gifts...”

“No need.” Alice stood up and said lightly, “Yanis, send them downstairs.”

Grace’s mother bought a bunch of things. Seeing that Alice did not accept them, she said, “We brought

them to apologize to you. Since you have accepted our apology, please accept the gifts. We carefully

selected them, or we will be embarrassed.”

“It's kind of you, Mrs. Lam. I don't need these. And... It's Annie you should thank to.”

Hearing that, Grace’s mother was stunned. She felt Alice graceful and smart.

Alice might have guessed that it had caused estrangement between her and Annie, but Alice said that

ease the tension.

She was so kind.

“I know I owe it to her. I will thank her, and please take the gifts.”

Grace’s mother put the gifts on the table, and then pulled Grace's hand, “Thank you, Miss Nelson, we

are leaving.”

With that, Grace’s mother took Grace out of the office.

Grace looked back at Alice and increased her voice, “I picked them myself, it is my sincere apology. If

you do not accept it, it is you looking down on me...”

“Shut up...

The two walked out of the office.

Alice looked at Yanis, who was standing there in a daze, until Alice squinted eyes toward her.

“Oh, I'll see them off at once.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Alice walked back to her desk.

She was tired, so she might as well take a nap.

After packing up the documents, she walked into the break room.

It was a busy day. When it was time, Alice and Yanis picked up Jack. When she got home, she took off

high heels and lied down on the sofa.

As soon as she lay down, her phone vibrated.

It was the message from Kennedy.

{When will you come?}

Alice, “...”

This guy seemed to have sent her at the set time.

Alice did not reply but put it away. Jack put down his bag and leaned over.

“Mommy, we should take our cat to the pet hospital today.”

Hearing that, Alice nodded, “Ok, I go with you.”

“Forget it, I go with you.” Yanis pulled the collar of Jack and got him to her side, and then looked at

Alice with disgust, “Your mommy gets tired from her work. Jack, we get the cat back so that your

mommy can have a rest.”
