hapter 187 Her Real Self

The more she spoke, the more agitated Yvonne became. She ground her teeth as if she were about to

tear Grace to pieces in the next moment.

Upon hearing her threat, Benjamin pushed her away immediately. He wasn’t surprised that something

so venomous had come out of Yvonne’s mouth.

But he would no longer give her the chance.

Without hesitating for even a moment, Benjamin turned around and left. He didn’t care how

much Yvonne screamed at him.

He just acted as if he hadn’t heard anything.

As soon as he left the ward, he went to Richard, who was standing at the end of the corridor.

He kept walking toward him.

He hadn’t seen Richard for a few months, and it seemed that the latter had aged a lot all of a sudden.

His hair was streaked with white at his temple, and there was a sense of fatigue in his

expression.

Richard didn’t know how demented Yvonne was.

In fact, he thought that Yvonne and Benjamin had had a good conversation.

So he raised his eyebrows, his lips curling up. There was a light in his eyes, as if the exhaustion on his

face earlier had just been an illusion.

“Yvonne and I have the same opinion. A life for a life. This is a fair deal!”

Benjamin put his hand in his pocket with a hint of contempt.

“That’s not how you settle a score, Mr. Quine Senior. At your age, you should be enjoying life. Why are

you interfering with the affairs of the young people?”

As he spoke, Benjamin seemed to think of something.

He said provocatively, “Oh, right, I forgot. I’m afraid your family’s current situation can’t support your

usual lifestyle. But that’s okay. Even if you have to go out and get a job at the age of 70, no one’s going

to laugh at you.”

His words angered Richard.

“You… Benjamin … You asshole!”

Benjamin ignored his insults, straightened up, and left disdainfully.

In the car, Benjamin glanced outside the window.

ridiculous mistake he had made.

In the past three years, he had ignored Grace countless times and pushed her away from him time and

time again, all for Yvonne.

He realized he had made too many mistakes.

He suddenly missed Grace so much. If he could just see her…

Without hesitation, Benjamin started the engine and sped off.

Grace had successfully become the chief designer for Pamore’s fashion show. When she left Alan’s

house, she couldn’t resist messaging Xander first.

“Xan, I bagged the chief designer role for the fashion show! Not only that, but Professor Morris even

agreed to use Amirate’s garment factory to manufacture all the clothes for the fashion show.”

Grace quickly tapped out a long string of words and sent it to him.

In less than half a minute, she received Xander’s reply.

“Congratulations! That means that your chance of winning the bet with Mr. Walker has increased

further.”

Grace smiled slightly. “It’s all thanks to you. If it hadn’t been for you, things wouldn’t have gone so

smoothly.”

“There’s no need for us to be so formal with each other.”

Grace blushed. She didn’t know why, but her heart rate sped up.

She thought for a moment and replied, “How about I buy you dinner tonight?”

“Okay, sure.”

Grace looked at the words on her screen. She was in a good mood.

“I’ll see you tonight, then.”

After she sent the message, Grace put her hands in her pockets and got in the car.

She hadn’t noticed a black Volkswagen in the distance that had also started its engine. The driver

stared aggressively in Grace’s direction, an intense hatred in her eyes.
