Chapter 377 Mrs. Fulton

“Email all the information related to the accident to me.”

A minute later, Callum sent all the information to Xander.

Kander opened his email inbox and quickly browsed through the details.

“What is that, Xander?”

Grace had already woken up.

Xander continued to examine the information. Without hiding anything, he said, “I did a background

check on Jessica. There’s nothing unusual, except for a car accident five years ago. Her parents died,

but she survived.”

Grace frowned, inevitably connecting it to Jessica’s animosity toward her. “Do you suspect that the

accident is related to me?”

Xander handed her the phone. After she finished reading, she shook her head. “I didn’t know Jessica

before this, and I’ve never met her parents.”

So why did Jessica harbor such strong resentment for her? It was as if there was some deep- seated

grudge between them.

“Don’t overthink it. Relax. Leave it to me.” Xander patted her shoulder reassuringly.

Grace nodded, but her mind was filled with doubts. She felt like there was more to the

situation than met the eye.

hour.”

Grace took a deep breath and hummed in acknowledgement.

This unfamiliar yet familiar city was a place she hadn’t visited since graduating from university.

Grace couldn’t help but think of Benjamin. They had first met at Coronia University.

An hour later, the plane landed at a private airstrip.

Callum had been waiting for them. When he saw Xander, he rushed over to him, attempting a bear

hug, “Xander! I finally got to see you.”

Xander dodged him, the disdain evident on his face.

However, Callum persisted and attempted another hug. The next moment, he noticed Grace standing

next to Xander.

He blinked and froze, all his movements coming to a halt. His gossipy nature instantly surged within

There was actually a woman next to Xander!

This was truly unprecedented.

“Xander, tell me I’m not seeing things!”

Seeing Callum’s exaggerated reaction, Xander couldn’t help but facepalm. Then, he introduced Grace

and Callum. “Gracie, this is Callum. I call him Cal.”

Smiling, Grace waved at Callum, “Nice to meet you, Callum. I’m Grace.”

Grace? She was Grace?

In Callum and Xander’s circle, the name “Grace” wasn’t unfamiliar.



Though they had never seen her in person, they knew she was the one Xander had been yearning for

all these years.

So Callum’s excitement bubbled over. Unable to contain his emotions, he blurted out, “Nice to meet

you, Mrs. Fulton.”

These two simple words made the air stand still.

Grace felt a bit awkward. Before her brain could catch up, her cheeks turned red. She instinctively tried

to explain, “I-I’m not ”

Callum, however, thought Grace was just being shy and quickly added, “There’s no need to be formal,

Mrs. Fulton. We’re all family here. Just call me Cal from now on.”

Grace stammered for a while.

Xander pulled her closer to him, saying to Callum, “You scared her. Just call her Grace.”

He was being so manly.

Callum couldn’t help but think that Xander was so hot right now!
