NovelEnglishYancey hadn't been attending these kinds of social events much lately, and no
one knew what he was doing. After seeing Yancey leave, the people in the private room continued gossiping
even louder.
They all knew that Yancey seemed to like Grace again, but Grace's eyes were set on that male escort. She didn't
even glance at Yancey's way.
After leaving the private room, Yancey continued his call with Jodie. "Jodie, what do you mean by completely
taking care of the problem?"
He couldn't hear anything before as the private room was too noisy, but he had a feeling that it was about
Grace.
Jodie was in a great mood tonight, so she immediately spilled the secret between her and Joanne to Yancey.
"Yancey, | believe that you hate Grace too, right?" Jodie asked.
Yancey clenched his fist as he looked up at the dark sky.
"Did you guys succeed?" When he was asking this, a hint of light flashed in his eyes.
Jodie's tone immediately bectriumphant. "Of course. But | still don't know what Joanne plans to do next.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe's more quick-witted thanand always full of ideas. I'll give her a call after a few days to check with her.
And by the way, Grace still doesn't know that Joanne has never considered her a friend."
Yancey quietly sneered. Grace had brought this onto herself. Who knew where her true feelings really lay?
He hadn't planned to get involved in this as long as Grace stayed alive. When everyone turned their back on her
and he was the only one standing beside her, she would finally realize how much he truly cared.
But he just couldn't let go. The bitterness and resentment had been boiling within him, spiraling out of control
and almost pushing him to the brink of insanity.
The only way he could stop himself from doing something reckless was to take it out in the boxing ring. So, he
decided to wait and see for now.
"Yancey, are you still listening? | have a feeling that Joanne won't let Grace die so easily. All we need to do is to
just quietly wait for her good news. Have you heard everyone talking about the male escort that Grace is
keeping? Who knows if she caught something from him?" Jodie speculated.
Even though Joanne and Jodie were the ones who started the rumor, Jodie believed in it.
If Grace's boyfriend were actually someone respectable, then she wouldn't have been hiding him f for such a
long time. So, the only reasonable conclusion was that her boyfriend might have been kept by other rich women.
And because of that, Grace was afraid to introduce him to other people. Just like that, she beca
laughingstock. s
After hanging up the call, Yancey stood there and smoked several cigarettes. He
felt his mind clear up after every drag. In the end, he called Joanne.
"Let's work together," he suggested.
Joanne raised an eyebrow, wondering if she had misheard him.
She wondered what made her so special that a member of the Henderson family would voluntarily cto her
to offer a joint cooperation. Still, Yancey was at least more reliable than Jodie. He might even be of suse.
"Mr. Henderson, how do you want to work together?" she asked.
A smile tugged at the corner of Yancey's lips. "We have the sgoal-to not let Grace die so easily want her to
completely rate Ethan and never be able to get together with him again. And then, I'll take her to another city to
start a new life."
s
Joanne let out a quiet scoff. It seemed that Yancey hadn't gotten over Grace. How
lucky she was.
"Sure. Let's meet up and then we'll discuss the specifics," she replied.
Her attitude had beca bit arrogant.
To her, people who couldn't win people's hearts were nothing but fools. Yancey clearly had feelings for Grace in
the past, but ssweet talk from Alice had him wrapped around Her fingers. His regretmeant nothing now. s
In her eyes, these people were nothing special compared to her. It was just that
they had been born into privilege, but they had nothing else to show for it.
They were not like her. Her goal had always been the same, never changing.
