NovelEnglish"Did you go abroad?" Shawn asked after a moment.
He must have seen her video. "Yep. I was visiting family." "Your relationship with Mr. Fulton is going very well." It was a statement.
Grace's voice was full of love as she said, "We're pretty stable right now. Don't envy me, Mr. Griffin. You'll have the sthing in future." She thought he was envious of her. On the other end of the phone, his lips curved without thinking. "I'm fine." "No one can be fine. Everyone yearns to be loved. Don't be anxious. That person will appear one day." She thought she was comforting him, but it made Shawn moody. He picked up the purple clay teapot. "What if she never appears?" "Hmm... Then, I'll introduce someone to you. I don't have much, but I do have a lot of girlfriends." Shawn laughed again. He was about to speak, but then he heard her cry out in pain.
He said anxiously, "What's the matter?" "I missed a step while I was going upstairs and fell." Grace inhaled sharply and looked down. Her ankle was swelling up rapidly. "Is anyone at home? Are you alright?" Grace did not like having too many housekeepers at home. They usually cto cook and clean during the day, and they all went hat night.

You don't need to go through the trouble. I can just put sointment on it." Grace hurriedly stopped him. She tried to get up to go back to her room, but she couldn't move at all.
The pain in her ankle was piercing. She had probably sprained it.
"Can you move?" Grace remained silent.
Shawn had already started the engine. "You can't move around if you've sprained your ankle. It'll swell up even more. If you don't want to go to the hospital, I'll bring smedicine over. It's really good for sprains." He spoke calmly, and it helped her to calm down.
Since he had already started off, Grace could not refuse further.
Besides, it was true that she her be able to do anything."Then, I'll have to trouble you, I'm afraid." At the stime, a Maybach parked outside the villa. The car window rolled down, and the man in the back seatdooked up at the lit windows of one of the villa's rooms. S There was a complicated expression on his face.
"Ms. Lewis lives here," Jon said.
In the rear view mirror, he saw Jake look up, and there was danger in his eyes. He flicked the ash off his cigarette.
"Do you think that Grace is beautiful?" Jon said carefully, "Of course she is. She's even prettier than a celebrity." "No wonder my older brother likes her, huh?" Jake had heard long ago that there was a woman in Xander's heart that he could not forget.
After he'd investigated it, he realized that the woman in question was already married. He had then put the matter out of his mind, but matter unexpectedly, the story had continued. Jake had never expected someone as upright and prim as Xander to accept a divorced woman.

"Remember this place. We may chere again." Jake stubbed his cigarette out and indicated for Jon to start the car.
However, right at that moment, a Volvo drove in their direction.
It was going very fast, and it stopped in front of Grace's villa.
A tall man got out of the driver's seat, holding a bag of things in his hand. He headed inside directly.
He didn't even knock as he pressed the password on the digital door lock and entered.
There was a sly light in Jake's eyes as he snorted. "That isn't my brother. Grace has a man in her hat this hour?" Jon didn't quite get what he meant. "Should we still leave?" "Wait a moment more." Shawn carried Grace downstairs, much to her embarrassment. "I'm sorry to make you chere at this hour." "If I hadn't come, you would've had to spend the night on the stairs."
