Chapter 254, Grace scoffed. "Do you even realize who Ethan Henderson is?" Carmen's face flushed. Earlier, she had been swept up in Grace's fantasy and believed that Ethan would want to court Grace. u, check on her." Grace, please. [beg you. Alice is your sister. Just go Grace turned to Quentin, who was lying in bed, worry carved deep into his face. She took a deep breath. "This is the last tI'm doing this.

After checking what hotel they were at, Grace gave Ethan a call when she stepped out of the building. Thinking about how he had handled Levi before, she was genuinely afraid that if she was even a minute late, Alice would be dead. She knew, without a doubt, that Alice had tried to drug Ethan. Ethan picked up the call, but he sounded breathless.
---- He was definitely not himself. "Grace..." "T'm on my way, Mr. Henderson. Please show mercy toward Alice. We can explain, Please don't do anything reckless." "Grace... My head... It's spinning." So, it was true-he'd been drugged. Grace was in full panic mode now. If something were to happen to Ethan, not only her but the whole Lambert family would be doomed. Where the hell did Alice get the nerve to think that Ethan would ever want her? Grace went up the elevator, and when she got to the door, she saw Alice curled up in the corridor. Alice was sobbing, her clothes streaked with blood. Seeing that she was still alive, Grace was relieved. At least Quentin wouldn't have to deal with the trauma of losing her. Without giving Alice another look, Grace pushed the door open. She did not see the terror in Alice's eyes. "Mr. Henderson." She had barely stepped inside when something yanked her with great force. "Mr.
Henderson-" Ethan slammed her against the door, crushing his mouth against hers. His hands were moving quickly downward, going places that they had no business going. Panic shot through Grace-so much so that she slapped him hard. The sound of the slap was so loud that it echoed throughout the room. Ethan's head jerked to the side, but he remained silent. His ---- hands stopped moving. Grace's heart pounded as she quickly stepped away and turned onthe lights. The room was a mess.
Not only were there blood stains everywhere, but a sickening sweet fragrance choked the air. Ethan leaned on the door frwith his head hung, lost in thought. Grace had spotted the gun on the coffee table. It looked like Ethan had considered taking Alice's life, but he eventually gave up on the idea. "Mr. Henderson, it's Grace. You're not yourself right now, and I know you wouldn't fall for a setup this pathetic. I had no choice but to slap you. Once you caround, you can do whatever you want to me." Ethan licked the blood on the corners of his mouth and raised his head to look at her. Grace had always felt like there was a beast locked inside him -wild, broken, and filled with darkness. Seeing that he was about to walk toward her, she quickly grabbed the gun. "Don't cany closer." Her expression was eerily calm. Then, she armed the gun. Ethan froze, stopping in place. She didn't want things to go this way.

But if something were to happen between her and Ethan because of the drugs, she would have to quit her with Ed.

Seeing this, Ethan paused for a moment and then slowly took a step forward. "Are you going to shoot me?"
