Ann waited at the airport for more than an hour before Grace came to her.
Seeing Grace, Ann immediately ran over and hugged her.
"Grace!" She started crying as she hugged Grace.
Grace froze in her sudden hug and quickly hugged her back, "Don't cry.Let's go back first"
Ann shook her head.
"Grace, I don't have a home anymore.I don't know where to go.I..."
She cried before she could finish speaking.
Grace frowned and said, "Let's go to my housel"
Olivia received a call from Grace at two o'clock.
"Grace, what's the matter?"
"Olivia, something urgent came up and I need to go home now.Can I come to work later?"
"Yes, but is it very serious? Do you need my help?"
"No, Olivia.I'll call you when I'm done"
"Okay"
Grace hung up the phone very quickly.
Olivia listened to the busy tone on the phone and frowned slightly.
It was rare for Grace to be in such a hurry, so Olivia was a little worried.
Grace hung up the phone and went to the living room.
Looking at Ann, who was sitting on the sofa with a teacup in her hand, she said, "Go to my room and rest.Don't think about anything.I'll have to head back to the office now.I'll come back when I'm done"
Now that she was busy, Ann suddenly came and really caught her off guard.
But it was impossible for her to ignore the fact that Ann like it.Ann lowered her head and smiled bitterly.
"Grace, you've been busy lately.I'm disturbing you now and I'd better go back."
She put down the teacup and stood up to leave.
Grace quickly grabbed her.
"What are you talking about? Where can you go now when you are like this?"
"I don't know, but it's okay.You don't have to worry.I won't commit suicide"
How could Grace let her go after what Ann just said?
"Let me tell you, you stay put at my house now.I'll go to the company and tell Olivia so that you can come back to work!"
At least working would distract her.
And Ann had worked for Olivia before, so she should be familiar with the work.
Now that they were busy, they could use Ann's help.
But as soon as Ann heard Grace say this, she immediately said, "No!"
"You can't tell Olivia!"
She grabbed Grace's hand and pleaded, "Grace, don't tell Olivia.I left on her busiest moment.I'm sorry for what I did to Olivia"
"Don't tell her, don't tell her!"
As if afraid that Grace would tell Olivia, she pushed Grace away and looked around.
When she saw the fruit knife on the coffee table, she immediately put it on her wrist and said excitedly, "If you are going to tell Olivia, I will die in front of you!"
Grace was stunned to see Ann's movements.
"You...Don't get excited, don't get excited..." Grace reacted and said quickly.
She was really scared by what Ann just did and her face turned pale.
Seeing her like this, Ann said, "You must swear not to tell Olivia!"
"Okay, okay, I swear.I swear I won't tell Olivia.Don't be impulsive."
As she spoke, she raised her hand.
"I swear, if I tell Olivia about Ann being here, I will die a terrible death!"
Ann put down the fruit knife, and Grace immediately took it away.
Finally, she came back to her senses and shouted at Ann, "Are you out of your mind?"
Ann squatted on the ground and began to cry.
"I don't know what else to do.I'm sorry for what I did to Olivia.I can't face her.I...Woo..."
At AK Company, Olivia was stepping on the sewing machine, and a sample dress quickly took shape.
All of a sudden, she called out, "Grace, help me get that piece of knitted cloth that you made this morning-"
No one responded.
Olivia looked up.She was the only one in the design room.
Only then did she remember that Grace said she would come to the company later.
But what time was it now? Olivia looked at the time.
It was 3: 40.It had been more than an hour since Grace called her.
