Erhai Lake, Yunnan.
Memory Inn.
On the day that Grace was discharged from the hospital, Ingemar followed her back to the Memory Inn shamelessly. He used his beauty and got checked in with the help of Carol.
Grace wished she could send this little girl a thousand miles away to remain calm.
But she only realized what had happened after Ingemar checking in.
These days, Carol felt wronged. Her boss did not talk to her and ignored her.
Carol was mad when she saw Ingemar’s seductive face.
“Boss, that old lady is here again.”
Carol was at the bar when she saw that annoying figure.
The corner of Grace’s eyes swept past the figure. Then she closed her eyes and ignored it.
Carol hated Mrs. James. She was obviously not that old, but Carol kept calling her old lady.
Mrs. James detested Carol, but she could only glare at her.
She didn’t forget why she was here.
When Grace was admitted to the hospital, Mrs. James also went to visit her. But no matter how hard she tried, there was no way she could approach the ward under Ingemar’s nose.
After Grace was discharged from the hospital, she came to the Memory Inn for days.
Mrs. James looked at her indifferent daughter, her heart bleeding.
She knew that she owed her daughter.
She knew that she deserved it.
However, Payne was still waiting for her to save him on the hospital bed!
And Jafar was an old jerk who lost humanity!
He cared more about that illegitimate child than her son!
Mrs. James had been well-off all these years. No matter how dissatisfied she was, she knew very well that if she lost a son, she would have nothing!
Jafar was an ungrateful man. If she was old without a son, he wouldn’t think much of her.
“Grace.” Mrs. James walked to the woman who was resting with her eyes closed. Her lips moved. She was embarrassed to speak out, but what could she do?
She was helpless. If there was any other way, she would not be willing to force her daughter.
“I know your intention. Don’t say anything.” The woman kept her eyes closed, ignoring the piteous woman beside her.
“No!” Mrs. James subconsciously retorted, her eyes filled with difficulty. Her lips moved and she finally said, “I’m not here for the bone marrow.”
The woman on the rattan chair remained expressionless.
Mrs. James sighed helplessly. She could only say what the person on the phone had told her this morning,
“I ... I want ...” She paused for a moment, thinking that she should stop. But when she remembered the instructions on the phone, she gritted her teeth fiercely.
“Grace, could you go beg President Shaw?”
Grace finally opened her eyes and glanced at Mrs. James with a forced smile, “President Shaw?”
Seeing that she had finally opened her eyes, Mrs. James’s eyes which were lined with crow’s feet suddenly lit up. She anxiously grabbed Grace’s hand and hurriedly said,
“Caden Shaw, President Shaw of the Shaw Group. The man you love.”
Mrs. James, who was in a hurry to show her intention, did not see the woman wearing an indescribable expression, whose palm was clutched tightly.
She only wanted to achieve her goal.
“Grace, you go beg Caden, okay?

How can a woman suffer so much? How can a man be too cruel initially robbing her of dignity and all, then deceiving her after he knows he loves her? How can they not remarry, making their offspring illegitimate? The line between love and hatred is truly fine indeed! Thank you for this story....
