"Of course, I will support every decision you make, as long as they are truly your own thoughts, unaffected and unthreatened by anyone," said Horace. He was a very independent person, and his parents trusted him enough not to force him into anything he didn't like or coerce him, which is why he had become the person he was today.
Grace looked at Horace and took a silent breath. She said, "Thank you for believing in me and being willing to support me."
"Silly!" Horace gently raised his hand and embraced her, his voice still very gentle as he said, "Since you've made the decision, then continue on according to your choice. You have to believe that no matter when, I will always be on your side, okay?"
"Yes, I know," Grace pursed her lips.
The two continued walking back, and the distance was actually quite far. After a while, they had a driver come to pick them up.
With someone accompanying her, Grace felt that time passed quickly.
These past few days were the most social she had been since coming here because Horace took her everywhere during the day and had dinner with his parents in the evening.
Although his parents had been living abroad all the time, their lifestyle was similar to Grace's, so there were no issues at all.
While Grace felt time flew by, Ayan felt that time was dragging on.
After Ayan and Kian returned to the hotel, they started a video conference to handle matters regarding the Simpson Group. No one at the Simpson Group knew that he had already gone abroad, so they assumed he was working from home.
Since he didn't need to report to anyone, he could remain invisible even if he didn't show up.
Ayan dealt with work through video, and time ticked away, but he realized it had only been an hour.
At this moment, it was already time to finish work in the country.
But today, all the top executives at the Simpson Group were working overtime because the meeting was still ongoing. It wouldn't be possible to suggest leaving and interrupting the meeting, right?
Camille and Sienna also left the company together and drove to Darkmoor.
When they arrived at Darkmoor, Ayan's assistant had already ordered the food in advance. So when Camille and Sienna returned to the private room, the manager of Darkmoor immediately came over and asked, "Mrs. Simpson, should we serve the dishes now?"
Camille glanced at the time and because Crystal hadn't arrived yet, she could only say, "Not yet, let me tell you when everyone is here."
The manager nodded and left the private room.
Only Camille and Sienna remained in the room, sitting side by side. Sienna asked in a low voice, "Why hasn't she arrived yet?"
"Did you send her the address?"
"Yes, I sent it in the afternoon." Sienna checked her phone again and found no message from Crystal. Taking the opportunity while Crystal hadn't arrived yet, she lowered her voice and said, "When we meet Crystal later, should we ask her? What do you think?"
"Ask her about what?"
"It's just..." Sienna blinked her eyes, feeling a bit hesitant. "Ask her why she's so proactive towards me. Don't you want to know?"
"To be honest, I'm not that curious because she approached you first, so the curiosity should be directed at you. Anyway, I can hold myself back." Camille smirked mischievously, making Sienna unable to resist getting frustrated.
