Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 920

She adored him, worshipped him, and would even throw fits of jealous rage over him...

If he could have it his way, Richard would have kept both women.

He would have kept Grace to manage the company for him, charging into battle and shielding him from the storms of the corporate world.

As for Jocelyn, she only needed to stay by his side and keep him company.

Finally, on one rainy night, he brought Jocelyn and her son home, lying straight to Grace's face. "I was held hostage, and Jocelyn saved my life. I felt sorry for this widowed mother and her child, so I offered them a roof over their heads."

In reality, the child Jocelyn brought with her was his own flesh and blood—Lawrence.

Grace was a proud woman. She didn't even bother to act jealous or throw a tantrum. She simply said, "Do whatever you want."

Then, she walked away.

After that, Grace went to work as usual, raised her son as usual, and went shopping as usual. Her life remained completely unchanged.

However, from that day forward, he was permanently barred from entering her bedroom.

He tried a few times afterward, but she would just say, "I'm a germaphobe. I despise sharing a room with something filthy. You should go find your Jocelyn."

"Grace, she and I are just..."

"I know. You and she are just friends. But what does that have to do with me? I already told you, I'm a germaphobe. If you feel uncomfortable, you can take Jocelyn and move somewhere else. I promise I won't bother you.

Or, I could just go tell your father the truth."

Richard chickened out. If the old man found out he was keeping a mistress and had moved her into the main estate, he would beat him half to death.

Whatever. As long as Grace didn't cause trouble, having Jocelyn's company was perfectly fine.

But ultimately, one roof could not harbor two women.
