Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 239

Jodie stomped her foot several times, wanting Ethan to step in and stand up for her.

Ethan only glanced at her, noticing that Grace was bent over, slowly picking up the documents scattered on the floor. He felt his heart tighten.

"Grace," he called out.

By the time Grace straightened up, she was still holding the documents in her hands, and a polite smile appeared on her face.

"I understand. You want me to apologize to Ms. Henderson, right?" she said.

She gave a small bow. "I'm sorry, Ms. Henderson, but the CEO of Yule Group is still waiting for me, so I'll have to excuse myself."

With that, she turned and walked out, not even sparing a glance at Ethan.

Jodie watched her leave, nearly bursting into an angry scream.

"Uncle Ethan, do you see that? She clearly doesn't care about you at all! Fire her! Anyone could do this job. She's just a lowly worker!"

"Jodie."

Ethan's voice suddenly turned serious.

Jodie's heart skipped a beat, and she realized she had crossed a line. She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry! I said the wrong things. Uncle Ethan, please don't be angry."

Ethan's expression remained stern as he entered his office.

Jodie didn't follow him in. Her eyes flashed with malice.

That damn Grace! She would make sure that bitch paid for this.

…

Meanwhile, Grace was already in her car, driving to Yule Group.

When she arrived at the lobby, she explained her purpose to the receptionist.

The receptionist made a quick call, then smiled politely. "Sorry, but Mr. Yule is unavailable right now."

Grace knew this was Simon's way of asserting dominance, so she simply smiled and said, "It's fine, I'm here on behalf of Henderson Group for a collaboration. Whenever Mr. Yule is free, please let me know. I'll be waiting on the couch just over there."

By mentioning Henderson Group, she was subtly reminding Simon that when he was going after Grace, he had to consider who Grace was connected to.

The receptionist smiled politely, "Understood. I'll inform Mr. Yule."
