Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 57

"Of course, my daughter is very outstanding. She was already very impressive during her internship at the company a few years ago. I thought she messed up this time, but there was an unexpected twist."

"Haha, Quentin, I'm just letting you know in secret. The higher-ups are very pleased with her abilities, and she even put the local apples on the map this time. You should give her a call and praise her."

"Sure, sure."

Quentin's face was full of joy. After hanging up the phone, he sighed and said, "Liam, you should learn more from Alice. She's only been in Southbrook for a week, and the higher-ups are already calling to praise her."

Liam pouted. "That's not surprising. I had always believed that Alice would succeed in everything she does."

Quentin smiled. With Alice and Liam managing the company together in the future, he, as a father, could retire in peace. He transferred 800 thousand dollars to Alice for her to buy something she liked.

When Alice received the payment notification, she was a bit surprised, and then her lips curved into a smile. It seemed that Grace had taken the blame for her again. Well, it served her right.

She looked at the farmers outside with disdainful eyes. These country bumpkins would never earn 800 thousand dollars even if they worked hard for a lifetime.

What right did they have to stop her car? They were really pushing their luck. She directly called the security guards and had them drive those people away.

However, the people of Southbrook were used to being arrogant and wouldn't tolerate this kind of treatment. They immediately got into a scuffle with the security guards.

Some even swung sticks toward the car, smashing the windows. Only then did Alice realize that they were a bunch of unreasonable barbarians.

She screamed and instantly hid in Yancey's arms. Yancey's face was scratched by the shattered glass shards. As he held Alice in his arms, he recalled the night he had spent with Grace.
