Lily and the others were furious when they couldn't find Grace.
Hendricks hadn't expected that Grace would escape again when she was right in front of him. He raised his hand and slapped a bodyguard hard across the face. "Useless! You can't even find one woman! Look into who was in that car. What was the license plate?"
The bodyguard reported the plate number and also emphasized, "That car had a small flag in the front that wasn't too noticeable."
Yancey immediately jumped up in shock. "That's impossible!"
In all of Druville, the only person who was allowed to display a small flag at the front of the car was Ethan, but Ethan hadn't been here in years.
Back then, Ethan's legs had been crippled because of Grace. He probably hated her to the core, so why would he pick Grace up?
The bodyguards must have been mistaken.
Yancey felt a growing sense of unease and turned to Lily. "Mom, just look at what happened to the rotten plan you came up with!"
Lily took a deep breath and patted him on the shoulder. "Yancey, why do you get so worked up whenever Grace is mentioned?"
It seemed like Lily had struck a nerve because Yancey hurriedly explained, "That's not it. I just want her to be humiliated and beg for my forgiveness."
Lily grabbed Alice's hand and placed it in his palm. "That's enough. Just focus on treating Alice well in the future. I'll personally discuss the engagement with the Lambert family. Since Hendricks likes Grace, we might as well host two weddings at once."
She was suggesting that Yancey marry Alice while Hendricks married Grace. As for Grace's personal opinion, it wasn't important at all. The Lambert family would agree to it anyway.
Yancey felt like something was choking his throat. He wanted to object to it, but no words came out.
