She Took My Place (Ashley and Grace) novel Chapter 64

hapter 64 

After several rings, the phone still wasn’t connected, and Grace started to feel embarrassed. 

The seconds ticked by, and Antonio lost his patience. 

He didn’t believe her after all, and no longer wanted to witness any more of Grace’s acts there. 

Suddenly, a car came straight towards the three of them, 

“Watch out!” Antonio said, and without thinking, he shielded Livia and moved her to safety. 

The car was half a meter away when Grace noticed the danger and tried to dodge, but she ended up rolling away with half her body scraping against the car. 

The accident terrified Livia into screaming. “Oh my god!” 

“Baby, relax, I got you,” Antonio held Livia lovingly. 

Worried about Livia, Antonio didn’t have time to deal with Grace. He picked Livia up and left in his car. 

Grace tumbled several meters away, her calf scraped raw and exposed, making her quiver with pain. 

Just as she pushed herself up from the ground, Antonio sped past her in his car. 

He never once glanced at the injured Grace, and she held back

the tears that wanted to come out of her so much. 

Dust filled the air, making Grace cough violently, and her eyes, turned even redder from the irritation. 

Finally, as she calmed down, her phone, which had fallen aside, started ringing with a voice. In the middle of all the commotion, the call had finally been connected. 

“Grace, what’s wrong?” 

Hearing Devin’s voice, Grace quickly picked up her phone. “Nothing, just a sore throat. Don’t worry.” 

thin sighed. “Are you sure you are ok? Do you need to go to 

the doctor?” 

She quickly responded. “No, no, I am ok. I wanted to tell you that I found a house. It might be a bit pricey, though. Do you want to see the photos?” 

From the phone came Devin’s deep voice. “No need. If you’re happy with it, I am too. After all, you’ll be in charge of household matters.” 

Grace smiled, masking her pain with a cheerful response, “Then let’s get this one.” 

Devin had no objections, and Grace didn’t want to disturb him any further. 

As she was about to end the call, his soft voice reached her ear. “Grace, we are husband and wife now. No matter what happens to you, you’ve got to let me know, OK?” 

Grace hesitated for a moment, then softly responded with a yes.

She hobbled alone to the hospital and ended up getting more than ten stitches. Antonio never tried to even call her to see if 

she was ok. 

After a few days of recuperation in the hospital, Grace was back. at the Kaufman’s residence to continue her work. 

Just as she wrapped up the arrangements for a meeting Antonio had in two days, Morton Leach, one of Antonio‘ company’s staff knocked and entered, his face full with worry. 

“Grace, do you know where Mr. Kaufman is? We can’t reach him, and Highfair Group is pressing us to send over the contract today. What should we do?” 

Having been closely involved with the project of Highfair Group, Grace was well aware of its significance. 

She couldn’t bear to see all the months of their hard work go to waste, so she took the documents and decided to give it a try. 

Grace hailed a cab, opened Livia’s Instagram, and gave the driver the address of the hot spring resort Livia had shared an hour earlier. 

On her way, she called Antonio several times but couldn’t get through, which made her anxious. Were they going to be there when she got there? 

When she arrived at the resort, Livia and Antonio were having coffee. 

The moment he saw her, Antonio smiling face clouded over. 

“What are you doing here?”

Grace knew this would spoil his good mood, but given the urgency, she had no choice but to patiently explain herself. 

“This is about the Highfair Group, and they asked Mr. Morton to send the contract today.” 

Hearing that it was about work, Livia stood up. 

“Antonio, if you have to deal with work, let’s head back.”
