Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 370

The smugness on Jodie's face was unbearable. That arrogant confidence that someone was backing her up pissed Grace off to no end.

She was still on edge, barely holding it together. After hearing Jodie's words, she picked up a chair and threw it at Jodie.

It had happened so fast that the police officers couldn't even stop her.

Jodie couldn't dodge in time, and a bloody cut appeared on her forehead immediately. She touched the place that was bleeding in shock and almost fainted. "Grace, how dare you?"

The police officer also hurriedly stopped Grace. "Ms. Lambert, we'll lock you up if you keep acting like this!"

It wasn't the first time for Jodie to be hurt by Grace. Her gaze was filled with venom as she pressed her lips into a thin line.

"Fine! Is this how you want to play? Wait and see, I'll personally send you behind bars!" Jodie yelled.

She quickly took out her phone and called Ethan.

Like before, Ethan immediately answered the phone and heard Jodie's cries. "Uncle Ethan, I'm injured. There's a lot of blood coming out of my forehead."

Ethan was calm as he asked, "Where are you?"

"The same police station as last time. Grace is also here. She's the one who hit me."

Ethan paused, and his Adam's bobbed rolled a few times before he asked, "She's there too?"

Jodie's cries became louder as she stared at her bloodstained palm. "Yes. She's here too. She killed someone."

Just as she finished her words, the call hung up.

Jodie felt very smug. It seemed like Ethan was very worried about her.

Although her wounds were still hurting, she turned to Grace. She couldn't help but smile as she thought about how Grace would get into trouble.

"Uncle Ethan will be here soon. Grace, it looks like you haven't learned your lesson after what happened yesterday. I've told you before, Uncle Ethan will definitely help me."

Grace didn't say a word as she lowered her gaze, her mind filled with many thoughts.

Ethan came earlier than expected, with Tim following behind him.

Ethan's fingers suddenly curled up, and he pressed his lips into a thin line. After a few seconds, he asked, "What do you mean by… having nothing to say to me?"

He dragged out his words as if he had difficulty in saying them.

"I meant it literally. Yesterday's scene is still vivid in my mind. I know who Mr. Henderson will choose." Grace wiped the bloodstain off her cheeks as she said this.

"I've already contacted my lawyer, who will be here soon. As for my personal dispute with Ms. Henderson, compensation will be settled according to the legal classification of injuries. Do you have any more questions, Mr. Henderson?" Grace asked coldly.

This was the first time Ethan couldn't retort.

Jodie was so furious that she stood up and shouted at Grace, "You bitch! What is that attitude? Who do you think you are to mock Uncle Ethan like that? Do you think only you can hire a lawyer? I can also do that! I'm going to sue you to death!"

When she saw Jodie act like this, Grace couldn't help but find it amusing. She even let out a laugh. "What a fine lady you've raised, Mr. Henderson."

It was clear that she was mocking not just Ethan but both of them.

Everyone had their limits, after all—it was impossible for her not to be angry after she had been dragged into this multiple times.
