Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 404

From Grace's perspective, all she could see was Ethan pondering something in front of the wardrobe.

When she walked out of the bathroom, she put on a pair of fluffy slippers. She lowered her gaze to her toes, unsure how to start the conversation.

At this moment, her phone rang—it was Yasmine calling. "Grace, what's going on between you and Ethan? Everyone is talking about it."

Yasmine was the one who had sent Grace the invitation card to tonight's banquet. Yasmine hadn't been there, but she knew exactly what had happened.

Grace could hear some noise on Yasmine's end, and with Ethan standing at the side, it was hard for Grace to explain. Thus, she changed the subject. "Where are you?"

"I'm at The Obsidian," replied Yasmine.

If even Yasmine, who was in The Obsidian, had heard the news—then what about Ed, who worked there?

This was bad.

Grace quickly hung up on Yasmine and rushed out of the bedroom into the hallway. She called Ed, but there was no answer.

She was so anxious that her cheeks felt as though they were burning. The effects of the drug still hadn't worn off. She slapped her cheek hard and called Ed again, but he still didn't pick up.

Her heart raced in panic. Ed had a mental disorder and was especially sensitive about anything related to Ethan. He had even threatened to jump off a cliff last time.

If he had heard from someone else about Ethan and her, would he do something reckless out of anger? When he was fixated, there was no telling what he might do.

She paced back and forth, dialing the phone repeatedly. She almost bumped into Ethan when he came out of the master bedroom.

She still hadn't explained what had happened tonight to Ethan. Distressed, she slowly set her phone down and decided to resolve things with Ethan first before going straight to find Ed.

"Mr. Henderson, just tell me how you want me to compensate you."
