A scornful smile tugged at Grace’s lips. “You seem so pressed, but after what your son did to both of my daughters, I’m still not nearly as impatient as you.”
“What are you talking about?”
Albert stared at her, completely baffled. He didn’t believe a word she was saying.
“Let me tell you this–you can’t just throw dirt on me just because our families have worked together for years. That doesn’t give you the right to pin everything on me.”
That set Grace off instantly.
“Then tell me, where is your son right now? Bring him here. I’d like to ask him myself.”
She looked at Albert’s shameless, unbothered expression and felt a pulse of frustration behind her brow.
How had she never realized before just how shameless this man really was?
Back when they first started working together, everything had seemed perfectly cordial.

His wife and he had both worked hard to cover what Julian did with Lily.
If that got out, the consequences would be disastrous.
And now Grace was talking about harm done to both of her daughters.
Albert wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and couldn’t help but speak.

“Madam Grace, are you sure this isn’t just a misunderstanding? Because honestly, my son really isn’t even in the country right now.‘
”
Grace gave a cold snort. “Exactly. The fact that he’s not in the country is why this can’t be a misunderstanding.”
Albert looked even more confused.
Staring at her, he started to regret it all.
If only he’d listened when Julian had asked him to step in and help
Maybe none of this would’ve spiraled like it had.
But there was no turning back time–no undoing what was done.
While Albert stood there lost in thought, Jason had already organized the latest documents, even adding a neatly labeled timeline.
Grace gave a small nod, her eyes filled with approval.
