A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1458

Grace raised her eyebrows and paused the TV series, "Why did he leave his watch at your place?”

"Didn't he tell you he went to the island with me and Jovanny? We stayed there for a week and came back yesterday." Bailee fixed her eyes on Grace's face for fear of missing any of her subtle expressions.

Grace rubbed the watch with the utmost calmness for a while and then put it in her bag. Surprisingly, she even thanked Bailee.

Bailee wrinkled her brow. Grace wasn't as angry as she thought. On the contrary, she was pretty calm.

'Is she really as calm as she looks?' Bailee

wondered.

Then she observed Grace for a while but found nothing. She thought, 'Anyway, I've planted the bomb, and a conflict between them is inevitable.'

It was more than ten o'clock in the evening after the stock-take. And it was raining cats and dogs outside.

When Grace tried to get the car started, the back seat door opened, and Mckenzie and Hailee got in.

Grace looked up at them in the rearview mirror.

"My driver took the day off today. Now it's raining cats and dogs, and it's hard to get a cab. Would you drop us off at the villa?" Mckenzie said.

"Auntie, Grace is not an outsider. She’s your daughter-in-law. How could she leave you in the rain?" Hailee said with a smile.

A shadow of a sneer touched Grace's mouth. How could she say no when they put it that way?

'Humph! As the old saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. How could they be so cheeky?' Grace thought.

The rain was so heavy that the road could not be seen clearly.

Not daring to drive too fast, Grace drove carefully to the Morgan family's villa and then back to her apartment.
