Chapter 1052

Although Albert’s temper wasn’t the best, he had always treated his butler generously.

His pay and benefits had never been withheld.

But now, even the butler felt Albert had changed.

He still believed it was Grace who had driven him to this point.

No matter who it was, being pressured under such circumstances would leave anyone feeling

uncomfortable.

Grace looked over at Tessa, whose eyes were filled with panic.

A pang of heartache welled up inside her.

She assumed Tessa was simply too frightened.

After all, Julian was the one who had once strangled her.

She was just a defenseless young woman–what malicious intent could she possibly have?

And when it came to someone like Julian, he was nothing short of an enemy.

Her fear was perfectly understandable.

Grace said, “Since you’ve agreed to hand him over for me to deal with, I’ll send people to search for him.

“Once we find him, I won’t be sending him back to your family–I’ll have him taken straight to the police

station.”

Her tone was firm as she left those words hanging.

Albert, however, looked pleased. “No problem, no problem. You can take him straight away. I don’t intend

to acknowledge him any longer.

“He’s a useless man and keeping him around just irritates me.

“Besides, he did hurt your daughter, and that was our fault. We’ll make it right.”

Grace looked at Albert’s sly, foxlike smile and found it laughable.

She could admit she loved money, but she was far from being that desperate.

No matter what, her child was still her most precious treasure.

Otherwise, even with billions in assets, if there were no heirs, wouldn’t it all end up divided among

others?

Grace understood that well enough.

What she didn’t understand was how Albert could be so ruthless toward Julian.

“Are you sure you’ve thought this through?”

Albert nodded. “Of course. I have no hesitation. If he dared to feign madness to deceive us, then he should be prepared to bear the consequences. Besides, this whole matter was his fault to begin with.”

Grace actually found herself persuaded by Albert’s words.

Seeing the certainty on his face, she said nothing more in the end.

After all, he wasn’t her child.

Since his own parents had already made their decision, nothing she said here would change anything.

“Alright, then I’ll send my people to find him.”
