Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 470

Winter arrived.

Ethan stood under the scaffolding, blowing out a puff of white breath as he held a newly printed business license—'Haven Decor.'

The name was tacky, but he didn't care.

He had used the money Serena gave him to open a renovation company.

“Ethan, this shipment of paint is here. Want to inspect it?” the foreman asked, offering him a cigarette.

Ethan waved it away. “I quit. Saving money.”

He dusted off his clothes and smiled with a simple-minded honesty. “I need to save up. I was immature before and let my family down. Now I want to work hard and turn my life around.”

The foreman gave him a thumbs-up. “It’s a great thing to see a man turn his life around. You’re a real man, Ethan!”

Ethan just smiled without a word.

At the Clarke family's villa.

The radiant heat was cranked up high. Grace, dressed in loungewear, was on the rug playing with blocks with Gianna.

At seven months old, Gianna could already sit up steadily. She held a red block, gurgling as she tried to stuff it into her mouth.

“That’s dirty.”

Grace gently took it from her and wiped her tiny hands with a baby wipe.

Snowflakes began to drift outside the window.

Watching the blanket of white, Grace’s gaze drifted for a moment.

Six years ago, during a winter just like this, the snow had been just as heavy.

She had been at the Ward family's house, burning with a high fever, yet still had to cook for the entire family.

“What are you thinking about?”

Damien’s voice from above her broke her from her reverie.

Grace came back to the present.

“Nothing,” she said, pulling her shawl tighter. “I was just thinking that this winter doesn't seem so cold.”

Damien sat down beside her, casually wrapping an arm around her.

“That’s because the heating in the house is strong.”

Grace smiled. “Yes, it’s very strong.”

“Oh,” Damien said as if suddenly remembering something, pointing to a large box in the entryway. “An international package just arrived. It’s from Verstein.”

Verstein?
