Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 963

"This time, no matter what, someone has to be sacrificed, and what's wrong with sacrificing Grace Summer alone? I already tried my best to reduce our losses as much as I could. That’s right, doing so is unfair to Grace. But there is nothing much that is fair i n this world. As the only wife to the director of the Ford Group, I have to be ruthless!"

Rose was a gifted orator, she sounded sad and pitiful, and yet loyal and righteous. Old Master Shaw had nothing to say in rebuke. In the end, the old man left Sean and Rose’s house with his tail tucked between his feet. But, how was he going to explain himself to Grace when he got home?

That night, Old Master Shaw wandered along the streets of Star Island until the wee hours of the morning. The next morning, he trudged home with heavy footsteps. The moment he stepped into the living room, he saw Grace sitting on the sofa with her pregnant belly. It was obvious that Grace did not have a wink of sleep throughout the night.

Seeing the old man return home scratching his head i n defeat, Grace smiled sadly. "Uncle, you...you failed, right?"

The old man's tone sounded tired and weary. "My dear girl...you...stay here with me for the time being. We'll... we'll take our time and think of a plan, we will..."

Grace nodded obediently. Because of the old man's protection, for the moment, Rose would not come and cause trouble to Grace.

Not only that, during that time, another major event occurred. Sean Ford officially fell out with the Payne family. The two had a major disagreement in the management of the island. As a result, within a month, Sean retracted all of his property and investment from the island, and transferred them all t o South City.

But in actuality, this major fallout was initiated by Sean himself.

Because Sean had already earned all the money that h e could on the island. The time had come for him to pour a large amount of money into the island to build its basic infrastructure.

He did not want to do so. Because, after all, he did not belong to this island, and neither was he the leader of Star Island. Besides, he did not have any interest at all in the infrastructure of the island. He would only do s o for South City, because that was his hometown, the city where he grew up in. Just like that, Sean Ford completely broke off relations with the leader of Star Island, Ben Payne.

Because of this, Ben Payne and his wife were both furious. Ben even fell terribly ill over this incident and was hospitalized for a long period of time. While his pregnant wife, Rachel York almost lost their child because of her anxiety and fluctuating emotions.

Their unborn child was only six months old and yet displayed signs of premature labor.

On the day when Rachel was sent to hospital because of premature labor, coincidentally, Grace had been hiding in the department of gynecology in the hospital. She watched on, wide-eyed, as Rachel gave birth to a stillborn baby because of her shock and anger. Maybe because of her own shock or other various reasons, Grace started experiencing contractions and labor pain herself.

"Ouch...quick...save me, save me, please..." She collapsed in the department of gynecology in the hospital.
