Chapter 1015
“Joann, did Darcy ask you to leave me a message?
Joanna’s eyes flickered as she put on a faint smile.
In fact, she was also very distressed and down at the moment, yet she still tried her best to comfort Grace.
“As I suggested before, take this time to clear your head, okay? When Darcy returns from Melta, I’ll definitely find a way to help you two connect if you still hold such strong feelings for him.”
Hearing this, tears welled up in Grace’s eyes, “Why is he like that? Couldn’t he just leave me a message?*
Joanna, who felt a bit nervous, quickly reassured Grace, “You know Darcy’s character; he’s introverted and not good at expressing his emotions. Well, it’s also possible that he didn’t want to fell me about it. Besides, love can’t be rushed, right? You need to allow it to progress gradually.”
“Alright. I will wait until he comes back!” Grace sighed, feeling defeated.
It was the first time she had actively pursued a man.
Besides, Darcy was someone with a much lower status than her. In Venturas, she, a lady from the prestigious Grimm family, would be expected to be with the son of a public–listed corporation or a CEO of a major corporation.
Now, she found herself lowering her class, actively pursuing a man more humble than her. She never expected that, even with her efforts, she still could not win him over.
Joanna patted her shoulder and said, “Let’s go. Did you come to Greyport today just to give him something?”
Grace held back her sob and responded in a plaintive tone, “Yes. You know, I sent him messages all night, but he didn’t reply to a single one.”
Joanna faltered for a moment, then handed her a tissue, “Cheer up. Let’s go shopping together!”
Grace took the tissue and wiped her tears away. “I’m not in the mood.”
Joanna said with a smile, “Come on! Let’s go. A little shopping will lift your spirits. I happen to have some free time today, so we can just unwind a little. By the way, how is Jaydon doing settling the matter?”
“He will probably be very busy during this period of time. He’s going to the company today for a staff meeting to take over my father’s firm. Also, he will be suing and liquidating the assets of Cassius. Well, I’m afraid he will be quite busy in the following days.”
“Right. After all, he will have to tend to the lawsuit and the company. Well, let’s go shopping! Let the men solve their problems, eh?”
Joanna said as she put her arm around Grace’s shoulder.
She was indeed a few years older than Grace,
However, the dup share a lot of common topic Joanna, who did not have many female friends in Greyport, was pleased to have Grace as her bestie.
Of course, the fact that she had no female friends did not necessarily imply that site was not Mable Rather, it was that, from a young age, he life had been in a state of rapid
turbulence.
She lived abroad before she was 12. When she returned, she found herself marginalized in the Haynes family. As a result, she could only devote all her energy to her studies, which enabled her to skip grades and enter a university by the age of merely 16.
When she started attending university, she was surrounded by people who were not quite her because she was the youngest among all
age
Moreover, before she could even complete her studies, the “scandal‘ with Bruce, which rocked the whole Greyport, had occurred. Therefore, how could she possibly have made a close friend?
Besides, she went abroad to live for another four years after her divorce with Bruce. Therefore, it had become even more difficult for her to make female friends.
Now that she was a billion–dollar wealthy lady, she found herself feeling rather lonely. Many individuals could hardly get close to her, and even if they did, they did so with an agenda.
Grace, who came from a wealthy family, was unlike those people. In other words, there was no inequality or profit–seeking in the presence of Joanna.
Therefore, the two could become good friends.
