Chapter24
Antonio looked around the empty villa, all decorated in the style Keyla liked. Even if he married Grace back then, he didn’t care about her preferences. It was the same as his home, with Grace’s things all gone. Without her, he felt they were not his home anymore.
He threw away anything related to Keyla and sold the villa as quickly as possible. He didn’t want to come back here again.
Antonio wanted to explain everything to Grace. However, in the blink of an eye, it was time for Laney to take the SAT. Over the past few months, no one helped her study or took care of her emotions and life. As a result, her grades plummeted. Not surprisingly, her SAT grades only allowed her to be admitted into some community colleges. Antonio planned to send her abroad so that at least she could still go to college.
Ever since they knew the truth, their feelings of guilt towards Grace had been growing. After Laney’s exam, they found Grace.
Meanwhile, Grace’s career was doing good, and her relationship with Shane was gradually warming up. She had never been in a serious relationship before, and they got to know and love each other after they were married.
“Grace.”
Just off work, Grace was blocked by Antonio and Lancy at the company entrance. She thought Antonio would never come to her again. Therefore, she was very surprised to see him come to her again with Lancy.
“Laney, you shouldn’t have come with your brother. I have no more relationship with you two.”
Her words made Laney burst into tears. She knew Grace must hate her, for she had wronged her so much and even worked with Keyla to drive
her away.
“I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I didn’t know about Keyla’s plot. I didn’t know my brother liked you…”
Grace smiled. She didn’t understand what Laney was saying, and she didn’t care.
“I accept your apology, but that’s it. I don’t want to know anything more. You two should leave now.”
Seeing more and more people were getting off work, Antonio pulled. Grace away, determined to explain everything to her today.
“Antonio, let go of me!”
Grace shook off his hand. She was afraid that if Shane saw this, he would get jealous again.
Antonio explained, “I already know you had an abortion. I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was you at the hotel that night. Keyla lay next to me after you left, so I thought I had sex with her. That’s why I married her.
“If I had known it was you, and you were pregnant, I wouldn’t have…“.
Grace sneered, “You wouldn’t have what? You wouldn’t have been thinking about Keyla all the time? Antonio, I’m sure that if you knew it was me that night, you would hate me even more. As for that child, even. if I hadn’t had the abortion, you would have forced me to do so to please Keyla. After all, I’m nothing in your heart, right?”
When mentioning all this, Grace was no longer in pain. She had long walked out of that sadness, leaving time to heal her wounds.
“Grace, that’s not true. My brother really likes you. He just realized it too

late. After you left, he wasn’t himself anymore. He really knows he was Wrong. Grace, please go home with us.”
Antonio nodded in agreement. He wanted to hold Grace’s hand, but he was afraid that she would resist and then hurt herself.
“Grace, I’ll love you very much in the future. Can you give me a chance. and come back to me?”
Grace wanted to tell him that there was no more chance between them. After he made the mistake, there was no more turning back in their relationship.
At that moment, Shane walked over. When Grace saw him, her expression changed instantly. She thought he was still working overtime at the company.
“She’s my wife, so why should she go with you guys?”
He pulled Grace into his arms. He was clearly very displeased to see Antonio entangle Grace again.
Grace felt his anger and took the initiative to speak up to break the awkwardness.
“Antonio, I have already married Shane. My time with you guys is over. From now on, don’t come to me again. I don’t want to see you.”
After speaking, she took Shane’s hand, and the wedding rings on both their fingers shone brightly, making Antonio’s heart ache.
“I am very happy now. Both the ring and the person fit me well.”
