Chapter 218 The Old Man Was Abandoned

At this point, if she pretended to be dead, she would only be guilty. So in the end, Grace decided to be honest!

After dinner, when Cecelia went to take a shower, Grace followed William to the study.

She told William everything that had happened that day, but she didn't know whether she should tell William about her meeting with Cyrus or not.

Tell him, what if the boss gets angry on the spot?

If she didn't say it, what if the boss went down to investigate and found out that she was lying...

William saw Grace's hesitation, but he just looked at her indifferently and did not urge her to say a word.

Grace hesitated for a while and decided to tell the truth.

"Boss, we met Cyrus." Grace looked serious. "It's all my fault. I didn't expect that Cyrus would follow me, and he didn't stop my sister-in-law. Boss, punish me!"

William seemed to have understood everything. He had no expression on his handsome face and only asked, "What did they say?"

"Nothing much. My sister-in-law just asked a few questions. She didn't seem to know Cyrus's real name, so she asked him what he was called."

Grace didn't say it so directly because she knew that William would think of many things.

William's expression remained unchanged, but his gaze was a little deeper than before. "Did she give him anything?"

"No," Grace replied. "They sat in the cafe for less than ten minutes. Then I pulled my sister-in-law out. She didn't give him anything."

While Grace was telling the truth, she did not forget to take off her clothes and respectfully called Cecelia sister-in-law.

She hoped that her boss would understand that everything that happened today was an accident, and she was also very helpless.

This time, William didn't ask any more questions, but he didn't say anything. He just sat there and didn't say anything.

His behavior made Grace nervous. She might as well give her brother a good time.

The waiting process was the hardest. In just two minutes, Grace felt as if two centuries had passed.

Finally, William withdrew his gaze from the window and waved at her.

Grace was relieved. "Thank you, boss, thank you, boss!"

Grace did not dare to tarry. Fearing William would change his mind, she hurried out.

At this moment, she felt as if she had survived a disaster.

When she opened the door of the study and bumped into Cecelia who had just taken a shower, she was shocked. "How, how did you wash so fast? I said I came to borrow something from your husband. Will you believe me?"

The reason why she looked like this was that she was afraid Cecelia would know about her relationship with William. After all, she had suspected him not long ago.

Cecelia could tell at a glance her panic. If she was just borrowing something, why was she in such a panic?

Therefore, there must be something that she didn't know between them. Could it be that the two of them were like the ones in the novels that made her light up?

No, no, Grace was not that kind of person at all. She had said that she was her best friend, so she would never do anything to hurt her.

But why did the two of them enter the study together as soon as she went to take a shower?

Cecelia felt that he had thought too much. The reason Grace panicked was that she was afraid of misunderstanding.

Yes, that's it!

Grace was her best friend. How could she doubt her?

Cecelia felt a bit embarrassed because he suspected Grace.

Yes, in novels, there were indeed a lot of best friends who dug up walls, but Grace would never betray her.

Cecelia like she had developed wishful thinking because she had read too many novels.

As if he had figured it out, Cecelia gave Grace a big smile. "Yes, of course I do."

"Cecelia..."

Cecelia's trust in her made Grace feel a little guilty. She wanted to say something but dared not.

Until now, William had not allowed her to reveal her true identity. It should not be the time yet. Therefore, no matter how much guilt she felt, she had to endure it.

"Well, what's wrong?" She wanted to say something but stopped. Cecelia also saw it. "What do you want to say?"

"Yes..." Yes, she couldn't say that, but what should she say?

As soon as she lowered her head, she saw Cecelia's feet without shoes. She immediately frowned and said, "Go and wear shoes!"

"..."

How could this be exactly the same as her old man's?

Cecelia did not immediately put on his shoes. Instead, he looked at William in the study through the closed door. Seeing that he seemed to be busy, he pulled Grace and said, "Let's go."

"What are you doing?" Grace was confused. "Why are you so flustered?"

"I want to sleep with you tonight!"

"..." Grace was frightened. "I'd better not, I..."

"Don't refuse!"

"..." It was not that she wanted to refuse, but that she just came back from the edge of death. Could he stop harming her?

"I'm so tired!"

It was extremely tiring!

Cecelia insisted on sleeping with Grace. Grace was afraid of being blamed by William, so she found all kinds of reasons.

For example, he said, "I not only snore but also grind my teeth and fart. When it's serious, I'll sleepwalk. I'm used to sleeping alone. If I sleepwalk in the middle of the night and beat you up like a bad person, I won't be able to play well."

"You didn't seem to have so many problems before. I slept with you when I was at home. You slept well. Who told you that you had so many sleepless problems?"

Grace was at a loss. She had gone to her house and completely forgotten what she had slept with her.

If this one doesn't work, then...

"If you sleep with me, what about your man?" Grace smiled obscenely. "Do you have the heart to let your brother stay alone in your room?"

"Humph, you've been at my house for several days. What's wrong with me sleeping with you for a night?" Cecelia snorted. "Don't think my brother is so stingy. He's very generous, okay? You see, tonight, I made so many delicious dishes for you, but you didn't eat them.

By the way, you had such a good appetite before, and you never picked anything to eat. What happened to you tonight?"

"Nothing. It's just that the taste is not suitable. Oh, don't ask this question, okay?" Grace thought of the delicious food on the table and she didn't even have a bite, she was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. "If you really want to sleep with me, go tell your brother first. I don't want him to think that I abducted his woman and made him stay alone."

"... Okay, okay, I'll tell him!"

Well, in fact, it was not unreasonable for Grace to worry, so she had better go and tell him!

Cecelia came to the study room. William seemed to be looking at something. As soon as he saw her come in, he immediately put it in the drawer and walked toward her as if nothing had happened.

Although Cecelia was curious, she didn't say anything. If he didn't want her to see it, she wouldn't. Anyway, she didn't care. Hmph.

The little woman's face was not very good. She said, "I'm going to sleep with Grace tonight. Go to sleep yourself!"

She originally wanted to discuss it with him, but now she was completely informed and left after saying that.

Cecelia thought that William would stop her, but he didn't say anything when she rushed to the door.

Did he agree?

"He agreed so easily?"

Well, after she left, she should continue to look at the thing that could not be seen by her.

Hmph, did he agree?

"Then don't regret it!"

Cecelia decided to sleep with Grace from now on, ignoring that old bitch.

However, when the door closed, Cecelia did not leave. Instead, she leaned against the door and pricked up her ears to listen to what he was doing in the study.

However, the sound insulation effect of this house was so good that she could not hear a single sound. Cecelia calculated the time and pushed the door open to enter. Then, she saw the item William had not allowed her to look at earlier.
