As soon as Mrs. Evans saw Mr. Nick Knight bringing someone in, she instantly collapsed onto the
chair.
She had clearly heard from an acquaintance in the JC Bureau that Nick was leaving Frant City, why
hadn’t he left yet?
With Master Knight here, I’m afraid today would be difficult.
The bodyguards from the Evans family quickly lost their spirit after the group of JCs with electric batons
rushed in.
Jade also sat on the ground with a broken heart.
However, as Nick came in, his eyes were fixed on Grace.
He walked over to Grace and sat beside her, upright and straight.
Grace subconsciously frowned, but quickly retracted the unidentified emotion in his eyes and looked at
the Evans family.
“Jade, I don’t want to waste time with nonsense. In short, the crimes committed by you and the Evans
family will be judged by the JC Bureau. The money you owe me will be returned with interest. If the
funds are not enough, then sell the real estate and mortgage Evans Group.”
The Evans family was unwilling, but under Nick’s pressure, they all remained silent and pretended to
be mute.
Grace stroked the hem of her skirt and looked at Nick beside her with gentle eyes.
“Brother Nick, I’m a little tired. It’s difficult for you to handle the aftermath here. By the way, Jade likes
tearing up papers, so I asked her to tear up all the papers in the hall and bring them back to the police
station. What do you think?”
Nick raised his eyes, his azure blue eyes deep and gentle.
“I’ll follow your suggestion, but****
He paused, then gently held Grace’s hand before continuing. “I’ve helped you so much, but you
suddenly let me go last night. Shouldn’t you compensate me today?”
Grace laughed, her brows and eyes curled, and her voice was crisp. “Of course! To compensate
Brother Nick, when you finish your work, come to the Cloud View Villa tonight. How about I personally
cook to treat you?”
Nick was pleasantly surprised.
Then he thought of the annoying spirit in her villa. “But there are people in your villa that I don’t
want to see.”
“What’s the matter?”
Grace siniled indifferently. “He’s just my servant. Let’s have a few drinks in the evening. I’ll make him
stand by the side and pour you a drink. What do you think?”
Nick saw her indifferent expression, her doting phoenix eyes, and he smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll listen
to you.”
“Then I’ll go back first and wait for Brother Nick tonight.
She pulled her hand out of Nick’s palm and looked at Nineteen. “Stay here and see if Brother Nick
needs any further assistance. Don’t be lazy.”

The
“Yes, Miss.”
After giving her instructions, Grace looked away, turned around, and left the Gulf Villa, leaving the
stage to Nick and the JC Bureau.
It was not until she got into the car that her expression gradually turned cold.
She opened a wet tissue from her bag and wiped her hands clean.
It was still early to settle matters with the Evans family. She first went to Angle Group and focused on
all the recent progress of Tom and Abigail’s shooting.
She was busy until the afternoon, and she returned to the Cloud View Villa two hours early.
When she returned, Edgar was squatting on the ground and mopping the floor.
Since the special medicine in his body had been resolved, it was much easier for him to do household
chores.
Seeing Grace return so early. Edgar felt a little puzzled. “You came back very early today. It’s only mid–
afternoon. Do you want to have dinner so soon?”
Grace nodded lightly and stood at the door without moving.
Edgar instinctively put down his work, washed his hands, and walked over to help her take out her
slippers from the shoe cabinet.
He assisted her in taking off her coat and hung it on the coat rack.
Having completed these tasks, he returned to mop the floor.
Grace didn’t go upstairs but sat on the sofa, quietly watching him clean.
After observing for a few minutes, she said, “Leave what you’re doing and come here.”
“Alright.”
Edgar washed his hands once again and then approached her, squatting down slowly.
Grace was pleased with his usual obedience.
She grasped his chin and studied his expression.
Without the influence of the special medicine, his face was no longer as pale as before, and his black
eyes were even more radiant.
Although his facial features remained handsome, they had gained a sharper edge, making him less
susceptible to being bullied.
Grace playfully smiled. “I still prefer your appearance when you were under the effects of the special
medicine. Now you seem harder to handle, but also harder to manipulate. Or““”
She paused for a moment, and a mischievous smirk appeared on her lips. “Would you like me to
administer another dose of the special medicine so that I can continue tormenting you for a few more
days? And when I grow tired of it, I’ll assist you?”
Edgar’s Ireathing hitched, and his black eyes were slightly startled.
Does this request sound humane?
When he was injected with the special medicine, the pain was excruciating. Additionally, due to his
back injury, the pain was intensified multiple times over.
The pain could even be fatal.
His lips felt bitter. “If your happiness relies on my suffering, as long as it’s your wish, as long as you
belleve in my sincerity, I will unconditionally obey.”
Chapter 161
“Is that so?”
Grace lifted his chin a little higher, forcing him to meet her gaze.
Edgar gazed into her starry eyes and nodded resolutely.
Witnessing his sincerity. Grace chuckled and released her hold on his chin.
Edgar narrowed his eyes but remained silent.
As soon as the playful moment ended, Grace adopted a serious expression and shifted the
conversation to a different topic. “Your men don’t seem weak, especially that one. If they were to
confront equally trained military elites, what would be their chances of winning?”
“If it’s a fair fight, it’s hard to say, but with their strength, the battle might take longer, and the odds of
losing wouldn’t be high.”
Grace murmured, “1 see,” and lowered her head in contemplation.
Curious, Edgar inquired, “Why do you suddenly ask this?”
Grace responded, “Tonight, Nick will come to the villa for dinner.”
Edgar didn’t say anything, but his frown deepened, and his eyes instantly dimmed.
Noticing his reaction, Grace leaned closer to his car and whispered a few words.
Night fell.
As
per the agreed–upon approximate time, Grace stood at the entrance of the Cloud View Villa, waiting for
Nick.
Nick arrived in a military van with only two of his closest men accompanying him.
As soon as he stepped out of the car, he looked up and saw Grace waiting for him, still adorned in
delicate makeup. She had even come out to greet him, and his happiness couldn’t be contained.
“Sister Grace, you look stunning tonight. We only met during the day, but it feels like it’s been more
than half a month. I actually miss you,” Nick expressed with a smile.
Grace rolled her eyes playfully, “Oh, so now you’re learning to be smooth–tongued too?”
She continued, “You must have had a long day. How did things go with the Evans family?”
“The Evans Group has filed for bankruptcy, I made sure they would repay all the ill–gotten money they
accumulated. However, the amount is substantial, so it will take some time. As for Jade, she has been
sentenced to life. It would be best if she suffers until her last breath,” Nick replied, his tone filled with
satisfaction
Grace simply laughed, choosing not to say anything in response. Side by side, they walked through the
garden towards the living room of the villa.
As they entered the living room, Nick leaned close to Grace’s ear and whispered, “Originally, Edgar
wanted to join us tonight, but I didn’t bring him along. I wanted it to be just the two of us without any
interruptions”
His voice trailed off abruptly when he noticed Edgar standing in the stairwell, his cold gaze fixed upon
him.
Nick’s expression turned sour, mirroring Edgar’s displeasure. The eyes of the two men locked from a
distance, and in that instant, sparks seemed to fly, filling the air with tension.
