Grace Fainted In Her Office
After arriving at Lotus Waterfront, Amanda opened the door and saw her son sitting on the couch while
watching television. Upon her return, he ran over to her and yelled, “Mommy!” Hugging her cute son,
she let out a genuine smile. “Aiden, were you a good boy at Mr. Helean’s house last night?” “Of
course!” She caressed his tiny face and praised, “Good boy, Aiden. I’ll prepare your milk.” “Mommy, did
I do a great job just now?” His face filled with pride as though he had done a brilliant job. Recalling her
son’s quick reaction at Nycinth, Amanda gave him a thumbs up. But… Where did the little brat learn to
curse like that? Thus, she put on a stern face and questioned, “Aiden Bailey, when did you learn to
curse? And who taught you to say that?” “Uh… Mommy, let’s not dwell on this matter, alright?” The kid
began to avoid her gaze and pretended to be focused on the television. She cupped her son’s chubby
little face and lectured, “Don’t ever curse again, understand? It’s not polite, and I don’t like that.”
“Alright…” Aiden observed his mother’s expression and asked, “Mommy, about the man we
encountered just now, did he bully you?” The man? Is he talking about Elias? She laughed. “Why would
you say that?” “I think that man’s a bad guy, so you should leave him alone.” His puppy eyes were filled
with seriousness. Hearing that, Amanda could not take it anymore and burst out laughing. Is this what
he thinks of his biological father? “Alright, I’ll stay away from him, and you should too. Turn around and
walk away whenever you see him, alright?” He nodded in agreement. “Okay. Then, you should get
closer to Mr. Simon.” Simon Nicholson… This little brat loves Simon so much that he wants him as his
daddy. Feeling helpless, she changed the topic. “I’ll prepare your milk, and you should go to bed after
drinking it. Stop watching the TV. It’s bad for your eyes.” … At the same time, Grace had returned
home, and the first thing she did was search for the recording earlier, desperately wanting to know what
Elias and Amanda had talked about. Then, she hit play and listened to the entire recording. Once the
recording ended, her expression was as dark as soot. Just like she thought, those two secretly kept
contact with each other, and Elias even brought Amanda to visit Howard! What does that mean? Old
Mr. Winters hates me and still refuses to acknowledge my existence after four years. He insists that he
only accepts Amanda as his granddaughter-in-law. Now that she’s back, will my chances of marrying
Elias become even slimmer? Old Mr. Winters will certainly try to get them back together! No way! That
can’t happen! She bit her lip in dissatisfaction, vowing to win Elias’ heart and become the Young
Mistress of the Winters Family! … Early the next morning at Justice & Associates, it was Amanda’s first
day at work since her return. Just as she was about to enter her office, a secretary approached her and
informed her, “Miss Bailey, Miss Murphy said she had made an appointment with you and is now
waiting for you in your office.” “Miss Murphy?” Amanda was confused. She had just returned to the
country, and the only case she had on hand was Winters Enterprise’s case, so where did this Miss
Murphy come from? “Okay, thank you. I’ll go check her out.” When Amanda entered her office, she saw
a woman in sunglasses sitting on the couch. “Excuse me, but you are…” The woman removed her
sunglasses and raised her head, revealing a heavily made-up face. Grace. Amanda’s expression
instantly turned cold. “Why are you here? Are you looking for trouble?” “Why did you leave last night? I
had so much I wanted to talk to you about.” With a fake smile, Grace looked pure and innocent. Sitting
on the opposite couch, Amanda put on a serious attitude. “Miss Murphy, is there anything I can help
you with? Since it’s office hours, we’ll only talk about work.” Without Elias, Grace could not care less to
put on her harmless front. She took out a card and placed it on the coffee table. “Amanda, I don’t know
why you returned, but if you’re here for money, I can give you however much you want as long as you
stay away from Elias.” “How much is in here?” Pfft. Grace thought she had successfully tempted
Amanda. “1.5 million.” “Do you think you can get rid of me with only 1.5 million? Is Elias only worth this
much to you? You must know that the Winters Family is extremely wealthy.” Amanda’s tone was
overflowed with mockery. Widening her eyes in shock, Grace did not expect Amanda would say such a
thing. “Elias doesn’t love you. Otherwise, why would he divorce you? The Winters Family’s riches have
nothing to do with you, so you’d better not be too greedy! 1.5 million is a lot!” Amanda chuckled. “If
that’s how it is, why are you so afraid?” “Am I?” Grace’s guilty conscience was unconcealable as she
feared Elias would remarry Amanda. “What’s with this money, then? Are you afraid we’d get back
together?” By then, Grace was so pissed that her nails dug into her palms. She sternly demanded, “I
don’t want to see you pester Elias and affect our relationship! I hope you can disappear from his world!”
“I hope the two of you can disappear from my world even more. If there’s nothing else, please leave.
I’m busy.” The fake b*tch had consumed all of Amanda’s patience, prompting her to stride toward her
desk. Meanwhile, Grace shot up from her seat in a fury. “What you’re saying is that you’ll continue to
bother Elias and use Old Mr. Winters’ fondness for you to get back with him?” I give up. Why does
Grace keep thinking that I’m clinging to Elias? “So what if I am? If I win his heart, I can still get the
extremely wealthy Winters Family. Why would I be interested in that 1.5 million you’re offering? Take
your card and scram! Elias can pamper you all he wants, but I have no obligation to spoil you!” Then,
Amanda sat down and was prepared to look through her documents when Grace suddenly seemed out
of breath. She clutched her chest and stammered while pointing at Amanda, “You… You…” The next
moment, she fell to the ground with a loud thump and fell unconscious. When Amanda saw that scene,
she was dumbfounded. The hell? Is she for real? A few seconds later, she went over and called out to
Grace, “Miss Murphy?” Her visage was pale as a sheet, and her body lay still on the ground like a rock.
OK. She’s out. Flustered, Amanda hurriedly took out her phone and dialed 911 before contacting Elias.
Surprisingly, he was still using the same number from four years ago. The call went through after a few
rings. “Who is this?” The man’s deep and cold voice came from the phone. “It’s me. Grace fainted
inside my office. I’m sending her to the hospital now, so you should hurry up and meet me there.” She
was at a loss for words. What on earth is happening right now? As expected, the angry man started
questioning her, “Why would she faint inside your office? And why are you two together?” “Let’s talk
about this at the hospital.” Amanda hung up the call because this was not something she could explain
over the phone.
