O Chapter10 Chapter10 Grace ? Grace ! Grace broke out of her trance and looked at Antonio .
She must have stood outside the study for too long , and it annoyed Antonio .
This man had smiled so gently at Keyla earlier in the morning , but why did he look so detached when facing her ? Grace realized there was nothing she could do to change his commitment to his first love .
Huh , what is it ? Your phone is ringing .
Only then did Grace feel the vibration in her hand .

She glanced at the screen , and it was a call from the hospital.
Antonio watched her retreating figure as she stepped onto the balcony , a thoughtful look in his eyes .
Today , Grace seemed different .
Hello ? Ms.
Parrish , the surgery you scheduled can take place tomorrow .
Grace unconsciously placed her hand over her belly .
This tiny life had been part of her for five weeks , but tomorrow , they would separate .
Though reluctant , she knew that if she wanted to leave everything about Antonio behind , she couldnt keep the baby .
Can the surgery be done under general anesthesia ? Im a little afraid of the pain .
||| < Chapter10 18 Pers Grace tried to sound casual , but the heartache was impossible to suppress .
She had once longed for a child , one who would resemble Antonio or herself .
It can , but well need your family to sign the consent form .
Grace froze .
She was all alone .
Her parents had divorced long ago , and her grandmother , who raised her , had passed away four years ago .
There was no one left in this world she could call family .
Im an orphan .
I have no family .
The other end of the line was silent for a few seconds before simply confirming the appointment for tomorrow .
Grace hung up and turned around , only to meet Antonios sharp gaze .
What surgery requires general anesthesia ? Whos getting surgery ? Grace averted her gaze .
She rarely lied to Antonio , but now she had to hide the truth that she was going to abort their child .
How could she even begin to explain ? One of my colleagues is having surgery tomorrow .
I have to be there for her , she said as calmly as she could before hastily walking away .
Antonio instinctively reached out to stop her but missed her arm .
A strange emptiness settled in his heart .
He pressed a hand to his chest , confused .
He wasnt supposed to care about Grace , so why did seeing her avoid him make him uneasy ? Grace , I dont get this question .
23.03 % C C O ||| Chapter10 It was Laney Kaufman , Antonios younger sister .
When their mother passed away , Laney had just started high school .
To ease Antonios burden , Grace had taken a teaching job at Laneys school , accompanying her to and from school for the past three years .
Steadying herself , Grace walked up to Laney .
What is the question ? Laney didnt respond .
Instead , she slid her tablet toward Grace , displaying an Instagram account with a note reading , New sister in law .
Grace frowned in confusion , but then she saw the profile picture of Keyla .
Her heart sank .
So even Laney knew Antonio was going to leave her and get back together with Keyla .
Laney smirked , satisfied with the reaction she received .
Keyla is back .
She and my brother are getting married soon .
If you have any self respect , you should leave my brother now .
Grace forced a bitter smile .
No matter how much she had given to this family , she was still an outsider .
Stumbling into the bathroom , she shut the door and stared at her own reflection .
How pathetic she was .
No one in this house had ever wanted her .
Her phone buzzed with a message from Laney .
It was a photo of Keyla taking a mirror selfie in her pajamas .
Grace immediately recognized the background .
It was Antonios and her wedding house in the south district .
Grace never liked the interior decor .
She knew Antonio had designed it specificall for Keyla .
Even after Keyla dumped him , he still loved her .
52 40 % D Chapter 10 Back then , for the sake of Laneys schooling , Antonio had bought their current place near the school .
Grace couldnt even remember the last time she had set foot in that other house .
Maybe Antonio had never intended for her to stay there for long from the beginning .
You probably havent followed Keyla on Instagram , right ? Dont worry .
Ill make sure to forward all of her posts to you .
Grace knew Laney had resented her discipline , but she hadnt expected Laney to be so eager for her to leave .
Well , they would all get what they wanted soon enough .
She would be gone , and Keyla would be Antonios new wife .
Grace wouldnt get in the way , and Antonio wouldnt let her even if she wanted to .
