Chapter 8 I Have Something With Him

Grace was somewhat hesitant. She had already submitted her resignation, and she no longer had any obligations to handle matters like this.

Moreover, although Yvonne’s words sounded like a request, her tone made it seem like an order.

She could also use the chance and ask him for her identification card when she sent the coffee over later.

She took a deep breath and said, “Okay.”

“Thanks.” Then, Yvonne walked away.

After getting pregnant, Yvonne’s demeanor had a touch of motherliness. Nevertheless, her confidence as the affluent daughter of a prominent family still contrasted with Grace’s.

Back then, thanks to Grace’s distinguished family, Yvonne had been nowhere on par with her. However, as the years had passed, Grace seemed to have ended up losing her poise and elegance.
