Chapter 44

Grace tried to fight back her emotions when she thought of Brian's threats.

She took a deep breath and responded, "I'm not seeing anyone. Dr. Vance and I have a strictly doctor-patient relationship. Cutting him off won't be a problem for him."

Brian knew Grace was lying. He wanted to do her well to make her remember who was her man.

However, an unfamiliar and complex emotion welled up within him when he saw Grace's pale face.

In the end, Brian slammed the door and left without doing anything.

Grace fell on the bed. Tears ran down her face, wetting the sheet.

She wondered, "Why can't Brian engage in a simple and pleasant conversation with me?

1 know myself well. I want badly to spend some time with Brian and create some memories that only belong to us.

"Still, considering Brian's heartlessness and our inevitable parting in two months, everything seems meaningless.

Besides, what if he forces me to have S*x with him if I go on the business trip with him? Thinking about the consequences gives me goosebumps. 'The best solution is to stay here.

I know Ava will definitely bully me, but it's better than losing my baby!

The following day, Grace woke up to replace Brian had already departed.

Grace planned to go to the hospital to change her wound dressing. However, just as she approached the gate, she found Justin's car was parked there. Grace's heart sank, and she turned around to return.

Justin spotted Grace at this time. Thus, he got out of his car and pressed the doorbell "Good morning, sir. Who are you looking for?"

vin stood by the door and asked,

Justin replied, "I'm here to see Grace Sherman. I'm her doctor. Could you please open the door for me?"

Melvin noticed that Grace was striding toward the house and sensed things between them must be complicated.

Thus, Melvin asked, "Sir, are you sure? Grace seems not to know you."

Justin had no choice but to shout Grace's name. Afraid other servants might hear, Grace quickly turned and went to Justin.

Grace looked at Justin coldly and said, "Dr. Vance, I appreciate your concerns about me. However, I have made my points clear yesterday. I hope we don't contact each other from now on." Justin gazed at Grace, his heart aching, and asked, "I know you must have reasons for this, don't you?"

Grace answered briefly, "No, I don't."

Justin sighed frustratedly and said, "I know you won't go with me, so I bring you everything you need."

Tears welled up in Grace's eyes when she saw Justin take out the gauze and medicine. She did not want to hurt Justin and

took them over.

Justin looked deeply into Grace's eyes and said, "Then, I'm leaving now."

Grace watched Justin drive away. Then, she turned to Melvin and said, "Melvin, please vouch for me if Brian asks. I didn't

go to see Dr. Vance. Instead, he came here."

Melvin replied with a smile, "Alright. No problem. It looks like Mr. Brian is jealous. That is why he doesn't allow you this gentleman."

Grace laughed when she heard that. She thought, "Well. I don't think Brian is jealous.

'Brian will always stand on pride. So, he is worried that I will cheat on him for another man instead of being jealous. However, everything is just his imagination.'

As Grace entered the living room, Ava glanced at her and jeered, "Well, well, well. Look at you. You're quite the lucky woman, aren't you? A handsome doctor comes here to deliver medicine for you, and you don't even invite him in?"

Grace ignored Ava and went straight to her room, planning to change her wound dressing.

Ava screamed, "Stop! I'm talking to you! Can't you hear me?" She was more arrogant than ever. After all, Brian was not here, and no one would control her.

Grace replied, "Miss Adkins, what did you expect me to say? He is a doctor, and I'm just a maid here. Who am I to allow a stranger into the Francis family's house?"
