Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 407

Grace got up and ate something. She felt sluggish all over, and all the food tasted like wax.

When she sat down in her office chair, she even let out a yawn, feeling like she wasn't in the right state.

It wasn't until Sebastian adjusted his glasses and sincerely suggested, "Ms. Lambert, maybe you should consider wearing something with a higher neckline."

She had been in a daze the whole morning. She took a sip of her coffee and asked, "Why?"

He remained silent.

During her lunch break, she finally saw the rosy glow on her face and the blotchy marks all over her neck when she looked into the mirror.

Her face went from calm to bright red instantly, and she instinctively pulled up her collar. But she wasn't wearing a turtleneck today, so it couldn't hide anything.

She obviously wasn't fully clear-headed this morning. She had simply washed her face and gone out without noticing these things.

Grace rubbed her temples and quickly ordered a scarf online, asking the seller to deliver it as soon as possible.

In the afternoon, she still had a business meeting with the newly appointed manager, hoping to secure the government project this time.

At 3:00 pm, she wrapped the delivered scarf around her neck and took Sebastian to the negotiation. They had agreed to meet at a luxury hotel, which was suitable for business banquets.

As Grace opened the door to the private room, she stopped in her tracks—Daphne was inside, along with the manager who had just taken office.

Grace had just had an argument with Daphne—if Daphne knew the leader, Grace would definitely lose this project.

Daphne hadn't expected to run into Grace here either. She widened her eyes in an instant, then she leaned into the arms of the person next to her. "Tris, is this the partner you're supposed to meet with?"

When she saw the two chatting so happily, Daphne grabbed Tristan's arm in frustration. "Tris, you really shouldn't be doing business with her. Haven't you heard about her reputation?

"She has even gotten on the bad side of Mr. Henderson this time. Who knows how much longer Lambert Group can last?"

Every company that had offended Ethan had ended up being taken over.

Grace had even sat on Ethan's lap and kissed him forcefully in front of everyone the night before. It was completely outrageous and shameless.

Ethan may seem indifferent, but he acted ruthlessly.

Tristan's hand, which was holding the glass, stopped mid-air—it seemed he was truly conflicted over the matter.
