Chapter 174

Chapter 174

She looked around from her memory and asked uncertainly, “Are you… Joan knight?”

When Joan saw that she still remembered her, she happily went forward and took her arm. “Sister Grace, you’re so beautiful. I haven’t seen you for so many years. Do you miss me? The fourth brother said that you’re in Frant city, so I couldn’t wait to come and play with you.

Joan and Nick were half-brothers and sisters. They were the seventh in the knight family. Like her, sh was the youngest daughter. She was three years younger than her. She was a little princess.

She smiled and touched Joan’s nose.

Joan held onto her arm softly and swayed, “Sister Grace is happy to see me. I like her like this. I won’t let others touch her. Come play with me.”

Did she play with her?

Isn’t this a little grandfather who has a lot of things for himself?

Nick also said, “Sister Grace, I only received this urgent matter this morning. This little ancestor came quietly last night. I will leave Frant city tomorrow morning, and I will have to leave her to you to take care of her for me. It’s been a while.”

Grace frowned slightly.

Just as she was about to refuse, Joan put her pillow on her arm and acted like a spoiled child. “Sister Grace, I haven’t seen your place in Frant city yet. Just take me in for half a month. I promise not to cause you any trouble.”

How could it be in half a month? This little ancestor would have driven her crazy by then. “Three days at most.”

“Three days? only three days!” Joan pursed her lips. This is not a big deal was that she would rent a small place to live here.

The clamor of the dance floor could be heard from outside the bar.

The temporary residence was settled..”

to go outside?

Grace thought of the man in the suit she had just met, and doubts arose in her heart.

She subconsciously looked at Nick beside her,

Nick was pouring wine for himself. His profile was delicate and his outlines were clear.

Joan was still acting like a spoiled child, her expression was simple and cute.

If she was hiding something, her eyes wouldn’t be able to pretend.

Seeing that Grace did not answer, Joan emphasized it over and over again, “Isn’t it good! Sister Grace is the best, just accompany me down to play for a while.”

Grace gently tugged at her face,

“Good.”

Bay Villa.

Edgar was preparing dinner in the kitchen.

Chapter 174

Sitting in the living room, Eric used his laptop to research Jonas’s information.

Seth and a few bodyguards were still playing cards in the hackyard, playing with high spirits.

“Boss, come over here.”

With a solemn tone, Edgar came out of the kitchen. He turned the laptop in his hand and showed him the screen.

“Boss, look, I’ve uploaded a screenshot of Jonas under the surveillance of the Fallen Corporation today. I remember his face on the day of the Crane Bay Bridge accident. Miss Grace’s person.”

He paused and continued, “And I can’t find any information about this person on the Internet. He’s probably a black market killer.”

Edgar looked at that face carefully, his expression becoming more and more serious.

It was impossible for Grace to not know this person’s previous identity. She clearly knew that and she was still willing to keep such a dangerous person by her side. What was she doing?

Just as he was thinking. Twelve came back. Hearing something in the backyard, he walked over by the living room window.

Edgar saw him keenly, and quickly opened the door to find that only Twelve had returned to the Bay Villa alone

He had a bad feeling in his heart and asked him in a deep voice, “Where is Grace?”

“Master Fallen, it seems that there was a party at the bar in the world at night. She said that there would not be too many people, so she rushed me back.” When he mentioned this, Twelve was disheartened.

Edgar’s brows furrowed deeper and deeper. When only Twelve returned, doesn’t this mean that she only brought Jonas with her?

Realizing that, he was cold and fierce, and he went straight to the backyard to bring out the few people who were gathering to play cards.

Inside the bar.

The lights on the dance floor were dazzling and psychedelic.

Grace leaned against the pillar gracefully and looked at Joan who was dancing to the music like everyone else on the dance floor.

She hated such a noisy occasion.

So she just watched from the side, clapping her hands to encourage her, signaling that Joan was dancing well.

Occasionally she observe the various people around the dance floor.

Nick was leating on the railing at the entrance of the private room on the second floor. Because of the relatively long distance and all the colored spotlights surrounding the dance floor, Grace could not see his face clearly, only that he seemed to be looking at the situation here.

She retracted her eyes, and Jonas suddenly appeared beside her.

With a serious expression, he approached her and whispered, “The atmosphere here is not right. you have to be careful.”

Grace told him softly, “Yeah,” and said calmly, “Before I entered the private room, did you see that man with a similar portrait you described?”

“I saw him.” Jonas nodded honestly.

Chapter 174

“Is that him?”

the

Jonas thought for a while, then shook his head cautiously, “Although I’m not completely sure, atmosphere at the bar tonight is very delicate. The young lady only brought me. Be extra careful Just as he finished speaking, a handsome man with a blushing face approached Grace,

Grace glanced at him and saw that he was good-looking.

The man was a little shy.

“This lady… I lost the game. They want me to chat with you. Only if you accept my toast can I pass the test. Can you help me?”

Grace looked at him, but did not say anything. Her beautiful eyes smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

The man did not get her affirmative answer, and he was not discouraged. He took the empty glass in Adapted’s hand and poured her a small glass of red wine.

“Miss, can 1?”

Grace did not move or answer.

Beside him. Jonas quietly reminded, “Miss, don’t drink the wine handed over to you by a stranger at

the bar.”

The man shyly lowered his head and continued, “I saw you from the crowd just now. Your beauty is different from all the girls here. You definitely won’t refuse to help me pass the test, right?”

Jonas was still whispering beside him, “No, don’t pick it up, Miss.”

Under the different attacks of the two men, Grace raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Okay.”

When the man saw her promise, he was very surprised and handed her the red wine in his hand.

Grace was about to pick him up.

Just as their hands touched, a pair of slender palms suddenly intercepted the red wine.

Grace turned her head and saw a cold and deep face, staring at the man who handed her the wine, his eyes were furious.

“She doesn’t even drink my toast, so you deserve it?”
