Chapter 220

Adrain felt the unfairness of the accusation. Faced with Eder’s questioning and the fact that he forcibly sn atched Grace from his arms, he was very unhappy.

“Mr. Grant, are you suspecting me of drugging her? Trust me, even I don’t bother with that kind of cheap tactic. She was just in a bad mood and I was just drinking with her. And she got drunk so I’m bringing her back home.”

He stepped forward to take Grace back, but Eder stepped sideways and held her even tighter.

“No need to trouble yourself, Mr. Grammer. I’ll take care of her.”

Adrain’s expression gradually became serious. “Listening to what you just said, are you implying that you’re also into her?”

“Yes.”

Adrain furrowed his brows,

After Edgar, this Eder also came to obstruct him.

“It’s inappropriate for you to touch her like this. It would cause a misunderstanding. Moreover, Grace just returned to the city so she’s not familiar with you. Meanwhile, I have been in a relationship with her since we were young. It’s better for her to be left with me.”

He was about to step forward again, but Eric stopped in front of him. “Mr. Grammer, kindly leave some respect for yourself. Ms. Smith and Mr. Grant are already engaged. It is reasonable for him to take care of her.”

“You’re engaged?”

When did this happen? Why didn’t he hear anything about it?

Eric saw his doubts. “Mr. Grant and the Smith family had already agreed and arranged everything. The news will be made public soon. So please understand who the outsider here is.”

Adrain’s face turned pale. He did not expect the Grant family to act so fast, and that Mr. Smith would immediately agree!

Since Eder was Grace’s fiance, and he was just a friend, he finally accepted that he did not have the upper hand.

When Adrain finally stopped blocking him, Eder picked up Grace and turned around to leave. Grace stirred when she felt the strain of leaning flat into the broad chest. She moved slightly and suddenly caught the familiar scent of tobacco. She almost subconsciously wrapped her hands around his neck.

“Don’t go. You just said that you won’t leave me…”

Adrain also heard it and smiled triumphantly. “Mr. Grant, it seemed that she wants to go with me.”

Eder’s body was stiff. He looked down at Grace who was unconscious but still managed to plaster an expression of being wronged.

This morning, she said that she liked someone. Could it be Adrain?

She even came here with Adrain alone to drink.

She had always had a good tolerance and was highly vigilant even when under the influence of alcohol. But this time, she lowered her guard and got this drunk. It seemed that she was really serious about him.

But why did it have to be Adrain?

Chapter 226

Eder endured the tightness in his chest and concealed the pain in his eyes. “Eric, please escort Mr.

Grammer out.”

Eric stepped forward.

However, Adrain wouldn’t budge. “Mr. Grammer, a forcefully harvested melon is not sweet. You should respect Grace’s choice and let me handle her.”

Eder glared at him coldly. “She’s my fiancee. My choices for her matter more than yours!’

After saying these words gloomily, Eder stabilized his hold on Grace and left.

“Mr. Grant, how long have you known her even? She won’t like you! Don’t you dare do something she won’t like or you’ll be at your own risk when she wakes up!”

Adrain was genuinely worried and was still shouting from behind.

Eder chose to ignore it and carried Grace all the way to the hotel next door.

As soon as they arrived at the hotel entrance, they ra

As soon as they arrived at the hotel entrance, they ran into Fifteen and Seventeen who had finished booking for accommodations and were anxious to go back to the bar.

The first thing they noticed was Eric, and then Eder who was wearing a mask. They didn’t know each other, but it was hard not to notice Grace in his an ns,

“Why is Ms. Grace in your arms? Where’s Mr. Grammer?”

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Eric quickly stepped forward to explain. “This is Mr. Grant and my new boss. Ms. Grace is too drunk. Mr. Grant was just about to book a room for her.”

“But she won’t like this when she wakes up…”

Eric: “No, but their marriage was decided by their parents. Sooner or later, they will get married. Ms.

Grace is drunk. Is there anyone who is more suitable to take care of her than Mr. Grant? You two?

Me?”

Fifteen and Seventeen glanced at each other speechlessly.

Eric’s sharp eyes noticed the room card in Fifteen’s hand. While the two bodyguards struggled with a decision, Eric immediately sn atched the card and entered the hotel with Eder.

Fifteen and Seventeen quickly followed and stood guard at the door of the room.

Eric came out of the room and patted the two of them on the shoulders. “I haven’t seen you guys for months. Why don’t we grab a drink tonight?”

Fifteen was embarrassed, “That won’t be a good idea. She’s sleeping in a hotel so we have to stand guard.”

Seventeen nodded.

“What’s wrong with that? Mr. Grant is with her so he’ll look after her. Let’s walk around instead. Why don’t you find a place to drink and hang out?”

“Eh, but…”

The two of them very “reluctantly” followed Erie out,

In the hotel room.

Eder carried Grace to the bed, took off her coat and high heels, then placed the quilt over her.

Afterward, he went to the bathroom to fetch a basin of warm water before returning and carefully wiping her face.

He moved very lightly, afraid of waking her up.

The Milleaire and His Millionaire Irwin

The lamp on the bedside table was dim, adding to the ambiance of the room.

Eder’s eyes followed the towel as it wandered over her delicate facial features as if to etch her face into his mind.

Even if he could only watch her sleep quietly like this, he would be satisfied.

This face was the very person he had wanted to cherish so badly.

‘However, she likes Adrain now”

It had only been half a year, and she seemed to have completely forgotten about him.

No, she didn’t completely forget. As her ex-husband, she probably thought about him with blame.

Thinking about the possibility, Eder felt as if a sharp knife had been plunged into his heart. It was painful to even breathe.

With red eyes, he sat on the head of the bed and quietly watched Grace’s sleeping figure.

Since she was asleep, the usual cold lines on her face softened. Her full rosy lips were slightly open too, as if inviting him.

Eder thought to himself, Can I steal a kiss?’

Anyway, she wouldn’t remember when she woke up.

“But would it also be unfair for her?

Despite the conflict in his heart, he leaned over, closer, and closer…

Grace really was drunk. This had to be the worst drink she had ever had since the last time when her stomach hurt.

Her eyelashes twitched, and she opened her eyes in a trance. Before her vision could even clear up, there was already a terrifying face that was very close to her face.

Her hand reacted instinctively, and she slapped that ugly monster.

“What kind of monster dares to come at me?!”

“Ow…”

There was a sudden cry of pain.

Eder did not expect that she would suddenly wake up and throw her fist. The bridge of his nose just under the mask was almost crushed by the heavy blow.

He wanted to rub the bridge of his nose to see if his nose was bleeding, but Grace was already awake.

He did not dare to take off his mask, so he could only forcefully swallow the pain.

Yet although Grace was awake, she was still very much under the influence of the wine.

Her vision was dim and her head was spinning.

The ugly face of that monster was still spinning before her eyes, like the hands of a clock.

She propped herself on the bed, and as soon as she managed to sit up, she began scooting away.

“You ugly bas ta rd! Stay away from me!”

Eder was helpless.

Noticing that she was still not sober, he cleared his throat and said h oars ely, “Ms. Smith, it’s me, Eder.”

Ider?

Grace recited the name in her mind.

In the past few days, it was this name that she had heard the most.

I really hate that name!’

Under the influence of the wine, she didn’t hold back from acting according to her feelings and dove towards the bedside table for any weapon. She cursed fiercely:

“You ba stard! You still want to marry me! I’ll send you to hell first!”
