Eder was satisfied with this statement. “Well said. I’ll give you a raise when we get back.”

“Ahaha, thank you, Boss! You and Miss Grace are simply a match made in heaven…”

Adrain watched the two figures move further away, his eyes reddening with anger. He slammed his fist into the ground.

Upon returning to Golden Castle Residences, Eder immediately turned serious and instructed Eric, “Continue pressuring the Grammer Family. Within three days, push them into bankruptcy and confiscate their properties. I want the Grammer family to never rise again!”

“Understood.”

He continued, “Sarah Grammer has committed many wrongdoings in the past, and the Grammer Family helped her cover them up. Put a hefty reward on the dark web to dig up evidence against her.

Help Grace send Sarah to prison!”

With the current state of the Grammer Family, there would definitely be many people eager to kick, them while they were down. After years of accumulating resentment, these people wouldn’t miss such an ideal opportunity to strike.

“Boss, rest assured, it will be handled!”

After handling the most crucial matters, Eder glanced at the sky outside. Winter had arrived, and the sky had darkened unusually early due to the persistent drizzle. By this time, it was pitch black outside.

Eder’s eyelids drooped, making her feel desolate inside.

Lately, whenever Grace stepped out, she was absent the entire day without calling in between. He glanced at the time, and it was past 7 o’clock.

Grace returned home late again. He slumped on the sofa, feeling as if his spirit had been drained, and nothing was moving smoothly.

Eric looked at his listless appearance and sighed. “Ross, missing Miss Grace again?”

Eder ignored him, his gaze filled with melancholy as he looked out at the tranquil Garden Road.

Grace’s car was parked on the corner, about 200 meters from the Grant Family’s residence entrance.

Her face was dark, and she exuded a frigid aura while she listened to Eleven’s report.

“I’m sorry, Miss. After he discovered our people, he made a few detours and shaken them off. We couldn’t keep up.”

Grace’s expression grew even darker.

Eleven lowered his head even further, feeling dejected. “I’m really sorry..

“Forget it. After all, he was trained in an elite military unit, and his abilities are outstanding. He’s also very clever. It was too easy for him to shake you off.”

She looked at the unfamiliar number left by Nick on the scrap paper and silently recited it in her mind.

“How did the investigation into this number turn out?TM

“The serial number is indeed from China. Although it’s not registered under a real name, our team traced the current location of the number to a transcontinental country in Europe and Africa.”

Europe and Africa?

Grace narrowed her eyes, pondering carefully. She remembered that Nick’s mother was from a

transcontinental country in Europe and Africa. However, during her childhood, she never heard Nick mention his mother or talk about his mother’s country.

Other than his deep blue mixed blood eyes, he seemed like a typical Chinese person. Could it be…

that he had some secret connection to that place?

Could there be some hidden secrets in all of this?

“Look into this; investigate Nick’s mother. I want detailed information. Also, check the flights from all transcontinental countries in Europe and Africa to China in the past six months. See if suspicious individuals entered the country. Provide me with a list when you have it.”

Eleven hesitated. “Miss, the data for flights in the past six months is extensive, and there are many people. It would be time-consuming. Even if Mr. Colin personally handled the data, it would be difficult to find.”

“It’s alright, take your time. I’m not in a hurry with the results of this particular task.”

Her phone rang. She glanced at it and saw Eder calling. Unknowingly, it was already past 8 o’clock, and a certain man must have been waiting for a long time.

Thinking of him, a touch of sweetness filled Grace’s heart. She silenced her phone, not answering it, and told Twelve, who was in the driver’s seat, “Turn around, go to the nearby Mia Grand Hotel, and then return to the Grant Family residence.”

In the living room, Eder had been waiting so anxiously that his heart almost turned cold when he heard the sound of the door lock turning.

He rushed to the door.

In the instant he saw Grace, he pounced on her, wrapping his arms tightly around her waist, his arms trembling.

Oh, the torment of this day. If it continued like this, he would turn into a statue of a waiting husband.

Caught off guard by his embrace, Grace took a step back before steadying herself.

Worried that he might make a sudden movement and spill the soup she was holding, she quickly raised her arm, keeping the soup away from him.

She spoke softly, coaxing him. “Today is the beginning of winter, and according to tradition, we should eat dumplings. But I got off work too late, so I probably won’t have time to make them myself. I went to a nearby restaurant to buy ready-made ones, which caused a slight delay.”

Eder buried his face in her neck, inhaling the pleasant fragrance from her body. His voice was low and muffled. “I don’t need to cat dumplings… I just want you!”

Grace sighed quietly. She had intended to pat the back of his head to comfort him, but then she realized both her hands were holding the bag of dumplings.

Helplessly, she could only console him with her words. “Alright, are you hungry? Let’s go in and eat.

Once I get through this busy period, I’ll be with you every day, okay?”

“And how long will this busy period last?”

“Probably just a few more days.”

Eder’s displeasure was written all over his face. “What’s happened with Angle recently? How can you still be busy for a few more days?”

Grace was taken aback and thought for a moment before answering, “I recently recruited a group of new artists and I’m training them. Since they are all newcomers, I have to personally handle their training to ensure they are up to standard. Also… I’m planning some upcoming collaborations, so 1

am indeed quite busy.”

Eder felt uncomfortable all over, burying his face in her shoulder, Grace had a strong drive for her career, and he had known that for a while.

But… he was on the verge of death. In these final moments, couldn’t she spend a little more time with him? But he would never voice these complaints tinged with personal emotions. He supported any decision or choice she made. Even if she said she wanted to leave him now, he wouldn’t stop her.

Grace was lost in thought, thinking about Nick’s affairs.

It wasn’t until she felt a soreness in her lower back in this position that she snapped out of it. “Darling, let’s go and cat dumplings.’

During the meal, both had their own thoughts.

After dinner, according to their usual routine, Grace went to his bedroom to accompany him for a few hours until it was time for him to sleep, then she would return to her own room.

Just as she sat down on Eder’s bed, Grace suddenly remembered something amiss today-Eric hadn’t come up to remind Eder to take his medicine.

“Did you take your medicine tonight?’

Ider’s face stiffened, feeling a little guilty. “No, I didn’t.”

Those medicines were of little use and tasted bitter. He simply didn’t want to take them.

“Wait, I’ll go prepare them for you.”

Grace got up quickly and returned upstairs with warm water and the pill box.

Eder looked up at her, his tone weak. “You came back so late tonight. Is there any medication service.

to reward me for anxiously waiting?”

“Alright, I’ll feed you.”

She sat down, affectionately rubbed his head, skillfully poured water, kissed him, and transferred the water to his mouth, putting two pills in all at once.

Her actions were incredibly smooth. However, it didn’t escape the eyes of a certain someone.

After Eder swallowed the pills, he immediately frowned. “You’re slacking off. You feed me one pill at

a time!”

Grace had been busy all day and hadn’t had any rest. She had originally wanted to save herself from some trouble.

She complained, “We kiss all the time. If I had to feed you one pill at a time, it would be more than ten kisses. Aren’t you tired of it?”

Eder’s face instantly turned pale. “Are you… tired of kissing me?”

Grace noticed his change in mood. Patients tended to be more suspicious and overthink things. She needed to play along.

She immediately kissed him on the lips twice. “How could that be? You’re so delicious. I’ll never get tired of kissing you. Come on, let’s continue!”

Just as she was about to kiss him again, her phone suddenly rang on the bedside table. Grace glanced at it. It was an unknown number with no caller ID.

But when she silently recited the number in her mind, her gaze instantly turned cold.

Why did Nick suddenly call her at this time?

Eder turned around and took a look. “Who is it calling so late?”
