Chapter 293
Frederick said that he had found Grace by the roadside. That was why Grace thought her parents had abandoned her However, it seemed that the story was not that simple.
No matter who this sender was, Grace had to meet him.
She hurriedly replied, [Tell me the location]
The sender gave her an address. Grace opened the map and searched on her phone. It was a restaurant in the west of the city.
It's a restaurant. There shouldn't be any danger as people keep coming and going Grace thought.
The sender had specially instructed her to come alone and not tell anyone.
Grace was a little hesitant. However, aware that the sender was in the dark watching her, she decided not to act rashly and agreed.
The time was 10:30 a.m. the next day, Saturday.
Vivian had no classes to attend on Saturday. Previously, she had wanted to treat Grace to a meal because Grace had helped find her a new place. However, it was not convenient for Grace to go out with her child, so Vivian came to her home today with a lot of food and clothes for the child.
For the entire morning, Grace was distracted. When Vivian talked to her, she couldn't stay focused.
When Grace's mind wandered for the fifth time, Vivian could not help but ask, "Grace, are you alright?"
Grace only came back to her senses after Vivian shouted twice.
Her face paled as Grace answered, "I'm... I'm fine."
She glanced at the time on her phone. It was almost ten o'clock.
"Vivian, I'm going out to buy something for Austin. Please help me take care of him with my brother. Grace left in a hurry after saying that.
When Carson had just come out of the bathroom, he saw Vivian alone in the living room. He asked, "Vivian, where's my sister?"
"She said she was going out to buy something for Austin," Vivian replied.
Carson frowned slightly. He thought for a moment and asked, "Did she say where she would go and what she would buy?"
"No." Vivian shook her head.
Carson remembered that Ava had come to look for Grace the day before yesterday. He could not help but worry. After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and sent Grace a message. [Where are you going?] Grace quickly replied, [Buy Austin some diapers and baby formula from the nearby mall.]Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Upon reading the message, Carson was relieved. He told her to be careful and focused on taking care of Austin.
When Grace took a taxi to the restaurant,
it was already 10:25 pm
The light in the restaurant was a little dim as if there was a power outage.
As soon as she entered, she saw a familiar figure.
It was Louise. She was drinking coffee in a booth by the window with a few friends, chatting and laughing.
Grace pretended not to see her and walked further inside. She sat down on the sofa at the far end.
Louise seemed to have seen her and said something to her friends. Then she walked towards Grace. Grace frowned.
In an instant, a thought flashed across Grace's mind. "Could that unknown number be Louise's?'
At the thought of this, Grace looked at her warily.

Louise noticed her expression and suddenly laughed. "Why? Don't you recognize me? Are you waiting for someone here?"
The waiter brought over two cups of coffee. Grace nodded slightly and looked at Louise.
"Miss Adkins, we're not familiar with each other, Grace said.
Louise smiled nonchalantly. "We're not, but there are some things that I think it's better to make clear to you. It doesn't matter if Brian has feelings for you. After all, you're his ex-wife, and you've been staying in Capern City. As Brian's fiancée, I'm indeed a little uncomfortable. Therefore, I hope you can leave Capern City."
"As Brian's fiancée, I'm indeed a little uncomfortable about you being in Capern City. It doesn't matter if Brian has feelings for you. After all, you're his ex-wife. Therefore, I hope you can leave."
