Chapter 81
Yancey felt like he was frozen in place. The most powerful person in the entire Henderson family was Ethan
But thankfully, even late didn’t allow Ethan to be too perfect. The fact that his legs were crippled allowed everyone else to breathe a sigh of reliet.
Ever since they were young, everyone in the family had been living under Ethan’s shadow.
They were all of a
milar age, so why was Ethan just better at everything? Why did everyone feel like they were of a lower status than Tahun?
Lily was right. If Grace was already acting this arrogantly now, then wouldn’t he be completely embarrassed by her after she married into the family?
Yancey couldn’t allow Ethan to use that against him. At the very least, he should fix Grace’s attitude Gir
He looked up and noticed that Grace was already gone.
Beside him, Alice was practically beaming with joy. Hendricks was not a good person. Even back in school, Hendricks had gotten some female classmates pregnant. How could be possibly behave himself when he was in the same room as Grace!
Grace was about to be ruined.
It served her right,
Alice was trembling with excitement. It Yancey and Lily weren’t nearby, she would have rushed upstairs to eavesdrop. She needed to confirm that Grace had been defiled before the wo dare to spread the news everywhere. She would make sure that bitch’s reputation was completely destroyed
Upstairs, Grace didn’t bother calling for help when she was dragged into the room. She knew that no one would save her
The moment the bodyguards shoved her inside, Hendricks immediately locked the door behind her.
There was a wicked grin on his face. “Grace, I bet you didn’t expect this. Yancey actually stood and watched as another man took you away. It really serves you right. I told you not to be suc suck–up.

He missed her, but it only caused him to feel like she was playing hard to get. “You should stop struggling. Didn’t you hear my sister? It’s not too had to become her sister–in–law. Hurry and strip”
Grace was slowly inching toward the window. She had nowhere else to escape. She glanced at a nearby vase, but after she trashed one on Hendricks last time, he was already on guard
Hendricks lunged over. “Grace, if I don’t sleep with you tonight, then can’t call myself a man!”
But before he could reach her, Grace repped onto the windmill. They were on the third floor, so it would be no small matter if she jumped. “Deare, you…” But before Hendricks could finish, Grace shot him a cold look and jump
There was a thick hedge below. The branches scratched her face, and she twisted her ankle on impact.

her way toward a side path. She heard Hendricks shout, “Lily! She ran! Get people to go after her now!”
Grace was right. After what she did to Lily, there was no way Lily would let her off. The bodyguards were quickly mobilized and headed toward her.
She scrambled up a tree and dimbed over the wall before she jumped to the other side.
She was already outside the Lambert residence, but her ankle was swollen beyond recognition and her face was covered in scratches. She heard footsteps from behind her, and she th
Hendricks had already mattered at her hands before, so there was no way he would let her off easily.
Lily adored her bellier, and Yanery was completely spineless. As for Alice, Grace would be lucky if Alice didn’t personally drug her.
Grace’s fourhead was full of sweat. After that jump, her ankle had become even more swollen.
The moment the walked out from under the tree, she heard the honk of a car in the distance.
When she saw the familiar license plate, her eyes lit up. There was a surge of all as the tendon rased in her body, but the pain in her ankle intensified
