Chapter 426

Then, she walked past Everett.She would no longer ask him what he wanted to do as before.

All she had to do was be herself and do what she wanted to do.

No matter what he did, she would not be afraid anymore.

The elevator door opened with a ding.

Olivia walked in and pressed the close button and the floor button.

The elevator door closed.

The moment the elevator doors closed, the sensor lights in the corridor went out.

In an instant, the surroundings were swallowed by darkness.

So was Everett who was standing there.

Grace had returned home, but she did not eat snacks and played with her dog as usual, but went back
to her room.

Jason looked at the person walking past him and then at the closed door, shaking his head
helplessly.She was still angry with him.

Grace returned to her room and sat on the sofa, motionless.

Seeing her text, Ann curled her lips.

‘Help’? Grace really thought she was going to help.

"What's wrong?"



Michael kissed her on the forehead and asked.

Ann smiled.

"It's okay.I'm going to call that fool.Don't say anything."

Michael knew who was the fool Ann was talking about and made an OK gesture.

Ann had told him how she went back to AK and how she stole Olivia's design.

He knew it all.

Grace was in the shower and didn't hear her phone ring, but Ann was patient and kept calling her.

Until Grace heard the ring.

Grace immediately came over to pick it up.

When she saw the name on the screen, Grace pursed her lips and her face turned cold.

"Hello.”

"Grace, why won't you take me to AK anymore? Is it because of what happened last night? Grace,
listen to me.I didn't do it on purpose.I won't make such a mistake again.Believe me!"

Ann's voice sounded very excited.

Grace clenched her phone and reminded herself of not being sympathetic to her again.

It was because she was soft-hearted that she made mistakes again and again and caused trouble for
Olivia.She wouldn't be like this.

"Ann, I'm sorry.I can't trust you anymore.You can do whatever you want.I won't ask you again"



She would not meddle in her actions.

Grace was about to to hang up.But Ann's voice came.

"Did Olivia blame you?"

But now her voice did not fluctuate at all and was very calm.

Unusually calm.

Grace frowned.

"You don't..."

Before she could finish, Ann interrupted.

"She must be blaming you.That's how she is.If you do a good job, she will be good to you.If you don't,
she will be bad to you, just like to me."

Grace frowned.

"What are you talking about?"

She felt Ann's words strange.

"Grace, do you know why I quit?"

"Because after I did something wrong, she scolded me and then deliberately arranged for me to do
tough work.I couldn't stand it, so I resigned"

Grace finally understood what she was talking about.



"Didn't you resign because your mother was sick?"

"I can ask for leave even though my mother is sick.I don't have to resign.But I quit because I can't work
for her anymore."

"She said she would make me a designer, but look at the work she asked me to do.I can't never be a
designer by doing that work.She's been lying to me all this time!"

Hearing this, Grace was furious.

"Ann, you're talking nonsense!"

"Olivia is not such a person at all!"

Ann giggled at her angry voice.

"Grace, you're still defending her.Will you believe me only after she forces you to resign?"

"Oh, by the way, that piece of fabric is broken.She must have blamed you.Do you believe she might fire
you?"

"You!"

Grace wanted to say something, but she was in a mess now.

It was not that she believed Ann's words, but that Ann’s words made her realize that something was
wrong.She seemed to have been used.

There were even more serious things.

"Grace, I have two choices for you.One is that you resign and come to RISE.My fiancé is the director of
RISE.You just have to come here and I promise you a bright future.The other option is to tell Olivia that



I broke the fabric and see if Olivia will fire you.If she fires you, then I'm sorry, I won't let you come to
RISE"

"Think about it yourself..." Ann hung up the phone.

Grace stood there, pale and motionless.

RISE...

The RISE, which had always wanted to replace AK…
