Chapter 28
When Cole and Grace were exchanging contacts, he took the initiative to put his own name on her phone as her boyfriend
“Ms. Harper. I’m a germaphobe. So, 1 hope you won’t have any contact with other men hiring out trial relationship. You can’t even contact Zane. After all, it won’t look nice if you get back with your ex
She pulled out he contact history and said, “Don’t worry, I would never get my decision. When I returned to Jadewood, I had already gotten rid of my old SIM card if you don’t believe me, feel free to check my phone. Zane and I are over.”
Of course, Cole didn’t look at her phone at all. He just wanted to give her a reminder. However, from what he could tell at that moment, she was colder than he had anticipated “Do you know how to prepare breakfast?”
Yeah
“Hick me up for work at seven in the morning tomorrow.”
He thought she would be upset at first. To his surprise, she took out her notepad right away and asked, “What do you like to eat? I’ll take note of t
He reached out outtle her hair and said, “It would be a shame if you weren’t the top salesperson of the year, Ms. Harper.”
“I’ll show you that you’ve made the right decision when you chose me, Mr. Jensen.”
“hope”
At that moment, Cole’s ride had arrived. When he approached the cat, Grace immediately opened the door for him. “Good night, Mr. Jensen ”
Cole looked away from his joyous face, and his gare red cold. After he rolled up the window, the car drove off. Grace didn’t have the time to care about how he felt. After all, all that mattered to her was reaching her goals.
Meanwhile, Cole looked at Grace through the rearview mirres. Although she was seeing him off, he knew it was just part of their partnership. She wasn’t really unwilling to see him As he caressed the ring on his finger, his gaze darkened further. Suddenly, his phone started ringing, and cole noticed it was Zane calling him. “What’s up?” he asked after he coldly answered theall
Zane didn’t know why he had a bad feeling. He was certain that the woman in the picture wasn’t Grace, but he still couldn’t help worrying after seeing it. He also saw the news about Cole and Zelda hinting it of well, and it could be Zelda holding hands with Cole that night
“I saw the news. Are you going to marry Mr. Langford, Uncle Cole
“No. I’ll be marrying the daughter of the Harper family.” Cole was honest about it, and he casually asked, “Are you coming back to visit Nydia?”
“No, I’m not invested in anyone else. If you can marry someone from the Harper Lamily, Mom will finally stop urging me to do it.”
“When are you returning?”
Pimore was a huge place, and there were a lot of soulst spots all over the place. Zane was planning to head to another one of the spots the next day, but he still didn’t know if Grace would be there too. So, he said dispiritedly, “We’ll see about it. I’m a little busy these days.*
“Alright. Take care of yourself out there,” Cole said before ending the call
Then, he looked at the Harper residence, which was already far away from him. When Zane returned, everything would have already settled down.
Cole checked out Grace’s private social media account. She had a puppet cat as her profile picture, and she didn’t have a lot of posts. Most of the posts she made were pictures of scenery sha andomly took There was a dark picture of a building, a septa picture of some woods, and a lamp post in the snow.
Unsurprisingly, all of the pictures she took look ad
As Cole slowly tapped on the screen, he changed Grace’s name on his phone to “darling”
