Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 386

Grace hummed a response before looking at Carmen.

Carmen got up. "I'm going back now. Gra-Grace, thanks for keeping the Lambert family's company afloat."

Considering how Grace addressed her as "Mrs. Lambert" earlier, she did not dare to speak to her in an endearing manner.

Meanwhile, Grace had heard Carmen stutter when she called her name twice. There was an inexplicable feeling of dejection.

That forlorn feeling came crashing in like the great tide.

Grace opened her mouth to say something, but only nodded in the end.

Carmen turned around and began making her way to the exit, with Andrea following diligently behind.

Only Liam and Grace were left in the room.

As Grace had forgiven Liam, he managed to recompose himself very quickly. "Look at all these books on the shelf. I've finished reading them. I'm really doing my best.

"You can just call me and test me on them. If there's anything I don't understand, I'll make sure to get to the bottom of it. Please don't leave me here all by myself.

"It makes me feel like the entire world has abandoned me."

Grace lifted her hand and gave him a few pats on the head. "I'm sorry."

Liam pursed his lips. Suddenly, he burst into tears.

He had been through so much lately. All he did was feel bad to see Alice—whom he had grown up with— fall on hard times. Who would have known that he would be infected?

And then, there was Grace—his sister who had done nothing but adored him all his life—who dumped him here without an ounce of hesitation, refusing to meet him.

His father had passed away; his mother had become a nun—in a short matter of time, his world had fallen apart.

He had no idea what he had done wrong. Every day, he would have to brace himself for the pill that tormented him. He would be thrown into a great panic, making him feel like he had lost his mind.

Now that Grace had agreed to talk to him, that sense of panic was finally gone. Big teardrops fell from his eyes, like a broken faucet.
