Chapter 93
Livia had been abroad for years, and her sudden return was said to be due to a breakup with her long-time
boyfriend in that country.
Years ago, she had defied her parents for Antonio, but the class difference between them ultimately led them to
break up.
Her sudden return meant she hadn't yet purchased many daily necessities or even furnishings.
So Antotook Grace to help out..
Grace didn’t want to go, but since her resignation was still in process and Antowas still her boss, she had no
reason to refuse..
On the way there, Antokept reminding Grace not to let Livia carry or lift anything, as she was already
exhausted from flight.
Grace silently nodded, she didn’t care, she only wanted to do her job and go back to her room, away from him.
Antodid not even introduce them to each other, and Grace had to watch him embrace her and gush about
her looks.
Later he took Livia to the mall, and refused to let her pay for anything, charging everything she wanted on his
card.
“Don’t worry, just let Grace carry the bags,” he told Livia once when she was going to grab one of the things
they bought.
After finishing their shopping, Grace tiredly followed the two, listening to them chat about old times.

“Antonio, do you remember how you had flowers flown in from Lumoria
for my birthday? | haven't got flowers from anyone in all the years | was
abroad.”
Grace had also received flowers, and she had been thrilled for ages.
Now she knew that they were actually for celebrating Livia’s birthday.
“Every twe went out, you would taketo that dessert shop to cat our fill. | wonder if it’s still around after
all this time.”
It hasn't closed down,’ Grace answered inwardly.
Two months ago. Antohad taken her there.
The forest cakes there were delicious, and he always ordered two
knew, that was because Livia liked them too.
race started to question herself about everything that had happened while they were together during all those
years.
Did he really enjoy doing all those activities they did together? Or was it just because they reminded him of
Livia?
Was blue really his favorite color? The one he insisted on her to wear most of the time? Or was it Livia’'s?
The three walked slowly, one after the other. As Antoand Livia. continued talking about old memories, Grace
could find similar memories: in her own mind.
It was only then when she realized all the pampering Antohad shown. her was because of Livia.
The flowers, the chocolates, the elegant scarfs that she could clearly see now Livia wore.
Did the sexy lingerie he gave her was also meant to be because it reminded him of his precious Livia?
Grace stopped herself from overthinking and focused on the work she had to do.
After half a day, the empty room was tidied up. Not only had she cleaned. everything, she had also organized all
very professionally.
Livia was satisfied with Grace's efficiency. So she turned to Antonio. “I forgot to ask, who is this lady?”
Antoreplied, “Oh, this is Grace, she works at our home.”
“Oh, really? | don’t remember seeing her before,” Livia mentioned.
Antoscratched his head and nodded, looking at Grace a bit confused, as if searching what to say about her.
“Grace’s mom had worked for us for years, and she always had Grace with her. A few years ago, she passed
away. Since Grace had no other family, she stayed on. Now she works as my assistant.”
Livia’'s eyes showed a hint of surprise, which quickly changed to a smile.
“How nice your family is.” Livia draped her arm over Antonio‘ shoulder. “You are an incredible boss, | am sure.”
Grace let her eyes drop, staring at her shoes.
Just then, Livia turned her head and caught sight of Grace's ring. She asked, “Grace, I've seen this ring before.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt's quite valuable. Looks like Antopays you well.”
Grace focused her eyes on what Livia said. Looking at the sparkling diamond ring, she was slightly surprised.
This ring was a gift from Devin before he went on a business trip. He said
that although the wedding was postponed, the gesture had to be there. The ring was a symbol of their union.
Grace didn’t know the value of the jewels and thought it was a simple
ring.
It was a very expensive ring? This was something she did not expect from Devin.
Antoglanced at the ring, his brow furrowing involuntarily.
Livia smiled at Grace's confusion. “The ring is beautiful, but it's on the wrong finger. The ring finger is only for
wedding rings.”
Grace responded with a shy smile, “No mistake, this is my wedding ring.”
“You're already married?” Livia's face showed surprise.
Grace nodded. “Yes, just a couple of days ago.”
Antonio’ face darkened instantly. He stared at Grace for a few seconds but ultimately remained silent.
Grace did not understand why he would be upset, wasn’t he so in love with Livia? Why did he care that she was
now married to another man?
If anything, he should be happy about this, and even relieved that she would never cbetween him and his
precious Livia.
