Chapter 17
Just as Grace turned around, a loud sound of a heavy object falling suddenly echoed in front of her.
She instinctively looked towards the source of the sound and saw Antonio’s assistant looking terrified.
“Mrs. Kaufman?”
In the end. Grace naturally did not succeed in leaving, as the assistant firmly stopped her.
“Mrs. Kaufman, please don’t leave. You don’t know what Mr. Kaufman has been through all these years. Even if you don’t want to bring up the past. I beg you to stay and spend some time with him, considering that he saved you once.”
Grace let out a long sigh and said, “First of all, don’t call me Mrs. Kaufman, we weren’t even dating.”
“Secondly, I could stay to accompany him, but once I made sure he was fine, I still had to leave.”
“After all, I didn’t want to have any further relationship with him.”
Every time Grace spoke, the assistant’s face became more embarrassed.
Finally, the assistant had no choice but to compromise and agree to all of Grace’s demands.
The two of them sat quietly on the chairs outside the operating room, waiting.
suffocated.
Antonio, disregarding his own injuries, frantically rolled off the bed.
His mind was in a state of confusion, and he didn’t know how Grace came to know about those things.
His mind was filled with only one thought, to leave her!
Antonio rushed over quickly and embraced the person, tremblingly saying. “Grace. Grace, listen to me explain!”
Grace had no intention of listening to him speak here.
The dance troupe has a performance tomorrow, so she had to go back early to rest and recharge her energy.
So Grace reached out and pushed him away directly, saying. “Let go of
me!”
“No. I don’t!”
Antonio also shook his head frantically, not wanting to be let go by her again, just like in his dream.
And once again, I experienced the excruciating pain of being torn apart.
Grace saw and directly said it was not possible and had to change her tone, sighing. “Antonio, I had a performance tomorrow.”
“Do you still want to ruin the competition for me like you did before and drag down the whole team with me?”
Her words successfully made his face change, and the strength in his hands also loosened.
It seems that he also remembered that incident.
That year was the first week of Grace and Antonio’s relationship, and it was also her first competition as the lead dancer.
For this competition. Grace had been preparing for nearly half a year.
During the process, we constantly modified the movements with the members, striving to make the dance as perfect as possible.
But it was just the day before the competition that she was locked in the apartment by Antonio, and he even took her phone away.
Grace still remembers the collapse and despair of that day, even now, and she vividly recalls the disappointed expressions of the members.
She quietly watched his expression, which remained calm. However, his eyes were filled with conflict and pain.
In the end. Antonio chose to let go.
