Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 524

Ivy wasn't in her room?

In fact, from the looks of it, she hadn't slept here at all last night…

Where did she go?

She had been here for dinner last night.

And she had taken that call from Elliot, saying she had to sign some papers today…

Sign papers?

A thought flashed through Grace's mind.

Could she have left last night?

With a trembling hand, she pulled out her phone and found Ivy's number.

Her fingertip hovered over the call button, but she couldn't bring herself to press it.

Should she call?

What if Ivy was in the middle of something important?

Would a call from her mess things up?

Or maybe…

Would Ivy find her annoying?

“Grace, what is wrong with you?”

Ethan's voice echoed in her mind like a recurring nightmare, laced with undisguised disgust. “I told you I’m busy. Can you stop acting like a desperate housewife?”

Cassian had also coldly pushed her hand away once. “Grace, can you be a little more considerate? Lilian is sick, everyone is on edge. Can you please not cause trouble by calling at a time like this?”

Memories of the past slapped her like a series of blows, making her cheeks burn.

It was true.

She was always the extra one.

Always the one who showed up at the wrong time, disrupting other people’s lives.

Maybe Ivy just didn't want her to worry.

If she called now, it would just show that she didn't trust her, that she was… a burden.

A series of sharp, piercing wails from Gianna suddenly broke the silence.

Grace snapped back to reality and rushed downstairs without a second thought.

In the nursery, the nanny was frantically trying to soothe a crying Gianna, her forehead slick with sweat.

The nanny was beside herself, but Gianna only cried harder, her little face turning red as she kicked her arms and legs, as if she'd had a terrible fright.
