Chapter 119
Grace was stunned.
Justin felt a little uncomfortable. He straightened his back and looked at her seriously and intently. “Grace, if you don’t mind, I’m willing to spend the rest of my life taking care of you. Are you willing”
Grace was stunned for a long time. The setting sun scattered on the ends of Justin’s brown hair, coating it with a layer of golden warmth.
Is he confessing to me? Grace thought
Grace was a little uncertain. She did not believe that a single young man like Justin would say that he would take care of her for the rest of her life when she was pregnant and divorced.
Justin was at a loss for what to do. He apologized to her hurriedly as if he was afraid of scaring her.
I’m sorry. Was I in such a hurry that I frightened you?”
Grace lowered her eyes and shook her head. “Dr. Vance, I’m not worthy of being taken care of by you for the rest of my life.”
Justin frowned and looked at her seriously. “Grace, I won’t allow you to say that. It’s not up to you to decide if it’s worth it or not. If I say it’s worth it, it’s worth it!”
Grace looked at Justin. Justin’s usually gentle eyes became hot at this moment as if they were filled. with a raging fire.
He heart skipped a beat and she stood up in a panic. “It’s getting late. I want to go back and rest for a while.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Justin pursed his lips and looked at Grace’s retreating back. Justin’s heart was pounding because of his confession just now.
He hurried after her. ‘It doesn’t matter. There is plenty of time. I can take my time, Justin thought.
On the second day of hospitalization, Daisy called.
Grace didn’t pick up. She let her phone ring over and over again. There was a knock on the door.
Justin was holding a thermos in his hand. He was dressed in white as he stood at the door and looked at her with a smile. The scene was gentle and beautiful.
Justin paused at the door and walked into the ward. He placed the thermos on the cabinet and opened it, one layer after another.
“I asked the nanny at home to make some chicken soup. Try it.”
The fragrant smell of chicken soup hit Grace in the face. Grace happened to be hungry. When she smelled this, she drooled.
Justin scooped a spoonful and blew on it gently before bringing it to her mouth. “Be careful not to burn yourself.”
Grace took a sip. It was as if her taste buds had experienced something wonderful.
“Does it taste good?”
Grace nodded heavily. “It’s delicious. Your nanny’s culinary skills are amazing.”
Justin smiled. “Then I’ll bring it for you every day from now on.”
Grace paused. “Justin, you don’t have to do this. I…”
“What? You’re not even going to give me a chance to pursue you?”
Grace’s face heated up and her mind went blank.

At that moment, her phone rang again. Grace came back to her senses and instinctively answered. the call.
As soon as she picked it up, Daisy’s sharp voice came through the phone.
“You ingrate! I’ve raised you for more than twenty years! You didn’t even answer your mother’s call! Are you not going to care whether your brother dies? Why are you so heartless?”
Grace frowned and moved the phone away,
Day’s roar continued to come from the receiver. “Brian has already sent the divorce agreement to our house! Hurry up and beg Brian! Do you really want to watch your brother die from illness? You evil creature!”
On the side, Justin could hear Daisy’s harsh voice, but he could not hear what Daisy said clearly.
Daisy did not hear Grace speak. After scolding Grace long enough, Daisy asked, “You heartless. ingrate! Say something! I asked you to say something! Are you mute? Why don’t you die, you beast!”
Grace heard her endless cursing. Sometimes, she even wondered if she was really Daisy’s child!
