Chapter307 Antostayed out of my hair for a few days after that, and I wasn't complaining. I enjoyed the quiet.

I threw myself into the design contest, using any spare moment to draw up ideas.

Once I submitted my designs for the semi-finals, I waited.

Five days later, I found out I'd made it to the finals.

To celebrate, I had Linda and a few colleagues over for a meal.

As I was getting the food ready, Tyler showed up at the door.

He handeda box as soon as I opened it. "I bought these from a fancy restaurant, all your favorites." "I've said it a thousand times. I don't want them.

"Don't bother trying to winover," I said.

Tyler's smile was a little forced. "Grace, is there anything that can make you forgive me?" "I'm moving on, and you should too," I replied.

Tyler went silent for a moment and then asked, "Will you be back for Mom's remembrance next month? "I feel bad I missed it two years ago." I thought back to the call I'd made to Tyler that day.

He chose to stay with Michelle and her mom, watching their pet have its litter, instead of being with my mom on her remembrance day.

But it was fine. I was there for my mom.

No matter where I ended up, I would always honor her memory.

I wasn't about to miss this year's memorial.

I shook my head. "Save your apologies. You should be saying that to Mom." Tyler apologized again, his head hanging low as he walked away.

Linda sauntered over, her hand coming to rest on my shoulder. "One of your pursuers, huh?" "No, just an old acquaintance," I said.

Picking up on my vibe, Linda didn't dig deeper but switched gears to the next steps in the competition.

Chatting about the competition quickly cheeredup.

On the big day, there I was in the crowd, dressed in a black dress.

Tyler sat among the spectators, looking sharp in his suit.

Antonio? No sign of him.

When the host announced my name, the whole place went still for a beat.

The silence was broken by a round of applause that filled the air.

I rose to my feet with the spotlight made my way to the stage, on and grasped the prize that should have been mine two rs back.

I showed my gratitude to my team, gave dedicated my win to my mom erod to Linda's support, amet watching from above. Content Belongs to I didn't mention Tyler at all.

As I stepped off the stage, Tyler hurried towards mexX"Grace, Antonio's been knifed by Michel You might go to see him "content belongs to no "Is he dead?" I asked.

Tyler shook his head. "Nope, but he hurts badly."

"I am not a doctor. Going to see him won't fix a thing I refused.

Looking all gloomy, Tyler just stood there and didn't say a word for ages.
