The Millionaire And His Billionaire Ex-Wife

Chapter 284

After all, Eric is coming, Grace doesn’t want Eder’s dignity and face to lose in front of others, so she

gestured to the small sofa beside her.

“Go and sit

Eder did not move at all, and lowered his head angrily, his black eyes were so cold that he wanted to

kill someone.

Grace remembered his illness, and quickly patted his cheek, gently comforting him.

“Be obedient, sit down. Maybe you’re innocence will be cleared in a while.”

Only then did Eder–restrain his tyrannical thoughs and sat on the sofa.

Fifteen minutes later.

Eric came in a hurry.

As soon as he entered the room, he was greeted by the cold and terrifying atmosphere in the living

room.

Seeing the pack of cigarettes in the coffee table, he knew it.

His meticulous design wasn’t in vain. The boss was caught so quickly.

Great job done!

He stood across the coffee table and was a little happy.

When Eder saw him he was furious! He actually dared to laugh?!

In front of Grace, Eder suppressed the fury in his heart, his voice was gloomy:

“Grace saw the cigarettes you put in the drawer. You honestly explain to Grace for me.

If

you dare

say a lie, I will bring you to the interrogation room tomorrow to use a lie detector and an electric shock

device!”

Shit! So cruel!

Why was this different from the script he had envisioned?

Isn’t the boss just looking forward to be hit? Shouldn’t he be very happy?

Eric was so frightened that he didn’t dare to say a word.

Grace frowned and glared at someone, “What are you threatening him for?”

“I, I didn’t…”

Eder’s tone instantly weakened.

Grace did not intend to scold him, just looked at Eric and asked in a plain tone, “Eric, answer me

honestly, did Eder smoke today?”

Eric was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously glanced at Eder next to her.

Eder reminded lightly. “Electric shock device.”

Eric was completely stunned. “He didn’t smokel Boss, asked me for a cigarette, but he just threw it

away after smelling it!”

Grace elegantly folded her hands in front of her chest and look at them back and forth calmly, reading

through their expressions.

“Don’t be afraid, Eric. With me here, as long as you tell the truth, I guarantee that Eder will not dare

to touch even a finger of you.”

With Grace’s assurance, Eric heaved a sigh of relief and raised his right hand and made an oath.

“Miss Grace, I promise that every word I say is absolutely true!”

“Good.”

Grace nodded, as if he believed him.

Eder heaved a sigh of relief.

However, before he could fully breathe, he heard Grace continued to ask, “What’s going on with the

cigarettes in the drawer?”

“Ross, asked me to buy them for him this afternoon. He said to find a drawer and hide them.”

Grace heard the key words and narrowed her eyes. “Hide?”

Eric modded, “Boss said that you have a lot of things to do during the day, so you don’t often look

through the drawers. He asked me to find a drawer in the corner to store it, so that it can’t be found.”

Grace sneered and looked meaningfully at Eder beside her.

“Oh, so that’s the case… So that, I won’t be able to find it…”

Eder was so angry that he almost vomitted blood!

Son of a b*tch! This bastard!

The situation is getting out of hand.

He gave Eric a hard look and gritted his teeth: “I want you to explain, not tell her what I said before! You

came here to help me! It’s all for nothing!”

Eric seemed to finally understand.

It turned out that he had misunderstood during the day. He thought that the boss was deliberately

looking for abuse. It seemed that he really wanted to hide from Miss Grace!

Compared with Eder’s explosive anger, Grace smiled very gently. “Don’t be afraid, you explained it very

well. With me here, you can say it with confidence.”

However, Eric, who learned that he had done something wrong and harmed his boss, was not as

confident as before.

He had to think carefully about how to make up for his mistakes,

Otherwise, his life would be over!

If Boss was really angered, even Miss Grace’s assurance will not be enough to save him for sure.

death!

After pondering for a while, he said earnestly, “Miss Grace, it’s true that he’s not right for hiding it from

you, but he really remembered your customized schedule in mind and never thought of smoking.”

“He’s been taking medicine three times a day recently. Those medicines are very bitter. If taken too

much, they will cause loss of appetite and nausea. He wanted to find a way to relieve the bitter taste

after taking the medicine. He just used the wrong method!”

Eric’s statement was spoken with extreme care and earnest.

Eder’s gloomy face gradually improved and he finally heard a few pleasing words from a certain person

who was here to help him.

There was no superfluous expression on Grace’s face, making it impossible to guess whether she

believed it or not.

Eric asked tentatively, “Miss Grace, just don’t be angry with him.”

After all, there were outsiders around, so Grace did not say that someone had lied to her and had tried

to lie to her again.

She looked at Eder and smiled gently. “This is a small matter for me to be angry. Eder, don’t you

agree?”

Eder nodded honestly.

Grace retracted her gaze and looked at the cigarettes on the coffee table. “But in the future, don’t keep

these cigarettes. They’re not good things. Eric, empty the cigarettes in the drawer and sell them all at a

low price.”

“Low price?!”

Eric’s eyes widened, they were all imported high–quality cigarette packs, they were very expensive!

This is what he has in his mind. It was too bad to sell them at a low price. His heart was bleeding! Eric

glanced at him, “Listen to Grace, take all these cigarettes away tonight. I don’t want to see these things

again!”

Eric felt bitter.

“Okay, boss.”

Eric was dealing with the cigarettes in the living room, Grace stood up and held Eder’s hand, “Let’s go

upstairs.”

It was obviously a very calm tone, but Eder’s heart still skip a beat.

After the extensive explanation… does he still have to go back to his room and get beaten?

With complicated emotions, he let Grace drag him back to the master bedroom.

“Sit.”

Eder sat down obediently, feeling very uneasy.

He wasn’t sure if Grace would be angry or not, but he knew that he really… really hated being hit!

If it weren’t for the fear that Grace would be angry, he would have long wanted to throw the drawer, and

mahogany ruler, and the washboard into the Pacific Ocean, the kind where he can no longer fish them

it out!

Just as he was thinking about this, he saw Grace turning her head, walking towards the bedside table,

with her hand on the first drawer, as if she was about to open it.

He knew very well what was lying inside!

Before Grace could fully open the drawer, he grabbed his heart, frowned, and said weakly, “Grace, I… I

feel bad…”

Grace ran over almost immediately to check his condition. “Chest pain? Is the illness flaring up again?

How could this happen? Logically speaking, after taking the medicine for a week, it should not be so

easy for you to get sick.”

His breath was weak, his eyelashes were drooping, his handsome face was pale, and his whole body

was fragile, as he leaned against her embrace.

Grace was very worried, “I can’t bear it if you get sick! I’ll help you get the medicine to supress the

onisel effects.”

“No need!”

She was about to get up when someone grabbed her wrist.

The hand was very gentle, without the slightest feeling of weakness that had caused him to tremble in

pain before.

As if realizing that he had reacted too aggressively, Eder let go of her hand and burrowed his head to

her arms as he spoke in a low voice, “I mean, I’m much better with you in my arms…”

Grace didn’t speak.

She lowered her head, narrowed her cold eyes, and quietly stared at someone’s head.

This thing not only lied to her today, but also deceived her.

Originally, she wanted to let him go and use the anti–swelling ointment in the drawer to wipe his

knees.

But now it seems… huh!
