However, when she got to the point of hypnosis, she was a little hesitant.

‘If that’s my memory, am I really the one Brian is looking for? What should I do? Tell Brian I’m the one he’s looking for?

‘Will it only create more trouble?

‘However… If I don’t get to the bottom of this, then…’ Her heart felt empty like it had no bottom. It was as if imagination and reality were constantly interlacing, making her feel uneasy.

As she was thinking about this, her phone rang suddenly. It was a call from Jason. Grace answered and heard a familiar male voice from her phone. “How was your trip to the hospital? Have you seen the doctor?”

“Yes, I have,” replied Grace.

“What did the doctor say?”

“It’s… It’s nothing serious. I’ll keep it under observation for a while,” she said somewhat guiltily. After all, she had always felt that partners should be honest with each other, yet now she was lying to him.

“Great. There’s a trade fair tomorrow. Come with me. I’ve told jewelry you like,” said Jason.

“Sure,” replied Grace.

When the call ended, Jason, who was on the other side of the line, looked coldly at Terrence. “What did Dr. Guzman say other than suggesting that she do hypnosis?”

“He gave Miss Cummins the name and contact information of a psychiatrist.” As Terrence spoke, he pa**ed over a note that would surprise Grace if she came across it here.

This was because the name and contact number on the note were the same as the one she had gotten from Dr. Guzman.

“Keep an eye on this. If Grace does go to this psychiatrist, I want to know right away,” Jason said coldly.

“Yes,” replied Terrence.

As a private secretary, he could not understand why Young Master Reed would watch Miss Cummins so closely when she was only seeing a doctor.

Of course, what confused him more was… The doctor on this note was a psychiatrist.

‘Is Miss Cummins going to see a psychiatrist?’

However, Terrence was wise enough to never inquire about what he should not ask, and that was why he was able to stay in this position for so many years.

Joy Color was a well-known shop in Emerald City. However, Joy Color was only popular in high society. After all, those who could enter the shop were either rich or aristocratic.

Grace had visited Joy Color once when she was dating Sean

Stevens.

Otherwise, she would not even know what Joy Color was.

The driver drove Grace to Joy Color’s entrance. The manager of the shop had apparently been informed. As soon as Grace appeared, he respectfully stepped forward and said, “Hello, Miss Cummins. I’m the shop’s manager. My last name is Wang.

You can call me Manager Wang, Miss Cummins.”

Manager Wang led Grace into the gown section, then pa**ionately and respectfully introduced some gowns that were suitable for Grace.

The other staff were also extremely respectful toward Grace as they would hold the gowns to show her and brought her various shoes as well as bags to look at.

The treatment was simply a VIP-level treatment.

Grace remembered faintly when Sean Stevens had brought her here the previous time. The staff merely gave her a curt reception before moving on to the socialites.

All she was left with was embarra**ment back then.

She had not been here since.

She knew the staff’s respectful attitude toward her was not because she was Grace but because the man behind her was

Jason.

This was the reality of it. Many people in this society would climb on the bandwagon.

However, she hoped that one day, people would look her in the eye not because of who was behind her but just because of herself.

In the end, Grace chose a purple gown. This gown was very simple in design. Although the design was relatively conservative, it gave people a sense of elegance and demure. The combination of crushed diamonds and lace at the waist and skirt brought out a sense of etherealization that helped the gown from feeling too rigid.

One of the staff was about to say something when Grace chose the gown, but Manager Wang stopped him with his eyes.

Only when Grace entered the fitting room did the staff say,

“So what if she fancies it? It’s not hers. Besides, the crown prince hasn’t acknowledged Miss Lindsay’s identity, but this. one…” Manager Wang tutted. “Young Master Reed ordered us to entertain her well and to let her buy whatever she likes.”

Hearing this, the staff immediately fell silent.

After a while, Grace came out of the fitting room wearing the gown, lighting up the eyes of everyone there.

The gown was a great foil to Grace’s disposition. The purple color’s elegance and calmness seemed to mix well with her water-like serenity.

She had a comely face with no makeup on, and her hair was simply tied up. Although she was just standing there and looking at people quietly, the others could not help but put their eyes on her.

Immediately, Manager Wang seemed only too eager to use all his praises on Grace.

Naturally, Grace would not take Manager Wang’s exaggerated praises seriously, but… The gown was indeed nice, and it fit her just right.

“I’ll take this one then,” said Grace.

“Sure, Miss Cummins. Please come this way. Mr. Reed told us to reserve some jewelry so that you can see which set you’d like,” said Manager Wang.

Therefore, Grace followed Manager Wang out of the fitting room and was walking down the corridor when Grace stopped in her tracks suddenly because the two people walking toward her happened to be her acquaintances.

‘Brian and Stella Lindsay!’

Stella Lindsay’s eyes immediately widened at the sight of the gown Grace was wearing as she immediately shouted, “Why are you wearing my gown?”

“Your gown?” asked Grace as she raised her eyebrows.

“Yes, I had my eye on it!” Stella Lindsay now looked at Grace with envy in her eyes.

She thought the gown looked elegant. She specially brought Brian here today hoping to impress him by wearing the gown in front of him.

She did not think she was any worse than those female celebrities!

However, she did not expect Grace to be wearing the gown and… She looked so beautiful!

“Grace, you’re not going to take my gown, are you?” asked Stella Lindsay.

Grace turned her head to look at Manager Wang. “Is this gown hers?”

Manager Wang was moaning and groaning to himself right now.

In his opinion, Stella Lindsay was only rumored online to be the crown prince’s next girlfriend, but the prince never admitted it, had he?

Therefore, he was not afraid to offend Stella Lindsay.

However, unexpectedly, the crown prince actually accompanied her here, which made him look like he was concerned about Stella Lindsay.

‘Is Stella Lindsay really the woman the crown prince likes?’

One was the crown prince’s woman, and the other one was

Young Master Reed’s woman. Manager Wang only wished he could pa** out immediately so that he would not have to face such a difficult problem.

Brian only stared at Grace blankly. She stood still, waiting for the manager’s reply.

The lights from the corridor fell softly on her, making her look.

gentle and quiet.

However, there seemed to be tenacity in those apricot eyes. The woman may look gentle, but it seemed as if nothing could crush her.pain could not erase the tenacity and clarity in her eyes.

Stella Lindsay looked at the way Brian looked at Grace and felt even more jealous. Therefore, she bit her lip and pretended to be aggrieved as she said, “Brian, I wanted to wear the gown to show it to you. Didn’t you say you liked the color purple when we were younger? You said you were going to give me a purple dress someday.”

Brian pursed his thin lips slightly. When he heard Stella Lindsay say these words, his heart seemed to start throbbing again.
