She remembered that Stella had always disliked coffee and said that it was like drinking poison.

Now, she had ordered coffee and was drinking it reluctantly.

“You can order something else,” said

Grace.

“Oh, the coffee’s pretty good. I prefer coffee now,” Stella said reluctantly. She disliked coffee but found that many people in high society liked drinking it, so she naturally wanted to drink it too.

It made her feel like she was on a higher level!

Grace said nothing more.

After taking a few sips of coffee, Stella looked at Grace and said, “Grace, we’re cousins after all. I’m sorry you broke up with Jason. If you need any help, just let me know and I’ll do my best to help you.”

Then, Stella took a different turn in the conversation. “It’s just that Brian once mistook you for the one he was looking for, so I hope you can keep your distance from Brian and avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings between us. We’re relatives, after all.”

Grace suddenly let out a chuckle.

“Unnecessary misunderstandings? What kind of misunderstandings?”

“You were pulling and pushing with Brian at the film studio last time. It’s easy for others to get the wrong idea,” said Stella. Then, she added coyly. “I’m with Brian now. We haven’t announced anything officially yet, but soon…”

Stella spoke with deliberate hesitation, leaving people space for imagination.

“I have nothing to do with Brian, so don’t worry about it,” said Grace.

“Wouldn’t it be better if you could avoid appearing in front of him? Or… I could sponsor you to develop your career somewhere else? You could open up a shop or something. Wouldn’t life be easier? We’re sisters. I have enough money now anyway. Why don’t I give you two million dollars first?” said Stella.

‘Two million dollars?’ Grace just found it funny. ‘The two million dollars is probably Brian’s money. Now, the impostor’s going to use the money she got from Brian to drive me-the real deal-out of Emerald City?

‘Does she think I’m that easy to fool? Or is she too greedy?’

“If one day Brian finds out you’ve been lying to him, tell me, would he take the money back?” Grace asked suddenly.

Stella immediately felt a thump in her heart, and her expression gradually grew unnatural. “What are you talking about? What did I lie to Brian about?”

“Was it really you who saved Brian on the hill?” Grace looked at her.

“Of course. Could it be a lie?” Stella said, trying to keep her composure.

“Was it really you who saved him?” asked

Grace.

“What do you mean? Who else if it wasn’t me?” Stella insisted.

Grace looked at her with a sneer. “Sis, do you really think I’m that easy to fool? Do you think I’ll believe whatever you say?

You’re not the one who saved Brian.”

Stella’s face immediately paled, but she then said out of anger, “If it wasn’t me, then could it have been you? Do you think it was you just because I told you what happened on the hill when I was a kid? You’ve fooled Brian into thinking you saved his life. What are you going to do now?”

“Sis, the memories I’ve lost have come back, so you don’t have to say that much in front of me. The more you spin this story around, the more ridiculous it seems to me,” Grace said lightly.

Stella stiffened and stared at the person in front of her with disbelief. “What…

What are you saying… Did you… get your memory back?”

“Yes. How else would I have known that you’re so good at spinning stories?”

Grace replied sarcastically.

“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Stella insisted. She was not going to admit to being an impostor no matter what. “Grace, you’re not trying to hook up with Brian just because you’ve broken up with Jason, are you? You’re going too far if that’s true!”

“Why don’t I go talk to Brian now? What do you think he’ll think?” Grace asked coldly.

“Don’t you dare!” Stella panicked. ‘If Grace tells him, then… Everything I have now will be gone.’

“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Grace laughed.

“Why wouldn’t I dare say things I’ve done myself?”

For a split second, Stella felt cold and began to tremble as a sense of extreme fear filled her body.

“Sis, you’d better not say these words in my presence from now on. Since you’re

Grandma’s granddaughter too, I’ll have to warn you, Brian is not as easy to fool as you think. Sometimes, you’ll only lose everything if you’re too greedy.”

With that said, Grace got up, paid for her cup of coffee, and left the cafe.

Stella sat in the same spot and tried to calm herself with her cup of coffee, but she was shaking so much that she could not even lift the cup.

‘What should I do? Grace has gotten her memory back! If Grace tells Brian…

‘No, no! I must find a way so that even if Grace does tell him, Brian wouldn’t believe her!

‘I must… think of something!’

After Grace came out of the cafe, she took the bus to the place where Mrs. Corbyn and Nelson were now renting. She saw Kyla Corbyn there, and they were packing up their things.

When Nelson saw Grace, he jumped into her arms happily and told Grace that he could go to kindergarten after the summer was over!

“Have you found him a kindergarten?” asked Grace as she looked at Kyla

Corbyn.

“Yes, I’ve found one. The principal of a kindergarten over there is so kind. She found out about Nelson’s situation, and after a video chat with Nelson, she said she could let him join her kindergarten,” Kyla Corbyn said with a smile.

They finally had a piece of good news after days!

“When are you going to move to G City? Do you have a date?” Grace asked again..

“After half a month. I’m looking for a moving company these two days. I’ll let you know when we’ve fixed a date,” said Kyla Corbyn.

Grace nodded.

After hearing the news of their move to G City, the little one’s excited expression turned to a listless look as his little head drooped down. “Will you miss me when you can no longer see me?”

Grace kissed the little one on the cheek.

“Of course, I’ll miss you. Besides, I can still see you. We can video chat, and when I’m free, I’ll go to G City to visit you.

I want to take you to the amusement

park again!”

The little one’s face finally brightened a little at the mention of the amusement park.

“Will Uncle Harper come with us next time?” The little one had a good impression of Chase Harper.

Grace hesitated for a moment. It was as if she did not know how to answer that.

Kyla Corbyn saw her dilemma and interjected, saying, “It depends on whether Uncle Harper is free.”

Hearing that, Nelson nodded his little head and said, “Then we can go together when Uncle Harper is free!”

“Do you like Uncle Harper so much,

Nelson?” asked Grace.

“Uncle Harper lets me ride on his shoulders and brings me to have fun!”

The little one began to enumerate the fun activities with his fingers and most of these were a boy’s favorite sports that were usually played together by father and son.

Kyla Corbyn listened as a touch of sadness appeared in her eyes.

No matter how much she tried to take over the role of a father, it was a fact that Nelson grew up without a father.

She had seen the envy in her son’s eyes every time he saw other children with their fathers.

‘But… Martin Weiss wouldn’t be a good father. As far as Martin Weiss is concerned… Nelson should have never existed!’

Grace saw the sadness in Kyla Corbyn’s eyes, so she quickly changed the subject.

As she was leaving, she looked at Kyla

Corbyn and asked, “How’s your injury?”

“It’s nothing serious. It doesn’t hurt much when I walk now,” Kyla Corbyn said with a smile.

“Did Martin Weiss ever come looking for you again?” Grace asked again.

Kyla Corbyn shook her head. Since the day she hurt herself in front of him, he had never appeared in front of her again.

“Just let me know if there’s anything I can do for you. I may not be able to do much now, but… Many hands make light work,” said Grace.
