FakeNovelChapter 411 Jordan let out a sigh of relief and handed his phone to the butler.
Jodie, kneeling in front of the desk, saw how fast he hung up the phone. Her tone turned anxious as she asked, "Grandpa, what did Uncle Ethan say?" "He doesn't like Grace." Jodie clenched her fists even tighter, and tears started streaming down her face. As expected, the more he liked Grace, the less he was willing to admit it.
Jordan picked up his fountain pen and wanted to continue practicing, but his brows slightly furrowed when he saw how heartbroken Jodie was.
"Jodie, why do you care so much about Ethan's marriage? If you have time, try to talk ssense into your mother. Don't tell the whole world about our family's dirty laundry." Jodie slowly stood up, feeling only numbness in both her legs. She wiped her cheeks twice.
"Grandpa, don't you find it strange that a golden boy like Uncle Ethan, who lost the use of his legs back then, didn't hold Grace accountable? Isn't it possible that he already liked her at that time?" Jordan was amused and let out a laugh. "Did you mean back when Grace was chasing after Yancey all over the place, Ethan already had a crush on her?" With features and status like that, how could Ethan have a crush on a nobody? Jodie's tears began streaming down even more uncontrollably. Of course, everyone in the world wouldn't believe Ethan would fall for Grace.

She dug her nails deeply into her palms.
She took a deep breath and said, "Grandpa, I'll prove it to you." After finishing her sentence, she turned around and left right away.
Jordan looked at the words he had just written the strokes looked bold and powerful.
He put his pen down and spoke to the butler beside him.
"Notify everyone that they're all to chfor Christmas." The butler's demeanor was very respectful, and he gave a subtle nod.
After leaving Henderson Residence, Jodie looked up into the sky as if she had made up her mind.
She immediately pulled out her phone and called Joanne, speaking arrogantly. "I need you to cooperate withfor whatever comes next. I'll make sure Grace won't suspect you, but you're going to have to sacrifice Andrea." Joanne pressed her lips together. Meeting with Jodie at first was unintentional, and she knew Jodie wasn't as dumb as Andrea. Besides, a heiress from a wealthy family wasn't someone Joanne could simply toy with. Otherwise, there would be consequences "What do you need from me, Ms. Henderson?" Joanne asked.
"Get Andrea to make things difficult for Grace. Just keep Grace occupied enough so she won't have tfor anything else." That way, Grace wouldn't have enough energy to be around Ethan. And with Christmas approaching, Ethan would be busy as well.
Joanne curled her lips into a smirk. She had always wanted to get rid of Andrea. Andrea had a lowly status yet still dared to covet Ethan. Thus, she deserved to die.
"Got it." During the weekend, Grace cto Liam's villa. A few maids were in the villa, but Liam hadn't been around recently, so it felt quiet and deserted.
Christmas was just around the corner, and Liam's birthday just happened to land on Christmas Eve. She planned to bring him out and have a meal together when the day came.
Lately, Liam had been messaging Grace every day, sharing snotes he took. He had been learning quite quickly, which made her feel somewhat comforted.
She went to the market to pick up sChristmas decorations and had the maids help decorate. They hung a Christmas wreath and colourful fairy lights around the villa, filling the place with holiday cheer and festivity. sŵ Meanwhile, Andrea had received a call from Joanne and promptly went to Grace's apartment complex's entrance to wait for her.
When Grace returned and saw Andrea, she instantly furrowed her brows.
Andrea stood there arrogantly and held out her hand. "I need money to raise this child. ecouldn't bring myself to ask Liam for it, so you'll have to giveinstead. "Also, I need salmon and premium collagen supplements for every meal. I can't let the baby insidebe mistreated." Grace tried to walk past her and leave, but Andrea caught up to her again.
"Grace, Liam really cares about this baby. If anything happens towhile I'm here with you, do you think he won't hold grudges against you?"
Grace paused briefly, rubbing the spot between her brows with her hand. "I'll m pretransfer the money to your previous bank card-300 thousand dollars. Don't cnearagain until after Christmas." Andrea's eyes lit up in an instant-that was more money than she could make in her lifetime. She had to thank Joanne for this.
"That's not enough. I want to buy a villa. Or, you could letmove into Liam's villa instead."
