“Grace Martinez is pregnant?

For James Marshall, this news was unquestionably like a bolt from the blue.

In an instant, James was jolted out of his daze and regained total alertness, the worry in his brow deepening.

After a pause, James softened his voice further, tenderly coaxed, “Grace, we are both busy with our careers and, also, I am stuck here in the Kingdom of Dale, where my future is uncertain, so…”

Hearing this, Grace was utterly disappointed.

She had finally seen the true colors of this scumbag.

Interrupting him, Grace blurted out, “So you don’t want the child. Don’t bother making excuses for me anymore, James. I’m only giving you one choice. Either divorce and marry me or I expose everything between us to the media.”

“I can’t wait any longer. My youth, my life can’t wait any longer, and I don’t want to listen to your empty promises anymore.” Towards the end, Grace began to get emotional. She was devastated.

Despite his visible anger, James held back his rage and gently tried to console her, “Grace, I truly love you. You know that. My family wouldn’t allow me to do that. Please, just be a little more patient. I promise I’m going to handle this. I…”

James was cut off as Grace hung up the phone abruptly, not wanting to hear his deceiving lies anymore.

At this moment, Grace Martinez was more alert than she ever was.

Indeed, as Daniel Marshall had stated correctly, James would not divorce his wife. He had never intended to legitimize their relationship. He was merely using her.

James had no intention of keeping this child.

Suddenly, Grace chuckled coldly. Her heart had turned frigid.

A wave of disappointment washed over her and threatened to submerge her.

Anxious, James tried calling Grace.

Not only did she not answer his calls, but she also shut the phone off.

In a flash, James viciously hammered his fist onto the chair in his study. He spat out an angry curse, “Damn it! If this bitch dares to harm me, I swear I won’t let her off.”

Hesitant for a moment, the restless James made an international call.

It seemed that Grace was not willing to abort the baby, and she was going to use the child to manipulate him.

This wretched woman was the root of all evil. Her child couldn’t be spared.

Divorce?

Only a fool would divorce. He still needed his wife’s powerful family connections.

Without his wife’s family’s support, it would be next to impossible for him to seize control of Marshall Corporation. He wasn’t a fool to throw away a watermelon to pick up a sesame seed.

If Grace obeyed him, he might let her off. But if she dared to cross him, he would not let her live.

…

Without any hesitation, Grace immediately stormed towards the CEO’s office.

Seeing that manager Martinez had arrived, Secretary Saunders led her straight in.

Grace Ziegler suddenly stopped her work, looking towards the direction of the CEO’s office.

Manager Martinez looked very upset; it seemed like something major had happened.

Secretary-general Saunders looked towards the secretary’s office and Grace Ziegler quickly shifted her gaze, daring not to look around carelessly.

In the CEO’s office, Grace sat in front of Daniel Marshall and came straight to the point, “I can tell you everything I know, but I have one condition. You have to ensure my safety.”

Daniel’s sharp eyes were fixed on Grace without flinching, the handsome face emanating a supreme and natural air of royalty, “May I know why this sudden change of heart?”

“I’m pregnant. He doesn’t want the baby and he won’t divorce. You were right, I mean nothing to him. Given James’s personality, he won’t tolerate disobedience. I won’t agree to abort the child, he will try to kill me, I need safekeeping. Perhaps, he’d be impatient and make me miscarry.”

A faint smile played at the corners of Daniel’s mouth as he glanced at Grace unblinkingly, his gaze inscrutable.
