Chapter 14
A glimpse of the charity fundraising scene, Antonio was restless all day.
Despite the unfamiliarity and resistance displayed by Grace, Chad’s arguments had no loopholes, but Antonio’s intuition told him that she was the person he had been longing for.
Chad retrieved the investigation materials.
The girl was an undocumented resident, reportedly the cousin of their village teacher, who came to seek refuge after her hometown was washed away by a flood.
“Stonefort had indeed experienced a lot of flooding recently, so she…”
The coldness in Antonio’s eyes made Chad’s voice abruptly
stop.
“I wanted to go and see it myself.”
Grace stood by the bed, with a furrowed brow and a worried look in her eyes.
She carefully brought the bowl of medicine and sat by the bed.
“Zackery, get up and drink your medicine.”
Zackery slightly opened his eyes, mustered a weak smile, and struggled to sit up.

Grace hurriedly supported him and handed the medicine bowl to his mouth.
“Slow down, don’t burn yourself.”
Recently, there has been a lot of rainfall, and the river has become increasingly deep. Surprisingly, a few children who didn’t know how deep it was went to play in the water.
Thanks to Zackery, who was nearby and saved the child, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The child’s parents left with a thousand thanks, but Zackery fell ill.
Grace sighed, Zackery really was one of the few good people.
Zackery blushed a little.
“It’s okay, I can handle it myself.”
Coincidentally, the village chief was leading Antonio over.
Antonio’s footsteps abruptly halted as he watched Grace meticulously taking care of Zackery, and a wave of jealousy surged within his heart.
He strode forward and forcefully separated the hands of two people that were barely touching.
The medicine bowl “crashed” to the ground, splashing medicine juice everywhere.
He grabbed Grace’s hand again.
“Grace, come back with me!”

Grace’s heart was filled with a nearly desperate pain. She was crazily eager to get rid of him, always feeling that the person in front of her would only bring her disaster.
Zackery saw her in a state of collapse, and he struggled to get up from his sickbed to shield her behind him.
His voice was firm.
“Mr. Kaufman, you donated to the children, and I appreciated and respected you.”
“But Cierra was my sister, she didn’t want to see you, please stay away from her in the future!”
Antonio looked at the man in front of him and felt a surge of anger in his heart.
In his opinion, Zackery was just an outsider taking advantage of Grace’s amnesia.
His voice was as cold as ice.
“This is between me and Grace, stay out of it.”
“She was my wife.”
Zackery coldly retorted.
“She wasn’t.”
The two of them were on edge, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Grace stood behind Zackery, feeling uneasy in her heart.
She didn’t want to see Zackery because she was hurt, and she

She took a deep breath and walked forward.

“Mr. Kaufman, I will say it one last time, I am not the person you are looking for. Please do not bother me anymore.”
“I knew that you had a lot of power, but that wasn’t a reason for you to harm me and my brother.”
Antonio watched as Grace protected Zackery without hesitation, feeling a pang of pain in his heart.
Once, Grace looked at him with eyes full of love and dependence, but now, she is defending another man like this.
His heart felt as if it were being pricked by countless needles, causing him unbearable pain and making it difficult for him to breathe.
“Grace, did you really treat me so heartlessly?”
Antonio’s voice trembled slightly, his eyes filled with pain and anguish.
He felt that the person in front of him was getting farther and farther away. Even if he just cut a small wound, she would be extremely nervous.
But now, she treated him as if he were a complete stranger.
Grace pursed her lips.
“Please do not disturb us in the future.”
Antonio’s heart trembled as he looked into Grace’s
determined eyes, but in the end, he unwillingly turned around
