Chapter 22
The moment I stepped into the villa, memories of the past flooded in like a tide.
But at that time, she had no ripples in her heart, only endless
resistance.
Antonio seemed oblivious to Grace’s indifference and led her upstairs.
“Grace, look, I restored your room to its original state,
everything here is exactly the same as when you left,” Jack said. Grace just glanced at it indifferently, without responding.
The arrangement of the room was indeed familiar, but now in her eyes, it was nothing more than a splendid cage.
Afterwards, Antonio enthusiastically pulled Grace into the living room and pointed at the painting on the wall.
“This was painted by our daughter in kindergarten. I purposely brought it here and stuck it up so that we can see it whenever we look up, as if she is accompanying us.”
Grace looked at the painting, the delicate strokes of her daughter’s innocence stirred a softness in her heart, but it was quickly replaced by the pain of reality. She couldn’t hide the disgust in her eyes.
“Antonio, do you think that by doing this, you can make up for the harm you caused us?”

Antonio’s smile froze on his face, suppressing the pain in his
eyes.
He took out an exquisite box and, after opening it, there was a dazzling ruby ring.
“This is the style you have always liked, and it took me a long time to find it.”
“At that time, our wedding ring, I knew you didn’t like it, it’s okay, I found a better one.”
“It was called the Heart of Eternity, and from then on, our love was as eternal as this gem.”
Grace suddenly felt a bit ridiculous.
“Where is there any love left in me? You stubbornly refused to let me go, trying every possible way to keep me here, and still deluding yourself that I love you?”
The sharp blade pierced the heart.
Antonio closed his eyes, then opened them again, his voice calm but his eyes filled with madness.
“Grace, I will do my best to make it up to you.”
“Everything would return to the past, and time would take away everything.”
Grace’s eyes were as cold as ice.
Time takes away everything, but it cannot bring back the love that has been lost. It only makes the hatred grow stronger.
Antonio attempted to put the ring on Grace’s hand, but she

pushed him away.
His eyes darkened.
“Grace, listen, the children will have a bright future.”
Grace’s eyes were filled with hatred.

The ring was worn on her hand, as if a venomous snake tightly
bound her.
Disgusting, it’s really disgusting.
The bodyguard suddenly bent down and said something to Antonio, who had a smile on his face.
“Grace, let’s go and see, those who bullied you will not have a good ending.”
At the entrance of the villa, a ragged woman was bagging, while the security guard tightly restrained her, trying to throw
her out.
When Antonio and Grace came out, the security guard respectfully greeted them.
“Sorry, Mr. Kaufman, we immediately threw her out.”
The woman, however, crawled and rolled over to rush over.
“Mrs. Kaufman, please, let Mr. Kaufman spare me.”
Through her dirty face, Grace could vaguely see the outline of the servant who had once been bribed by Yesenia.
She just lost one of her eyes, and it seemed like one of her legs was also broken.

Grace felt a chill all over her body. She hated this maid, but she didn’t deserve this.
Antonio waved his hand, and the security guard dragged the
woman out.
What happened, Zackery?
Zackery’s sudden disappearance was closely related to Antonio, and she wanted to protect him. She didn’t dare to ask, but now she couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Where was Zackery, after all?”
“What did you do to it?”
Antonio furrowed his brow.
“Zackery? That teacher? How would I know where he was…”
Grace didn’t believe Antonio’s words at all.
“Antonio, stop pretending. If Zackery suddenly disappeared at this time, who else could it be but you?”
Antonio’s face turned ugly.
“I didn’t touch him, I didn’t want to make you sad.”
