Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Novel

Seeing Tessa cry so pitifully , Grace felt her own heart ache . She stepped forward , pulled her into her arms , and gently patted her back in comfort . " Don't cry . No matter what you decide , I'll support you . " Though Grace wasn't good with words , she loved her daughter deeply . " If you don't want to keep looking for him , I'll call my people back . Whatever you want , I'll do it . " Hearing that , Tessa grew even more emotional , unable to find the right words . She hugged Grace tightly , her voice choked . " Mom , you're really the best . I know what you mean to me now .

From now on , whatever decisions I make , I'll always discuss them with you . " Grace felt gratified . " That's my good girl . " Here , the scene was warm and harmonious . But on Julian's side , things were clearly not going well at all . He glanced back at the people relentlessly chasing him , his expression so dark it could almost drip to the ground . At first , he thought they were just sent to make a show of it . But soon , Julian realized something was off .

He had been dodging their pursuit , but then , for some reason , the group seemed to receive new instructions and began dispersing one by one . 1 The tense urgency from before was gone . Seeing this , Julian stopped running . He went from tense flight to standing still , watching . When he was certain they had truly left , he stopped hiding . Still , he couldn't figure it out - what was going on with them ? Were they really not after him anymore ? Or had they received new orders to leave him behind and let him die slowly instead ? The thought sent a shadow across his eyes .

Right now , there was no one he could trust . He only had himself . Everyone else was an illusion . That truth was now etched clearly into his mind . Once he went to find Lily , they could leave this place of trouble together . Gritting his teeth , Julian rented a car and drove toward the suburbs . Meanwhile , Grace received the news almost immediately . Jason came to report . " Madam Grace , should we keep following him ? " " Yes . " A cold glint flickered in Grace's eyes . " Keep following . If anything happens , report to me at once .

" The truth was , even though she had promised Tessa on the surface , privately , she had no intention of letting him go . After all , beyond what he'd done to Tessa , Julian had also drugged Aurora . 2/2
