Chapter 28
Grace was shocked for a moment. She hadn’t expected that, besides the Hawthorne’s place, there could be a second place where so many photos about her were stored.
“You…” Her gaze towards him was somewhat indescribable.
When he realized that her thoughts were starting to wander, he gently tapped her head.
“Dumb.”
“A one–time love at first sight cannot be considered anything. The Kaufman family has always been cautious when selecting a partner.”
The first time I fell in love at first sight, I didn’t even admit to myself that I was smitten. But after encountering you time and time again, I finally admitted that I had fallen for you.
At this point, Antonio paused for a moment, unable to hide the intense love in his eyes.
Grace’s eyes instinctively dodged, she licked her dry lips and asked, “And then what?”
“Afterwards…”
He recalled the countless coincidental encounters in the past, and his repeated attempts to get closer, but all of them ended in vain.

don’t know, because you always had three childhood friends by your side, and your eyes couldn’t hide the concern you had for them.”
“So, I gave up on expressing my feelings to you. Fortunately, after the ninety–ninth chance encounter, I got out of the car and proposed to you.”
As he spoke, Grace could only feel some fragmented memories piecing together in her mind.
Someone as outstanding and excellent as Antonio, she had seen so many times, it was impossible not to have any impression.
But every time she glanced at him a few more times, Alden, Drake, and Bryce, who were by her side, possessively blocked her gaze, making her eyes only have the three of them.
Originally, in a place she was unaware of, there was someone secretly loving her.
Grace threw herself into Antonio’s arms, holding him tightly, deeply moved.
“Antonio, we never separated again.”
“Okay, we will never separate again.”
The smile on Antonio’s face could not be suppressed at all.
However, it is completely different from the warmth ove here.
The Hawthorne’s place was eerily quiet.
Alden, Drake, and Bryce didn’t know how long they had been sitting in Grace’s room, and the room was completely silent.

Once upon a time, the princess who used to be adored by them, also fell into the mud because of them.
However, she struggled and got out of it, not needing them anymore.
Even they didn’t know how to salvage it.
They did not understand what they had done wrong.
Haven’t they already explained many times that their feelings towards Arianna are only based on gratitude and pity, without any other emotions?
Why was Grace still jealous?
The doorbell downstairs rang several times, Bryce impatiently ran his hand through his hair and went downstairs to open the door.
“Arianna? How did you come here? Weren’t you supposed to be taking care of Elyse at the hospital?”
Although somewhat impatient, he still stepped back and let Arianna in.
Arianna choked on the words that were about to come out of her mouth and finally said, “Mom is fine, I was just woed about you guys, you were in such a bad condition that day.”
“Have you not had a proper rest for several days? I will supervise you to eat and sleep well so that you can take care of your health and have the energy to apologize and admit

your mistakes to Grace.”
With that, she naturally walked into the room and entered the kitchen to start cooking.
She grew up living with her mother and was influenced by her from an early age. As a result, her natural skills are also quite good.
But this time, her real purpose for coming here was not to cook.
