Chapter 373


    Allison bit her lip so hard it started to hurt. Only when a coworker called her name did she snap out of


    it, murmuring a “thanks.” She grabbed some food from the convenience store and left.


    It was clear in her mind now. Grace had been at Epic Entertainment with Penelope that morning.


    Almost every morning, Grace would be there. Her sudden copse must have had something to do


    with Penelope.


    She hailed a cab and went to the building’s lobby. The two receptionists were engrossed in their TV


    series.


    Allison put on a pair of sunsses from her bag. let down her hair, and walked straight up to them. The


    receptionists didn’t even notice her, still hooked on their show.


    Allison lightly tapped the desk. One of them looked up. “Ms. nagan, you’re here.”


    “Yeah, I have a question for you,” Allison said. “What time did my nannye here three days ago in


    the morning?”


    “Just a moment, let me check the records.”


    Two minutester, the receptionist said, “Ms. nagan, your nanny Grace arrived at 9:16 a.m. three


    days ago and left at 11:20 Is there anything else you need help with, Ms. nagan?”


    “No, that’s it.”


    Allison turned around and left.


    The receptionists went back to their show. “Hey, didn’t Ms. nagan just leave? Why is she back


    again?”


    “Who knows? Can’t figure out these rich people. Never mind her


    Allison’s suspicion was correct. Grace’s sudden copse was rted to Penelope.


    Penelope and Leah had really crossed the line! She had been trying to give them space, but they


    messed with her mom! Were they trying to back her into a corner?


    She stepped out of Epic Entertainment, the sun shining brightly. She raised her face, a golden halo


    appeared before her eyes.


    She closed her eyes.


    After two minutes, she opened them, her sight bing clearer. Her fingers clenched then released.


    Even with the sun on her she still felt a chill down her spine.


    Suddenly, a st of a car horn. “Honk-Allison snapped out of it.

    “Are you blind? Watch where you’re going!”


    She realized she was standing in the middle of the road, and cars were passing her on both sides. A


    ck Audi stopped just a meter away from her, the driver obviously pissed.


    She apologized, “Sorry”


    She moved to the sidewalk, took out her phone, and decided to dial a number – Lucian’s number.


    The call went through after two rings. The man sounded tired like he just finished work. “Hello.”


    “It’s me, Allison.”


    The man obviously knew it was her, he replied and waited for her to speak.


    Allison asked, “Does your offer still stand?”


    “What offer?” He squinted slightly, pretending to be oblivious.


    “The one where… Allison bit her lip, her lips pale. “Where you said I could be your mistress”


    She continued, “You said you would fulfill all my requests, except marrying me!”


    “Of course.”


    Hearing his deep reply, she closed her eyes, her eyshes trembling. “Are you free tonight?”


    “Why, have you made up your mind?*


    “Yes.” Allison had made up her mind.
