Chapter 83 Go Home and Keep Dreaming
At this time, there was the sound of a top–notch sports car engine.
Out of the crowd of expensive cars, a sleek, royal blue sports car stopped in front of Grace and Zoey.
Caleb’s right arm was still in a cast, and he got down from the passenger seat. “Gracie, I’m here!”
Grace looked worriedly at the cast on Caleb’s right arm. “Your arm hasn’t fully recovered yet, and you’re already running around.”
She had come back to the country secretly in order for Caleb to continue recuperating in Frenda, but he had still followed her here.
“It’s because I missed you! Since my injury is fine, how could I not come back to accompany you?”
Caleb glanced at Benjamin and snorted coldly, as if indicating that this was his territory. He motioned to the chauffeur to give the keys to Grace and said, “You’d better drive today.”
“You still trust me?”
Grace looked at the key in her hand with a hint of hesitance in her eyes.
In the nights following the car accident, she would occasionally jolt awake from nightmares. She had dreamt that Caleb had died and that she could never see her family again.
It was all because of Yvonne!
“Of course.” Caleb bumped Grace with his shoulder. “It’s all in the past.”
“It’s a good chance for me to try out your new car.” Grace smiled lightly.
It was all in the past. She didn’t believe that Yvonne would dare try it a second time. Grace was in control of her own life, and she wouldn’t lose to a little trauma.
Before he left, Caleb looked at Benjamin with a cold, stern expression that he had never shown
before.
“Watch out for that mistress of yours. Don’t let her do whatever she wants.
“If Grace had insisted on handing over this car accident business to the police, we wouldn’t have been afraid to settle this ourselves.”
Benjamin felt frustration surge up inside him, and he suddenly shouted to Grace, “When the baby’s born, I’ll leave Yvonne!”

Seeing that Grace had no reaction to that, Benjamin was still unwilling to give up. “When that time comes, could you forget about all this? Let’s start again–”
He hadn’t even finished when Grace suddenly stopped. Benjamin’s heart skipped a beat.
Had she been waiting for him to change his mind?
Grace turned and walked toward Benjamin with a smile on her l*ps. She raised her eyebrows and ruthlessly stomped her foot down.
Her sharp stilettos pierced through Benjamin’s shoe, and she ground down on his foot mercilessly.
“Does it hurt?” Grace stared at Benjamin. “Are you awake now? Go home and keep dreaming!”
Benjamin bore through the pain, a hint of disappointment flashing across his knitted brow.
So it had all been in his imagination. The long periods of neglect and hurt couldn’t be forgiven and forgotten with just a word from him.
Grace pulled her heel out of his shoe and left with Caleb and Zoey. “Let’s go!”
They had just sent Zoey back home and were on the way back to Lewis Manor when Caleb said
his arm hurt.
Grace was anxious and immediately began heading towards the hospital.
They entered the emergency department, and after checking Caleb, the doctor said that it was due to fatigue.
Grace felt reassured. It was natural to be exhausted after such a long flight.
Afterward, the emergency doctor pulled open the curtain on the bed next to them and said bluntly, “It’s just normal fetal movement. There’s no need to make a fuss.”
Yvonne touched her stomach with her slender hands, her expression relaxing.
“As long as it’s fine.”
After she had been exposed for her role in the car accident, Benjamin’s attitude toward her had
become much worse.
This child was her only hope.
“Gracie, shall I avenge you?” Caleb looked at Yvonne on the next bed as he smiled cryptically.
Here? Avenge her for what?
Grace had her back to Caleb and hadn’t noticed the person beside them.
Yvonne felt eyes on her. When she looked up, she saw that Grace was standing opposite her,

Thinking about Grace’s victory that night, Yvonne stood up challengingly. “Grace! Give me my grandfather’s thumb ring back!”
Grace finally realized what Caleb had meant. She didn’t want to give Yvonne any attention and took Caleb’s arm, ready to leave.
“I’m talking to you. Didn’t you hear me?” Yvonne hurried over to block Grace’s path.
