Regret Came Too Late (Grace and Ethan) novel Chapter 252

Alice quickly unlocked Grace's phone.

She scrolled through to the chat with Ethan, her eyes gleaming with greed. She scrolled through their messages but didn't find anything flirtatious or suggestive between them. Her brows furrowed, and her jealousy intensified.

It seemed like Ethan was still secretly in love with her.

Grace didn't deserve him.

With a smirk, Alice quickly typed out a message to Ethan from Grace's phone. "I want to talk to you about the things you've been hiding from me."

What Alice didn't know was that this message hit a nerve.

When Ethan read it, his grip on the phone tightened. Soon, a follow-up message came through—an address to a hotel not far from the Lambert residence.

He rubbed his temples and replied with a single word. "Alright."

Alice, seeing his quick reply, felt a rush of jealousy, her face twisting in frustration. She was burning with anger and wanted nothing more than to rush back to the Lambert residence to end Grace once and for all. However, she took a deep breath and drove straight to the hotel.

She had the drugs prepared. As soon as Ethan showed up, she was sure he would fall into her trap. She had learned so many tricks in bed, and she was sure he wouldn't be able to resist.

A smug smile spread across her face as she changed into the sexiest outfit she could find. Then, she mixed the drug into the fragrance oil she had bought, knowing that the scent would make any man act like a wolf. Ethan wouldn't be any different.

She waited in the room for what felt like forever. When she finally heard a knock on the door, she immediately turned off the lights.

This room had been carefully selected for its dim lighting so that Ethan wouldn't be able to see clearly. By the time he slept with Alice, it would already be too late. Once she got pregnant, the entire Henderson family would have no choice but to dote on her and her child.

Just thinking about it sent shivers of excitement down her spine.

Alice opened the door but didn't show herself. Instead, she ran into the bedroom to wait.

Alice thought she had a chance. She quickly moved closer and brushed against his legs. "What do you say we spend the night together?"

She gave him a sultry look, but Ethan moved forward and, with no hesitation, kicked her hard in the shoulder.

Alice snapped out of her dreamlike state, pain shooting through her as she trembled.

His voice was cold. "Have you had your fun?"

Despite the pain, Alice refused to let go of the opportunity. This was the closest she had ever been to Ethan.

The man in front of her wasn't the same as the powerful figure in the office. He seemed engulfed by the darkness now—strong, mysterious, and utterly commanding. She had never seen him like this before. It made her body feel like it was on fire.

Ethan was the one worthy of her. Even if she died here tonight, it would be worth it!
