Chapter 383
Grace parted her lips to speak but found herself at a loss for words.
Recalling Anthony's advice, she suddenly proposed, "Why don't you move into my building? If you prefer not to
seetoo often, | can get you the unit above mine. I'm concerned about you living by yourself in that dark
place."
Anthony had been right-given his condition, isolation wasn't a good idea.
On the other end, Ed fell silent, as though weighed down by hesitation.
Grace knew she couldn't simply force anyone into anything.
She drew in a deep breath and said, "Forget it. | won't force you if you don't want to. I'll visit more often when |
can. But you must promise me—if you're not feeling well, you must take your medication. No more enduring it on
your own."
Another long minute of silence followed.
Just when she thought he would end the call, he said quietly, "But I like it when you worry about me."
He enjoyed seeing her helpless, bound by concern for him. The very thought of it seemed enough to make his
heart burst.
Grace couldn't comprehend what sort of twisted tendency this was. Hence, she let out a disbelieving laugh.
"Does my anxiety turn you on?"
He answered, his voice dropping even lower, "Very much. | like seeing you like this, Grace."
She bit down on her lip, too frustrated to even scold him.
Just how had he developed such a personality?

She suddenly laughed while rubbing her temples. "Fine. Callwhen you're sick. I'll cfeed you your
medicine. Happy now? I've already compromised enough. Don't try to push your luck."
At once, his mood lifted-even his voice seemed to grow lighter, soaring with barely contained joy as he hummed
in assent.
After hanging up the phone, she simply flopped onto the bed. Yet not even an hour had passed when her phone
rang once more.
Unexpectedly, it was a call from the gatekeeper. "Ms. Lambert, we've taken Andrea to the hospital. As for Mr.
Liam... he's still sitting in his room. He doesn't seem to be moving at all."
Liam had considered going to see Andrea, but in the end, his fear of Grace's anger kept him rooted to the edge
of the bed.
A throbbing settled behind Grace's eyes. "What's his condition now?"
"Confused, dazed, lifeless."
Grace understood all too well-Liam cared deeply for her. When the entire Lambert family had turned their back
against her, he alone had stayed close, even if he pretended otherwise.
Now, she was confronted with something she simply couldn't resolve anymore.
She sat in silence for several minutes before saying, "Let him be for now. | need stto think."
Once she ended the call, Grace found herself unable to sleep that night. She got out of bed and went to the
living room, her chest tightened by a feeling of unease.
Meanwhile, after regaining consciousness at the hospital, Andrea immediately called Joanne.

No longer able to stay put, Andrea immediately departed the hospital with the intention of finding Carmen.
Along the way, she couldn't help but marvel at Joanne's cunning-how effortlessly she anticipated even the
smallest details.
