Chapter 454 His Private World
Xander then said to Peter, "There's no need to hide my schedule from her. Whatever she asks, just tell her the truth."
Shock flashed through Peter's eyes when he heard Xander's instructions. Xander had many connections and rivals from hisyears in the business industry. For safety reasons, his itinerary had always been kept confidential.
Peter had worked for Xander for many years, always in the shadows. He had never appeared in public. But today, Xander hadrevealed his existence to this woman without any reservations.
Evidently, Xander trusted Grace completely.
“Understood, Mr. Fulton," Peter responded, never doubting Xander's decision.
If Xander trusted Grace, he would trust her completely as well.
“Alright, you can go now."
"Yes, Mr. Fulton."
Once Peter left, Xander took Grace's hand. "Gracie, | have some special matters to deal with for a while."Grace had already sensed something was amiss but didn't ask further.
She just nodded, looking up at him. "I understand. Just one thing—don't get hurt again."
"Okay."
Xander gazed deeply at her. Grace's shadow reflected in his eyes, and the air suddenly became somewhat ambiguous.Grace instinctively stepped back, ready to flee. "| should go back now."
Unexpectedly, he caught her arm and said, "It's too late now. It's not safe."
"Huh?"
Grace came to a realization, and her cheeks instantly flushed red. "No, that might not be a good idea."
Xander smiled indulgently, but he didn't intend to cross the boundaries between them. He could feel that Grace was quietlyaccepting him.
He wasn't in a rush.
"You can take the master bedroom. I'll sleep in the guest room. Just for one night. Otherwise, my mom will get mad if | allow youto go home at this hour."
Since he had used Hestia as an excuse, Grace had no choice but to agree."Okay then. I'll go to bed now. Good night!"
Grace turned and ran upstairs as if she were being chased. She rushed into the master bedroom, closed the door, and finallytook a deep breath.
Then, she stretched out her hand to rub her cheeks, feeling annoyed. She scolded herself for running.
Once her emotions settled, Grace began to examine the bedroom in front of her carefully.
