Who is My Baby's Father (Edwin and Bertha) novel Chapter 175

diamond ring, she was slightly surprised.

This ring was a gift from Devin before he went on a business trip. He said that although the wedding was postponed, the gesture had to be there. The ring was a symbol of their union.

Grace didn’t know the value of the jewels and thought it was a simple

ring.

It was a very expensive ring? This was something she did not expect from

Devin.

Antonio glanced at the ring, his brow furrowing involuntarily.

Livia smiled at Grace’s confusion. “The ring is beautiful, but it’s on the wrong finger. The ring finger is only for wedding rings.”

Grace responded with a shy smile, “No mistake, this is my wedding ring.”

“You’re already married?” Livia’s face showed surprise.

Grace nodded. “Yes, just a couple of days ago.”

Antonio‘ face darkened instantly. He stared at Grace for a few seconds but ultimately remained silent.

Grace did not understand why he would be upset, wasn’t he so in love with Livia? Why did he care that she was now married to another man?

If anything, he should be happy about this, and even relieved that she would never come between him and his precious Livia.

Chapter 174

Livia’s place was not very big, but to get everything in order for just one person, it made Grace very tired.

She was not going to let her emotions and feelings ruin her

professionalism, so she focused on making sure every corner of the place looked pristine.

The floors were shiny, the windows too, and while they were laughing in the living room, she even made sure to clean the bathroom and fix the

bed.

Once everything was done, Livia saw Grace and Antonio off at the garage, very happy and smiling.

Before leaving, Livia complimented Grace once more, “Antonio, your assistant is very efficient. I’m not very familiar with many things since I just got back. If it’s not too much trouble, could you give me her contact info? I might need her help.”

Antonio, of course, wouldn’t turn her down. He was, of course, nervous about having both of them alone together, but he could not refuse her

request.

“Sure, what’s mine is yours. I’ll send you her contact info later. You can just give her instructions if you need anything.”

“Oh, I will, thank you so much!” Livia responded excitedly.

On the way home, Grace was in silence. In her mind, she was still struggling to understand how her life had changed so drastically in the last few days. Going from being Antonio‘ lover, to just the servant that cleaned for him and his beloved one.

Antonio thought she was angry about what had just happened. He even thought about apologizing for just agreeing to lend her to Livia like an object.

Just as he was about to ask, his gaze was drawn to the ring on her finger, and he chuckled, “Marriage, wedding ring–how long are you going to pretend? Isn’t it tiring?”

Grace sighed and patiently explained again, “I’m not pretending, this is indeed my wedding ring.”

As she spoke, she kept her eyes fixed on the road ahead, which made Antonio uncomfortable, but he did not want to upset her, fearing she would tell something to Livia.

Antonio assumed Grace was feeling guilty and reminded her again. “To me, Livia is different from everyone else. Don’t make any unnecessary comments in front of her.”

His words were a clear warning, but Grace just pursed her lips and said nothing further.

A week before, seeing Antonio care so much for Livia might have sparked jealousy in Grace.

But now that she knew he never wanted her, and she was married, she no longer cared about whom he liked or disliked.

A flicker of helplessness crossed Grace’s mind, thinking of how that one month of work was going to feel like an eternity, and she sighed softly.

In the following days, after friending Grace on Facebook, Livia would occasionally ask her to do some errands.

She asked Grace to handle lost passport issues, contact the police for missing items at home, and even grab theater tickets.

While Grace was busy with work at the Kaufman’s residence, she also had to deal with Livia’s requests, so she got only about four hours of rest each

day.

She tactfully tried to suggest to Antonio that he should hire a professional assistant for Livia.

But Antonio refused that idea.

Grace had no choice but to continue juggling both jobs, and she did her best to remember to eat and sleep only the necessary in order not to waste time and keep both Antonio and Livia happy.

But the truth was, she was sometimes forgetting to eat, or even fix her bed. She was forgetting simple things she used to do for herself, to the point where she almost forgot about Devin too.

So when she received his call, she was caught by surprise.

Devin asked in a gentle and polite tone, “Are you busy? I hope I’m not interrupting. I’m just wondering if you would like to have our wedding in Nelykon.”

“A wedding in Nelykon?”

Grace repeated the words out loud. She knew that the Nelykon hotel wast very elitist and hard to get a reservation

1. al.

Before she could say anything else, the door to the room was abruptly pushed open.

Antonio walked in, staring at Grace with a dark and cold gaze. “What wedding?”

Startled, Grace immediately hung up the phone and stood up. “I was discussing my wedding with my husband.”

Before entering. Antonio had some suspicions. But seeing Grace hang up the phone in panic, he thought she was acting. “Don’t forget to drop me a wedding invitation.”

An invitation? For him?.

Since she had zero experience in such things, Grace hadn’t thought about making invitations.

That also made her remember she didn’t even know who she would invite, and what else was needed to organize. She would have to talk to Devin again about this at some point.

“The invitations haven’t been made yet. Once they’re ready, I’ll give you one.” Grace responded while she fixed her clothes.

“The wedding is in less than a month, and you haven’t prepped the invitations?” Antonio chuckled.

“I’ve been too busy lately, working here and for Livia, and forgot about it.” Grace explained calmly.

Antonio knew she was right, so he just gave a nod with a lift of his chin. “Alright, I’ll be waiting for that invitation.”

Chapter 175

By the weekend. Grace packed her things and left the Kaufman’s residence.

Carrying her suitcase, she happened to bump into Antonio as he was coming home. She wanted to avoid seeing him, but now she had to talk to

him.

Noticing his serious stare, she put down the suitcase and explained briefly. “Mr. Kaufman, since I’m married, I plan to move out.”

Antonio‘ voice was icy. “Don’t make your marriage the topic of every conversation. Do you think I’ll forget? And also, you’re not part of this family, so feel free to move out whenever you like.”

His words hurt her. Where was the Antonio who had made love to her so many times? The man in front of her was not the same.

Grace sensed his anger and didn’t say anything more about the topic.

“Before you ‘move‘ though, I have next week off and will be vacationing in Drakoria with Livia. Make a travel plan for us.

She just nodded, moving her suitcase aside, and walking to his study room where she sat and started to take notes.

From the hotel to personnel, from the weather to preferences, Antonio talked for over half an hour, going into meticulous detail.

Having known him for ten years, Grace was seeing for the first time how much he cared about someone.

Looking at the pages and pages of annotations in her hand, organized in

her head everything she needed to do and who she had to call in order of

priority.

It was not going to take her too long, because she had organized trips for Antonio before, so she had contacts to most of the people she needed to reach.

She took a deep breath and couldn’t help but think of the past.

She knew Drakoria was beautiful. It was a city nestled amidst towering. snow–capped peaks, is a breathtaking spectacle of glistening glaciers and cascading waterfalls.

It was a city of dreams, a place where the beauty of nature meets the vibrancy of urban life, creating an unforgettable experience for its visitors.

Before Livia returned, Grace had mentioned several times that she wanted. to go there and even made it a birthday wish.

She knew about the city’s rich history and famous architecture, which mixed ancient stone structures and modern glass edifices. She wanted to see the popular streets and the malls.
