Chapter 52
Grace put her hand behind her back and said weakly, “I’m sorry, I can’t get an intravenous injection now I–I’m pregnant.”
The doctor stared at her for two seconds before putting the medicine away. “Take some fever medicine. It won’t affect the
fetus”
Grace nodded. “Thank you. By the way, please keep this a secret for me. Don’t tell the police.”
“I can’t keep that kind of thing a secret from them. But don’t worry. If you need to keep it a secret, they won’t reveal it.”
“Thank you.”

The doctor handed her the fever medicine. Before she left, she instructed, “By the way, your forehead is injured. Don’t put on makeup.”
Grace looked at her in confusion. “Makeup? I didn’t put on makeup”
“You’ve applied foundation and loose powder, right? When I was removing the gauze for you just now, I saw a lot of powder in the wound. It looks like the loose powder accidentally got into the wound, causing it to worsen.” After saying that, the doctor did not stay any longer and left.
The doctors words echoed in Grace’s e
Cars
She thought, 1 haven’t even touched cosmetics since I got pregnant. How could there be loose powder?’ She recalled carefully. It seemed that her head had been hurting since yesterday.
Grace suddenly recalled that when she changed her dressing yesterday morning. Louise was also there. She guessed Louise must be the culprit.
Grace felt a chill in her heart. She thought, I can’t go back to the Francis‘ residence.
Early in the morning the next day. Justin’s car stopped at the entrance of the Francis‘ residence
Justin had been going to the hospital every day for the past two days just to ch*ck o race’s injury. However, after waiting in the hospital for an entire day yesterday, Grace did not go there to change her dress…
He was a little worried, so he came over early in the morning.
He waited outside for a long time, but Grace was still nowhere to be seen. He couldn’t help but get out of the car, planning
to knock on the door.
At that moment, Melvin, who was watering in the yard, saw him. He glanced into the living room and saw that neither
Louise nor Ava were there. He hurried over
“Sir, are you looking for Grace?”
Justin nodded slightly. “I’m here to take a look at her injury.”
*Sir, please go and save Miss Sherman! She was wrongly accused of theft and is detained in the police station!”
Justin’s expression changed. “What?”

“I’m not sure where she’s being detained. It should be in this area.”
Justin nodded. “Alright, I’ll go look for her immediately.”
After Grace woke up, her condition improved slightly. After entering the interrogation room for interrogation, Grace was sent to the detention room.
There was only a small window and a bed in the dark room, but Grace felt very p
peaceful.
At noon, someone came to deliver food, which was a meager serving of cold, leafy greens. It was unknown when the food was prepared. There was already a mild sour taste.
There was only
only a remotely edible bread, Grace picked up the cold and hard bread and took a bite. It was tasteless, like
chewing paper.
What flashed through Grace’s mind was Brian’s emotionless look when he faced her and his gentle expression when he faced Louise.
Tears fell on the bread, making it taste salty and bitter.
At this moment, she wished she had never met Brian.
Suddenly, someone opened the door. “Grace, someone is here to bail you out.”
Grace suddenly got up. She wondered, “Who would bail me out? Since I got together with Brian, I’ve stopped associating with other people.‘
Grace was puzzled as she followed the prison guard out. She saw Justin in a white T–shirt standing there anxiously.
Grace suddenly felt a lump in her throat.
