Chapter 268

There was only one picture in the email. Justin and a woman were in it.
Justin had his arm around the woman’s waist, his gaze gentle.
Grace was stunned.
Immediately after, Louise sent another email.
“After leaving Brian, you want to seduce Justin? Unfortunately, even if he’s just an illegitimate son of the Vance family, his family will never accept a woman like you.” Grace read the text and smiled.
She was glad that Justin was finally willing to pursue another girl.
At that moment, Justin called.
Grace picked up the phone. Her voice could not help but be a little excited. “Justin.”
When Justin heard her voice, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. “You seem to be in a good mood. Go out and eat with me.”
“Okay.”
Carson was playing a computer game. Seeing Grace pushing the baby carriage and going to take Austin out, he took a sip of Coke and asked, “Grace, where are you going?” Grace answered, “Have a meal with Justin.”
Hearing that, Carson put down the coke in his hand and stood up. He walked to Grace, and without a word, he snatched Austin from her arms.
“Leave Austin at home. I’ll take care of her.”
Grace knew what he was thinking and smiled helplessly. “Don’t think too much. Justin has a girlfriend.”
“Huh?” Carson was stunned.
Grace showed him the photo. “Don’t make wild guesses in the future. Justin can only be friends with me.”
Carson blinked. “They’re not married. Everything is possible.”
He pushed Grace out of the door. “Hurry up and go out.”
Before closing the door, he even cheered her on.
Grace went downstairs and saw Justin’s car parked by the roadside. She walked to the passenger’s seat and saw a woman sitting in the backseat.
Her hand paused. A second later, she turned to the backseat, opened the door, and got into the car.
The woman smiled at Grace and nodded slightly. “Hello.”
Her long hair was draped behind her head, with a gentle smile on her face and an elegant aura on her. Justin introduced, “This is my friend, Vivian Greene. She is Grace Sherman I have mentioned before.” Grace turned to Vivian, thinking, ‘The woman in the photo that Louise sent me should be her.’
She smiled at Vivian. “Hello, my name is Grace Sherman.”
Vivian said with a smile, “Justin often mentions you to me. He and I were classmates from elementary school to high school. Since you’re his friend, you’re also my friend. You can call me Vivian.” Grace nodded and asked, “Are you … a teacher?”
Vivian looked at her in surprise. “How did you know?”
Grace did not expect herself to be right. “Really? I guessed. You seem to be from a literary family.”
Vivian said, “I’ve been teaching at Mantos, but I have transferred back recently. I want to be closer to home.”
She was an easygoing person. Unlike Angie’s coldness, she had a peaceful temperament, and it was comfortable to chat with her.
Soon, Grace and Vivian befriended each other on WhatsApp.
When Vivian was chatting with Grace, she would mention Justin from time to time. Every time she mentioned him, her face seemed to be glowing.
Justin also echoed with her gently.
Grace did not know how close their relationship had been. She asked tentatively, “Vivian, you didn’t come back just because you wanted to be closer to home, right?”
As she spoke, she winked at Vivian and Justin meaningfully.
