Chapter 263 | Got Out “Mr. Ziegler, what's on the work schedule for today?” Luke was half a step behind Grace as he reported her schedule.


“There’s an international video conference at 10:00 am. At 2:00 pm, you have an appointment with Mr. Barnes to discuss the project, and tonight at 7:00 pm, there’s Neo Group’s chairman and his wife’s anniversary party-”


“Okay, I’ve got it.” As soon as she finished, Grace’s phone rang from her pocket. “Hello, babe. Are you busy?”


Emily’s voice traveled from the other end of the line. “The client | told you about last time came to the boutique today. It’s the one who spent three million dollars to design a dress. “The client asked for you specifically. Do you think you would have some time to come over?”


Grace pushed the door open to her office and walked in. “When?”


“I've already asked her. Any time before 12:00 pm will be fine.”


“Alright, I’ve got it.”


Emily hung up and took a cup of coffee over to the client. “Ms. Gold, please wait a moment. Our designer will come over soon.” The woman she had addressed nodded slightly and didn’t speak.


At that time, a familiar figure stopped in the shop doorway.


Yvonne had been released from prison that day. The first thing she had done was go on a shopping spree with the card Benjamin had given her.


She had bought a huge pile of clothes, bags, and makeup, and she had even gone to a fashionable salon to get a new hairstyle. She had been walking on thin ice in prison for the past couple of months. No one knew how much she had suffered every day. Luckily, she was finally out.


She looked up at the boutique in front of her, and her gaze darkened gradually. She huffed coldly.


Then, she walked into the shop.


The moment she entered, Yvonne pointed at the new designs on the mannequins and said boldly, “This one and this one. Wrap them all up for me.”


+15 BONUS Emily came up and was about to speak when she stopped in shock. The smile on her face disappeared completely. “Homewrecker Quine, you've actually gotten out!” Emily was vexed and rudely called Yvonne a homewrecker to her face.


Yvonne was furious, but she didn’t lose her temper. She said coldly and sarcastically, “What are you standing there for? Get me the clothes!”


Emily crossed her arms and said, “This shop only serves members. I’m afraid you're not a member of our shop, you homewrecker.”


Yvonne's expression stiffened, and she snorted contemptuously. “Then make me a member.”


As she spoke, she pulled out the black card Benjamin had given her and put it in front of Emily. Without looking at it, Emily said bluntly, “I won't!”


“You!” Yvonne really wanted to lose her temper, but she hadn't forgotten what Benjamin had said to her. She had just gotten out of prison and had no wish to go back there.


“Who cares about these rags? Anyone who buys these is an idiot!”


Then, she took the black card and was about to leave.


However, she seemed to think of something and turned back. “Tell Grace that I’m out of prison. The score between us needs to be settled sooner or later. Tell her to wait for me.”


“Whatever score needs to be settled between us, let’s settle it now.” Grace’s voice rang out without warning. In the next second, she had reached Yvonne. Yvonne looked at Grace, who looked elegant and gorgeous.


She couldn't express the fire of jealousy burning in her. She had been suffering a living hell in prison while Grace was leading such a refined life.


Yvonne’s fists clenched, and she laughed coldly. “Grace, you never thought | would come out, did you?”
