Chapter 825 It was only when he mentioned Grace that Taya shifted her attention to her. When she saw that chubby girl had suddenly lost weight, her heart ached. She quickly let go of Griffon, squatted down, and held Grace’s small face. “Grace, why have you lost so much weight?”
Seeing her aunt, Grace parted her lips and wanted to say something, but didn’t do so in the end. Seeing Grace with her head down, quietly playing with the doll in her hands, Taya was deeply saddened. “Forced by Casare to play the shooting game and having to witness the death of her father, she must have been overwhelmed, and that’s why she’s become so quiet.” She thought. Griffon braced his trembling body and explained, “She’s been traumatized and needs to see a shrink.” After Casare forced Amon to kill himself, he had also become cruel to Grace. He locked the crying pup inside a small cage in a dark room for the past few days, only giving her a little food. and water. If Griffon hadn’t come in time, Grace might not have lasted more than three days. Hearing what happened to Grace, Taya felt so bad for her that she held her tightly between her arms and comforted. Grace as she patted her back, “Grace, from now on you will stay with me. I’ll take good care of you, and I won’t let anyone harm you ever again.” Grace’s long and curly eyelashes moved slightly, but she made no verbal response. As if her inner world had crumbled, she had turned from a lively, chubby girl into a withdrawn pup.
Seeing her like this, Taya felt very sorry for her. She lovingly held Grace up, and as she rose, she saw Griffon had suddenly put on a heavy coat. Suspicious, she looked at him carefully and saw his face was bloodless. Alarmed, she asked him what was wrong. Griffon held a fist to his mouth and coughed, “It was windy. Probably I caught a cold…” He then pointed his chin at Andre who stood in a daze beside him, “Carry the pup.” Taya wanted to tell him to let her carry Grace, but the little girl struggled to get off her and stretched out her arms toward Andre. Grace was already an obedient pup before this, and now she was even more eager to do what they told her. Seemingly afraid that they would abandon her, Grace didn’t dare to cause them any trouble and had keenly observed them.
