Chapter 1177:
Bess leaned closer to Brenna after sitting down and whispered, “Your whole place just radiates style.”
While her upbringing provided comfort, her family still belonged to the middle class. In contrast, the Harper
hseemed to belong to another world. Each detail filled her with awe.
Dalton soon walked into the living room and glanced at the unfamiliar girl resting on the sofa. “Are you the one
who wants to see me?”
Jumping to her feet, Bess hurried over to Dalton, her excitement bubbling. For a moment, she pinched her arm to
make sure this was all real.
Dalton was dressed casually in a sweatshirt. He looked even more charming in person than he did on television.
“Oh my God, it’s really you! | never expected you to cfrom such a wealthy family!” Bess exclaimed.
“Ill leave you two to talk. | need to go upstairs and get changed,” Brenna said.
After leaving the hospital, Gracie and Elsa made their way back home. Bright lights greeted them inside. Dinner
was ready, prepared by the new chef, and the staff had cleaned the house thoroughly.
The day at the hospital had left Elsa completely worn out. She sat down at the dining table, feeling a bit sad that
Ethan was not home.
Gracie walked over and gently massaged her shoulders. “You must be tired.”

she is comfortable, and running errands—it’s a lot to handle.”
“You really have given it your all. If it is getting overwhelming, you could hire a caregiver,” said Gracie, who had
always been spoiled at hbefore. Whenever her father had fallen ill, her family made sure to have
professionals care for him, never expecting her to do the work herself. But she had helped take care of Elsa’s
mother this time.
Gracie believed she had gone above and beyond for Ethan.
As soon as the food was brought out, the maids left the dining area in silence. Ten minutes slipped by, and there
was still no sign of Ethan. Gracie was disappointed.
Pulling out her phone, Elsa called Ethan. “Where are you right now? Gracie and | have been waiting for you to
join us for dinner. The food is getting cold, and you are still not back!”

Ethan's tone was calm. “I have a business dinner tonight. Go ahead and have dinner without me. | will not be
coming htoday.”
Suspicion had already crept into Elsa’s mind. “Are you doing this to avoid Gracie? How can you be so heartless?
She has done so much for you, looking afterand Belen. You will never find anyone better than her. Just come
back hnow.”
