When Antonio was brought to the police station by the police car, the flashlights of the media almost turned the scene into daylight. Those moments that used to be glorious in his eyes now became sharp blades that pierced his eyes.
He sat in the interrogation room, disheveled, facing the cold questioning of the police and the overwhelming news coverage from the outside. No matter how eloquent he was, at this moment, he could only remain silent.
“The heir of The Kaufman Group tracked his fiancé late at night and she was arrested.”
Exposure of the Feuds of Wealthy Families. The Marriage Farce of the Golden Boy and the Jade Girl.
“The Kaufman Group’s stock plummeted, shaking investor confidence in the capital market.”
The news headlines on the screen were heart–wrenching, as the company’s stocks plummeted one after another due to his scandal. The Kaufman family found themselves in an
unprecedented crisis. His parents were furious and publicly pleaded in the news, even dialing Grace’s phone countless times.
“Grace! You can have whatever conditions you want, just spare Antonio! He’s still a child!” Ingrid sobbed on the other end of the phone.
Grace simply responded, “Auntie, don’t waste your time,

Antonio and I were already over.”
“Grace! Even if it’s just based on our past relationship,” Kayden Kaufman tried to persuade her.

But Grace calmly and distantly interrupted, “The bond from the past, you tore it apart yourselves. I have work to do, goodbye.”
She hung up the phone, set her mobile aside, and focused on the company acquisition plan in front of her.
Antonio stayed at the police station all night and was eventually released due to lack of evidence. However, when he walked out of the police station, he was surrounded by a crowd of reporters waiting outside.
“Mr. Kaufman, why did Ms. Grace call the police?”
“What impact did your arrest have on the company?”
“Is it true that Ms. Claire’s case is also related to you?”
Antonio remained silent for a long time, and finally said in a low voice, “All of this was my fault.”
A few days later, Grace’s company officially announced the acquisition of the Kaufman Group shares. With her decisive leadership and outstanding abilities, she quickly gained applause and respect from the market.
And on that evening, when she got off work and returned home, she once again saw Antonio standing at the door.
He looked haggard, with bloodshot eyes, as if he had t^en standing here for a long time.

“Grace…” he spoke softly, his voice choked with undeniable emotion, “I know I don’t deserve your forgiveness. But I still want to say, I’m sorry.”
Grace looked at him, her gaze calm and without a hint of wavering. “Antonio, do you think your ‘sorry‘ can still change anything?”
Antonio lowered his head, tears silently streaming down his face. “I know I can’t change anything. I just… I just wanted you to know that I regret it. I never truly appreciated you, but now, it’s too late for everything.”
Grace gave a faint smile, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. “Antonio, I no longer care about your regrets. I have my career now, and I have the company of my mother and friends. My life is already good. As for you…”
She paused, and her tone suddenly turned icy, “you were like a nightmare in my life, and I have woken up. So, I hope you don’t appear in my life again.”
Antonio’s body trembled slightly as he lifted his head,
wanting to say something more, but Grace gently raised her hand to stop him.
“We ended it.” She said, turned around, and walked into the house, closing the door without hesitation.
Outside the door, Antonio stood in the darkness, not leaving for a long time. His tears flowed silently, his heart filled with regret and pain.
Inside the door, Grace sat by the window, looking up the night sky.

The starry sky was still shining brightly, but her heart had long ceased to be swayed by anyone. She smiled gently as if
letting go of her past.
She knew that from this moment on, her future belonged to
her alone.
