Back at Grace residency on another side of the world, Mason swiftly went into their bedroom. He noticed that Grace was busy as usual doing something on her laptop. He looked at her once and then hesitated for a second. He did not know how to start the topic. He took a deep breath and tried to control his racing heart.
"Grace, do you have a minute? We need to talk," Mason finally opened his mouth and said.
"Is Tina back from her vacation?" Grace asked without even looking at him.
From her tone, he could clearly feel the scornfulness and contempt. He was ready to face her wrath but he could not let his elder daughter, Dina suffer in his wife's hands.
"Bring my Tina back home, then we will talk," Grace muttered.
"About Tina…" Mason stopped and looked at Grace with pleading eyes.
But she didn't lift her head even now from the laptop and continued to treat him as if she didn't like to look at his face.
