Chapter Twenty-Six - Being Named As Wanted.

GRACE'S POV

Seeing Mr.Weasley on our doorstep, at this night was way too shocking and I was stunned because it was way too unexpected. I invited him in and Sierra immediately got a glass of water. He gulped down the glass.

"Mr.Weasley?" I questioned again. My heart was beating harder and faster. I was trying to urge him to answer my question when he just gave me a pained expression.

"Grace, I'm so sorry for all this but I had no other option. I'm not very proud of what I'm gonna ask, but I have to." His words made my insides churn. It was almost hard to process.

"Mr.Weasley, please come to the point. Riddles aren't working." I almost sounded pleading.

"Grace, Victor has got into a very bad accident." He said and tears fell off his eyes. We all gasped and somehow, I knew how this conversation was gonna end.

"The amount for his surgery is huge. I have to sell away my property, this house. Every ounce of me is sorry, but I need this." I almost fell, if not for Alison. She caught me. I stood straight.

"But, Mr.Weasley, where am I supposed to go? I was robbed just yesterday. I have nowhere to go." I almost begged.

"Grace..." He fell on his knees and held my hand asking for forgiveness and begging me, instead. My heart pained looking at him.

"...for my son, Grace. Please. I'm so sorry. I'm searching for a buyer. I have to sell this place. Just for him. You know me, I'd never do this. I'm sorry." Tears kept falling off his eyes and slowly my eyes welled up.

"Mr.Weasley, it's...okay. I understand. Please get up. Just...just sell it away. I'll move out." I breathed out and I heard two gasps.

"Grace! Where would you go? Grace, have you lost your mind?!" Sierra yelled at me.

"I'll...rent another place. In a cheap area, it'll work out." I said and ran to my room and shut the door; hiding my tears from everyone else.

"Why me?!" I yelled at God who was so busy giving me all the pain in the world. It was too much too handle. Getting robbed and then now getting homeless. I cried my pain, but it didn't lessen.

I walked out of the room and towards the living room. And I was shaken. No one was in place. Something was going on because everyone looked in a deep discussion.

"What's going on?" I asked them. They all looked at me like a deer caught in a headlight. Mr.Weasley composed himself and stood in front of me.

"You have to leave the house now. I found a buyer and he wants the house now itself." My eyes widened. This was way too fast.

"What the...where am I supposed to go this night? And how did you find a buyer this soon?" I asked him. I thought I had time till morning but this was way too sudden.

"Grace, I and Alison are leaving, right now. So, we won't be a problem. And..." Sierra as cut off by Alex.

"And, you're staying with me."

Even after my many protests and denials, Alex was taking me to his place. He was way too stubborn and arrogant.

"Grace, stop being stubborn! Also, it was in the clause you signed, that I can get you to stay at my place for whenever I need you." He said with a smirk. I wanted to punch him, but I kept quiet.
