Chuya Nakahara
Grace feels deep affection and devotion for him.
At first, she didn't trust him when she learned he was involved in crime. But due to her long loneliness, she continued to communicate with him. Despite his sternness and rudeness, Chuya proved to be a caring and understanding person. He was never put off by her almost emotionless nature. He even saw this as valuable to the mafia. When Grace became his assistant, she spent a lot of time writing papers, sometimes forgetting to rest. Then Chuya would take over some of her work and send her off to sleep or simply relax. Of course, she understood that he did this with good intentions, but she still sometimes felt indebted. Therefore, she usually thanked him for his help financially, for example, buying him something tasty as a thank you.
Sometimes Grace wanted to be alone, so she went to the roof of the mafia building. That's where Nakahara found her most often. He never pestered her about the reasons for her sadness. He simply sat next to her and occasionally touched her, like hugging her or stroking her hair. His touches weren't repulsive, like most of them, but rather, in a way, pleasant.
During battles, they always cover each other's backs, but the girl always gets very angry at Chuuya when he takes her wounds. For example, if an enemy shoots at her, he pushes her aside, and the bullet hits Nakahara. After battles, the girl always helps him get to safety and treats his wounds.

Koyo Ozaki
Grace's relationship with her is not only professional but also blood-related. Due to certain circumstances, the girl was forced to leave Japan for a time. At Chuuya's request, Ozaki took on the girl's care. In many ways, Koyou reminded her of her own mother, so she felt at ease with her. In the evenings, when Koyou returned to their hotel room, they would talk over dinner or simply chat. As Grace grew older, her appearance became attractive to men. Many wanted to have her in their beds, something Koyou disapproved of. Therefore, she sternly drove away the annoying men. For Grace, Koyou became a second person, someone she would protect with her own life.

Dazai Osamu
Dazai and Grace used to have a warm relationship. Brother and sister were always there for each other. When Osamu attended important family events, little Grace would always follow her brother around like a puppy. He wouldn't let Nia touch his sister and always protected her. When she was 9 or 10 years old, she overheard her brother and mother arguing. After this argument, Dazai left home and never appeared in her life again. Their next meeting happened after Grace joined the mafia. Then, she got into trouble with another mafia group, whose leader was Dazai. Their meeting was at its friendliest. The girl never forgave him for his cowardly escape, so she remained on edge. Ultimately, she managed to escape and return to the Port Mafia.

Niya and Mori Ogai.
Grace feels nothing but hatred, rage, and fear toward Nia. The sight of this woman overwhelms her with the desire to kill, and with extreme cruelty and desecration of a dead body. In the past, Nia caused great pain to the Lim family. It's safe to say she was one of the reasons Grace ended up in Asiteco Hospital. However, despite her desire to kill, Grace is also deeply afraid of her. She knows how dangerous and intelligent this woman is, and therefore is reluctant to engage in open conflict with her.
Grace has similar feelings for Nia's brother, Mori. She also respects Ogai as the leader of the Port Mafia.
