Chapter 856
“I… I really like you. I… I know I’m useless. I can’t provide you a lavish lifestyle, but I can accompany you every day. I can do everything I can to protect you. If you’ve
know you
never tried, how do you know
can’t
develop feelings for me no matter how
long it takes?”
He was stuttering. He was so anxious yet
so earnest.
Grace’s nose felt a little sore. It turned
out that there was someone who liked
her so much.
It was not for any other reason. He just
respected her no matter how destitute
she was.
She did not push him away. His hug felt
very, very warm.
It was because of this warmth that she hoped that one day he could meet a woman who really loved him!
“Chase Harper, thank you for liking me, but even now when you’re holding me, I feel nothing for you. Do you think it’s necessary to try?” she said.
In her ears came the sound of his silent
breathing.
A black car was parked not far away. The man inside looked at the pair embracing each other in the car ahead while his hands on his lap tightened…
The night was dark.
Grace was already asleep in her bed in the quiet room, but the light by her
bedside was on.
Ever since moving out of Reed Residence,
she began turning on the light when she
slept at night again.
The soft light fell on her face, making her
sleeping face seem serene and gentle.
Suddenly, the door of the rented house
was gently pushed open. A figure
entered the house and closed the door
behind them.
The light fell on their body, reflecting the gloom on their face.
Jason walked to the bedside step by step, looking at Grace who lay fast asleep on
the bed.
The scene he witnessed today repeated before his eyes again and again.
He met the man Chase Harper when she was still working at the Sanitation
Service Center. Unexpectedly, she was
with that man again now.
‘She… even let the man hold her.
‘Does she know that when I saw that, I
kept asking myself why she didn’t push him away? Why?
‘Is she… attracted to that man?
‘Is that why she’s willing to let that man hold her like that? Would she… date that
man someday? Would she let the man kiss her? Would she… marry that man and have children with him?’
At the thought of these possibilities, an acrid feeling spread across his chest,
accompanied by a feeling that left him
breathless.
“Is this the man you’re going to use to
forget me?” the cold voice murmured.
However, the sleeping woman made no
answer.
Jason stared down at the sleeping Grace.
After a long while, he bent over to her
cheek as if he wanted to get a closer
look.
“Don’t like other men, okay?” he
muttered.
He was the one who had kicked her
away. He was the one who wanted to
break
up with her, and he was the one who wanted to stop loving her. However,
he could not accept it when he saw her
being so intimate with other men.
He was conflicted.
Meanwhile, she was still in a deep
slumber.
His line of sight moved from her eyes
to her nose bridge, lips… Almost
uncontrollably, he moved closer and
closer to her, trying to take in her scent.
“Um…” Her pink and tender lips
unconsciously opened, muttering
something in her sleep. It was like a fuse that made Jason tremble suddenly.
