She replied in a mutter, “Yeah, I can’t bear to do it.”
The vegetable beef soup was soon ready. They sat down at

‘Shocked… Yeah, I’m shocked! Grace acquiesced.
Jason said, “Anyone in this world can betray me. Terrence, Uncle Kwan, even Mick, and the other children. But not

past. Was she giving him another one now?
She bent over and kissed his scar with her lips.
“Jay, I’m sorry,” she murmured and got up to leave, not noticing the fingers beside her quivering slightly.
Grace walked out of Reed Residence unimpeded. The security guards on night watch would not bother the mistress
even though they saw her.
