Chapter 772
Perhaps Grace was really tired after a
hard day. After eating some food, she fell
into a deep slumber.
Jason sat on the edge of the bed, staring gloomily at her sleeping face.
She lay still as if she would not go
anywhere, could not go, and could only
remain in his sight.
She was right in front of him, but why did
he feel like he could not hold on to her?
‘Today she said she won’t regret it, but why… do I think she’s regretting it? I don’t
think she meant what she said!’
The scene of Brian carrying her on his
back was like a scene in a movie that
kept rewinding, replaying in front of his

He had never been so afraid! It was as if
all he feared was coming true!
“Does Brian really mean nothing to you?” he murmured, his fingers softly touching
her closed red lips.
It was naturally impossible for her, who was asleep, to give him an answer.
“Jason, even if you do fall in love with someone in the future, I don’t want you
to fall too deeply or put your life in their
hands.
“Jason, do you know what cowardice is? It’s when you hate someone, but you
can’t even bear to hurt them in the end.
“Jason, don’t learn from me. Don’t be like me! It’s too painful and hard. You can’t
even control your life…”
His father’s voice rang in his ears again
and again.
‘Control… I’m supposed to control
everything!
‘I’ve trapped her by my side and have her firmly in my hand, haven’t I?’
“Grace, did you betray me?” His voice rang again, but he did not know whether he was asking her or himself.
‘I’m not my father, and my fate will not be
the same as his!’
Suddenly, he got up, went to his original room next door, and pulled open one of the drawers. There was a photo of
her in a floral dress and the little silver bracelet he had taken from her grandmother’s
mementos.
It was the same as the silver bracelet Brian had. They were originally a pair.
‘I’ve tried so hard to keep them from
recognizing each other, but did it work? Or maybe it’s just… His eyes grew darker.
When Grace woke up the next day, it was already after ten in the morning. Jason
was not in the room.
She pulled back the covers, got out of bed, and washed up. The bruises from yesterday were mostly painless today,
and the bruises on her wrist had faded
by now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked at herself in the mirror. She had a deep sleep last night and felt very
comfortable.
Perhaps it was because she had sorted out the doubts about her memory and let
those matters go!
‘Today’s my birthday! Jason promised to
make me a cake today!
Grace’s mood brightened again at the
thought.
‘I’ll surely enjoy my birthday today. It’s my first birthday after getting out of
prison.’
When they put on the candle, she would make her birthday wish. ‘I’ll wish him
peace of mind and for him not to get
hurt anymore. I’ll wish that I can grow
old with him.’
After washing up, Grace changed into a
