Besides, if the children asked why their father did not come home with her, she would not know what to say.
Thinking of how clingy she had been in the past few days and how impulsive she was in the study today, her efforts for so many days all went down the drain!
It felt so agonizing when you loved someone but they did not believe you!
Grace gave a bitter smile. ‘Did I cause all of this? If I hadn’t hurt him and betrayed him for Mrs. Watts, then maybe he would trust me.
‘Maybe Jay could trust me again if we find out what happened to his memory as soon as possible.’
Grace planned to go back to the old mansion the next day. However, before she got back to the old mansion, her phone rang. It was Lina’s mother calling, and she sounded somewhat anxious.
“Grace, did Lina… contact you?” asked Mrs. Sweeney.
“No, what’s the matter?” asked Grace.
“Well, I accompanied Lina to go to the Municipal Women’s Hospital for a pregnancy check-up today. When we were about to head home, I went to the toilet and didn’t see Lina when I returned. But Lina called me and told me that she met briand and won them, to the asked ve keyra and sha kupari 1

“Did she say she met who the friend was?” asked Grace.
Mrs. Sweeney said, “No. Grace, do you think something happened to Lina? She’s pregnant and was just discharged from the hospital.
“I’ll find a way to see if I can contact Lina. Don’t worry. I’ll call you later. After the call with Mrs. Sweeney, Grace pondered about it and made a phone call, asking someone to help her pull the surveillance footage from the women’s hospital to see which friend Lina had left with.
Although Jason was quarreling with her, he did not remove the personnel he a**igned to her. Hence, she could still request the help of those people as Mrs. Reed.
If she called the police, the police would not bother with her since the adult had not been missing for 24 hours. Besides, Lina had also called Mrs. Sweeney to explain why she left.
The personnel Jason a**igned to Grace was great and efficient. They only took about half an hour before getting what she wanted.
Katherine Jackson!
Grace looked at the footage they sent and instantly recognized the woman who walked up to Lina and talked to her!
Although the woman was wearing a hat and sungla**es, and the footage was not that clear, Grace could still identify her.
What confused her was that Lina followed Katherine Jackson into the car.
‘Lina knows Katherine Jackson almost killed her and the baby in her belly. The police are looking for Katherine Jackson as well. Katherine Jackson is dangerous.
‘How could Lina get into Katherine Jackson’s car? What was Lina thinking? Or… did Katherine Jackson tell Lina something?’
However, the personnel reported that the surveillance footage only captured the car driving out of the women’s hospital before pa**ing two blocks and then going into an alley. The alley did not have any surveillance cameras, so they could only pull some surveillance footage from nearby shops. The process might take a while.
“Keep looking for her. We must find Lina no matter what!” said Grace.
On the other hand, Jason was in a video conference with the company’s senior executives, who fearfully gave presentations. They were afraid that one of them might accidentally piss off the boss again.
However, Jason was absent-minded. He hardly slept last night, not because he did not want to sleep but because he could not.
It was as if the bed was cold without her.
Whenever he closed his eyes, what she said last kept repeating in his ears… “Jason, believe it or not, you’ll never meet another woman who will love you more than I do!”
It… was as if he was possessed!
Jason put down the pen in his hand and felt indescribably tired. He closed his eyes slightly, raised his hand, and gently rubbed his brow.
‘Don’t think about what she said! Don’t give it another thought! Don’t believe her either. Because once I believe it, I’ll only keep being a loser. Then I have to worry about her betraying me again sometime in the future!
‘If you have no expectations, then you won’t be disappointed or in despair!’
He said to himself. However, her voice seemed to ring in his ears again the next moment.
“Jason, believe it or not, you’ll never meet another woman who will love you more than I do!”
“That’s enough!” he snapped immediately.
Everyone in the video conference instantly shut up, and no one dared to say another word.
In particular, the senior executive who was giving his presentation turned ghastly pale. He thought there was something wrong with his report.
Terrence quickly whispered to Jason, “Young master Reed, what are you…”
Jason opened his eyes, came back to his senses, and realized that he had lost his composure just now. “That’s all for today. Let’s end the meeting,” said Jason as he turned off the video conference screen, got up, and walked out of the study.
He wanted to get some air outside to get rid of the voice that rang in his ears from time to time. However, once he got outside of the house, the air seemed to be filled with her voice.
“Jay, Jay…
expression, he continued, “Later, our people noticed that Young Madam drove away in an unfamiliar car, so they called Young Madam but she said she wanted to run some errands alone. She also asked us to put aside the ingredients she prepared in the kitchen yesterday that she initially planned to cook for a meal with you.”
Jason narrowed his eyes. “Did she prepare anything yesterday?”
“I’ve checked with the kitchen but Young Madam didn’t prepare any ingredients,” said Terrence.
‘In other words, she made something non-existent sound so real. She also mentioned my name…! Jason’s eyes gleamed.
‘Is something really wrong? Is she asking me for help in this way?’
Jason immediately said, “Have someone check her driving route. Do it secretly. Don’t let anyone find out!”
“Yes,” Terrence answered quickly and hurried away.
Jason felt uneasiness all over him… ‘Is she… under Katherine Jackson’s control?’
