Chapter 296 – The Scarlet Vengeance: Justice of a Framed Beauty Novel (Grace & Jason)

Posted on December 17, 2023December 21, 2023 by admin

Filed To Story: The Scarlet Vengeance: Justice of a Framed Beauty Novel (Grace & Jason)

“You’re her, aren’t you? Why else would you look like her… Why… Why are you the only one who gives me that feeling…”

he whispered as if the person he had been looking for had just appeared in front of him.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about. But you’d better let me go now, or…”

“Or what?” He broke into a sarcastic laugh. “I’ve let go so many times. I should never have let go!”

The shop owner was completely dumbfounded right now. She had no idea what the man and woman in front of her were trying to do.

Grace could only feel his arms hugging her tighter and tighter. His voice even sounded like there was a lump in his throat.

“Brian, you’ve made a mistake. I’m not the one you’re looking for!” said Grace. She recalled what Jason had told her earlier, that Brian was looking for a girl.

“If you’re not her, why did you choose this dress?” he muttered.

She put on the dress and made him feel as if he had seen what the little girl would like when she grew up. It was as if she was standing in front of him in a floral dress, smiling.

This scene seemed like something he had only seen in his dreams.

“I just like the dress, there’s no other reason!” said Grace.

However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not break free from Brian.

Right now, Brian seemed dead set on her. He held her tightly and kept saying, “Tell me you’re her, the one I’ve been looking for! Do you know how long I’ve been looking for you? How much I regret letting go of your hand?”

She was almost choked by his embrace.

“I’m not… Not…” she said with difficulty.

Just as Grace thought she might faint from lack of breath, a sudden gust of force yanked her out of Brian’s arms. The next moment, she heard the pow of a punch in her ear. It was followed by a muffled snort, the sound of heavy objects. falling, and the crash of chairs and shelves.

Grace took a deep breath. Then, all she could see was Jason’s face.

It was Jason who had yanked her out of Brian’s arms! Grace stared blankly at Jason who was standing beside her, wondering why he was here.

With a gloomy face, Jason stared at Brian who had just been. punched to the ground by him.

Brian was now leaning uneasily against a row of shelves, surrounded by the mess from his crash.

Blood trickled down the corner of his lips. It was obvious that Jason’s punch had not been light.

“Do you know what you’re doing?” asked Jason with a ghastly pale face. His voice was as cold as the bone-chilling wind, and the mere sound of it would make an average person tremble.

However, Brian met Jason’s eyes with a smile on his face. “I know.”

“You know? You still did it when you knew? Do you want to turn the Hart family against the Reed family, Brian?” Jason said condescendingly.

Brian wiped the blood from his lips and slowly stood up. “Jason, you know I’ve been looking for someone, don’t you? Grace could well be the one I’m looking for.”

Jason’s pupils constricted suddenly. He stiffened in an instant. “What are you talking about?”

However, instead of answering him, Brian looked at Grace who was beside Jason. “You really don’t remember? You once saved a boy while wearing a similar floral dress. You could have left him behind, but you insisted on carrying him on your back and finding him a way to live! You wanted him to trust you, to believe that you could carry him down that hill.”

Grace looked at Brian in confusion. She did have a floral dress when she was a child, but she had no memory of what he was saying.

“That’s enough!” yelled Jason as he yanked Grace behind him.

Things were getting out of his control, and he was caught off guard by the speed. The man Grace loved right now was not Brian, but…

“Why, are you afraid? Are you afraid she’s really the one I’m. looking for?” said Brian as he stepped closer.

Jason pressed his thin lips together and stared at him with cold eyes.

He knew Brian was right. He was indeed afraid!

He was afraid Grace would find out she was the one Brian.

had been looking for… He was afraid she would find out the truth he had been keeping from her.

Grace felt her hand hurting as Jason was holding her with much force.

He held her hand so tightly that it… began to tremble. It was as if he was silently telling her of his panic.

She never thought that his hand would tremble like that.

Taking a deep breath, Grace raised her other hand and grabbed Jason’s trembling hand.

His body suddenly shuddered. He turned to look at her in surprise. There was too much emotion in those dark, amorous eyes that she could not understand.

“Let me talk to him, Jason,” she said, holding his hand firmly as if to comfort him.

Jason looked at her without moving. His thin lips were pressed together tightly.

He was hesitating. He was hesitating because he did not know what to do.

Grace took a step forward and walked out from behind Jason. He did not stop her.

She looked at Brian who was a few steps away. “I’m not the one you’re looking for. I have no impression of what you just said, so I think you’ve mistaken me for someone else!”

Jason’s eyes glistened as she spoke, while Brian’s face looked incredulous. “That’s impossible, you… Forgot, didn’t you? Did you forget because it was so long ago?”

“I’ve always had a good memory. I don’t remember anything.

like what you just said ever happening. If I really do look like the little girl you remember and if the dress I chose today looks familiar, I can only say that it’s all coincidence,” said Grace.

Brian’s thin lips were almost pursed in a straight line. His phoenix eyes were staring straight at Grace.

Grace met his eyes without flinching. After all, she was telling the truth.

After a long time, Brian looked away. “I’ll find out for myself whether or not you’re her!”

With that, he left the clothing shop.

He had always thought that she was not her, but today, when she put on the floral dress, he suddenly felt that it was her…

If it was not her, why did she make him feel so strongly toward her? Why… Did they look so similar?

Maybe he should have checked Grace out in the first place!

Grace suddenly felt as if Jason was holding her hand tighter.

“Jay!” said Grace as she looked up at Jason who was beside her. His expression was now full of solemnity. He was so grim. that it was a little scary. “What’s gotten into you?”

Her voice snapped him out of his trance. Jason heaved a long sigh of relief. The seriousness and solemnity on his face. gradually disappeared. “Nothing,” he said. Then, he took a wad of money out of his wallet and gave it to the shop owner. “Take this as compensation for the loss here! I don’t want a fourth person to know what happened here!”

The shop owner took the money, and her eyes widened in surprise. Rather than calling it a loss, her shop only got a little. messy where the chairs had fallen over. There was no real loss.

The money looked more like hush money.

Jason took Grace’s hand and got straight into the Bentley outside. The shop owner looked at the car as it sped away, then at the money in her hand.

Um… The three people who visited her shop today were probably not ordinary people. It seemed that she had better not say anything.

In the car, Grace could not help exclaiming, “My electric bike is still parked over there!”

“I’ll get someone to take the electric bike back to the restaurant later,” said Jason.

“But…” Grace paused. “Where are you taking me now?” He was not driving in the direction of the small restaurant.

    Suspense!
    Hopefully its not Grace that Brian is desiring/looking for years. Maybe what he could do is to have a visit to Grace’s grandmother place. From there he may see the girl he was looking for.
    Regarding the former firm where Grace had worked, hopefully she will be hired and help her reverse her case.
    Thanks for updating the chapters.

    Thank you for releasing these interesting chapters. At first, I believed Grace would confirm Brian’s story about the past. It is good to see that she has no memory of having had an encounter with Brian in her childhood.
    I sincerely hope it stays this way as I hate to see Jason suffer another emotional heartbreak.
    Evelyn must have released the photos of Brian and Grace simply to get back at Grace. Unfortunately for her, she’d suffer greatly for this as Jason wouldn’t spare her.
    I hope the person Brian is looking for is Grace’s cousin so that the blooming love between Jason and Grace fully blossoms.
    Please release more stories soon. Thank you.

    I think Grace have selective amnesia and it could be the incident causes the trauma reason why she forgot about it, I don’t think it is the cousin since the dress only Grace have it which if im not mistaken mentioned previously plus the song Grace knows the song Brian played in loop in the car so definitely not the cousin. Very interesting, everyone is on edge with these chapters. Thanks for updating.

    Well done for the update of the chapters kindly increase the number of the release chapters please as the chapters are shorts well done once again.

    I guess the real goat here..is not her cousin stella it’s Gracefully. I love the story of Jason and Grace but Jason has more secret on Grace and it will not be healthy for Grace if she find out the secret Jason is keeping from her.
    Grace is the real person in question between the incident and Brain. Cuz after the incident Grace fall ill with high fever and was taken out of her village to Emeiral city to her parents for treatment. so during this period Grace might have loose her memory of the incident doe.and Jason knew about it.thats why his afraid of Brain all the time when ever he sees them together with Grace. but it won’t be long for Brain to find out about the secret Jason has been keeping about Grace. and it will really get nasty for them( Jason and Brain) I no if gets to no the real truth he will not give up on her (Grace) cuz Jason can’t really keep the secret forever. Can’t wait to see how the Drama will end between (Jason and Brain) Cudos to the Author…well scripted writing really love the story

    Where does Brian get this sense of entitlement that he owns the little girl? Yes she might have saved him as a little boy but that does not mean he ia entitled to her. He must just move on with his life and let those that are happily in a relationship be.

    I really do not understand why evil people would always think their misfortune is caused by innocent people that they hate. Evelyn is typical here!
    Brian should grow up! Love is never forced! How can he have a mind of being with a girl later in life at such a tender age? He should go looking for Grace’s cousin Stella and leave Grace and Jason alone.
    Talking of Jason, I pity him. There are two secrets he is keeping from Grace. They are both like a bomb waiting to explode. How will Grace handle them? Will they still be together?
    Please update quickly! Very interesting story line. Thank you!

But i also feel sorry for Brian, but since that was in the past I believe he can just let go of the past and live the future since is the crown Prince he can always find another girl, but for Jason he real came a long way with Grace, how he was ready to live in a rented apartment with her, from nothing even though he is guilty of causing accident of Jennifer if not mistaken, but he real earned her love with much difficulty.
    I real wish in the end they will end up together.
