“Me? I’m fine. It’s just that…” she was speaking when she felt his hand pause. He was looking past her at somewhere behind her.

Grace froze. Then, she turned around and found Brian’s car parked not far away. Brian was looking in their direction  through the car window.

‘Is Jay looking at… Brian?’

The thought had just flashed through her mind when she instantly felt his hand around her waist.

“When did you meet Brian?” His voice rang silently in her ears.

“At a party the other day.” When she finished speaking, he had taken her hand and hurried into the hotel.

Grace let out a low cry and was instantly pulled into the hotel elevator by Jason.

“What’s your room number?” he asked.

She gave him the floor level and the room number. Then, his finger pressed the elevator button.

When the elevator doors closed, she looked at the person before her as the air pressure seemed to drop.

“Jay, I can explain if you’re misunderstanding something,” said Grace. She did not expect Brian to follow her taxi.

Jason’s dark peach blossom eyes looked at her as he gently said, “What misunderstanding?”

‘Did he really not misunderstand?’ She was doubtful after looking at his expression and feeling the low air pressure around them.

When the elevator doors opened, he took her hand and walked quickly out of the elevator to her room door. “What’s the password?”

She obediently gave him the password. The next moment, the door opened and he took her into the room.

“If you’re not having a misunderstanding, why are you…” His lips were pressed against hers before she finished speaking.

The kiss was so intense that she could hardly react and could only take it passively.

He pressed her body against the wall with his arms pressed on the wall, trapping her in his arms.

All she could smell was his scent.

She had no idea how long it took before the kiss was over.

“I didn’t misunderstand. I know you love me and won’t have anything to do with Brian.” His cold voice rang in her ears somewhat hoarsely.

She looked up at him. Her face was reflected in his beautiful peach blossom eyes. His long black eyelashes fluttered slightly, while his sexy thin lips were under his straight nose bridge… However, there seemed to be a touch of unease on his beautiful face.

“Are you feeling uneasy?” she asked in a mutter.

Shock flickered in his eyes before understanding took over.

‘Yes, she probably knows me better than anyone in the world. How can she not see that I’m feeling uneasy?’

“… Yeah.” The word escaped from his thin lips as an acknowledgment of his unease.

She raised her hand and gently pressed it against his cheek. Her warm hand rubbed against his cheek sentimentally.

“Jay, since you know I won’t have anything to do with Brian, why would you feel uneasy? What can I do to make you feel reassured?” she asked. She would do anything to reassure him.

“Maybe I’m afraid that you would one day sympathize with him and have pity on him. Or maybe because we were separated for five years, after all. Even though you’ve come back to me, I still find it hard to believe sometimes. I’m afraid you’ll leave me one day,” he whispered.

Grace knew that his unease stemmed from his childhood. The trauma was buried in his bones and blood. Besides, she had returned to his side for only over a year.

Maybe it would take time for him to feel at ease.

Maybe she could only reassure him after five years… ten years…

or even 20 years.

‘But at least he has learned to trust me and my feelings for him! That’s progress, right?’

Grace smiled at the thought of it. “Maybe I have sympathy for Brian, but I won’t feel reluctant to part with him. I only hope Brian can find someone to share his life with, and…”

She paused and stood on her tiptoes to seal a kiss on his lips. “Jay, I’m not leaving you again. I’m tied to you for the rest of my life.”

She told him again, even though she had said it to him many times before.

His eyes glimmered, and she pushed him onto the couch nearby.

His tall body fell onto the couch while she pressed herself on top of him. She smiled as she stared at him. “What’s the matter? Don’t you believe me?”

“I… believe you,” he said hoarsely with a twitch in his throat.

Ever since he knew that she was willing to give her life to save him, he knew that this woman was the person who loved him the most, just like she said!

How could he not believe her?

“Good boy.” She lifted her hand and touched his face again. ‘His skin is perfect. It’s smooth and delicate like it has always been.’

Jason blushed. Her statement reminded him of how she praised their children.

Looking at the flush on his face, she was startled. Then, she narrowed her eyes even more. “Wow, how cute!”

“…” He was instantly speechless.

“Hey, your ears are red! Jay, what should I do? You’re so cute!” She could not help taking his face in her hands and kissing him hard as she spoke.

Jason was conflicted. Although he enjoyed her kisses very much, why did her present state remind him of how she kissed the children?

It was just like how she would call Jasper and Mick cute before picking them up and kissing them. Of course, she also kissed Mason while holding him like this, but Mason always looked expressionless after being kissed-unlike Jasper and Mick. One would kiss her back while the other blushed.

“Do I look like a kid to you?” Jason asked.

Grace froze before immediately realizing why he said so. Then, she instantly said, “No way!” She said as she kissed him on the lips, “I wouldn’t kiss a kid like this, and… you’ve never been a kid to me.”

“But didn’t you think of me as a little brother?” he asked.

His words brought back memories from long ago. Grace could not help feeling nostalgic as she thought of the past. “Yeah, I thought of you as a little brother at the time. Because I had you by my side, I had the urge to live a good life. It was a pretty good time.”

Back then, she had been overwhelmed with tears and pain while constantly in tears.

However, if she had not taken him home, treated him like a little brother, and treated him sincerely, perhaps none of this would have happened.

“Speaking of which, you haven’t called me ‘Sis’ for a long time. I want to hear you call me that again,”

she said.

“Do you really want to hear it?” he asked.

“Yes.” She nodded. “Come on, be good, Jay. Call me that.” She was like a strange woman trying to trick innocent children.

He was instantly between laughter and tears, but his thin lips gently spat out the word he had not called out for a long time, He called her ‘Sis’ with endless tenderness and longing. It sounded so beautiful.

Grace felt as if her heart filled with something.

“Jay, I love you.” Her fingers gently unbuttoned his shirt…

Brian drove his car back to his residence.

He kept recalling the scene of Jason pulling Grace into the hotel.

Jason could be with Grace so openly, but he could only look at her from afar.
