‘If she really betrays me one day, I don’t know what I would do.
Maybe… I’ll destroy her too!’
When Grace woke up the next day, Jason was no longer in the room.
She frowned when she thought of how he made her promise never to betray him last night.
He might seem strong, but he was more insecure than her.
‘Maybe when we’re spending time together, I should say more I love yous to make him feel more secure?’ thought Grace.
Suddenly, the reminder alarm on her phone rang.
Grace looked at the schedule on her phone and got up.
She almost forgot that she had made an appointment with the psychiatrist with the last name Leng today.
She quickly washed up and left for the hospital.
What she did not know was that when the tip of her foot had just stepped out of Reed Residence, someone was already reporting her whereabouts to Jason.
“Young Master Reed, Miss Cummins has left the house,” said
Terrence in the president’s office.
Jason lowered his eyelids, his long black eyelashes quivering slightly. “All right, I got it.”
After that, there was absolute silence.
However, Terrence’s body shivered. Young Master Reed was so quiet that he only found it… Dreadful.
Grace got to the hospital, took a number, and soon met Dr. Leng.
She was a 40-something female doctor and was a little chubby. Her smiling eyes gave people a sense of familiarity that made people let down their guards easily.
Perhaps, people who looked like this were more suited to be psychiatrists.
Grace sat down and told her about her symptoms, and that her dreams seemed to be happening more frequently recently.
Especially… After meeting Brian at the fair, she started having these dreams again.
“It’s highly possible that it’s amnesia. If it’s just as you said, it happened because someone else has told you the same thing. As you put yourself into it at night, it’s unlikely to keep on happening. Probably only once in a while at most,” Dr. Leng said analytically.
‘Amnesia… Although she had speculated about this possibility herself, hearing it from a professional psychiatrist made her heart sink.
‘If the dream is really my memory, then Brian and I…!
“Miss Cummins!”
Dr. Leng’s voice interrupted her thoughts.
“Sorry, I got distracted.”
“If you want to know if it’s your memory, then indeed, hypnosis is more appropriate. After all, as you said, you’ve had a lot of continuous dreams, and the contents of these dreams can be very convenient for me to guide you. With luck, you’ll be able to recover your memory,” said Dr. Leng.
“That’s… It?” Grace was stunned.
Dr. Leng said with a smile, “Your case is really simple because you already have a series of dreams, so you just need a little guidance. Of course, if it’s not amnesia, I’ll look for another cause of your illness.”
After a pause, Dr. Leng added, “If you’re in a hurry to recover your memory, I can do a hypnosis session for you tomorrow.”
‘Tomorrow?’ Grace felt a sudden surge of unease from the bottom of her heart.
As she walked out of Dr. Leng’s office, she was a little dazed.
‘I can solve the problem that has been troubling me…
Tomorrow?’ It was so fast that she could not believe it.
However… She was suddenly a little afraid.
Images of Brian persistently grabbing her hand and asking her who she was and Jay’s lonely figure that stood in front of his father’s memorial tablet flashed in front of her eyes.
‘If I’m really the little girl who saved Brian when he was little, how should I face this fact?
‘Is there going to be any trouble with Brian again?
‘Would Jason be upset? I was even thinking about how to make him feel more secure before I went out today.
‘What about Stella?’
Grace sat in a chair in the hospital corridor, her mind in turmoil.
Not far from the hospital, Jason sat in the back of a black car parked in the shadows while he stared at the hospital’s main entrance.
‘When will Grace come out?
‘She had already promised me that she would never betray me, but why did she go see a psychiatrist?
‘Does she still want to restore her old memories of Brian?’
Jason watched quietly, and finally, a figure in a white dress came into sight.
‘It’s Grace!’
Even though she was surrounded by a moving crowd, he recognized her instantly.
Then, he saw her take out her phone and seemed to be making a call.
Moments later, his phone rang. He pulled it out and looked down at the caller ID-‘Sis’
Even though he no longer called her that, he had not changed the name on his phone.
Perhaps it was some kind of reminiscence. The woman had once said to him with a smile, “Will you be my brother?”
She even said, “From now on, you matter to me and I matter to you.”
‘Sis… Sis…’
Back then, he did not know that this woman would make him fall in love with her so deeply.
As the phone continued to ring, Jason pressed the answer button and listened to her clear voice. “Jason, where are you now?”
He looked at the figure in front of the hospital from afar and answered, “I’m in the office right now.””
“I’ll come and see you later. It’s not time to have lunch yet, right? I’ll bring lunch over later. What would you like to eat?” she asked.
“Anything will do. Just buy as you please.”
“All right.”
The figure in front of the hospital put away her phone, raised her hand, and began to hail a taxi.
Jason ordered the driver blandly, “Go back to the office.”
Grace bought two sets of lunch and two apples before going to Reed Group’s entrance.
Although Grace had created quite a buzz on the internet, her chances of being recognized were not high. Not many people in Reed Group knew her because some news about her was removed instantly.
However, this did not include the security guards and the receptionist at the building’s entrance.
After all, when she was a rider at the small restaurant, she came here every day to deliver food to Jason, so the security guards and receptionist were familiar to her.
Therefore, upon seeing her, the security guards and the receptionist immediately greeted her, but in a more deferential manner than usual.
The receptionist also escorted Grace to the elevator and helped Grace to press the buttons.
It was only when Grace got into the elevator and the doors. closed that the receptionist breathed a great sigh of relief.
“Who was that woman? Why are you so respectful?” A pa**ing employee came up and asked.
“The future mistress of the company. Tell me, could I disrespect her?” replied the receptionist.
Of course, Grace, who was in the elevator, did not know what the others were talking about. When the elevator doors re-opened, Grace got out and walked in the direction of the president’s office.
She was unimpeded all the way. After all, the people on this floor knew that she was the person their boss treasured dearly. Who would dare to stop her?
When Grace pushed open the door to the president’s office, she could only see the tall figure standing by the French. window that overlooked the skyline of Emerald City.
Grace suddenly found that the image in front of her was almost like a poster. He simply stood there as if he had the entire Emerald City under his control.
However, it was true that he did have the ability to rule Emerald City.
