After all, if they had different opinions about morals, it was going to be an arduous road for them. She might as well end things earlier before their feelings became deeper.

She had experienced being cheated on once before, and she did not want to go through it a second time. Back then, Sean Stevens said that he loved her and would protect her. When she got into the accident, he even said that he would find the best lawyer for her.

Yet when she was in the detention center, he told her that he wanted to break up with her!

The man who said he loved her simply watched on as others.

ruined her life.

He even said that what he regretted most was making her his girlfriend. He forgot how he once professed his love for her!

What had she lost from that? Was it love? Or was it the trustworthiness toward any human?

If not for Lina, perhaps she would have lost her trust toward mankind completely.

When she said so, he immediately grabbed her and hugged her tightly.

“We’ll never break up!” His clear voice carried a sense of anxiety and certainty. His arms held her so tightly that she nearly lost her breath.

Grace’s face was plastered on Jason’s chest. Through his shirt, she could still hear his heartbeat. It was strong yet rapid.

“I’m just saying… It’s just a hypothesis. It’s not happening…”

“Not even a hypothesis should exist.” He urgently interrupted her words. Her hypothesis made him anxious as if it would turn to reality at any moment. He felt as if even though he was hugging her right now, he could not completely grab on to her.

“Jay… You… You need to let go a little. I can’t breathe…” Grace could not help from saying.

He loosened his hold slightly but continued to hug her. “Sis, don’t ever tell me that you want to break up, okay?”

He lowered his head. There was a growing sense of distress in his glittering eyes that she had never seen before.

It was as if her telling him she wanted a breakup was something so devastating that he would become lost.

Was she… that important to him? So important that he could not even accept a hypothetical scenario?

Grace felt as if something was stuck in her heart. It made her feel uncomfortable. She could not hold herself back from raising her hands and returning the hug to him.

“Okay, Jay. I’ll never say the word ‘breakup.” This promise was pledged by her just like that.

At this moment, she did not think further about the meaning and price behind this promise. Right now, she just did not want to see him looking like that.

That would just make her feel horrible.

In the afternoon, Grace and Jason returned to the hospital.

Her check-up reports were ready to be collected. Her main issues were from her old injuries. Although those injuries had been healed, whenever the weather turned cold and humid, some of her joints would still ache.

However, according to the doctor, she just needed a long time to recuperate. Her condition would improve. It was not a major problem.

The big headache was the injury suffered by her uterus back then.

The gynecologist told her during the consultation that she needed to go through a series of recuperative care to a certain extent before they could proceed with an operation. Perhaps then they could improve the prognosis of her uterus and she might get a chance to conceive.

“I still have a chance to have a baby?” Grace was excited by that prospect because that was a wish that she had suppressed deep within her heart.

Now, there was hope for that wish to come to fruition.

“We’ll have to see later depending on how well your body recuperates. As of now, you have about a 30% chance,” the specialist told her.

30% was probably low for a normal person, but for Grace, it was a good number.

“Then, let’s start the process.” Jason was the one to make the decision.

After they collected the medication, Grace and Jason finally left the hospital.

“Jason, thank you!” Grace said with reddened eyes.

“Why are you thanking me again? There’s no need for thanks between us.”

“If you hadn’t brought me over for a check-up, I wouldn’t have found out that I still have a chance to be a mother in the future,” Grace mumbled.

Now, there was hope for her to be a mother. She could have someone who had blood relations with her. It was as if she suddenly felt less lonely!

Jason quietly looked at Grace who had some excitement in her eyes.

This seemed to be the first time she was excited not because of her family or friends whom she cared for but for herself.

In the past, she seemed to have accepted fate’s cruel arrangement f

She was shocked. Then, a blush came over her face. “I… I…”

Grace was suddenly at a loss. It was as if answering with either yes or no would both be wrong!

“You can’t say no!” Jason bossily put his hand around Grace’s waist and said to her, “If I do have children, it will only be with Sis, so… If you want to be a mother, you can only be the mother of my children.”

Grace’s face grew redder. “This is the hospital.” There were still people moving back and forth where they were, and there were already people looking this way as he put his arms around her.

“So what?” His lips pressed close to her ears. He was breathing down her ears and neck. “Do you understand what I just said, Sis?”

Her body could not help but tremble. His voice and breath seemed like a spell, enchanting her into nodding.

After getting into the car, Grace’s face was still red.

Jason was driving, and she could not help but glance at him from the pa**enger seal.

From her point of view, she could see his side profile-sharp outlines, deep eyes, and a tall, straight nose that made his face look much more defined than the ordinary Asian. His features, the lines of his jaw, and the lines of his neck all seemed exquisite.

If they had children, what would they look like? The thought instantly filled her mind.

“Do you like looking at me that much?” Jason’s voice suddenly rang in Grace’s ear, interrupting her trance.

“Ah!” She suddenly realized that she had been staring at him in a daze. Grace was embarra**ed and at a loss when her phone suddenly rang. Grace immediately picked up her phone. The caller ID showed that it was a call from her best friend, Lina Sweeney.

She pressed the answer button, and Lina’s voice sounded from the other end of the phone. “Is it convenient for you to talk now, Grace?”

“Yes, sure,” answered Grace immediately. She would also like to thank Lina for calling and saving her from that awkward moment.

“When are you free? Let’s go to S City, but we’d better hurry.

The witness is in custody at the police station right now. Hadwin Stephenson said he has a way to make him talk. He asked if you want to be a part of this,” said Lina Sweeney.

Grace was stunned. “Hadwin Stephenson? You told him that I want to reverse my case?”

“Hehe… Well… I thought he had more connections than I did, so I asked him to help me investigate that You guy to see if he can find any other clues. I’m sorry I forgot to tell you,” answered Lina Sweeney.

“You don’t have anything to apologize for. You’re just helping me,” said Grace. In her opinion, Hadwin Stephenson was not a helpful person, but Lina had probably tried hard to get him to do this.

“When will you be free? I’ll make an appointment with Hadwin Stephenson, but we’d better hurry. That You guy is only being detained for seven days,” said Lina Sweeney.

“Tomorrow, then,” said Grace.
