“Whether or not there’s something wrong with it, it’s always good to be careful,” said Jason. He was nervous about everything when it came to her.
Jason took Grace’s hand and looked down at it as he spoke. Her fingers were just as slender as her figure, but the deformation of her joints was also more obvious because of this.
He felt a fit of pain in his heart every time he saw her hands.
He felt remorseful, regretful, and even helpless.
He was wealthy and could get anything he wanted easily. However, he seemed helpless with her hands.
Even though he had found her many relevant specialists, they concluded they could only relieve the pain in her hands. They could not get her hands to perform delicate movements as easily as a normal person.
If she chose to treat them after a year, he would never forgive himself if anything happened to her hands. He would rather not have his three children than have her hands become crippled!
“Why don’t you continue with the treatment… What if—”
“No!” Grace immediately refused. “The treatment will affect the babies and cause me to miscarry easily. I won’t risk it. I finally managed to get pregnant with these babies, and I’ll see to it that they’re born safely.”
“Even if you can no longer hold a pen or write with these hands, or even hold a gla** of water?” he asked. The anxiety welled up in him just like that.
“Yes,” she replied gently and took his big hand in her palms. “Jay, I’ve already thought of what would happen if my hands became crippled. Speaking of which, my hands were supposed to be crippled back then. I’m lucky to have them recover to the way they are now.”
He looked grave, and there was great pain in his eyes. She had no idea that every word she said now was deepening his remorse.
“Are the kids… that important?” “Jason murmured after a long while.
Grace said gently, “They’re very important to me. Because they’re our children… After they’re born, I’ll give them lots of love. I can teach them to sing, tell them stories, and watch cartoons with them. There are still many things I can do even if I lose my hands.”
His eyelashes trembled slightly as he slowly raised his eyes to look at her. There seemed to be a stir in his heart.
Therefore… she was mentally prepared to sacrifice her hands for the children!
Just like how she was willing to bet on her life for the three little ones in her belly.
‘She would do that for the children?’
“Jay, I want our children to be happy.” Her voice rang in his ears, and she smiled unflinchingly.
“Our children… She’s different from Mother, after all.’ He stared blankly at the woman in front of him. His mother had easily abandoned him and his father because she could not stand being poor.
Even though he had pleaded with her and almost died after getting pushed by his mother, he still could not stop her from leaving.
Jason’s mother only gave birth to him to become a part of the Reed family as the mother of their heir. However, once she found out she could not do so, he became nothing more than an abandoned pawn.
The woman in front of him was willing to sacrifice anything she could for her children.
Children were never pawns to her.
Her eyes were always as clear as water. Even if she had suffered so much in prison, it had never polluted the clarity in her eyes.
It was because of this that… he would love her so much!
Jason suddenly hugged Grace. “I won’t let your hands become crippled. I won’t allow it!”
He would cure her hands even if he had to give up his life!
Grace smiled gently, raised her hands, and hugged Jason back. She was calm about the situation with her hands. “Jay, you don’t have to worry about it! Even if these hands go crippled, you’ll be my hands, won’t you?”
He gave a loud nasal reply, “Yes. I’ll be your hands…”
‘I’ll give you everything you want-no matter what it is!”
Jason had an expert check the prescription prescribed by Dr. Russell. They concluded that nothing was wrong with it and it was indeed suitable for pregnant women.
Therefore, Jason had someone fill the prescription. That night, the medicine was boiled into a decoction and put in a foot basin so Grace could soak her feet.
Jason carefully applied the residue on the backs of Grace’s hands first, especially the joints.
“Is it hot?” he asked.
“It’s alright. It’s pretty comfortable,” said Grace. The medicine residue was a little hot, but it warmed her hands, making her feel comfortable.
Then, he knelt in front of her, took her feet, and soaked them in the foot basin.
The foot basin was equipped with heat retention technology, so they did not have to worry about the decoction cooling down after some time.
The warm heat gradually spread to her entire body from the soles of her feet. The unique smell of traditional medicine wafted throughout the room.
Grace suddenly said, “Jay, can you come with me to my mom’s if you’re free this weekend? I want to tell her about our marriage.”
Even though her mother had pa**ed away, she still wanted to go and tell her mother about the news. Her mother would be happy for her if God existed.
“Sure,” murmured Jason.
When her feet were almost done soaking, he squatted again, took a clean towel to wipe her feet clean, and removed the residue from the back of her hands. Then, he carried her into the bathroom, washed her hands, and carried her out of the bathroom.
“You carry me around so much that it makes me feel as though I can’t walk,” Grace could not help saying.
“It doesn’t matter if you can’t walk. I’ll hold you forever,” he said gently as he looked at her with tenderness in his eyes.
Her heart suddenly began to beat faster. She could not help sighing to herself. ‘Gosh, does he know how alluring the look in his eyes is right now?!
‘Being stared at like that, I can’t help but want to… Uhh… Press him down hard!’
Subconsciously, she quickly lowered her head.
“What’s the matter?” he asked, somewhat puzzled.
“No-Nothing…” For some reason, she began to feel even hotter than when she was soaking her feet in the decoction. Even her face began to burn.
Frowning slightly, he carried her to the bed and put her on it.
“Uhh… I’m going to sleep now,” she said quickly, trying to calm her heart that was beating so fast just now.
However, before she could lift the covers, he leaned over with one hand propped at her side. The other was clasping her chin so that she was facing him. “Why won’t you look at me all of a sudden?
Did I say or do something to upset you?”
Grace blinked. ‘Uh, why would he think that way? Did he…
misunderstand something?’
“No,” she muttered.
