Now, another man wanted her to tie his tie. How long would she be with him?

Grace did not know. Even though they liked each other now and he did not care that she could not bear children, she did not dare to think about their future together.

The difference between them was so big. Even if they were dating now, could they have a future together?

“What’s the matter?” His voice broke her trance.

“Nothing. Bend… Bend down,” she said.

It was a bit difficult because of their height difference.

He bent down obediently, bringing their faces closer together.

She gently raised his collar, then slipped the tie around his neck and began to tie it for him.

“You know what? I’m putting my life in your hands right now.” Jason’s voice rang softly.

Grace’s fingers paused suddenly, her almond-shaped eyes fixed on the face close to hers.

was charming and elegant. “The only woman who can tie my tie is you. No one else.”

When Grace reached the small restaurant, she still had Jason’s smile in her mind, as well as his words… No one else… could ever tie his tie…

It did not matter whether his words would come true in the future, but at least for now, he was serious about her. Unlike her, who dared not think of their future, he… had probably thought of it.

At half-past one in the afternoon, the restaurant received an order of 20 sets of fast food. It was a little far from the small restaurant. It would take about 40 minutes to get there and back.

When Grace went out for the delivery, she found out that there was a shooting there and it was the staff who ordered the 20 sets of fast food.

It was the film crew’s break right now. Many people were either standing or squatting or sitting on some small stools to eat their lunch.

Of course, most of these people were extras or some ordinary crew members. The main cast would get better treatment- they had a separate room to rest in.

Grace put down the order and was about to leave when one of them stopped her. “Hey, why is there a bug in this

Grace took a closer look and sure enough, an unknown bug was lying in the lunch box. She immediately frowned. It looked like he had not started eating it yet. He only just opened the lid.

She had entered the kitchen earlier and saw the chef packing each meal.

Each lunchbox was packed in a separate plastic bag. It would be impossible for a bug to fly into it on her way here.

In that case, it was highly likely that…

Sure enough, what he said next covertly confirmed her speculations.

“How about this? We’re not looking for trouble. Give us back the money for the 20 sets of fast food, plus 5,000 dollars in damages. After all, some of us have already started eating the food you delivered. Who knows if there are bugs in the rest of those lunchboxes?”

As the man finished speaking, several others got up and surrounded Grace. They were trying to give Grace some pressure.

Grace looked around. They were at a semi-open space that was being rented for the shoot. There was a surveillance camera on the front left from where they were at right now, but she had no idea if it was turned on.

Further ahead, a few fans were blocked off by a gate and squatting. Some were resting while the others were holding their phones up to see if they could catch a glimpse of their idols.

“Well, it’s not up to a delivery girl like me to decide. Let me talk to my boss about the situation,” said Grace as she fumbled for her phone. She called Kyla Corbyn to tell her about the

As Grace did not put the speaker on, those around her did not hear what Kyla Corbyn said.

“All right,” replied Grace as she ended the call and put her phone away.

However, when she put it away, she stealthily turned on her phone’s recording function.

“Well, when are you paying us?” asked one of them. He looked like the leader.

Grace chuckled and said, “Do you know that 5,000 dollars is a big amount in fraud? If there’s a sentence, you could be looking at up to three years in prison.”

The people around Grace immediately took on a ghastly expression. “What do you mean? Are you saying I’m committing fraud?”

“Whether you’re committing fraud can be proven with the evidence. Look, there are a lot of fans with their phones. up around here. Maybe someone accidentally took some pictures. Besides, this order can’t be free of charge. As for the lunchbox in question, we can leave it to the police to investigate. That’ll be fair to everyone.”

The crew looked at each other, and the leader glared at Grace as he said, “I’m warning you, you’d better get your boss to pay us. Otherwise, your restaurant can think about closing down.”

“Is that a threat?” Grace asked.

“I am threatening you, so what?” the man said bluntly.

By now, it was clear to Grace that these people had been trying to blackmail them from the start.

“I’m just an employee. There’s no need for you to threaten. me. As for this lunchbox, you can keep it for the police, and…”Grace paused and looked at them coldly. “If you’re going to do something irrational with a small restaurant like. ours, I can tell you that we’ll sue you. By then, it won’t be just 5,000 dollars.”

She knew that Kyla Corbyn was not rich. Nelson’s cochlear implant, in particular, needed a lot of money. Even if he had. cochlear implants in the future, she would need to spend on some training courses to teach him how to speak.

When Grace opened her mouth to warn these people, she had already made up her mind to go to Jason for help if necessary.

She did not want the small restaurant that Kyla worked so hard to run to be messed up by these people.

Perhaps it was the so-called ‘sense of justice’ in her body that had begun to rise again. After all, did she not become a lawyer in the hope that justice could be served?

When she was done talking, the men’s faces took on a ghastly expression. Then, one of them looked around, looking apprehensive.

Just as Grace was about to leave, one of them suddenly grabbed Grace by the arm, trying to stop her from leaving.

The man pulled so hard that Grace dropped her phone, making it fall to the ground.

Someone saw her phone screen in the recording interface and cried with a ghastly expression, “She’s recording, Boss!”

“F*ck. How dare you pull such a stunt?” One of them became so enraged that he raised his hand to hit Grace, forgetting that he was out in the open with the cast’s fans around him.

Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise all around. Grace closed her eyes subconsciously and raised her hand in an attempt to block his falling hand.

However, the cries of surprise seemed to change a little. There were gasps and exclamations, but Grace did not feel pain. Instead, she felt a hand on her shoulder, drawing her toward a slightly cold embrace.

Grace opened her eyes and saw a handsome face with sharp edges. However, the man’s usually indifferent face was now a little angry.

“What’s going on?” Brian’s voice was horribly cold as he grabbed the hand that was about to hit Grace.

The man’s forehead broke out in a cold sweat. He was feeling as if his hand was about to break. However, what frightened him more than the pain in his hand was the man in front of him.

This was… the crown prince of the entertainment industry!

As for the scene before him, could it be that… the crown prince was trying to help the delivery girl?

The others who were with the man quickly stepped forward and said, “She’s just a delivery girl, Master Hart. There was a bug in their food. We just got desperate and… Uh, it’s no big deal, no big deal.”

All these people wanted to do now was to get it over with.
