“You don’t have to go through the trouble and travel so much.

I’m just going to pay my respects and visit Grandma’s grave. I’ll come back right after,” she said.

“It’s no trouble.” Jason insisted. “Grace, I’ll go because she’s your grandmother.”

Grace’s heart suddenly warmed, and her nose tingled a little. Then, she suddenly put her arms around his waist and buried her face in his arms.

‘Is this what it feels like to be treasured by someone?’

Jason looked at the person who took the initiative to hug him. He gently raised his hand and stroked her hair. “Do you have any birthday wishes?”

‘Wish?’ After being released from prison, the greatest wish she had was to be able to reverse her case, but now, this wish had already come true.

Now, her wish was… “No matter what I wish for, you’ll do it for me?” she asked as she looked at him, raising her head slightly.

“Yes, I’ll go through fire and water to do it for you,” he answered her in great certainty.

“I’ll tell you on my birthday, then,” Grace said softly.

She did not want him to go through fire and water or risk anything. She just wanted him to believe in her, to believe that she loved him, not to be insecure, and not show that fragile, lonely look in his eyes again.

This was because… She would feel bad!

“Sure. Then you can tell me when your birthday comes and I’ll do it for you,” replied Jason.

Meanwhile, Martin Weiss was standing in front of the French window of the presidential suite of a hotel, looking out at the neon-lit night scene. Holding his phone in his hand, he said to Paisley Daniels, who was on the other side of the line, “I’m going to stay in Emerald City for some time and go back later.”

“What’s the matter? Is there something wrong with the merger there?” Paisley Daniels asked anxiously.

For some reason, Martin Weiss sounded a little strange to her, but she could not say what was strange about it.

“No, it’s just something else,” said Martin Weiss, not wanting to go into any more detail.

Paisley Daniels was wise enough to change the subject. “By the way, my parents keep asking me when we’re getting married. My father said this October will be an auspicious date. What do you think, Wenming?”

‘Get married…! Martin Weiss frowned, inexplicably disgusted by the subject.

‘Zoen is the person I chose, so marrying her is a matter of course. However, why is it that what flashes in my mind is the tearful face of another woman telling me that even in hell, we’d never meet again?’

“We’ll talk about this when I get back,”

said Martin Weiss.

Similarly, Martin Weiss felt breathless when he thought of Kyla Corbyn.

After ending the call, Martin Weiss’s eyes fell again onto the brightly lit night scene outside the window.

‘Is Kyla Corbyn somewhere in this night scene?’

The woman had been a nightmare, eating away at his thoughts for years.

He was the winner, but why did he feel no joy? Every time he thought of that woman, he felt a repressed pain in his chest.

‘It’s only by finding her that I can then a**uage this strange feeling.

I’ll find her, and this time, I’m going to banish her from my heart!’

neighbors to come over.

When Grace arrived, the Lu family’s house was already full of people.

Grace came to the shrine to burn

incense. Looking at the black and white picture of her grandmother, her eyes could not help become watery.

That was someone who used to protect her the most.

When she was three to nine years old, Grandma was like her guardian-Sheltering her from the wind and rain, and putting up with all kinds of hardships to raise her.

Grandma had said, “Grace is the most sticks into the incense burner.

First Uncle and Second Uncle took the initiative to strike up a conversation with

Grace with forced enthusiasm. They were caring and attentive to her as they spoke.

Ever since they found out that their niece’s boyfriend was Jason, they had been afraid to offend her again.

Besides, they were also afraid of retaliation by their niece. After all, they had once sent her to be married off to a fool before, so of course they were afraid that Jason would try to settle the score.

Therefore, they were now eagerly pleasing her in their conversation.

indifferent face grow colder.

The way he looked was a far cry from the man who had dragged her into the exit pa**ageway in the hospital and questioned her agitatedly that day.

As if sensing her gaze, Brian’s phoenix eyes darted toward her.

For a moment, Grace’s heart could not help trembling. His eyes… Were indifferent and aloof, as if he was looking at an insignificant stranger.

A strange sense of loss burst out of her heart. It was so quick that she was a little surprised.

‘Why do I feel a sense of loss? Is it because the boy, who had shared hardships with me when we were little, is taking me as a stranger?

‘However… I chose this, didn’t I?

‘Even if I’m the one who saved Brian…

I’ve made my choice. I’ve decided to choose Jay!

‘I don’t want to upset Jay. I don’t want the man who loves me to look so fragile and insecure. Therefore, whether I lost my memories or not, I’m not going to restore anything!

‘That’s it. Keep it that way.

Grace gave a wry smile and lowered her head.

Stella Lindsay, who was standing beside Brian, looked at Grace with hostility.

Then, she looked at Brian with concern, fearing that Brian would act differently after seeing Grace.

If Brian held on to Grace at this event like he did at the fair last time, she would be embarra**ed in front of her relatives and neighbors.

After all, her relatives and neighbors thought she might be Brian’s girlfriend.

Fortunately, Brian only gave Grace a cold glance and stopped looking at her, which made Stella Lindsay feel relieved.

In any case, she could not let Brian find out the tru… She would insist to the death that she was the one who saved him!

After offering the incense, Stella Lindsay walked over to Grace with sisterly affection and said, “Grace, you’re here too. Where’s Jason? He didn’t come with you?”

“He’s coming this afternoon,” Grace said lightly, looking at her cousin. ‘I didn’t know how she convinced Brian that she’s the little girl who saved him when he was little. Is it just because she told him the little boy and the little girl’s experience on the hill?’

Although Grace did not have this mem y of her childhood, in her opinion.

she would not be too specific if she had told Stella about her experiences with the little boy on the hill.

‘Besides, after so many years, it’s a problem how much Sis could remember.

‘Sis cheated Brian just like that. Is Brian so easy to fool? Or is Sis too devious?’

Grace’s gaze made Stella Lindsay feel guilty. It was as if she saw through her or something.

“Grace, I have a few words that I want to talk to you about.” Stella Lindsay pulled

Grace aside into a corner and lowered her voice as she said, “Well… Brian took your hand at the fair last time. What happened?”

She was curious about it, but Brian would not say anything.

Grace said lightly, “Nothing. I just said some nonsense that he seemed to have misunderstood.”
