“Really? You don’t need it…” he muttered, suddenly picking her up and moving toward the bed nearby.
She struggled immediately.
“What are you trying to do?”
“Didn’t you just say you don’t need my respect and I don’t have to respect you?” As he spoke, he threw her onto the bed. and tore his collar open with his long fingers.
His expression was calm and even his tone was light, but the way he acted scared her.
He almost had his way with her in this very room the night she was brought there! Now… Almost instinctively, she struggled to get up to get away from the bed. However, his arms were wrapped around her waist again as he pressed her hard against the bed before her feet even touched the ground.
“Looks like I’ve respected you too much. that you don’t know what disrespect is!” He kissed her on the lips as he spoke. It was an almost suffocating kiss that seemed to swallow her whole.
Grace struggled as hard as she could but it was to no avail. When she tried to bite, he seemed to sense it and his fingers immediately grabbed her jaw as well as the sides of her cheek.
She could not move her jaw and could only accept his kiss pa**ively.
He subdued her struggle and resistance. The sheer power frightened her. As his kiss went lower and lower, she trembled almost uncontrollably while tears gushed out inadvertently. Beads of tears fell down her cheeks, and he could taste. something salty on his lips.
He suddenly paused and pulled himself up slowly only to see her face that was full of tears and her slender body that was trembling.
‘She’s scared. Did I scare her?’
He wanted to frighten her to teach her a lesson and show her his kindness.
He just wanted her to know what would happen. to her if he was indeed disrespecting her. However, when he saw her in this state, he felt a terrible heaving in his chest. It was as if he was punishing himself! He raised his hand and gently wiped the tears from her face.
“Alright, I won’t force you. Not now, not ever.”
She looked at him blankly as though she could not believe that he would say such a thing.
She did not expect herself to cry so much so suddenly.
She had told herself that even if she was ‘raped, she did not have to take it to heart.
She would just think of it as sleep paralysis! However… When she was stuck in a situation she could not resist, her time in prison recurred to her. It was the same back then. It was as if no matter how much she struggled, the point inflicted upon her would not lessen. It was as if she was not a human in their eyes but a tool to be kicked and punched and used to get benefits.
Her eyes were still full of tears, and she looked at him through. them. His dark eyes met hers.
“Don’t worry. I’ll keep my word!” It turned out that her tears and fear were heavy to him. It was as if he could bow, kneel before her, and drop all his pride as long as she was less afraid of him! In the hall in the Hart family’s house, Mr. Hart looked at his son.
He had been proud of the child ever since he was born.
He hardly had to worry about him. The only exception was when he was kidnapped.
He managed to escape on his own, get to the hospital, and call the police, but… He had been persistent in searching for someone for so many years. In Mr. Hart’s opinion, his son was great, but he was too persistent about people and things sometimes. For instance, he was too persistent about the little girl who saved him when he was a child. His son had been looking for her all these years that he was almost possessed. Even those. girlfriends had traces of the little girl! Fortunately, Stella, who he later found, was only a vain womon. Brian did not have any extra feelings for her, so he thought he had let go of his obsession! What he did not expect was that his son, who he thought he could trust, had a conflict with the Reed family’s Jason at the charity gala and even got his wrist broken.
“I heard you’ve deployed a lot of people to find out Jason’s.
whereabouts. Or should I say, a woman’s whereabouts?” asked Mr. Hart. Brian said lightly, “Dad, this is my business. Stay out of it.”
“Stay out of it?” Mr. Hart frowned.
“I could stay out of it back when you insisted on looking for someone. I could also stay out of it when you dated those good-for-nothing girlfriends. However, now… You’re looking for this woman. Do you want Jason to break your other hand?”
Mc. Hort looked at his son’s right hand that was still wrapped in gouze as he spoke. What a joke to get his wrist broken for a woman! So what if I broke my wrist? As long as she can be found!” asked Brian.
“You Mr. Hort felt a surge of anger.
Modam Hart immediately went up to comfort her husband and said to her son, ‘Don’t make your forher mod Joson clearly treats that woman differently. Why would you meddle in this?” Although the Reed family had a huge influence in Emerald City, the Hort family was not too bod either. Modam Hort was not afraid to go against the Reed family in her opinion, it was only a woman and she was not the ime girl with whom her son had been obsessed since childhood. There were many people who could take over her place There was never a shortage of beautiful women in the entertainment industry! My son can have any women he wants. Why would be wont a woman jason won’t let go?
“Mom, I have to meddle in this because I’ve fallen in love with Grace!
“What… What did you say?” Madam Hart looked surprised.
It was the first time she ever heard her son say that he had fallen in love with a woman, even though he had many girlfriends before this.
“I love Grace so much that she’s the only one I want! Therefore, I won’t give in even if Jason won’t let go!” Brian said. firmly.
He had let her go again and again. Now, he knew his heart. better than ever! Therefore, he would not let her go again! The one person he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. was… Grace and only Grace! Mr. Hart glared at his son.
“What did you say? Come again!”
“I love Grace. I won’t let go even if I have to face Jason!” Brian said adamantly.
Mr. Hart snapped.
“Are you insane? Are you going to fight against the Reed family for a woman?” He had no idea what position the woman held in Jason’s heart, but from the fact that Jason broke the hand of a member of the Hart family for a woman, he could see that this woman. was probably important to him!
‘Of course, Brian’s hand wouldn’t be broken in vain. Since Jason dared to break it, then the Hart family will have the Reed family pay the price!”
However, that did not mean Mr. Hart would like to see his son compete with Jason for a woman! In that case, the entire Emerald City would bear witness to a huge joke! Brian smiled lightly.
“If I give up just like that, then I think I’d really be insane.”
He would be insane with regret! He did not want to regret it again!
Grace had no idea how long Jason planned to keep her here. Besides, Jason had taken her phone away and she did not have a way to communicate with the outside world.
He did say he had helped her ask for leave from the firm.
‘However, about Lina and Kyla… The thought of Lina possibly worrying about her and Kyla’s case bothered Grace.
It had been three days.
She and Jason were still stuck. together.
She thought of getting out of here by pretending to love him. However… How long could she ‘pretend”? Unless she could keep this up forever, it would end up badly when Jason found out she lied to him.
More importantly, she did not want to use her feelings to deceive his feelings! The mansion was large. The buildings and pavilions inside. were just like those seen in rich and powerful families’ residences in movies and dramas.
There were many lotus-related items there.
For example, lotus porcelains. The pillars and beams also had carvings of lotus flowers. Some antique furniture also had lotus carvings, not to mention the lotus pond in the yard. The lotus flowers here were still in full bloom even though it was already past their season, which was really strange.
