Filed To Story: The Scarlet Vengeance: Justice of a Framed Beauty Novel (Grace & Jason)

Although Lina had no idea why Brian was there and saved them at such a close call, she had to admire Brian’s courage and decisiveness.

How many people would save others in such a way?

Brian had done it for Grace!

If Lina thought Brian’s feelings for her best friend were only out of interest, then after what happened today, she knew that Brian probably loved Grace deeply.

Lina was impressed with how Brian, when he was covered in blood, had walked up to the pa**enger seat where Grace was and asked if she was hurt.

‘Even a bystander like me was touched. What about Grace? What does Grace think?’

After half an hour, the Hart family arrived. It was Brian’s parents. The hospital director and specialists also followed over.

Mr. Hart and Madam Hart nervously looked at the closed operating room doors as they listened to the hospital’s specialists describing Brian’s injuries and the difficulty of the operation.

Mr. Hart and Madam Hart felt a little relieved when they learned that their son’s injuries were not life-threatening. Then, their eyes fell on Grace and Lina.

More precisely, they fell on Grace.

“You must be Grace!” Madam Hart walked up to Grace and said coldly, “I don’t care what’s going on between you and Brian, but I don’t want to see Brian sent to the operating room because of you again!”

Lina wanted to defend her best friend, but Grace immediately stopped her best friend and silently shook her head to indicate that she did not have to.

Brian had saved her and was sent to the operating room because of it. Madam Hart had already restrained herself by only saying what she did. Even if Madam Hart scolded her harshly, she would have accepted it!

“Alright, we’ll talk after Brian’s surgery,” Mr. Hart said gravely.

Madam Hart then stopped speaking.

Two hours later, Brian was wheeled out of the operating room.

He had two broken ribs, seven stitches on his forehead, and some blood loss, but the operation went well. He would be fine after some recuperation.

Mr. Hart and Madam Hart’s expressions finally looked a little better, and they pushed Brian to the ward.

Grace stood where she was. Lina asked, “Aren’t you going to wait in the ward until he wakes up?”

Grace smiled wryly. If she could, she would also like to go to the ward and wait until Brian woke up, but… “His parents probably don’t want to see me.”

After all, she was the one who had caused their son to be injured!

“Well… Why don’t we come and visit Brian tomorrow?” asked Lina. Brian had also saved her life, so she was naturally grateful to Brian.

Grace nodded. ‘He… should be awake tomorrow. What should

I say to him when I see him?’

She felt as though there was a weight on her chest!

At night, the scene of Brian walking up to her with bloodstains on his face and looking at her anxiously as he bent over her to ask if she was hurt recurred to Grace whenever she closed her eyes.

She owed Brian so much!

Even though she had saved him once when she was a child, he had saved her again and again afterward.

How could she pay him back?

…Could she never pay it off?

Grace asked for two days’ leave from the firm because of the car accident. Early the next morning, she went to the hospital ward first.

However, instead of Mr. Hart and Madam Hart, she saw her cousin Stella.

“Grace, there you are. I heard your and Brian’s cars collide yesterday. It scared me to death. Are you okay?” Stella showed a look of concern, but she regretted that the car accident had not killed Grace.

Stella only knew that two cars collided but did not know that Brian did it to save Grace.

Grace ignored Stella and walked to the bedside. She looked at Brian, whose body and head was wrapped with gauze. She said, “Thank you… for yesterday.” Her voice sounded a little hoarse.

She had not slept much all night, All she could see last night were scenes of the accident whenever she closed her eyes.

She shuddered at the thought of her car accident with Jennifer. She still remembered that feeling of fear.

However, this car accident… did not give her fear, but… a heavy bitterness.

“I just saved the person I love. Why are you thanking me?” Brian said with a faint smile that had a rare touch of gentleness.

Stella jealously looked at the smile on his face. Brian’s smile was for Grace!

“Brian, what saving are you talking about? Didn’t you get into a car accident yesterday?” Stella asked in confusion.

Instead of answering, Brian said, “Stella, I want to drink some soy milk. Why don’t you go downstairs and buy me some?”

Stella could sense Brian deliberately pushing her away, but at the moment, she could not give a reason not to buy him the soy milk, so she could only say, “Okay, I’ll go buy it.”

However, on her way out of the ward, she glanced at the two who remained in the room out of the corners of her eyes. The jealousy in her eyes grew.

‘Grace’s such a nuisance. It’s just like what Evelyn said. I’ll never exist in Brian’s eyes as long as Grace is around!”

Only when Brian hated and repelled Grace and even became so disappointed in Grace would Stella have the opportunity to truly be with Brian.

With this in mino, Stella secretly made up her mind.

In the ward, Grace looked at Brian and asked with concern, “How do you feel? Do your wounds hurt?”

The smile on his lips widened. “You’re finally worrying and caring about me.”

“You saved me. Of course, I care about you!” she said.

“What if I hadn’t saved you?” he retorted. However, before she could answer, he said with self-mockery, “I asked a silly question. But Grace, I’m happy that I could save you!”

His dark phoenix eyes were so serious.

He was badly injured and could have lost his life, but he was happy about it!

Grace’s nose was a little sore. She always heard people saying that the crown prince of the entertainment industry had many girlfriends, but he was too cold.

He was cold to a certain extent that he was heartless.

She had also thought he was a heartless man when she first knew him, but the things he had done made her indebted to him time and again.

“By the way… Why did you drive out at that time yesterday?” asked Grace, chunging the subject.

“I drove to your rental house to see you but saw you in your friend’s car. You didn’t stop, and the route you took was a bit weird, so I followed you. The next thing I know, your car was going to hit that sand truck, so I drove over,” said Brian.

At that time, he had just driven over and hit their car without even thinking about it.

“Didn’t you think about the danger? If you had accidentally hit the sand truck due to inertia and the truckload of sand fell on you, it’d be like being buried alive!” said Grace.

“No.” Brian looked Grace straight in the eyes and said, “I didn’t have time to think about anything. But even if I was given time. to think about it now, I would still make the same choice.”

She was stunned, and for a moment, she did not know what to say.

“Grace, I chose to save you. You don’t need to feel burdened,” said Brian. Those phoenix eyes seemed like they could see through everything.

Grace felt a constant burning in her throat.

More than an hour later, Lina also came to the hospital to see Brian. She also told them that the police had checked the car and found that it had indeed been tampered with.

The brake would not fail immediately, but it would suddenly fail after a while. There would have been a real accident if not for Brian crashing into them yesterday.

“It seems that my car’s alarm randomly ringing these days. may have had something to do with it,” said Lina.

Grace said, “It’s possible. Did the police say anything else?”
