Grace's face could not help but turn a little red. Subconsciously, she wanted to turn away.
However, his fingers were under her chin the very next moment. "Sis seemed to be watching me intently just now. Why? Do you think I'm good looking?"
She choked. How was she supposed to answer? Should she say that he was good looking? Or that he was not?
Either one did not seem like a good answer! Grace felt her face burning and tried to avoid his gaze, but she was unable to do so.
The servant who was on the side tactfully looked down, but the mere sound of their conversation roused a tempest in her heart.
Young Master Reed treated Miss Cummins differently. Was it true that Miss Cummins would someday be the mistress of the Reed family as some people had said?
However, did Miss Cummins not work as a sanitation service worker at the Sanitation Service Center?
Was it possible for... Young Master Reed to marry such a woman?
...
At night, Grace laid in bed. She was still awake and looking at her fingers wrapped in gauze under the light of the moon through the window. Jason had been changing her dressing himself these days.
He was more attentive toward her than Sean Stevens was when he was dating her, and sometimes, she could not help but be absent-minded for a moment.
If... If he was not Jason and was someone else, maybe she would fall in love with him.
After all, there were few women who would not be charmed by a man who pampered them and was a feast for the eyes.
"It doesn't matter even if they can’t be removed," Grace said. She was happy to trade the scars for half the album.
"You may not mind, but I do," he muttered. The scars on her fingertips seemed to remind him of his mistake.
If he had insisted on going with her to her house that day, she would not have hurt her hand.
"I want Sis to be perfectly fine and not an inch hurt," he muttered.
She was suddenly tempted to laugh. Not an inch hurt? However, she had already been so badly hurt when she was in prison!
"My hand is pretty much healed now. When can I go back to the rental house?" she said, changing the subject.
