My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict (Grace) novel Chapter 2656

Chapter 2656 

1/3 

Valda Theller hesitated slightly before stepping into the elevator. 

Brian followed inside and helped Valda Theller press the button. 

for the floor. 

Valda Theller stiffened, and her face paled when the elevator 

doors closed. 

“Can… Can I hold your hand?” Valda Theller said with difficulty. 

She wanted to hold something warm so she could stop recalling 

the scary scenes of what had happened today as well as back 

then. 

Brian looked at the person in front of him. Her face was pale, while 

her round eyes looked misty. There was fear and longing in those 

dark eyes. 

‘What is she longing for? Is she longing to hold my hand?” 

Since he fell in love with Grace, he did not like other women 

touching him. He only touched Valda Theller to put on an act in 

front of Grace. 

However, he did not need to act right now. He could refuse. 

Even so, the fear and longing in her eyes reminded him of his childhood when he almost fell off the cliff. His eyes were also full 

of fear and longing when he almost fell off the cliff.

He was scared that he would fall and longed for someone to help 

him. 

Grace had reached out to grab him and saved him. 

“Okay,” he said slowly as he stretched his right hand to Valda 

Theller. 

Valda Theller’s trembling hand gripped Brian’s hand as if it were 

driftwood. 

Her fear gradually faded when the warmth of his hand transferred 

to her body. 

The elevator soon stopped, and the doors opened. Valda Theller 

and Brian came to Valda Theller’s apartment door. She took out 

the key and opened the door while holding his right hand tightly 

with her left hand. 

“Aren’t you going in?” he asked her as she had been standing at 

the door. 

She bit her lower lip, and her left hand grabbed his right hand a 

little tighter. 

“I’ll stay with you for a while. You need to calm down,” said Brian 

as he led Valda Theller into the house. 

“I’m sorry. I know my mood’s a little off right now. I just… Just…” 

she sobbed.

He added, “You must be afraid. I was careless to have put you 

through this. It won’t happen again.” 

“It’s not your fault. I’m grateful you came to my rescue,” Valda Theller said quickly.

“Why did you call 110 earlier? They probably wouldn’t have 

been able to make it there in time. Wouldn’t it have been quicker 

if you had just called me?” he asked. She would probably have 

been badly hurt had he not gotten suspicious and rushed to the 

washroom after hearing that the way to it was blocked. 

Valda Theller said awkwardly, “I… I figured if I called you, there 

would be only one of you while there were so many of them. I’d be dragging you down. So I thought of calling 110. Uh… Of course, I didn’t expect you to be so tough. They were no match for you!” 

He gazed at her. “But did it ever occur to you that I put you 

through this? Even if I were to suffer with you, I would’ve deserved 

it, no?” 

She blinked. “But if we have to get beaten up, it’s better for just 

one of us to get beaten up than two, no?”
