The part-time job that Claire was talking about was to be an extra on a filming set. The job only required her to register her name and leave her contact number, so there was no need to look at any files.
It was 80 dollars a day with lunch included. If an extension was needed for the filming time, they would provide dinner as well, but there would not be any extra pay.
As Claire said, since she was free on her rest days, she could be an extra and earn some cash. It was a job that was paid by the day after all.
One month down the line, if there was something for her to do every day she was off, then in that one month, she could earn a few hundred bucks.
To other people, a few hundred bucks might not be much, but to Grace, it was already really good.
When she left work, Grace glanced at the gloves that she had already finished knitting and made a call to Jason. âIâve finished knitting the gloves. Do you want me to send it over, or do you want to get someone to come over and collect it?â
âIâll just come and collect it, then,â Jason said.
âThatâs fine,â she replied.
She then returned to her apartment. After finishing her dinner, she placed the gloves on the table and pulled out the photocopies of the case files that Lina had given to her. In it, there were transcripted statements from the witnesses at the time, along with photocopies of the photographs of various physical evidence from back then.
Looking at the contents, feelings of shock and bitterness rose in Graceâs heart. Again. None of this information ever made sense.
Among this evidence, there was even the wine bottle and glass that she had drunk from that day, along with her DNA that was detected from the rim of the glass.
It was simply laughable. It was a glass that she had never drunk from, yet her DNA was somehow on it.
But sheâd fully had Eva back then. Her metabolism ran so high, even if she had been drinkingâand she wasnâtâit wouldâve burned through her system.
But the fact remained, she hadnât had a single drop of alcohol that day.
Sheâd argued with Lily over what Lily had done to her grandfather, but she hadnât driven off with the intent of hurting anyone.
Theyâd had an accident, but to try and call it vehicular manslaughter or to pin her with drunk driving just made no sense.
But thatâs exactly what the human courts did.
And then all that evidence turned up, condemning her both in the human world and amid her pack.
Sheâd had no way of overthrowing this evidence.
She did not know who it was who wanted to hurt her like this, but what was the deal with Jennifer Atkinson? Even if they wanted to hurt Grace, it was Jennifer who ended up losing her life! Maybe they wanted to hurt Jennifer but had used her as a scapegoat?
While she was in jail, she could not figure out exactly who it was who had such a deep grudge against her. And trying to delve into Jennifer Atkinsonâs life while Grace was in jail, that had been impossible.
Graceâs phone dinged and she looked at the Messenger group.
It was the Messenger group for background actors that she had just entered today. The group organizer was tagging all of the âextrasâ to notify them about the next jobâs time, location, name of the crew, as well as the number of people needed and the requirements for it.
Grace looked at the date, and she was off that day, so she completed the link to carry out the registration.
Instructions for where to go and what time came through along with a confirmation number.
Putting down her phone, she was just about to do a search on the internet about news related to the show that she was to appear in when someone knocked on her door.
The only person who would come over at this time would be⦠Grace pursed her lips before standing up. She walked to the door and opened it.
As expected, the person that showed up in her line of vision was Jason.
He was dressed in an all-black overcoat with neatly styled hair. He looked as handsome as ever, maybe even more so, now that he made no efforts to downplay his good looks.
The only exception to that was possibly the scarf wrapped around his neck.
That was⦠the scarf that she had knitted for him!
Grace looked at the scarf on Jasonâs neck and was overcome with several emotionsâshock, joy, anger, confusion.
Compared to his full attire of luxurious clothing, her scarf looked so rough and cheap. It was laughable that she had rushed to finish it back then because she was afraid that he would be cold. She had even been pleased with herself, thinking that it was not badly done. In the end, it just looked like a joke.
Now, he was actually using this scarf, giving Grace an indescribable feeling in her heart.
