My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
However⦠it turned out their relationship was just a âmistakeâ
to her.
The woman he loved most was begging him to let her go. Was there anything more ironic?
âOkay, Iâll let you go.â He heard his voice saying. âWe have nothing more to do with each other after this!â
Neither a lover nor a sister, no relationship of any kind existed.
between them from now onward.
Just like how two horizon lines were only horizon lines.
Brian took Grace back to her rental house. She had not been back for a week, and nothing had changed except for some dust in some places.
Brian said, âYou⦠didnât have to kneel before Jason. I couldâve thought of something else even if you didnât kneel.â
Grace gave a wry smile. âIâll just think of it as payback for him. kneeling before me previously!
Yesterday, Jason knelt in front of her, begging her to love him! Today, she knelt in front of Jason, begging him to let her go!
âBrian, thank you, butâ¦â She paused and looked at his hands with a complicated gaze. Fortunately, Jason did not break Brianâs left hand after all. Otherwise, she would owe him.
more. âYou donât have to do this for me. Really, I told you I have no-â
He interjected and said, âNo feelings for me, right? It may be the case today and tomorrow, but can you be sure that itâll be the same in one or two years, even ten or twenty years?â
Grace was stunned. Brianâs voice continued saying, âGrace, I can wait. As long as you donât fall for anyone else, then I can wait forever.â
âWhat if⦠this goes on forever?â asked Grace.
Brian smiled faintly. âThen both of us can stay single and unmarried forever. Maybe itâs not such a bad idea either.â
She was stunned, not knowing what to say for a moment.
He got up and said, âAlright, you havenât been back for a week. Let me clean up your house.
Otherwise, itâll be too dusty when you sleep at night.â
âNo thanks. Iâll do it myself,â she said immediately.
Brian said, âWhatâs the matter? Do you think I canât clean with only one hand? Even with only one hand, I can do a lot of things.â
With that, he began to clean the house for her. Grace had no choice. She could not stop Brian, so she cleaned the house with him. Soon, the place was finally clean.
She boiled a pot of water and let it cool for a while. When it was warm, she filled a glass and handed it to him.
Taking the water, he suddenly said, âIt seems to me that this is the first time youâve offered me water.â
âHuh?â She froze.
âSo you see, just because something hasnât happened before doesnât mean it wonât happen,â he said.
He had always given. people a sense of indifferent estrangement, but now, he had a rare gentleness when he faced her. âJust like you. Maybe one day, youâll fall in love with me?â
With that, he threw his head back to finish the glass of water in his hand. He said, âDo you want me to send someone to protect you? In case Jason takes you away again.â
âNo thanks.â Grace shook her head. âAfter what he said today, I donât think heâll come to me again.â
Brian stared at Grace for a moment before nodding slightly.

âAlright, itâs late. I gotta go. You can call me any time if something comes up.â
