The next moment, Jason hugged Grace from behind. He held her carefully as he breathed in her ears.
âWhat if it were me? Would you forgive me if I did something wrong and cried like that one day?â
Grace laughed. âWhat are you talking about? I was talking about Martin Weiss. Why mention yourself all of a sudden? Besides, you havenât done anything wrong. Why would you cry?â
âI was just asking⦠what if,â he muttered. His lips gently kissed her earlobes.
He was so attached to her and so scared.
Her body trembled, and her cheeks went red. She could feel his lips on her ears. âCome on. Doesnât he know Iâll be⦠easily tempted when he does that?â
She turned around and glared at him with a faint blush.
âWill you forgive me? Or⦠will you be like Kyla Corbyn and how sheâs treating Martin Weiss now?
Whether alive or deadâ¦â He could not go on somehow, perhaps because he was too afraid he would hit the nail on the head.
Since when did he start being so paranoid?

It seemed as if anything related to her would make him less like himself.
Grace only found Jasonâs beautiful eyes seemingly stained with a touch of pity.
At the same time, she had been feeling more and more maternal since getting pregnant. It seemed as if her heart would break to see such a pitiful gaze.
She raised her hands and held his face, saying, âYouâre not really going to cry after doing something wrong, are you? Youâre a father-to-be. You have to set an example. Butâ¦â
She paused and touched his cheeks with her palms, taking advantage of him.
âHmm⦠It feels so good!â
âIâd feel bad if you really do end up crying like Martin Weiss! Perhaps Iâll forgive you for whatever youâve done,â she said.
He stared deeply into her eyes, taking her hand gently and kissing her palm with his lips.
âThen itâs a deal,â he murmured, finally kissing her on the lips.
He loved her temperature, softness, and scent a lot.
If only his Grace could stay by his side foreverâ¦
Grace went to see Kyla Corbyn the next day and asked, âDid you reject Martin Weissâs liver donation?â
âHow did you find out?â asked Kyla Corbyn.
âLast night, Martin Weiss got drunk and came to me, asking me what he could do to make you accept his liver donation. He was drunk and a little delirious. He was crying the whole time,â said Grace.
Kyla Corbynâs eyelashes quivered slightly. Hearing these words now felt as if she were listening to someone elseâs matters.
Whether Martin Weiss was drunk or had cried, it could no longer cause the slightest waves in her heart.
