Chapter 394

“It will be. Besides, Kyla, you have a great deal of life ahead.

of you. That’s such a pessimistic thing to say. Maybe it’ll get better in the future,” said Grace.

Kyla Corbyn looked at Grace in surprise. “You seem to have changed a little.”

“Changed?” Grace was confused.

“Yes, when you first came to my store, you seemed depressed, as if life was crushing you down. But look at you now, your depression seems to have dissipated. It’s like you have hope. for the future,” said Kyla Corbyn.

Did she… have any hope for the future? Grace was stunned. Was it because Lina was helping her look into the case? Was it because… there was a new beginning between her and Jason?

That night, when Grace came out of the small restaurant, she saw a car parked not far from the restaurant. It was Jason’s car!

She stepped forward. The door was already open. Jason was sitting in the back seat as he said to her, “Get in.”

“I’m going back with the electric bike, or it’ll be a lot of trouble for me to come here tomorrow morning,”

she said. Who asked him to live in a place where his family owned so much land and property that there were no buses nearby? It was a long way from Reed Residence to the bus stop.

He looked at her with a smile as if he had heard a joke. “I’ll send you here tomorrow morning.” With that, he took her by the hand and pulled her into the car.

Grace was a little speechless. Considering that she only earned 4,000 dollars a month, how could she take a Bentley to and from work?

It was like when she saw the news about driving a BMW to sell oranges.

“When did you arrive?” asked Grace. She was looking for a topic to talk about so that the atmosphere in the car was not too awkward.

Although she was dating Jason, she did not know how to get along with him.

“About half-past six?” he answered.

She was shocked. Half-past six? It was already nine o’clock, which meant he had been waiting outside for two and a half hours?

“You just waited in the car?” She looked at him in shock.

“Yes,” he replied, taking her hand and gently rubbing it in his.

Although the weather was starting to warm up, he seemed to like the way it kept his hands warm.

He wanted to get his temperature on her hands.

“You could have gone back first. You don’t need to wait outside for so long,” said Grace. She thought he had gotten off work late and stopped by to pick her up.

“I wanted to see you sooner.” As he spoke, he lowered his head. and gently kissed her fingertips.

When he was in the car, he saw her going in and out of the restaurant to deliver food. He even wondered why she chose.

such a tiring way of life when she could have chosen a simpler and more relaxed lifestyle.

“Are you sure you don’t want me to get you another job? You rejected me earlier because you didn’t want to get involved with me. How about now? I want to help you. Will you reject me this time too?”

“I’m doing quite well in this small restaurant, and I get along with my boss and the other staff. Besides…” Grace took a deep breath. “I know you’ll find me a good job, but I want to be independent.””
