Chapter 494

Lina Sweeney looked like she had difficulty explaining it to Jason. She wished that she could hide the fact that she was a couple with Hadwin Stephenson.

She did not want to have many changes to her life after they broke up.

If it were not because her parents had accidentally found out about him, she would not have even told them!

“I… Hehe… I was worried I’d disturb him at work.” Lina Sweeney gave a random excuse.

“Then you’re not afraid of disturbing Grace?” Jason shot back.

Lina Sweeney held her breath. Grace quickly replied, “I’m not afraid of being disturbed by Lina.” Then, she turned to Lina Sweeney and said, “If there is any issue in the future, you must disturb me. You are the most important friend I have.”

Lina Sweeney felt warmth in her heart. She replied and looked through the rearview mirror to see Jason who was next to Grace. ‘His tone earlier… Um, he sounded like he was jealous?

It made me feel like I’m being envied.

‘But the question is… Why is Jason envious of me? Because of Grace?’ That thought made Lina Sweeney shudder!

It was unbelievable that she was being envied by Jason who was like a king in Emerald City.

However, it seemed to have happened just now.

When the car arrived near Lina Sweeney’s housing estate, another car also drove into the area. Lina Sweeney found the car rather familiar. Subsequently, she was shocked to realize that it seemed to look like Hadwin Stephenson’s car.

At that moment, Hadwin Stephenson also noticed Jason’s car. He got down from his car and walked over to Jason’s car.

Lina Sweeney got down to ask, “Why are you here?”

“I called your phone, why didn’t you answer?”

She fished out her phone to see that it was shut and sheepishly said, “Erm… It’s out of battery.”

Hadwin Stephenson took a glance at the car and asked, “Why did they send you home?”

“About that… It’s a long story,” Lina Sweeney dryly said.

At that moment, the car window rolled down and Jason said to Hadwin Stephenson from inside the car, “If you’re her real boyfriend, then don’t let others bully your girlfriend till no end.”

Hadwin Stephenson was taken aback. However, Jason had asked the driver to drive off before Hadwin Stephenson could respond.

Inside the car, Grace asked, “Did you do that on purpose?”

After all, Jason was not a nosy man. He would not usually say such things to anyone.

“Yes, I was.” Jason admitted.

“But why did you do that on purpose?” That was something she did not understand.

“To prevent her from troubling you again. Since Hadwin Stephenson is her boyfriend, then he should perform his duty as a responsible boyfriend.”

“But I don’t find it troublesome at all. I only came to help bail Lina out. Besides, Lina helped me so much back then, so even if I have to do more for her, I’m more than willing.”

‘That’s why I am jealous!’ Jason said so inwardly. He was jealous that Lina Sweeney held such an important spot in Grace’s life.

Even though he understood that this was a genuine bond between two women, he still could not suppress that jealousy brewing within his heart.

“Grace, how important is she to you?” he stared at her as he asked.

“Very important!” she answered without hesitation.

“More important than me?” His tone was rather displeased.
