Chapter 713
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
âDamn it!â
Crack!
As the sound of glass cracking rang out, the glass in Martin Weissâs hand broke and pierced his hand.
Immediately, blood ran down his right hand.
He had held the glass so hard that he broke it!
Jewel Bailey gasped. âYouâ¦â
âItâs nothing. Something came to my mind. Sorry, I lost my composure,â Martin Weiss said lightly.
His right hand was still bleeding, but he did not seem to feel any pain.
âToday was meant to cheer you up by letting you meet Jewel Bailey, but you got angry instead,â said Jason.
âNo, Iâm glad i got to meet Jewel Bailey. Jason, thank you,â said âDidnât Martin Weiss make you angry?â he asked.
âIâm angry with Martin Weiss, not with you. I just feel aggrieved for Kyla and Nelson. Where was he when Kyla gave birth in prison? Now, he says he wants to fund Nelsonâs treatment? Isnât it funny?
Thatâs his own child!â said Grace.
Grace choked a little as she spoke. âHis child was born with hearing problems. How much had Kyla suffered, getting up early and working late so that he could get a hearing aid for their child? Getting a hearing aid that cost 200,000 dollars was so difficult for Kyla, but 200,000 would be nothing more than a meal for him!â
Her eyes began to water.
Jason stroked Graceâs eyes tenderly. âWhy are you about to cry all of a sudden? If you feel sorry for Kyla Corbyn and Nelson, weâll just help them out more from now on.â
âAll right.â Grace nodded. Then somewhat sheepishly, she said, âIâll go to the washroom and fix my makeup. Just wait for me here.â
âIâll go with you,â he said.
âItâs alright. Just wait for me here. Iâll be quick!â
It would cause quite a stir if he waited for her outside the washroom. After all, many of the giant entrepreneurs at todayâs trade fair knew him!
Grace walked in the direction of the washroom. When she was heading down a corridor, she could not help pausing in her tracks.
On one side of the corridor, a slender figure was leaning against the wall, looking down at a small silver bracelet he held in his hand.
It was⦠Brian!
Grace smiled wryly. âWhat day is it today? I seem to be stumbling into a lot of people I donât want to see!â
As if sensing her eyes, Brian turned his head slightly and looked in her direction with his dark phoenix eyes.
Grace froze immediately. The feeling somehow reminded her of what she felt in her dreams when the little boy, whose face she could not see, turned to look at her.
âCould they be the same person? Could he be the same person as the little boy in my dreams?â
âIf so, are my dreams really the memories I had lost?â
She stood rigidly where she was, watching him lift his foot and walking toward her step by stepâ¦
