Chapter 850
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
Lina then told him about Chase Harper.
When she was done, she said in a gossipy manner, âI think Chase Harper must like Grace. Otherwise, he wouldnât drive Grace back every time Grace goes to talk to him about the case.
Iâve checked. He lives in the opposite direction from Graceâs place.â
Hadwin Stephenson let out a sigh of relief. âIt turns out that this girl is not having a crush on another man after all.â
Even though she told him she liked him and that she wanted to be in a relationship with him, he was still a little skeptical. After all, she had a long history of being infatuated with several men!
âEven if he really likes Grace, itâs still up to her. I think sheâs not in the mood for another relationship anytime soon,â said Hadwin Stephenson.
Lina immediately looked discouraged like a deflated balloon. âYeah, I blame Jason for hurting Grace so deeply. I shouldâve advised Grace not to date Jason back then.â
Lina wanted to slap herself when she recalled that she approved of their relationship!
âTake it easy. If theyâre destined and if Chase Harper really likes Grace, perhaps sheâd be willing to open up to Chase Harper after a few years?â said Hadwin Stephenson.
Lina hesitated a little. âIsnât a few years⦠too long?â
âGrace will be over 30 in a few years!
âA womanâs youth is limited!â
âIs it?â Hadwin Stephenson smiled softly.
âIf you really like a person, what are a few years? Even if you have to wait 10 or 20 years or even longer, youâll wait anyway. If youâre unwilling to wait, then thereâs a limit to your love.â
Lina stared at the man in front of her. He just said those words so carefreely as if the years he spoke of were as light as feathers and were not at all a heavy burden.
âWill you wait for me too?â She could not help asking.
Lina realized it seemed a bit inappropriate after asking the question. They were already in a real relationship, so there was no need for him to wait!
âYes.â Hadwin Stephenson gave her a definite answer. âIf you havenât come to understand love and have yet to fall in love with me, then Iâll wait for you, no matter how long.â
Linaâs heart rate suddenly quickened.
âIs this a form of⦠sweet talk? I⦠like it very much.â She felt a gush of sweetness pouring out of her heart, and she knew he was telling the truth.
Even if he was talking about it lightly, but his eyes told her that he would wait for her until she understood.
Fortunately⦠she got the meaning. She really liked him and had fallen in love with him!
âHadwin Stephenson, what should I do? I think Iâll love you more and more,â grumbled Lina.
He was a little stunned, then he said, âIf you take out the words âI think,â Iâll like what you just said better.â
Lina giggled and suddenly thought of a question. âThen again, when did you fall in love with me? I donât think we spent much time together three years ago. It canât be because I was too good that night and made you unable to forget me, right? Then it would mean that you fell in love with my body before falling for me.â
Lina started letting her imagination run wild again.
Hadwin Stephenson almost choked on his saliva. âWhat the hell is this girl thinking?
âShe wasnât any good at all that night. She was like a combination of a playboy and a bully⦠However, I didnât resistâ¦!
At the thought of that night, Hadwin Stephensonâs face started to flush even though he was usually always calm and calculating.
