Chapter 899
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!
Chase Harper hesitated and held Graceâs hand back. âWhy donât I go with you? What ifâ¦â
âItâll be alright.â She smiled at him and patted the back of his hand. âI know him.â
Chase Harper let go of her hand reluctantly.
Grace got out of the car and followed the driver to the black Bentley.
The driver opened the backseat door and Grace got in. Chase Harper could only vaguely see a man in a suit sitting in the back seat, but he could not see his face.
Bang!
The door closed and the Bentley sped off.
Sitting alone in the car, Chase Harper had many speculations in his mind.
âWho the hell⦠is that man in the back seat? What is his relationship with Grace?â
Grace looked at Jason who was sitting beside her. There was a playful smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.
âWhatâs the matter? Do you like that man named Chase Harper? Do you enjoy being with him that much?â he seemed to say nonchalantly, but in her ears, it was like a heavy hammer to her heart.
âItâs none of your business,â said Grace.
âReally? Chase Harper runs a pretty small car dealership. A car dealership like this could cease to exist overnight,â
he said.
She stiffened immediately. âIs he implying that heâll do something to Chase Harperâs car dealership? Chase Harper started the car dealership. I donât want to cause Chase Harper any trouble because of me.â
She bit her lip slightly and said slowly, âI donât like him.â
âReally?â His dark eyes were fixed on her as if he was examining the truth of her words.
âIf I liked him, I wouldâve dated him when I was working at the Sanitation Service Center,â said Grace.
Sometimes she wondered if she had fallen in love with a man like Chase Harper, then she would probably be happy with an ordinary but honest and sincere man like him.
âThatâs best,â said Jason before suddenly reaching out and grabbing Graceâs right hand.
She was stunned and saw that he had taken a piece of paper towel to wipe her hand gently. âYou touched Chase Harper with this hand, didnât you? If you want whatâs best for him, donât touch him anymore.â
He said it so gently as if it was just a kind reminder.
However, Grace immediately felt goosebumps all over her body as a chill ran up her spine.
A man like him could take Chase Harper down easily!
In Emerald City, he could control othersâ
life and death at will!
âYour hands are so cold,â he muttered, rubbing her hands lightly against his like how he used to warm them in the winter.
However, she felt nothing warm.
âJason, donât⦠do anything to Chase Harper,â she said dryly, her lips severely dry.
âAre you worried that I might harm Chase Harper?â he said with a chuckle.
âWould you?â Her almond-shaped eyes looked straight at him.
The smile on his lips faded a little. âAre you that worried about him?â
âI⦠just know what it feels like to have someone control your life and death,â
Grace said bitterly.
