Ch. 141..150

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 141-However, Jason did not even bother to look at Zoe. He just said to Grace, “Sis, what do you think? Is it enough?” At this point, no matter how much she resented Grace, Zoe could only beg her for mercy.

“Grace, I… I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have treated your friend like that. I… I can apologize to your friend. Please, spare me.” Grace looked at Zoe, who was crying bitterly at this moment. She knew very well that she was begging for mercy because of Jason, not because of her.

Seeing the state that Zoe was in, she didn’t have any sympathy for her at all.

When she thought about how Lina had been treated like this, she hated her even more, and she blamed herself as well.

She would rather accept the humiliation herself instead of making Lina suffer.

Lina had already sacrificed so much for her. Ever since Grace was released from prison, she hadn’t been able to make it up to Lina even though she had suffered such hardships because of her.

“Then, I want you to apologize to Lina in front of everyone who witnessed the scene that day. You will also be responsible for paying the medical bills, work compensation, and so on,” Grace said.

Zoe nodded and agreed without hesitation. Apologies and compensations were such a small price to pay for not breaking her hand.

Terrence removed his foot. Zoe held the hand that had been stepped on, and she was in so much pain that she couldn’t even hold her walking stick.

Jason then ordered Terrence, “Tell Sean to come in and take his sister away.” “Yes,” Terrence answered and retrieved Sean from outside the ward.

As soon as Sean saw his sister holding her hand with tears on her face, he quickly helped her up. Then he cast a complicated look at Jason and Grace who were sitting on the sofa.

Although he had already known that they were together, it was the first time he had seen them face to face.

The woman who he had abandoned and had been dropped 3 to the bottom of the city was now on a meteoric rise. Maybe in the future, he would have to look up to her.

This kind of change in identity made him feel a kind of unspeakable anxiety.

“Mr. Reed, then… I’ll take my sister away now,” Sean said.

Jason raised his eyebrows slightly and said, “Don’t you want to say hello to Grace? You should be old acquaintances.” The tone he spoke this sentence with was very plain, but it made Sean feel an inexplicable fear.

“This… this… Miss Cummins and I haven’t seen each other for a long time. I hope we can let bygones be bygones,” he replied carefully. He could feel a cold sweat on his back gradually breaking out.

However, Jason’s next sentence made Sean shudder in fear.

“Grace, when you had your accident, he immediately broke up with you. If you want to take your revenge, you can tell me and I will help you.” Jason’s words sounded like carrying out what he had just said would take close to no effort.

However, when the Stevens siblings heard this, their faces changed in unison.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 142-f Jason really did help Grace take revenge on the Stevens family, then the Stevens family would lose so much to the point where they would no longer be one of the rich and powerful families in Emerald City.

“Mr. Reed, I…” Sean wanted to defend himself.

However, Grace interrupted him and said to Jason, “There’s no need. He had already become a stranger to me when we broke up back then. I should be thankful. I got to see a relationship clearly because of a car accident.” Sean’s face turned pale, and he felt defeated. When Grace said these words, she didn’t even look at him.

“In that case, good.” Jason stood up and walked up to Sean. He patted him on the shoulder and said, “You should thank her for not wanting to take revenge on you. Otherwise, by this time next year, we wouldn’t see the Stevens family’s businesses in this city.” Sean was terrified and he was sweating all over. He could only quickly thank Grace before he helped Zoe out of the room.

It was not until the two siblings left the hospital that they felt relieved.

“Brother, why do you think Jason has taken an interest in Grace?” Zoe said angrily.

“I’ve already told you not to mess with Grace,” he replied in a bad mood.

“Grace is simply relying on Jason for his power and authority!

Without him, what is she even worth!” Zoe had just suffered so much and had been humiliated, now she hated Grace passionately.

“Do you know that if she had said that she wanted revenge, the Stevens family would be in some serious trouble!” At least for that, Sean was still grateful to Grace. At the very least, she did not add insult to injury.

“Would Jason really deal with the Stevens family for a street sweeper?” “What do you think?” Sean rolled his eyes at his sister.

“Anyway, for the sake of the Stevens family, don’t provoke Grace again. Or, don’t come to us for help in the future because you will drag down our entire family with you if you do!” Zoe still wanted to retort, but when she thought of the scene in the hospital room, she shivered and stayed silent.

At that moment, in the hospital room, Jason was still standing in front of Grace. He bent down and looked at her. There was a slight smile on his handsome face and his extremely beautiful amorous eyes were shining as bright and beautiful as the moonlight.

This sort of man seemed like an angel on the surface, but when he did something, it made people shudder in fear.

“Are you happy today, sis?” Even his voice was so gentle and pleasing to the ear.

Grace steadied her gaze at the man in front of her and said, “You deliberately asked Sean and his sister to come here today to cause this scene. You wanted to show me that something I could never achieve in my entire life can be easily done by you, right?” “Not only that.” He said, “I still want to tell you, sis, that I can give you everything from dignity to respect. I can even give you back your previous life. I can give you everything you hope for.” He gently lifted a strand of her hair that had fallen on her shoulder.

“In the future, if you want to be a lawyer, or a star, or a boss, I can help you. I can help you live over everyone else so that those who looked down on you and laughed at you in the past will bow their heads in front of you. Tell me, is that okay?” He whispered to her.

His gentle voice was like the most beautiful voice in the world.

He was presenting such a tempting gift in front of her. With his ability, he could really give it to her.

But – “Do you want me to stay with you?” “That’s right,” he said.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 143-“I can’t refuse, can I?” Grace asked.

Jason’s eyes flashed slightly, and the smile on his face disappeared little by little. He then slowly straightened up and looked down at her. “No, you can refuse. I can give you the right to refuse, but…” After pausing, he looked at her with a faint smile. “Sis, are you sure you want to refuse?” Grace felt that the air around her seemed to be frozen at this moment. If she agreed, she could indeed get a lot of things or even change her own destiny.

If it had been someone else who had said these words to her, perhaps she would have agreed.

But, Jason… She had a kind of fear towards this man. It was true that he had never really tried to deal with her. However, just one sentence from him had caused her much suffering in prison.

During the three years of imprisonment and even the court hearing, no one dared to accept her case after hearing that it was Jason’s fiancée who had died in the car accident.

Even the false evidence and those witnesses who unanimously accused her of drinking made her question whether he was the one behind it all.

This man was like her nightmare who pressed her down so hard that she could barely breathe. Ever since she had discovered his true identity, whenever he had approached her, her body could not help but stiffen.

She would tremble whenever she had any sort of physical contact with him.

How could she keep such a man by her side?

After taking a deep breath, she tried to suppress the trembling in her body and said to him, “Yes, I want to refuse.” His face fell, and his black eyes filled with coldness. “Do you really not want to stay with me?” “Yeah,” she replied.

He suddenly sneered and said, “Well, I didn’t expect that one day I would be rejected by a woman. Grace, think about it carefully. If you don’t have my protection, what will happen to you in Emerald City? Even if the Atkinson family doesn’t trouble you in the future, do you really intend to sweep the road for the rest of your life?” She bit her lip and said, “That’s my business.” His thin lips were pursed into an almost straight line, and an anger rose up from the bottom of his heart. For the first time, he had tried to do this kind of thing for a woman, but she did not appreciate it at all. Instead, she was trying her hardest to get away from him.

How long had it been since he was angered to this extent? He really wanted to strangle her, but he couldn’t bear to do so.

“I couldn’t bear to?!” He couldn’t believe that that term could be used to describe himself one day. It was truly ridiculous.

Jason then left without saying a word. It was not until this moment that Grace’s tensed body relaxed.

When the doctor came to Grace for the daily checkup, he told her that she had recovered. The blood test showed that there was no remaining drug in her system.

“Can I be discharged now?” Grace asked.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 144-“As long as Mr. Reed agrees, Miss Cummins, you can leave the hospital whenever you wish,” the doctor said.

Grace felt an unspeakable feeling. So, she even needed Jason’s consent just to leave the hospital?

“Okay, got it,” she replied.

After the doctor and nurse both left, she walked into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Reflected in the mirror was a delicate face on which were a pair of crescent-shaped eyebrows and almond eyes, a well-shaped nose, and pink lips. Under the light, there seemed to be a slight glimmer over her face.

Such a face would be considered pretty good in an ordinary crowd. However, around people like Jason, there was never a lack of beauty, and she seemed inadequate by comparison.

What exactly did Jason like about her? Grace smiled bitterly. Was it just because he had found her mistaking him as a homeless person at the start amusing? Was that why he had continued to keep up this brother and sister charade?

She raised her hand and gently touched her lips. The memory of him kissing her flashed in her mind.

She still remembered that Lina had once said, “Grace, do you know that your lips are very beautiful?” “Beautiful lips?” She had never paid much attention to her lips. She only knew that her lips were not ugly, but she did not feel that they were anything special.

“Yes, it’s very beautiful. Your lips’s shape give people an impulse to kiss you.

Uh… it’s the kind of that most men would probably want to kiss.” At that time, she had only thought that Lina was making fun of her. What kind of a description was that?

But now, when she thought of how Jason had kissed her on the mouth, she felt a burning hot sensation on her lips.

“Don’t think about it anymore, don’t think about it anymore!” Grace repeated this sentence to herself. Since Jason had said that he would give her a choice that day, he would surely keep to his word.

@

A man like him would not break his promise.

“Let’s just treat all of this as a dream.” It was just a dream. In her dream, she had met a man named Jay. They had cherished each other and had a happy time together. When she woke up from her dream, she was still alone, just like before she had the dream.

Grace walked out of the bathroom and began to change into the clothes she had been wearing the day she had come to the hospital.

As for the rest, it was just her bag and her mobile phone.

There was nothing else.

Grace sat quietly on the sofa of the hospital room and waited for Jason.

In the Reed Residence, Terrence walked to Jason’s side and said, “Mr. Reed, Miss Cummins is waiting for you in the hospital room. She said that she wants to be discharged from the hospital.” Terrence’s tone was cautious. Ever since Mr. Reed had left the hospital yesterday, he had been staying in the house and had not gone to the hospital.

It could be said that he was acting abnormally.

It should be noted that Mr. Reed had been mostly staying in the hospital until yesterday.

Jason pursed his thin lips tightly. After a while, he said, “Other than wanting to be discharged from the hospital, did she say anything else?” “No,” Terrence said as he watched his Boss’s face sink again.

Terrence did not dare to utter a word. He simply waited to one side.

Jason lowered his head and played with a scarf in his hand. Terrence knew that this scarf had been woven by Grace as a gift for his boss.

Jason casually flipped the scarf over and half-closed his eyes as if he was thinking about something. After a long time, he finally stood up and said, “Let’s go to the hospital.” 

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 145-“Yes,” Terrence quickly replied. He followed Jason as they left the Reed Residence for the hospital.

When Jason walked into the ward, he saw Grace sitting on the sofa in a very upright and proper manner.

Yes, ‘proper’ was Jason’s first impression. Her back was straight and she had placed her hands on her knees. It was a textbook sitting position.

“Do you want to leave the hospital?” Jason asked.

“Yeah,” she hummed in reply, her gaze subconsciously falling to the scarf around his neck. That was the scarf she had personally knitted for him. At that time, she had been afraid that he would be cold and hoped that in winter he would be able to be a little warmer.

However, in fact, she hadn’t needed to do this at all. He had no lack of scarves or ways to keep himself warm, so he didn’t need her scarf at all.

“I can give you another chance to make your choice. Think carefully before you answer. Do you really not want to stay with me?” he asked.

In the past, he had never given anyone a second chance. However, she… seemed to be an exception.

She looked up at him and there was a kind of suffocating pressure in her eyes.

Even the air around them seemed to be filled with low pressure.

At this moment, she suddenly felt a sense of crisis, as if once she answered wrongly, there was a chance that she would be doomed eternally!

“Yes or no?” As long as she stayed by Jason’s side, her fate would change.

But… after he got tired of the sister-brother game, what kind of fate would await her? Would her life be even more tragic than before?

Besides, he was Jason, the man who had been like a nightmare to her. While she had been in prison, whenever she heard his name, she would tremble instinctively in fear.

It had only gotten slightly better after she had been out of prison for a while. But if she were to stay right by him, then the fear might follow her like her own shadow and she would have no way to escape it.

She swallowed the saliva in her throat and replied, “Mhm, I want… to be alone, and I don’t want to stay with anyone.” Suddenly, his face became a little darker, and the cold light in his eyes seemed to freeze her to death.

“You won’t regret it?” There was a sense of danger in his voice.

Her body couldn’t help but tremble again. “No.” As her voice fell, he suddenly pulled her over and threw her down on the bed.

“Ah!” She cried out in alarm and struggled to get up subconsciously.

But in the next moment, he was suddenly pressing down on her. His hands gripped her wrists tightly, reminding her of the last time he had pressed down on her in the hospital bed in the same way.

“Jason, what… what do you want to do?” Grace cried out.

“I regret it. I shouldn’t have given you a choice,” he said in a low voice. His lips touched her cheek and he kissed her face.

His kiss was very gentle, as if he was kissing a rare treasure.

However, the ten fingers that were holding onto her wrist were exerting so much force that she could not struggle even a little.

“No!” She started to shake her head in a struggle to avoid his kiss.

However, the kiss was like a shadow following her body. There was no way to avoid it at all.

“Have you forgotten? If I wanted to, you wouldn’t even have the right to say no,” Jason whispered. At this moment, his cold voice seemed to be filled with emotion, making it extremely alluring.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 146-Grace’s body froze. “That’s right. Even if I yell right now, who is going to barge in and save me?” “Saving me would be going against Jason. Who would be so stupid?” When she snapped out of her trance, his lips were kissing hers and he pried open her teeth, tasting all of her sweetness.

“No! I don’t want it to be like this!” Almost subconsciously, she suddenly bit him.

In the next moment, Grace’s mouth was flooded with a bloody taste and she was taken aback. “That’s… Jason’s blood. I know, I just bit his tongue.” Even so, he continued to kiss her, assertively forcing her to swallow his blood!

She did not know how much time had passed. When the kiss ended, her lips felt numb and the bloody taste in her mouth was very strong.

“Did it taste good?” he asked quietly. The corners of his lips.

00000 were raised and a trickle of blood was slowly flowing down from one side of his mouth.

His faint smile was complemented by the dark red blood, making it seem extra bright.

She opened her mouth to speak but the taste of blood grew even stronger and saliva mixed with blood similarly trickled down from the corners of her lips.

He raised a finger and gently wiped away the redness at the corner of her lips. “As a matter of fact, this is the first time a woman has drunk my blood. Sister, you have truly proven yourself to be the exception to many of my rules.” “Let me go, please,” she begged with difficulty.

“Are you that unwilling to stay by my side?” he asked, his fingers gently stroking her beautiful head of hair.

His movements were tender but her body could not help shivering and her hair stood on end.

“I just want to… live my life peacefully.” Every time she swallowed, it felt as if she was drinking his blood.

“So staying by my side wouldn’t be peaceful?” he asked smilingly. He reached out his fingers and abruptly tore at her clothes.

In an instant, her shoulder was exposed to the open air.

Grace’s entire body stiffened suddenly and she hastily shut her eyes, not moving at all.

“Since there’s no use in struggling, the only thing I can do is to endure it passively.

“I already understood this principle when I was in jail.” She could feel his lips kissing her neck and collarbone while his fingers touched her skin… “Bear with it, bear with it. Pretend he’s Jason and not Jason!” She mentally repeated that sentiment to herself but it was as if she was devoid of willpower and unable to restrain herself. She shivered even more violently until a nauseous feeling mixed with the stench of the blood rose within her… “Uh!” Grace abruptly opened her eyes and covered her mouth with her hand.

Then, she felt the force on her loosening and she hurriedly got out of bed to rush to the toilet. She leaned over the sink and started to throw up unceasingly.

She retched over the sink. She had not had much to eat that day and her stomach was empty so she only vomited some bile and nothing else.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 147-Her body trembled continuously as she vomited. Only when she felt as if she had vomited to the point of collapse and could not throw up any more bile did she slowly raise her head to glance out of the washroom.

The man’s tall silhouette stood right outside the washroom, his handsome face shrouded with a layer of gloom.

His dark eyes stared at her coldly. “Are you that disgusted by me?” Her face was pale and she curled up her body as if she were trying to put a thousand miles of distance between them.

Jason pursed his lips tightly. “When have I ever had to desire a woman like this?

I’m Jason. What kind of woman can’t I have in Emerald City?

“And she’s just an ordinary woman. Even if she’s slightly interesting… I won’t lower myself to chasing a woman who is so disgusted by me.” “All right, Grace. Since you’re so disgusted, I’ll let you leave,” Jason said coldly.

His beautiful and amorous eyes were cold with frost. “However, that being said, if you regret it in the future, I won’t ever want you again. I, Jason, never give anyone a second chance.” When he was done talking, he turned to leave the ward.

Grace propped herself up with her arms over the sink, seemingly using up all of her energy just to not slump to the floor.

“Does this mean… I can leave the hospital?” She rearranged her torn clothes and combed her hair, then looked at her pale self in the mirror, unable to help smiling wryly.

When Grace left the hospital, she was suddenly surrounded by a group of people.

“It’s her! That’s the Grace who killed someone!” “Oh my god! She really is staying in this hospital! She killed someone and I heard she was only in prison for three years before being released. Three years for a human life. She got off too easy!” “Lily was sad for a long period of time over the death of her sister all those years ago! Lily was sad all because of her! She caused Lily to lose her sister!” Not only were they slandering Grace, they were also throwing rotten vegetables and stinky eggs at her.

Even though Grace tried hard to dodge them, she was still struck by a large amount of waste.

Furthermore, there were reporters nearby taking pictures of her as if they were producing a news report.

In a black Bentley parked not far away, Terrence noticed that Grace was in an embarrassing situation. He then turned to look at Jason, who was sitting in the backseat silently with a cold expression on his face, and he could not help asking, “Mr.

Reed, should I go help Miss Cummins?” “No need,” Jason replied coldly. “Since she’s not willing to stay by my side then she should understand that she needs to endure this.” “These people must be Miss Lily’s fans. They probably saw the news that had been published online about Miss Cummins being hospitalized here. That’s why they’re here at the hospital entrance intercepting Miss Cummins,” Terrence explained. He had looked into the motives of the people staking out the hospital.

“This is actually an insignificant matter. I had never even considered that Grace would be unwilling to stay by Mr.

Reed’s side and try to leave the hospital all by herself.” “Everyone knows that in Emerald City, there are many women. who would love to stay by Mr. Reed’s side, and yet Grace refused him!” Terrence remained silent.

Jason studied the scene beyond the car windows with a cold expression. A moment later, it was as if he was too lazy to look any longer, so he gradually shut his eyes and ordered, “Let’s go!” “Yes,” Terrence replied. The car slowly drove away from the hospital entrance.

Terrence did not notice his boss’s hands on his knees clenching repeatedly until they slowly formed into fists.

“That’s… an extreme amount of restraint.”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 148-Grace returned to the rental apartment in a state of embarrassment. “It has only been a few days since I left for Thanksgiving and returned but it feels like I’ve experienced a whole lifetime in that period.” She studied the cramped rental apartment and felt as if there was a chilliness in the air. Grace could not help smiling wryly.

“From now on, I’ll stay here alone once again.

“No one will accompany me and talk to me in the still of the night. Moreover, no one will smile as they call me ‘Sister’!” She grabbed a set of fresh clothes and washed away her shame before starting to tidy up the house.

“Although Jason was here for only a short time, there are so many traces of him in the house. The cutlery, towel, and toothbrush he was using as well as the clothes and shoes he wore…” She cleared up everything and placed them all in a cardboard box.

“Why not throw them away?” she asked herself. “Keeping these things will just take up space, but I’d rather keep them. It might sound funny but I actually miss the days I spent with Jay.

“That Jason was clearly an illusion. He was a fake created by Jason, but… my feelings for Jason were real!

“I was so happy on the days I had Jason, as if I was finally not going to be alone anymore.” Grace finally picked up the half-knitted gloves she had placed by her headboard. “I had wanted to wait until after Thanksgiving to find the time to continue knitting these gloves for him to wear. And yet, now… I will never have the opportunity to finish these gloves.” She put the gloves as well as the needles and yarn into the cardboard box. She then took some tape to seal the box, placing it in a corner of the house.

“I’ll still be living by myself in the future. Jason is nothing but a man from my dreams,” Grace thought to herself.

At night, she did not turn off the lights and slept with them on. “Back when I left prison and didn’t have Jason, I would keep the lights on when I went to sleep because the darkness reminded me of when I was in jail.

“But then, Jason lived with me. I didn’t know when I started to not need the lights on to fall asleep.

“But now it seems as it this habit has reappeared.” Grace gave Lina a call to inform her good friend that she had returned to the rental apartment.

“Will you be at the rental apartment tomorrow? I’ll come and find you,” Lina said.

“Yes, I’ll be here,” she replied. “It seems that other than the rental apartment, I have nowhere else I can go.” Grace was unable to sleep for the entire night. Whenever she shut her eyes, she could only see Jason’s face and the scent of blood was still lingering in her mouth, unwilling to disappear.

She had gargled countless times throughout the night but that bloody stench was still very distinct.

The next day, Lina arrived at the rental apartment and when she noticed Grace’s tired appearance, she hurriedly asked, “I only saw the news this morning. Were you surrounded at the hospital entrance when you tried to leave yesterday? Are you hurt?” Grace shook her head and replied, “I was only a bit embarrassed, but not hurt.” Lina was angry and distraught when she saw the self-deprecating expression on her friend’s face. “I’m angry that those people who surrounded and scolded her knew nothing about the incident, and yet they treated an innocent woman like that. I’m distraught that my friend clearly had not been drinking but she was indicted on a charge of driving under the influence.”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 149-They were still perplexed by the material evidence and the unanimous testimony provided by the witnesses to this very day.

“How dare those people treat you that way! They only criticize others from a moral high ground without knowing anything at all,” Lina said indignantly.

Grace calmly replied, “It means nothing to me.” Lina recalled all the pain in her friend’s body and could not help sighing. “When I first welcomed Grace after she had left prison, I noticed all the wounds on her. There were both fresh.

and old ones. Although Grace has never told me about what she endured in prison, I can probably guess.

“I’m afraid Grace went through all sorts of hardships in prison.” “Is Jay really Jason?” Lina asked, changing the topic of conversation.

“Yes.” Grace nodded.

“But… if he’s Jason, why would he pretend to be a homeless person and stay with you in the rental apartment for so long?” she asked. “I can’t seem to figure out this point. Does Jason have some peculiar interests?” “It’s nothing but a game to him,” Grace replied rather bitterly. “When I heard him say that with my own ears, I felt as if I was suffocating.

“Jason, who treated me so well, warmed my hands, waited by the door for me, and quietly listened to my woes, was nothing more than an illusion he created for a game. How absurd, and yet, how real!” “A game?” Lina was perplexed.

“Yes. Those rich people are probably bored by their lives and wanted to play a game to kill time,” Grace replied softly.

Lina was momentarily unsure of how to comfort her friend. “I know that my friend hates and fears deception the most.

“Jason undoubtedly dealt Grace a heavy blow.” Grace raised her head and gave Lina a faint smile. “I’m fine, don’t worry.

Besides, I don’t have a relationship with him anymore. His game is probably over. Anyway, I didn’t lose much. I’ve just returned to living by myself.” But her smile gave Lina an urge to cry. “Then I’ll move in and live with you.” “You don’t have to, Lina. I don’t want you to fight with your family members over me again,” Grace said. “I know you’re nice to me but I’m sure you wouldn’t want me to feel guilt over you whenever we spend time together. I already owe you enough…” “Don’t say anything about owing. We’re best friends! When someone lost money in class, you were the only one who believed me and helped me to catch the thief. Grace, you believed me then and helped me. Now, I believe you and I’ll help you too!” Lina exclaimed.

“Ever since that incident all those years ago, I’ve known that Grace will be my best friend for life!” “Thank you,” Grace muttered. “When I helped Lina all those years ago, I was barely lifting a finger, but now, Lina has sacrificed so much to help me.” “That’s right, what are your plans for the future?” Lina asked.

“What else can I do? I’ll go back to work at the Sanitation Service Center after the holidays,” Grace replied.

“But the news of you being surrounded at the hospital entrance has already been uploaded to the internet. By now the Sanitation Service Center must know all about the incident from three years ago. How will your colleagues treat you…?” Lina said worriedly.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 150-“Don’t worry, it’s fine,” Grace answered. “Because actually… everyone at the Sanitation Service Center already knows about the accident that caused Jennifer Atkinson’s death and my three years in prison.” The man reclining on the sofa held his cheek with one hand and a glass of red wine in the other, sipping from it occasionally. The man looked beautiful and innocent, and there was a hint of allure that unwittingly emanated from between his brows. It was if a slight glance from him could make anyone fall deep into the tightly woven net within his eyes.

“Unable to escape or leave, I willingly falling into his trap.

“And it’s no wonder that so many ladies of note in Emerald City have feelings for him!” Patrick studied Jason as he drank alone and could not help sighing internally. “But they’re all feelings and few people have turned those feelings into actions.

“After all, those who have taken ‘action’ have irritated Mr. Reed and ended up miserable, even becoming a joke in Emerald City.” “Why are you here drinking alone? If you’re here to meet your friends, you should at least bring that woman. I really want to meet her. What kind of woman could make you abandon your Old Master on Thanksgiving?” Patrick asked.

“I’m so curious about this woman. Although Jason said that it was just a game on the phone that day and that there was no good reason to meet her.

“But… I’ve never seen Jason play any games with other women!” Therefore, Patrick was dubious of Jason’s statement.

Gripping the wine glass, Jason’s fingers faltered a little. He raised his breathtakingly beautiful and amorous eyes and stared at Patrick with a faint smile on his face. “Oh, do you really want to meet her?” Patrick’s hairs stood on end immediately and a sense of crisis arose within him.

“It feels like if I nod now, I’ll come to no good end.

“It’s as if what I said just now broke his taboo.

“A woman is Jason’s… taboo? Does that mean that the woman is actually important to Jason, or am I overthinking things?!” Patrick figured that he was overthinking and immediately flashed Jason an embarrassed smile. “I don’t want to meet her. Happy?” As they were talking, two figures suddenly walked in through the entrance. Patrick hurriedly changed the topic of conversation. “It’s Brian, that kid. He’s bringing that new girlfriend again today.

Why does this kid keep looking for starlets as his girlfriends for the past two years? He makes one famous, then finds another to make her famous. How many starlets does he wish to make famous?” Patrick was made speechless by the speed at which Brian changed girlfriends.

And yet, Brian doted on every one of his girlfriends while he was with them, giving them anything they wanted. However, once they broke up, he was frustratingly frank and ruthless.

Some even said that Brian was heartless. Even if he excessively doted on a woman, he would cast her aside like an old shoe in the blink of an eye once he tired of her.

Just then, Evelyn took Brian’s arm and entered the magnificent banquet hall with him.

“I’d never even dared to think of visiting such places before. Now I’m so nurtured in the film crew and Brian also said that I could be the female lead in my next television series.

“To me, this is like winning the lottery. Previously, just to ensure that my characters could have a little more dialogue, I had to continuously curry favor with all the screenwriters, assistant ・ directors, directors, and so on. Even if I drank with them and laughed at their jokes, it would sometimes not even be possible.

“Now all it takes is for Brian to say the word and I can be the female lead.

“But my biggest prize is being Brian’s girlfriend!

“The only thing I regret is that although Brian dotes on me in ways which could be considered meticulous, buying me the branded bags and luxury clothes I could only look at in the past and so on, whenever I want to be intimate with him, he only calmly says, ‘There’s no need for that.”
