Ch. 221..230

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 221-Was the man behind Evelyn Brian?

“All right, I’ll send you the list of medicine I bought as well as a copy of the certificate for lost wages. Please pay by then.” As she finished, she said to Brian, “Thank you for today, Mr. Hart. I need to go now.” With that, Grace left the lounge, leaving Brian and Evelyn alone.

Brian stared at Evelyn coldly, frightening her.

Evelyn managed to squeeze out a smile. “Brian, why are you looking at me like that? By the way… You and my sister… Well, do you know each other?” “Why, do you want to pry into this as well?” Brian asked without a reply.

“I… I’m just curious. I’ve never heard my sister mention it,” she said.

“Right, your sister lives in a shabby and small rental house.

She’s sweeping the road as her job. Now, as an extra, she had to keep kneeling and groveling to you, her sister, for a mere 330 dollars. Why would she mention it to you?” There was a rare chill in Brian’s voice.

For Evelyn, at least, it was the first time he had spoken to her in such a cold voice.

Evelyn unconsciously shivered a little. “Brian… My sister and I have some misunderstanding…” “Oh, what kind of misunderstanding do you two have that you would make her kneel and grovel over and over again?” Brian asked.

Evelyn felt a pang of panic. “I… I just wanted the film to look better. Sis did it right, so I thought of… letting her demonstrate. I… It wasn’t my intention to…” Evelyn stammered. As she tried to make herself appear innocent, she just grew more and more nervous as Brian watched.

“That’s enough. You don’t need to say anymore. How many people do you think will believe your excuses?” Brian interrupted coldly. “Do you take yourself for a fool or do you think I’m a fool?” Her face turned pale, and she felt as if he had seen through her.

Brian casually took Evelyn’s hand. Her thin and fair wrist was wearing a diamond-encrusted limited-edition watch that was on the market for two million dollars.

“Do you feel that you have become successful and want to show off to your sister? You want her to know how much power you have now by getting her to kneel and grovel and do whatever you want when you know that she can’t even fight back?” Brian seemed to speak casually, but Evelyn listened in horror.

“Come to think of it, I’ve given you a lot of things during this time too. Some other people have also secretly given you a lot in order to please you. Simply pick out anything you have on you, and your sister probably won’t be able to earn enough for it even after several years. How about you? Have you not thought about helping her?” “I…” Evelyn’s eyes were wide open, but she could not utter a complete word. She was shaking like a sieve.

She thought that she had been secretive about the ‘respect’ she was receiving from others who wanted her to put in a good word for them with Brian. In fact, she had helped these folks who ‘respect’ her a few times prior. Just by intentionally bringing up good things about them in front of him indirectly helped complete favors for them.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 222-As a result, what she thought was a secret was now exposed by him in such a straightforward and simple way.

“You know why I didn’t expose you before? Because it doesn’t matter to me. You work so hard to act in front of me. I have to pay you some compensation, don’t I?” he said lightly.

She looked stunned. Her face turned from pale to red as if someone had slapped her several times. It hurt and embarrassed her.

“However, I don’t like people who act too much and take themselves too seriously.” Brian’s face darkened as he pulled the two million dollar watch off Evelyn’s wrist and fiddled with 1. “I can make you a star, but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want. Otherwise, the bigger a star I make out of you, the harder you’ll fall.” As he finished his sentence, his fingers loosened. The watch fell heavily to the ground, causing fine cracks to appear on its surface.

Evelyn gasped. Her body stiffened with fright.

“Also, you don’t have to go to tonight’s party anymore,” Brian said before walking out of the lounge. Evelyn did not even have a chance to explain herself!

Evelyn looked at the watch on the floor in confusion. It was worth more than two million dollars. It was the first time in her life that she had worn such an expensive watch.

However, he had dropped it just like that! Was he telling her that he could always do the same to her?

Even if the people outside praised her to the sky, to him, she was just something he could throw away at any time?

Evelyn’s hands that were at her sides were clenched into fists.

She held Grace accountable for all this.

The party tonight was a gathering for Emerald City’s top elites. She had been looking forward to the party tonight and even specially ordered a dress from France to be flown in by air with the hope of impressing those elites tonight. It was a good opportunity for her to raise her popularity as well as build connections.

However, because of Grace, she was unable to go to her party tonight!

Grace would have to pay her back for this sooner or later!

Naturally, Emerald City’s top elites’ parties also attracted several journalists, but not all journalists could enter such. parties.

As a result, many journalists had to barricade themselves in front of the hall’s entrance to see if they could get anything of value.

A fleet of luxury cars kept stopping at the hall’s entrance. The people getting down from these cars were, of course, all celebrities from all walks of life in Emerald City.

Suddenly, a black Bentley stopped in front of the hall’s entrance. A few experienced journalists, after seeing the license plate, knew who it was immediately and put down their cameras without even being told to.

After all, the man never liked being photographed by journalists.

One of the journalists who did not know any better took a full face photo of the man and posted it online. As a result, the photo was deleted, and the journalist lost his job. He could no longer stay in Emerald City.

It was a popular saying among the journalists that they should not simply take photos of Jason. Even if you took one by accident, you should not publish it or put it on the internet. Your could only take a picture of his back. He would not go after you if that was the case.

The Bentley’s door was opened, and a tall figure stepped out.

The crowd was wowed.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 223-Although there were some top celebrities at the party tonight, Jason was not inferior to any of those A-list male celebrities. In fact, he was even more striking than they were.

He had a beautiful face, and when he looked at people with those charming, amorous eyes, the journalists could not help but fall for him. He was too beautiful to describe. His beauty was the kind that could attract both men and women.

However, when these eyes were cold, it gave people an indescribable tension.

Jason, now with half-drooped eyes, was surrounded by his own bodyguards as well as the venue’s security guards. His long, lean body was wrapped in a welltailored black suit, making his figure look extremely well-proportioned. There was an air of elegance all over him.

Jason always had great fashion sense, which was a consensus among the journalists.

However, today there were exceptions.

Everything else was fine, but… He wore a light purple scarf around his neck and a pair of gloves in the same color. These two accessories were a little strange to look at.

“Why do the scarf and gloves look a bit different from Jason’s usual style?” A journalist started whispering.

“It looks a bit rough, and it seems… a little old too. Is it a new vintage collection from some big brand?” “The average man would have a hard time looking good in this light purple color!

However, it seems to suit Jason.” Jason did not like being photographed, but some reporters could not help but secretly photograph him.

When Jason’s bodyguard was about to walk over, he seemed to move his lips to say something. Immediately, the bodyguard stopped.

Once Jason was inside the venue, the reporter who took the candid photo gasped for breath.

He thought that the bodyguard was going to come up to him and ask him to delete the contents of his phone.

The moment Jason entered the venue, he naturally became the focus of attention. Almost immediately, many upper-class ladies tried their best to get close to him.

Patrick walked over to Jason to examine his friend’s outfit and said, “You look really sharp in your outfit. The scarf and gloves don’t look like your usual style, though.” Jason raised his eyebrows. “What do you think my style is?” ‘Definitely not this woolen scarf and gloves. And in such a gentle color too!’ Patrick thought to himself.

“By the way, shall I introduce you to some of the great ladies of Emerald City?” Patrick suddenly said.

“No.” Jason coolly refused.

Patrick’s face turned bitter. “Let me introduce you, or I’ll be annoyed to death by these women.” They were the precious daughters of the Weiss family’s friends.

Patrick would have been their first choice, but the ladies completely ignored him and desperately wanted to meet Jason through him instead.

Patrick had no choice when it came to this matter. He was quite decent looking and was funny too, but women just did not like him. He could only say that there was something wrong with their eyes.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 224-Jason rolled his eyes at Patrick. At the same time, Patrick heard some ladies around him puffing and muttering, “Oh my God, he even looks good rolling his eyes!” Patrick had the sudden urge to spit blood. Jason had only rolled his eyes. Did those fangirls have to fawn over every little one of Jason’s move?

As Jason took off the gloves, Patrick seemed to realize something suddenly and grabbed the gloves from Jason’s hand.

“They seem to be hand-knitted. The knitting isn’t very nice, though.” Patrick commented on the gloves in confusion. “The wool looks like old wool. Did a store cheat you? How dare they sell you these gloves!” “Who said I bought them?” Jason said lightly.

Patrick’s jaw dropped. If he did not buy it, then… “Someone else can’t have knitted them for you.” Jason did not answer, but his expression showed that he tacitly agreed.

Patrick felt a little dizzy. Was it really from someone else? With Jason’s character, he would never wear this kind of stuff.

However, he was not only wearing them today, but he was wearing them in such a public place too.

Who the hell knitted them?! What kind of person made such… Uh, not so great scarf and gloves, but ones that Jason would wear?

Patrick’s mind flickered for a moment with rumors of the woman whom his friend had rescued from a nearby town during Chinese New Year’s Eve. He even left Old Master Reed behind.

He even alerted the local police for the woman’s sake.

Could it be the same woman?!

As he was lost in thought, Jason stretched out his hand to Patrick and said, “Give it back.” “Ah!” Patrick came to his senses and was about to return the gloves to Jason when a voice rang. “Those gloves…” “These are the gloves Jason is wearing today.” Patrick went first and said, “Or…” However, before he could finish the last sentence, Brian said, “They’re handmade.” “Ah, you found out,” Patrick muttered.

Brian stared at the gloves, then looked at Jason in surprise.

“What is it? What’s wrong with the gloves?” Jason asked. He could feel Brian’s face changing as he looked at the gloves.

“Are they from someone else?” Brian asked.

“Yes.” Jason narrowed his eyes, and they gradually deepened as he looked at Brian. “Have you seen them before?” Catching Jason’s eye, Brian frankly answered, “Yes.” For a moment, there seemed to be a tension in the air.

Patrick, who was on the side, could not help but yell, “What are you talking about? What have you seen or not seen? By the way, Brian, why didn’t you bring your new girlfriend over today? I heard she was throwing her weight around on set today and ended up hitting a snag.” Brian cast a slight glance at Patrick. “You’re well informed.” “It’s nothing!” Patrick said humbly. “I just happen to know it from someone who’s been gossiping it with me. I heard your girlfriend made some extra kneel and grovel non-stop. Then you gave her a slap in the face in public by carrying the extra straight to the lounge. Why, have you got a crush on the extra? You’re getting rid of your new girlfriend?”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 225-Patrick jokingly said as he was used to seeing his best friend change girlfriends all the time.

It would be strange not to see him change a new girlfriend every once in a while.

It was just that if the current starlet had really gotten replaced, she probably broke the record for being with him.

the shortest amount of time.

“Yes, I do,” Brian said casually, but he was still looking at Jason in the eye.

Patrick had not felt anything yet, but Jason’s face was already sinking. Even the air around him seemed heavy with seriousness.

“Hey, Jason, what’s wrong with you? Why are you so serious?” Patrick asked.

He was wondering why there was something oddly eerie about the atmosphere.

Jason ignored Patrick and stared at Brian with his dark eyes. He suddenly smirked. “Is the extra your girlfriend’s sister?” “Yes. What a coincidence, isn’t it?” Brian said.

Jason smirked even more, but his eyes were cold. “Yes, what a coincidence.” As he finished, he turned and walked toward the exit.

Patrick looked at Brian who stood next to him in disbelief. “Is Jason… leaving?

He hasn’t even been here for long.” Brian stared at Jason’s back with the same serious look.

“Did you guys say something that I didn’t catch?” Patrick asked. He thought that he had understood everything the two friends said, but now it seemed otherwise.

How else could they react in such a way that he could not understand?

“Never mind. It’s just that some things are too coincidental,” Brian said, averting his eyes.

He also heard Patrick mentioned that Jason seemed to care about a woman.

He just did not expect that the woman Jason cared about would be Grace.

Grace turned on her phone and was now casually going through videos while eating her takeaway food.

At the moment, the video she was watching was an influencer’s live stream show. The influencer was standing in front of a venue, live streaming Emerald City’s elites’ party tonight.

The influencer said that by now, all the elites would already be inside. Although she could not to go in, she was outside guarding. She was hoping that by doing this, she could bump into a celebrity when they came out.

“Let’s see how our luck will be today. Why don’t you guys wait with me?” the influencer said while striking a variety of cute poses in front of the camera to attract the audience.

Grace, though not particularly fond of celebrities, did not really expect to see the influencer bump into a celebrity. She was only watching this for entertainment during dinner.

The influencer started to interact with her live stream viewers, asking them to guess which celebrity she would bump into today. She even set up a poll session and so on.

Suddenly, the person in charge of the shoot reminded the influencer, “Someone’s out.” With a turn of the phone camera, sure enough, there was a figure striding out of the venue.

The influencer immediately got excited and hurriedly said, “I wonder who it is! I think it’s only been a while since the party started. Are they out for something urgent? Why don’t we zoom in and see who it is? I hope it’s the celebrity we’re looking forward to!”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 226-As the man moved closer and closer, his face became clearer and clearer in the camera.

When Grace caught a glimpse of the man on camera, the rice in her mouth that she had barely swallowed nearly burst out.

It… It was Jason!

The Jason on camera was in a black suit. He was tall, and his hair was neat. He looked like an elegant, dashing young man.

Perhaps the only things that stood out were the scarf around his neck and the gloves of the same color on his hands.

They… did not look right with this suit at all.

Here on the influencer’s live stream show, the people watching were already flooding the screen with comments.

“Who is this man?” “He doesn’t look like a celebrity, but he’s so handsome. Oh my God, I’m going to fall completely under his spell.” “Oh my God, is he really not a celebrity? I’ll be a huge fan if he ever debuts!” “Quick, go up there and interview him! Say something, it’s killing me!” The others urged.

The influencer grinned at the phone’s camera. “Then let’s go and do an interview. I hope this gentleman is willing to talk to us!” She only took a few steps forward to find that the photographer holding the mobile phone did not follow her. She turned back and jokingly said, “Come on, is our cameraman too tired to walk already?” “That… That’s Jason. That man is Jason…” A quivering voice sounded from the cameraman behind the phone.

“What?” The influencer was surprised. She looked incredulous as she glanced at Jason again. Then, she yelled in a panicked voice, “Quick. Cut the video.

Stop filming!” However, it was already too late. The audience was already in an uproar.

Who was Jason? It was very clear to many people. After all, their food, clothing, housing, and transportation usually involved the Reed family’s business.

However, Jason did not like to be photographed, so there was an unwritten rule in the media. Even if you did shoot Jason, ” you could only shoot his vague distant figure or back.

It could be said that this influencer had captured Jason’s full face in crystal clear quality. Furthermore, it was taken in the form of a video during a live stream.

“Oh my God, so Jason looks like this! He’s so good looking!” “Please take my knee.” “He’s my husband, and I’m hell-bent on my husband!” “No one can steal my husband!” All sorts of comments were flooding the screen until the live stream was eventually turned off.

However, not long after that, Grace found a video that recorded Jason’s live stream earlier. There were already a lot of comments on it. Apart from comments about Jason’s beauty, there was also curiosity about Jason’s departure.

A lot of people were talking about Jason’s early departure. Some were even careful to analyze Jason’s steps in the video with a series of data. It was faster than a normal person’s walking pace, so it could be something urgent.

As for what the emergency was, some people discussed whether there was something wrong with the Reed Group or if there was something wrong with Old Master Keed.

After all, Old Master Reed’s long hospital stay had been reported in the media and was well known to many.



My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 227-Some people even speculated that Jason left in anger after arguing with some other guests inside the hall. Others speculated that there were a lot of ladies around him today, so he left early because he could not stand them.

In short, there were all kinds of speculations.

Grace was reading all the comments that were flooding in.

She started to wonder what had happened to Jason that caused him to suddenly leave the venue.

It was not until there was a knock on the door that Grace got up to open it. She instantly choked when she saw the figure standing outside.

“Ahem… Cough…” She could not help coughing. For a moment, her face was flushed.

Who would have thought that the person everyone online was now fervently discussing about would show up here?

Jason frowned slightly, raising his hand to pat Grace on the back and helping her to breathe properly again. “What’s the matter? Why are you choking so badly? Do you have a cold?” She choked and shook her head. She did not have a cold. She was taken aback by his sudden appearance.

Grace finally managed to catch her breath and looked at Jason. “Why… Why are you here?” “Why? Can’t I be here?” he asked rhetorically.

She pressed her lips together. Of course, he could come, but… He entered her house and shut the door behind him. The small rented house was even smaller now because of him.

His eyes fell on her left hand which was obviously red and swollen. “How did you hurt your hand? Did you hurt it when you were working as an extra?” As he spoke, he caught her wrist, took her left hand, and was about to put his fingers over the swelling on the back of her hand when she exclaimed, “Don’t touch it, I’ve just applied ointment on it!

His fingers closed slightly, but he kept staring at the swelling on the back of her hand.

He had only heard Patrick mention about groveling and kneeling earlier. He did not expect that her hand would be hurt to this extent.

The swelling and redness were so glaring on her slender and fair hands.

“It was hit by a prop,” Grace replied lightly. Then, as if she had thought of something, she looked at him in surprise and said, “You know I went to be an extra today?” He did, however, caught sight of a bruise on her forehead.

This made his frown deepen. “Is this from the groveling today?” She gasped at the touch of his finger.

Although her forehead was not as badly hurt as the back of her hand, there was a dull pain when she touched it.

Since he already knew that she went to be an extra today, it did not seem strange for him to know that she had groveled and knelt as well.

After all, she groveled in front of a lot of people on set today.

Jason’s sullen face looked as if people owed him a lot of debt. His cold expression caused the air pressure around him to lower.

Grace kept her eyes wide open. She stared at Jason, not knowing why on earth he left the party early and popped into her house just to ask her if she was an extra today.

Her innocent and blank expression inexplicably made him feel more irritable.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 228-Thinking that she had been wronged and bullied on the set today, he was in a bad mood and was anxious to see her.

Now that he saw her, his mood was even worse!

Jason raised his hand and flicked the bruise on her forehead.

“Ouch!” Grace could not help but gasp at the pain.

He sneered. “Is it painful?” Of course! She was not made of stone. Of course, it hurt when he flicked her!

Especially when he intentionally aimed for her bruise.

She glared at him with her almond-shaped eyes.

He laughed angrily. “Great. Great job, Grace. I wanted you to stay with me, but you were quick to refuse. I thought you had a lot of dignity and backbone, but now? Was it fun to be an extra and be bullied into kneeling and groveling nonstop by your sister?” She bit her lip, subconsciously taking one step back. He was frightening her a little.

However, when she took a step back, he took a step closer.

She continued taking steps back until she reached the wall with her back against it. There was no more room for her to evade him.

He closed in on her, his hands propped on either side of the wall. He was almost encircling her in his arms.

“I asked you, was it fun?” His eyes were fixed on her, and his voice, deeper than usual, seemed to have a subdued fury in it.

She was confused. She was the one who was hurt and bullied today! Why was he the one angry instead?

“I… wasn’t playing,” she grimly replied after a while.

“Wasn’t playing? What set did you go to? Why did you become an extra? What, do you want to be a star? Why didn’t you just tell me? I can make you a star.

You can just ask me for anything you want. You don’t have to kneel and grovel and hurt your hand like that,” he said coolly.

If possible, he would have her chained to him so that she could not go anywhere and humiliate herself.

Grace took a deep breath, tilted her chin up slightly, and said, “For 330 dollars. I got to earn 130 dollars as an extra, and I got another 200 dollars by kneeling and groveling to Evelyn repeatedly. That’s why I became an extra, alright?” He paused for a moment. “330 dollars?” “Yes, 330 dollars!” “You did that for only 330 dollars? Why didn’t you come to me for money? I’ll give you as much as you want. I…” “I’ll have to pay something in return for your money, right?” Grace said. She just did not want to get involved with him. anymore. She wanted to go back to the old days when she did not know him. It was too lonely to be alone in the house back then, but she was not a game.

“What if I don’t want you to pay?” he asked.

“Then there’s no need for it. You don’t have to give me any money. I can earn my living,” she said.

He snorted. “Do you have to get yourself into this mess to earn your living?” She gasped. A trace of gloom flashed in her eyes. Then, she slowly lowered her eyes and muttered, “At least I earned this money with my own abilities, and I don’t need to be afraid of anything.”

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 229-“Did I frighten you?” he asked.

She hesitated. “I know you’re just treating me like a game. You’re interested in me now because you think it’s fun. Once your interest wanes, then I’m worthless. If I offend you by accident, things might be as worse as what it was like in prison.”” She did not want any more of those dark and miserable days!

“Aren’t you afraid that you’ll offend me now by saying that?” he asked.

Her body suddenly stiffened. Yes, of course, she was afraid, but she chose to say it anyway.

Her expression said it all.

There was a terrible silence all around.

Grace lowered her head, and all she could hear was her breathing and heartbeat. Jason did not say anything, but she could feel that his eyes were on her.

No one knew how much time had passed. Suddenly, she heard his voice. “If I say I’m not treating you as a game, will you want to stay with me?” She raised her head suddenly and looked at him in astonishment as if she had not expected him to say that.

“Will you?” His eyes were still fixed on her.

She gave a bitter smile. “What am I supposed to do by your side? Continue to be your sis? Or be your playmate? Either way, I’m afraid I’m not up to the task.” His thin lips drew a straight line, and his eyes grew cold. The word ‘wife’ was stuck in his throat.

If she asked, he could marry her. However, had Jason ever needed to ask a woman to be his wife?!

He suddenly gave her a faint smile and bent down slowly. He brushed her cheek gently. “Since Sis has already said so, let’s go ahead and see who is more patient. Will I be the first to give up on keeping Sis with me, or will Sis be the first to beg to stay with me?” Grace became slightly short of breath, and her body shook as he got closer.

He was always so unpredictable. He could look like he was angry at one second and then be like the calm after a storm the next second.

Having said that, Jason walked over to the table, pulled up a chair, and sat down.

Grace was relieved and felt another cold sweat break out on her back and palms.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of him casually picking up her phone. She shuddered and tried to grab her phone back from him.

However, it was too late. He had already seen what was on the phone.

Jason slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at Grace, half smiling. “Why, are you searching for news about me? If you have something to ask me, you can just call me and ask instead of searching the internet like this.” She gasped. How could she explain this? Could she say that she just saw an influencer’s live stream and, out of curiosity, searched for the relevant content?

“The party you attended today just started when you left. Doesn’t it matter if you just come out like that?” She could only digress.

“It’s just a party,” he said nonchalantly. There were many parties like that in a year, and sometimes, he did not even bother to attend at all.

“Sis hasn’t finished eating yet. Go on.” He glanced at her half-eaten takeaway food, then calmly drew a chair and sat down.

My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 230-She nibbled her lip and sat down. Her uninjured right hand was holding the chopsticks to pick up the food. She was eating it mouthful by mouthful.

He sat quietly beside her, holding his chin in one hand while looking at her quietly.

Under the lamplight, her eyelashes had a natural curl, which became more obvious when she dropped her eyelids. His hands seemed to be able to cover her palm-sized face completely.

Her delicate nose and her constantly moving cheeks as she chewed her food made her look like a small animal that was eating. There was an indescribable cuteness about it.

He had not known before that watching a woman eat could be so enthralling.

The more he looked at her, the more he seemed to want to hide her. He wanted to hide her where no one could see find her, where only he could look at her and where only he could approach her.

No one else could covet her!

Grace was eating with her head down, but she could feel Jason staring at her all the time.

The air seemed to be filled with vague embarrassment.

Her face felt hotter and hotter. Even her swallowing became a little difficult. It was not like he had not seen her eating before, but at this moment, she felt warm. There was no discomfort, but… Grace sped up, trying to finish her food quickly.

Just then, he suddenly asked, “Sis, do you like Brian?” Poof!

The food she had not yet swallowed burst out of her mouth. Then, she coughed and looked at the table in front of her… He was covered with the rice she had just spat out.

“I’m… I’m sorry…” she hastily said and hurriedly wiped the grains of rice on his clothes.

He took her hand casually. “Sis, you haven’t answered my question. Do you like Brian?” She looked at him blankly. Did she like Brian? Why would he ask her that?

Besides… How did he know she knew Brian? She had never mentioned it to him!

For a moment, all sorts of doubts filled her mind.

Her silence made his brows twitch. His fingers brushed lightly against her lips.

“Do you like him?” His voice was soft. It was gentle yet dangerous.

“I… I have nothing to do with him at all. Why do you ask?” She wanted to turn her head to avoid his fingers.

His fingers immediately grabbed her jaw, firmly fixing her face. Then, he lowered his head and pressed his lips lightly against hers. “Is there really nothing? If there’s nothing, why did he carry Sis to the lounge at the set today?” She looked at the pretty face before her in surprise. He… He knew!

“Why, is Sis wondering how I know this?” He smiled gently. “Is it strange that I know when so many people were at the scene?”
