Ch. 571..580
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 571-However… it did not make sense. Master Hart was Evelyn’s boyfriend, and she was now trying to seek justice for Evelyn. If Master Hart did not like people, he should dislike Evelyn’s older sister.
Brian walked forward, but before he could speak, the manager eagerly said, “Master Hart, Evelyn only wanted to take her sister to Howell Webb out of kindness. However, her sister pushed her away and made Evelyn sprain her foot.” In other words, she was suggesting that Brian was backing Evelyn.
Evelyn’s eyes were misty, and she looked delicate. It was as if she were trying to hold back her tears. “Brian… Don’t… Don’t listen to her, Sis… didn’t mean it, I fell because I lost my footing.” Evelyn wanted to use her fans and the public’s opinion to step on Grace. Besides, no one would be able to find anything.
wrong with her and even Jason would not have a reason to stand up for Grace.
Evelyn secretly thought that she now looked like someone who could stand what had been done to her and was kind enough. to speak up for her perpetrator, Grace.
Nevertheless, Brian’s eyes only grew colder. His keen eyes. looked straight at Evelyn, so much so that the latter felt as if she had no place to hide and that this man knew all her ideas.
refused to let her do so.
Brian’s thin lips parted, and he said in a cold voice, “You fell because you didn’t watch your footing.” His words were like an invisible slap, forcefully slapping Evelyn’s face!
She could not help but visualize the scene that night when she had watched him hold Grace in his arms in front of the small restaurant.
Even if… Brian did not know that Grace was the little girl, was he still attracted to Grace?
“As for her…” Brian pointed again at the manager who had scolded Grace. “I don’t think she needs to work here anymore.” The manager looked shocked. Had she… been fired by Master Hart?
The manager broke out in a cold sweat. Being fired by the entertainment industry’s crown prince in person meant that she could forget about working in the industry. No company would accept her.
She… She had only taken it out for Evelyn! She had only been trying to please Evelyn!
The manager looked at Evelyn for help, but how could Evelyn help her? Brian’s eyes were so cold they seemed to be able to read people’s hearts, making her tremble.
Brian turned to look at Grace. “Are you all right?” There was a touch of rare concern in his voice.
“I’m fine,” Grace replied lightly. Then she said to Howell Webb’s assistant who was still in a trance beside her, “Can we go now?” “Oh, of course… of course we can,” the assistant replied hurriedly and continued leading the way. Grace dragged Lina Sweeney who was now guilty and followed the assistant Behind them, Evelyn lowered her eyes; she did so to hide the look of hatred she had in her eyes.
Brian… went as far as to criticize her in public for Grace. ‘What was so good about Grace?’ She had to make sure that Grace lost access to several opportunities!
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 572-Grace and Lina Sweeney followed the assistant to Howell Webb’s lounge Howell Webb was pretty cordial toward them, offering to take pictures with them. He even said with a smile, “If you want tickets to any of my movies in the future, you can just call me and I’ll have them delivered.” As he spoke, he gave Lina Sweeney his phone number.
In Howell Webb’s opinion, Young Master Reed had mentioned that Miss Cummins was his girlfriend when Grace came with Jason that day. Naturally, he wanted to get along with her.
After all, being in showbiz, the more connections one had, the merrier.
Lina Sweeney was Grace’s best friend, and Howell Webb was more than happy to show kindness, If Howell Webb had given Lina Sweeney his phone number in person before this, Lina Sweeney would have been thrilled.
However, at this moment she merely took it and said a polite thank you.
After getting Howell Webb’s autograph and posters, Lina Sweeney took the initiative to say to Howell Webb, “Sorry for bothering you today. We gotta go now, thank you!” With that, Lina Sweeney left and dragged Grace with her.
Grace was a little surprised. She had thought that Lina.
Sweeney would want to stay a bit longer.
Once they were out of Howell Webb’s lounge, Grace said, “Why did you leave so soon? You couldn’t have been shy just because he was near you.” “No!” Lina Sweeney rolled her eyes. What was her friend saying? “I just think I shouldn’t have brought you here today.” “Just because of Evelyn?” asked Grace.
“She’s clearly trying to set you up by doing such things in front of all those fans. We have no idea what the internet is going to say about you.” Lina Sweeney was often caught up with all kinds of entertainment gossip. Thus, it was only natural for her to think of such things.
“They can say whatever they want.” Grace shrugged. She was long past caring about gossip. Grace used to hope that she left a good impression of herself in the eyes of others. However, she later found out that if she cared too much about other’s opinions, she would only end up suffering.
If she had continued to care about what others thought upon.
getting out of prison, she would have ended up hanging herself with a rope.
“Why don’t you ask Jason to help you? If there are really bad rumors on the internet, ask Jason to get someone to shut them. down,” said Lina Sweeney. After all, such a thing should not be a problem for Jason.
Grace looked at her best friend’s worried look and patted her on the shoulder. “All right, I get it. Don’t worry about it.” “By the way, what’s your relationship with Brian?” Lina Sweeney thought of another question. “He seems to… care. about you. He even helped you get Evelyn off your back.” No matter how she looked at it, Brian seemed to be on Grace’s.
side. However, Brian was Evelyn’s boyfriend.
“He just thinks I look a bit like someone he knows. Maybe… he got separated from that person and didn’t get to find her. So, he feels a little compensatory when he sees me,” said Grace. Her guesses were based on past conversations she had had with Brian.
“I think I’ve heard of it,” Lina Sweeney thought for a moment before saying, “From the gossip posts I’ve seen before, someone has said that it seems all the girlfriends Brian has had are just stand-ins. Brian has been trying rather hard to find a woman.” Lina Sweeney used to think that those netizens were merely spouting nonsense, but it now seemed to be true.
While they were talking, they saw Hadwin Stephenson coming their way.
Lina Sweeney immediately felt guilty and subconsciously hid behind Grace.
“Why? You dare say you’re working overtime today but your dare not see me?” Hadwin Stephenson’s voice rang coldly.
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 573-Lina Sweeney let out a hollow laugh. “Hehe…” That was the reason why people could not lie. If one told a lie, he or she would be caught easily.
Hadwin Stephenson once again turned his gaze to Grace.
“Hello. Sorry if this girl has given you trouble today. Are you done? If you’re done, why don’t we have a meal together?” “No, I have other things to do. Just eat with Lina,” said Grace.
She did not want to be the third wheel.
“I’ll take you home then,” said Hadwin Stephenson.
“It’s all right. I can just take the subway in front of the cinema.
There won’t be any traffic jams,” Grace said as she bid farewell to Lina Sweeney.
After Grace left, Hadwin Stephenson folded his arms in front of his chest and stared at Lina Sweeney with a half-smile. “I think you should explain to me what happened today.” Lina Sweeney said rather lamely, “Well, I was tired from working overtime, so I came here to relax with Grace.” “Is that so?” He grunted, making it clear that he did not believe her explanation.
her mouth, she realized that she was really confused. When she saw him, he was walking with Brian.
“What do you think?” He looked at her disgruntledly.
If it had not been because of this woman, he would not have thought about asking Brian for some posters and autographs of Howell Webb after seeing him.
Of course, posters that showed the muscles of his upper body were excluded.
Brian happened to be there for some business, and Howell Webb had a roadshow there that day. Thus, he merely came along.
Who would have thought that of all the people, he would see the little liar there?
Nevertheless, looking at the rolls of paper in her hand that were clearly posters, Hadwin Stephenson only found it setting his teeth on edge.
It seemed like she could get what she wanted without his help. after all. Besides, it was unknown whether there were any muscle-baring posters among the posters she had!
Lina Sweeney blinked her eyes. “You’re not here to get Howell Webb’s autograph and posters for me, are you?” Exactly!
However, in the face of her blank stare, those words of admission somehow became stuck in his throat.
In her heart, she thought of him only as a man bent on revenge and did not believe that he would treat her well.
“Of course not,” Hadwin Stephenson’s voice turned colder by a few degrees.
‘I knew it!’ thought Lina Sweeney. However, it was unknown why there was a faint feeling of disappointment in her heart. What was wrong with her? What was there for her to be disappointed over? Hadwin Stephenson did not like her fangirling over celebrities. Did she expect Hadwin Stephenson’s help with that?
Lina Sweeney bit her lip and her stomach wailed untimely.
Hadwin Stephenson glanced at her. “Are you hungry?” “Yes…” she said rather lamely. She had screamed her heart. out in the movie roadshow earlier, of course, she had burned.
herself out rather quickly.
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 574-“Come on. Let’s go get dinner first,” said Hadwin Stephenson.
As soon as Lina Sweeney heard that there was food, she perked up immediately. One of the advantages of dating Hadwin Stephenson was that she could eat a lot of things that she previously could not.
Once out of the cinema, Hadwin Stephenson drove Lina Sweeney to a famous restaurant. Lina Sweeney had only seen. the restaurant in a gourmet magazine before and had never gotten the chance to eat there.
Nevertheless, after coming to date Hadwin Stephenson, they dined there several times.
The food in the restaurant suited her tastes rather well.
Upon entering the restaurant, Hadwin Stephenson asked for a private room. Lina Sweeney sat in the private room and ignored the Howell Webb posters she had gotten that day. Instead, she browsed her phone.
Not long after, Lina Sweeney’s face took a ghastly expression.
“What’s the matter?” asked Hadwin Stephenson.
Lina Sweeney said angrily, “These people are going too far. Do they know the truth? It’s true that you only need one mouth to create rumors while denying them takes great effort.” Hadwin Stephenson grabbed Lina Sweeney’s phone from her hand and looked at it. A video was being played on the screen. of Lina Sweeney’s phone. It was a video of Grace and Evelyn’s earlier conflict.
From the point of view in the video, it seemed like Grace had.
pushed Evelyn away on purpose. Accompanied by Evelyn’s pitiful performance, it made many viewers take her side; they accused Grace of being “mean” and “spiteful”.
While some of Evelyn’s fans added fuel to the fire in the comments, some even exposed Grace’s imprisonment, accusing her of being a murderer online.
Some people even believed that Grace was the other woman. who had stepped between Brian and Evelyn’s relationship. Otherwise, why did Brian care more about Grace instead of his girlfriend?
“Yinyin couldn’t have worse luck to have such a sister.” “Does she still want to be the crown prince’s girlfriend after having been to prison? She must be crazy for being that power-hungry!” Lina Sweeney almost threw up after seeing everyone comforting Evelyn and vilifying Grace.
She had known that someone would publish the conflict on the internet, but she had not expected it to happen so soon. Not to mention, the reproaches against her best friend were so overwhelming.
She did not believe that no one was adding fuel to the fire behind it.
That b*tch Evelyn. Could she have deliberately hired spammers online in an attempt to crush Grace with the public’s opinion?
Lina Sweeney guessed the possibilities of it, and the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed to be.
“That b*tch Evelyn is purposely trying to make Grace’s life miserable. What did Grace do to her? Grace couldn’t have worse luck to have a little sister like her,” Lina Sweeney said angrily, By the time the food arrived, Lina Sweeney had lost her “You can rest assured that your triena nas nothing to lose.
This Evelyn won’t be smug for long,” Hadwin Stephenson said.
calmly.
Lina Sweeney was stunned. “What do you mean?” “Your friend has Jason to protect her. What do you have to worry about? As for Evelyn…” Hadwin Stephenson gave a meaningful smile. “Maybe it won’t be long before she gets off the throne as his girlfriend.” Lina Sweeney immediately perked up when Hadwin Stephenson said this. “Do you mean Brian will break up with her?” “It’s just a speculation,” replied Hadwin Stephenson.
“Then, explain why you think so,” Lina Sweeney said with an open mind.
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 575-Hadwin Stephenson was somewhat amused. This fellow no longer seemed interested in the autograph and posters of Howell Webb she had always wanted. Instead, when it came to her friend, she cared more about her than anything else.
She cared so much that it made him a little jealous.
When would this girl care a little more about him?
“Tell me!” Lina Sweeney could not help but urge.
“What’s in it for me if I tell you?” Hadwin Stephenson said lazily.
“What’s in it for him?” Lina Sweeney blinked her eyes in confusion. Uh, what good. could she do him? She could not just slip him a few banknotes or give him a copy or two of Howell Webb’s posters.
“What do you want?” “Just give me a kiss,” He said casually, just to see how she would react.
However, the woman immediately cupped his face and gave him a big kiss on the cheek. “Come on, tell me!” She was not shy at all. Consequently, her actions made Hadwin Stephenson feel a little uncomfortable.
She used to at least blushed a little when he let her kiss him.
Now, she had somehow skipped blushing.
Hadwin Stephenson had no choice but to clear his throat in front of Lina Sweeney’s expectant eyes. “Evelyn has dragged Brian into the mire. She wanted to plot against Grace and used Brian as cannon fodder. Do you think a man like Brian would stand it? Besides…” Hadwin Stephenson paused there and did not go on.
“Besides what?” asked Lina Sweeney.
“Nothing. Just know that Evelyn’s place as Brian’s girlfriend has come to an end. That’s all,” said Hadwin Stephenson.
What he did not say was that Brian’s attitude toward Grace was clearly a little unusual.
‘However, since Grace is already Jason’s girlfriend. It’s unlikely she and Brian have any chance together,’ thought Hadwin Stephenson.
After the incident had gone viral for a couple of hours, another video took over the internet by storm.
The video was a surveillance video that clearly showed Evelyn grabbing Grace’s hand and then suddenly letting go and falling backward.
The video featured an expert that analyzed the situation; judging from the angle shown in the video, as well as the amplitude of both parties, it was impossible Grace could have pushed Evelyn that far with almost no amplitude in her body.
The expert even built a model of how much body swing it would have taken to push Evelyn to where she had retreated.
The expert was really an expert-a nationally renowned physicist.
Many even wondered why such a well-known expert would pay attention to gossip posts, even going through the trouble. of analyzing the video and creating models.
However, he merely said lightly, “I don’t want to see anyone. wronged for nothing.” All of a sudden, the internet was in an uproar.
Who had been wronged and who was the wrongdoer seemed clear enough after the expert’s analysis of the event.
Therefore, those who had been scolding Grace suddenly turned their firepower toward Evelyn. In response, Evelyn’s fans tried to turn the situation around, but it did not help much.
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 576-More and more people joined in. After all, no one liked to be played for a fool.
As for questioning the expert? It was quite the analysis, and that expert had nothing to do with Grace!
Evelyn’s manager hurriedly called her and said, “Evelyn, the situation online is getting out of hand and some expert has pointed out that you did it on purpose. Why don’t you ask. Master Hart for help now? Otherwise, this won’t end well later.” Evelyn gritted her teeth in fury. She had seen the content. online and had been in a good mood at first when everyone was criticizing Grace. That way, Jason would see the reports. and it would be even better if trouble broke out between Jason and Grace.
If Brian had any ideas about Grace, it would not only embarrass Jason but also ruin his own reputation.
As for herself, she only had to play the victim.
However, who would have thought that out of the blue, an expert would pop up and waste time by making some model and analyzing it.
In particular, the expert was an authority figure on the subject; it was not the usual kind of “expert” who chased clout.
Evelyn knew that everything she had at the moment was because of Brian; after becoming his girlfriend, her resources became more plentiful, and many more people became jealous of her.
Now that she was in trouble, those who were jealous of her would only love to step on her.
Brian was the only one who could help her clean up the mess.
Evelyn got ready to go out and look for Brian as she thought about it. However, when she opened the door of her apartment, she saw a man standing outside.
She immediately recognized the person as one of Brian’s men.
“Why are you…” “Master Hart wants to see you,” he said.
Evelyn was delighted. Originally, her biggest concern was that Brian would not want to see her if she went to him. Now… Was Brian worried about her?
After all, he still had her in his heart, and he probably could not bear to see her suffer.
“Sure, sure! I’ll come with you to see him this instant,” Evelyn responded with a face full of joy.
Evelyn got into the man’s car and followed him to Brian’s private residence.
When Evelyn stepped into the living room, she saw on the big screen the surveillance video that had gone viral on the internet; the video which the leading expert had analyzed.
This video… Evelyn immediately felt goosebumps all over her body, and an ineffable fear rose in her heart.
Was it not because… he wanted to help her, just like she had thought when he asked to see her?
“Brian…” said Evelyn, in a timid and aggrieved voice, “Why… Why are you watching this too?” “Why, can’t I watch it?” Brian asked lazily.
“No, it’s not that!” said Evelyn hurriedly, “I… I’m just afraid that you’ll misunderstand me after watching the video. Trust me. I wouldn’t frame my sister or anything. I don’t know how I fell that day… Maybe… I lost my footing.” “Lost your footing?” Brian turned his head slightly, and his cold gaze rested on Evelyn’s face. “Why don’t you show me how you lost your footing?” Evelyn’s face paled and reddened. “I’m your girlfriend, Brian.
Don’t you believe me? What’s more, Grace is my sister. Why would I frame her? What would be in it for me to frame her?”
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 577-She spoke agitatedly and looked as if she had been wronged. However, upon meeting his gaze, she somehow felt guilty.
“You’re right. You’re my girlfriend,” Brian muttered to himself. Then, he got up and slowly walked up to Evelyn.
Evelyn felt a burst of joy. Was he willing to trust her? He was not indifferent to her after all!
Brian walked up to Evelyn and gently raised his hand to lift her chin. Evelyn looked submissive; her eyes were watering slightly, and she seemed innocent and pitiful.
She was still an actress, even if she was only a D-list actress. Naturally, she had acting skills.
Besides, she was pretty experienced in acting pitiful and innocent.
“Brian, if you think I’ve wronged my sister, I can go and apologize to her. It doesn’t matter if the people on the internet will scold me even more,” Evelyn said meekly.
Brian gently raised his fingers and pressed it against her lips. “Do you know why I asked you to be my girlfriend?” He asked Chapter 577 She spoke agitatedly and looked as if she had been wronged. However, upon meeting his gaze, she somehow felt guilty.
“You’re right. You’re my girlfriend,” Brian muttered to himself.
Then, he got up and slowly walked up to Evelyn.
Evelyn felt a burst of joy. Was he willing to trust her? He was not indifferent to her after all!
Brian walked up to Evelyn and gently raised his hand to lift her chin. Evelyn looked submissive; her eyes were watering slightly, and she seemed innocent and pitiful.
She was still an actress, even if she was only a D-list actress. Naturally, she had acting skills.
Besides, she was pretty experienced in acting pitiful and innocent.
“Brian, if you think I’ve wronged my sister, I can go and apologize to her. It doesn’t matter if the people on the internet will scold me even more,” Evelyn said meekly.
Brian gently raised his fingers and pressed it against her lips. “Do you know why I asked you to be my girlfriend?” He asked suddenly.
‘Huh?!’ Evelyn was stunned. ‘Why?!” She had asked herself many times.
After all, there was no shortage of beautiful women in the entertainment industry. Not to mention, the entertainment industry was full of women more beautiful than her.
“Whatever it is, I’m lucky to be your girlfriend.” She thought it was the perfect answer.
When Brian heard this, he scoffed. “Lucky? Just because of the resources I gave you?” “No, it’s not that!” Evelyn hurriedly denied. “Even if you hadn’t given me any resources, I would have considered it my greatest blessing. I love you, Brian.” “But I don’t love you,” Brian said mercilessly.
Evelyn turned pale. Even though she was aware that he might not love her, when he really said it, there was no doubt that it destroyed her imagination.
“Your lips look like ‘hers’. That’s why I asked you to be my girlfriend. However, only your lips look like ‘hers’. The rest of you look nothing like ‘her”, Brian said lightly, “All right, it all ends here.” ‘It all ends here? What does he mean?’ Evelyn began to panic. “What do you mean by it all ends here?
What are you saying, Brian?” “Don’t you understand?” Brian asked lightly.
For a second Evelyn felt a chill rise up her back. There was nothing but indifference and alienation in his beautiful eyes.
she had once been so fascinated by.
It was as if the man in front of her had already sentenced her to death.
No, she did not want that!
Only her ear heard his voice ring, “Let’s break up. As for the resources I gave you, you can still obtain them with your own.
abilities.” He uttered a plain sentence as if it was a common thing.
Evelyn’s scalp tingled!
Break up? Was he really breaking up with her?
Forget about her future resource problems. If they broke up just like that, and if she did not manage to put an end to the online scandal, her advertisers and investors might be the first to seek compensation from her. Not to mention, she might not be able to finish the contracts she had signed with the TV series and commercials she had been working on.
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 578-Those penalties were no small amount.
“I do love you, Brian. Didn’t… Didn’t you say my lips look like ‘her’ lips? Even if you only think of me as a substitute, I’m content as long as I can stay by your side. Please, don’t break up with me!” She begged. She could not afford to break up with him no matter what.
He let go of his fingers carelessly and sat down on the sofa once more. “It’s a pity, but you’re not even qualified to be a substitute now!” How could someone like her be a substitute?
He had looked for someone to substitute that person again. and again but was disappointed each time. The women he chose always had a part that made him feel like they were “her”. However, whenever he spent time with them, he was unable to find the feeling he had felt when he was with that little girl.
It was as if the more he tried to grasp it, the less of it he could obtain.
Evelyn wanted to leap forward and detain him, but the two mansion guards stopped her from going anywhere near Brian.
“Brian…” Evelyn shouted desperately, but Brian did not even bother to look at her.
After Evelyn was brought out of the living room, the place fell silent once again. Brian glanced at the electronic screen in front of him, and his eyes only fell on Grace’s figure on the screen.
If it were her, she would not let him feel such a sense of hopelessness.
It was just that a woman like her did not care about being a substitute.
Only he knew in his heart that Evelyn had plotted against him too. The fact of it had made him unhappy for sure, but what made him angry was that Evelyn had plotted against Grace.
Grace looked at the trending online news. In just a few hours, it had changed completely.
That evening, the internet had directed their curses at her. However, it was now all directed at Evelyn. The tables had turned so quickly it was if it were a series of slaps in one’s face.
her. She did not think that such an authority figure would have had the time to read about her gossip.
“Yes. Why didn’t you tell me about it this afternoon?” Jason asked bluntly. He would not have known about the incident if Terrence had not told him.
“I just don’t think it’s that big of a deal,” said Grace. After all, this sort of thing was nothing compared to what she had experienced in prison.
“Nothing is a big deal to you,” said Jason. Everything about her was a big deal to him. “I don’t like watching my girlfriend bullied.” “Therefore, those spammers online are all your doing?” asked Grace.
“Some of them,” said Jason.
“Some?” Grace had a flash of doubt in her eyes.
Jason smiled and answered her doubts, “Do you think. Evelyn doesn’t offend people regularly? A vile person like her suddenly became Brian’s girlfriend. How could she be content? She probably doesn’t know how many people she has offended.” Grace thought about it. It seemed to be true.
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 579-There were probably many people who wanted to throw stones at the person who had fallen down a well. Nevertheless, Grace did not sympathize with Evelyn.
She was not the Holy Mother who would sympathize with someone who was bent on causing her trouble.
“Why won’t you let me announce that you’re my girlfriend?” asked Jason; he had planned to go public about their relationship as a couple. He did not like people mistaking that she had something going on with Brian..
Nevertheless, Grace stopped him. “I don’t want to make a big deal out of it, and I don’t want to be on the news.” She was not trying to hide the fact that they were dating anyway.
Besides, in the circle in which they lived, many people already knew about their relationship.
Moreover, because of her imprisonment, she would suffer even more criticism, especially since the victim was Jennifer Atkinson, Jason’s ex fiancee.
She could be indifferent to the criticism against her, but she could not be indifferent to the criticism against him.
Before she had reversed the case, people would probably harbor all kinds of malicious speculations about their relationship.
Jason said thoughtfully, “I’ll protect you. If you don’t want to be on the news, then I’ll ask all the media groups in Emerald City. not to bother you.” “I’m not afraid, Jay. I know that since we’re dating, the public. will come to find out about us one day,” said Grace. After all, he was Jason, he was the famous Young Master Reed of Emerald City. “My case can’t be hidden. They can find out about it through the court, the police, and the prison system. If it is made public, it will not only impact us but also the Reed. family. After all… In terms of the judge’s ruling, the person I ‘killed’ was Jennifer Atkinson.” “I don’t care,” Jason said. Gossip was a fearful thing, but it would not affect people like him.
He was even strong enough to control the so-called “gossip”.
“But I do,” said Grace. Before this, she had wanted to reverse the case to clear her name and find the real culprit who had the intention of harming her.
However, more than anything else, she now wanted to reverse the case in hopes that there were no misunderstandings, sore points, and nothing to be maliciously speculated about between them.
She wanted to be with him in a clean way, untainted by her criminal record.
Jason’s eyelashes quivered a little as he lowered his eyes slightly and hugged Grace. “I’ll reverse the case for you. You don’t have to worry about anything. It won’t be long before no one will be able to use the case to criticize you anymore.” He would clear her name for her, even if… it was more than 3 years too late.
Grace was stunned. “It won’t be too long? Is there something new to the case?” “Yes, there is something but more evidence needs to be gathered. Don’t worry, it’ll be settled soon,” said Jason.
Grace’s face lit up. “Thank you, Jay.” It was as if his heart had been stung by her thanks. Did she know that he was one of the worst people she could thank?
He only hoped that she would never know about it. The reason being, if she knew, the price would probably be too great for him!
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict Chapter 580-The next day, news of Evelyn having broken up with Brian quickly became a trending search topic. It has to be said that online comments suggesting that Grace had stepped in to cause the break up were quickly deleted each time they were posted.
With that, Grace was completely left out of the matter.
Since Brian had so many ex-girlfriends, it was no surprise to the public that “another girlfriend had been dumped”. Many even said that they knew Evelyn would be dumped. After all, those female celebrities who were more popular, more beautiful, and more educated than her, had been unable to escape being dumped.
Compared with Brian’s ex-girlfriends, Evelyn had little to merit.
Many people had therefore speculated that Evelyn’s future. status in the entertainment industry was probably going to take a dive. People had previously flattered her because she was Brian’s girlfriend, but now she was at best an “ex-girlfriend”.
In Evelyn’s private apartment, Tony Cummins and Melinda Riley looked worriedly at their daughter. They had learned from their neighbors that their daughter had broken up with.
Brian.
One of the neighbors had said in a tone of amusement, “Don’t worry too much about it, the entertainment industry’s crown prince has always dated one girl after another. Evelyn is lucky to have dated him. Otherwise, Evelyn would still be playing a small role now. How could she have become the female lead and star in commercials?” constantly pointed at by the other neighbors.
They had once strutted around the neighborhood, telling everyone that their daughter was Brian’s girlfriend and that Brian had given their daughter a lot of expensive jewelry, designer clothes, and bags. Naturally, they had also bragged that she would marry into a rich family someday.
They had done so to wash away the shame they had gotten from Grace’s imprisonment which had left their family powerless in their neighborhood.
It was now great. They were as embarrassed as pompous as they had been earlier.
“Did you really break up with Brian, Yin? Can’t you get back together?” Melinda Riley asked anxiously.
“Yes. You can’t just break up all of a sudden. Aren’t both of you all right?” asked Tony Cummins.
“It’s not that easy to get back together!” Evelyn said despairingly. The moment a man like Brian had made up his mind, it would not be easy to change it.
Besides, she was just a substitute after all. Only her “lips” looked like the person Brian was looking for.
Lips… As she thought of it, Evelyn’s heart was twisted with jealousy.
Her lips did not only look similar to Grace’s. There was Brian’s painting. What the girl in the painting looked like, and the floral dress she was wearing… It was clear to her that the person Brian was looking for was probably Grace!
The thought of it made her hate Grace more than ever! As a child, Grace was a good student and had been a clever and sensible sister in her neighborhood. She was every bit better than her.
Evelyn had thought that after three years in prison, Grace. would have fallen into an abyss and would not be able to get over it.
Who would have thought that Grace would catch Jason’s eye and was now even the person Brian was looking for!
She turned out to be a substitute for Grace after all, and now she was not even qualified to be one!
“It’s all Grace’s fault! She brought this upon me! She’s the one who sabotaged my relationship with Brian. If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t have broken up with Brian,” Evelyn said through gritted teeth.
