Chapter 508
However, no one expected his self-righteous insistence to
collapse so quickly.
When the accident happened, he panicked and was frightened. His parents told him to get rid of Grace right away and he did so without even hesitating.
It was at that moment that he realized that the love he
expected was not worth his future. He was not willing to
sacrifice his future for Grace.
He loved Grace because he could be the grand young master of the Stevens family. Once this was gone, the so-called love was also gone.
Over the years, he would feel guilty sometimes, but whenever he felt guilty, he would tell himself that it was all Grace’s fault.
Things would not have come to this if she had not driven. under the influence and hit Jennifer Atkinson, so it was all
Grace’s fault.
It seemed that only by thinking this way could he feel at ease. again.
He thought that this was the end for him and Grace. Like
two horizons, they would no longer intersect. However, now
it seemed as if his life would gradually be filled with her
influence.
Like with Zoe’s legs and now his wife’s family’s shopping mall.
It was all because of Jason. The person behind Grace was now
Jason.
“Sean?!” Lily’s voice interrupted his trance.
He came back to his senses and looked at the gorgeous face
in front of him, which was completely different from Grace’s
face. This woman was a movie star, a famous socialite in the
city. She was a goddess in the hearts of many men. In the
future, she would inherit all of the Atkinson family’s fortune.
Such a woman could not be more suitable to be his wife.
“Of course it’s you I love! Even without the accident, she and I
wouldn’t have made it to the end. We weren’t meant for each
other after all,” said Sean Stevens.
“Shall we… get married then?” Lily asked suddenly. Ever since their engagement, they had been addressing each other as husband and wife.
In high society like theirs, betrothal was similar to marriage. The difference was only the lack of a marriage certificate. This
made her feel a little uneasy.
Sean Stevens was stunned. “Why the sudden mention of marriage? Didn’t you say that you’re now popular and getting married would be bad for your career? Besides, if we want
to get married, we have to deal with our family’s companies
first.”
After all, a marriage between people like them not only
involved each other but also their family’s companies and the
interests of their two families.
“You’re right,” said Lily as she seemed to sober up a little. “I was too impatient. Let our marriage go as planned then, but
Sean…”
Lily paused and stared at him. “You must promise me that you’ll treat me with all your heart. Whatever I do, it’s all for you, so you must never let me down.”
Sean Stevens could not help feeling breathless under her gaze. It was as if she was implying something. However, he immediately laughed at himself for thinking too much.
Did women not always like to say things like that? They always loved their men making promises to them.
“Of course, I’ll never do you wrong. You’re my wife, the future mistress of the Stevens family!” said Sean Stevens.
With a satisfied smile, Lily snuggled into Sean Stevens’s arms.
Her gorgeous face turned cold the moment she buried into his arms. Grace… The name was like a thorn, piercing her heart.
