Chapter 618
Children… In particular, families like his paid more attention to their
lineage.
“So what? When we first started dating, I already told you it’s all right even if I’ll never have children of my own. I love you, not the
children.” She was the only thing in the world that mattered to
him.
“However…” She was still in two minds about it.
‘Does this really not matter? How many men in this world can accept having no children for the rest of their life?’
“Grace! Children are only the future heirs to the Reed family to me. I’m not a man of love. If you and I have children in the future, then I might love them. If we don’t, then we can adopt one at the orphanage or from one of the Reed family’s collateral relatives. It doesn’t seem like a problem to me. All I care about is whether
you’ll marry me,” he said.
At the end of his sentence, his eyes stared at her with a burning intensity. She felt as if she had been caught in a net by him. She could not get away nor escape from him, and more than that…. She would not!
Yes, she loved him too much to break loose or run away.
“Yes, I will.” The two words spat out of her mouth just like that.
A smile came over his face. Then, he took her hand and kissed her fingertips. “I’ll never let you go for the rest of my life…”
She only felt waves of warmth pouring into her heart from her fingertips.
It was a wonderful thing to be loved by him.
“Then… Never let go of me, Jay.” As she said so, she bent down, took his face in her hands, and kissed him once more on the lips.
It was the kiss of their vows.
They were going to grow old together!
“What? You and Jason are getting married?” Lina Sweeney did not expect to hear such sensational news on a date with her best
friend.
“Yes.” Grace had a sweet smile on her lips as she said to her, “You know I don’t have many friends, so I’d like to ask you to be my
maid of honor. I wonder if you’d like to.”
“I’d love to be your maid of honor, but…” Lina Sweeney looked at Grace, hesitating to speak.
After all, Lina Sweeney thought Jason was a scary man when she
learned that he was probably the culprit behind Evelyn’s scandal.
Her best friend had nothing on Jason in terms of scheming,
artifice, and ruthlessness.
Was it a good idea for Grace to marry Jason? Once some bumps
in their marriage annoyed Jason, how would Grace protect herself
then?
Could she only depend on Jason’s love for her? How deep was
Jason’s love?
That fellow Hadwin Stephenson said Jason was the inferior one and the one being dominated in their relationship.
However, Lina Sweeney could not help but worry.
“What’s the matter? Just say what you have to say,” said Grace.
Lina Sweeney hesitated a little. “Do you love Jason enough to marry him, Grace?”
“I didn’t expect to get married so soon either,” Grace said with a chuckle, “However, it seems quite natural. I love him, and he loves. me. Since he’s willing to accept all of me, for better or worse, then I think marrying him is the best choice for me.”
