Chapter 744
“Vicious?” Grace interrupted Sean Stevens. “If that’s called vicious, then you probably don’t know what vicious really is,
Mr. Stevens!”
The inhuman torture she had suffered in prison had made her
think several times that she would not survive. Sean Stevens
probably had not suffered a tenth of that pain.
“Will you only be satisfied after ruining her?” Sean Stevens asked angrily.
“Didn’t she try to ruin me too? If I hadn’t gotten lucky, my
hands wouldn’t be able to lift anything now,” Grace said
sarcastically.
Sean Stevens was shocked, and his gaze fell on Grace’s hands by her side.
In the past few years, his mind would recall that scene every
now and then. When that happened, he would feel a surge of
mixed feelings.
Especially after learning that Grace was wronged, he wondered if he and she would have stayed together if she had not been wronged.
However, he would always put a stop to the idea.
Lily was the best for him. Lily was the best choice for him and
the Stevens family.
“Grace, now that you have Jason, why bother being so ruthless
with Lily?” Sean Stevens softened his tone.
Grace sneered and looked at Sean Stevens with nothing but
disgust in her almond-shaped eyes. “Mr. Stevens, I’m afraid
you don’t know what it means to be ruthless.”
“Lily is now only blacklisted in the entertainment industry, but
she’s still the second daughter of the Atkinson family.
“She still has her family and you. She has the Atkinson family and the Stevens family as backup.
“Being ruthless would be having everyone turn their backs on her and have the Atkinson family and the Stevens family reach a dead-end. She would be in pain but can’t get help,
and she’d rather be dead than alive.”
As Grace spoke, Sean Stevens’s face grew paler and paler.
“Do you want to see me be that ruthless, Mr. Stevens?” asked
Grace.
Sean Stevens could not utter a word.
It was not until Grace got in the car and sped off that Sean Stevens stumbled.
For a moment, there was a surge of fear in his heart that Grace would indeed go ahead and be as ruthless as she said.
When she was dating him, she was confident, energetic, and gentle. Whenever he asked for something, she always tried her best to do it well.
However… What was left was cold and disgust.
Maybe she was giving another man her gentleness and energy, a man… He simply could not afford to offend!
Sean Stevens could only feel a sense of loss in his mind.
Why… Did he feel this way when Lily was a better fit for him
than Grace?
His heart seemed to be throbbing.
‘Is it for Lily? Or is it for Grace?
‘Or is it for what Grace called ‘ruthlessness’, which is something that Grace herself has experienced…
Sean Stevens did not want to think about it anymore.
The driver drove Grace back to Reed Residence.
On the way, Grace sent a message asking Jason if it was true
that Lily had been blacklisted.
She did not expect Jason to answer right away.
Only three seconds later, he replied with a message, ‘Yes.’
