Chapter 787
‘From now on, I don’t have to worry so
much about whether she would go to
Brian, and I don’t have to guess how
much of her heart is with Brian.
‘I won’t repeat my father’s mistakes. I won’t let myself become as awkward and embarra**ed as a lost dog just to love
someone.
‘I surely won’t!’
With that, Jason finally left the kitchen and walked up the stairs to the second
floor alone.

Terrence looked at the back of his boss
with mixed feelings.
‘If there really is someone in the world
who could control Young Master Reed’s
life and death… Somehow, Grace’s name
came to his mind.
Grace woke up the next day to see a beautifully wrapped gift box at her
bedside. It was a birthday gift from Lina
and Hadwin Stephenson.
It was just that she did not open it last
night.
Slowly sitting up, Grace opened the box,
and inside was a tiny, exquisite doll that looked a bit like her. It was dressed in a
lawyer’s suit, looking so cute.
Inside the box was a handwritten card
from Lina. ‘Grace, I wish that you’ll be happy every day and that you’ll move closer toward your dreams!
‘PS: Press the doll’s left palm for a
surprise!’
‘Happy? Dreams?
‘Will I still have these things?’
Grace’s hand reached to the doll’s left
palm, which had a small protruded
button..
She pressed it gently, and a voice rang from the doll’s body. “I want to be a good lawyer for the sake of justice in my heart. Haha. I hope that those who come to me
for help in the future will find it a good
thing to have me as their lawyer after
their lawsuit is over!”
‘It’s… my voice!
‘It’s what I had said!’
Grace looked at the doll in her hand in
shock.
She vaguely remembered Lina celebrating her first day at the law firm,
and she had taken a video of her on her
.
phone when they started talking
excitedly.
At the time, this was what she said in the
video.
‘However, I didn’t expect… Lina to keep the video and cut out my voice from the video and put it in the doll.’
Grace only felt the doll getting heavy in
her hands.
‘It’s probably my greatest luck to have
met Lina!’
When Lina Sweeney came to the inn to look for Grace, the latter had washed up and changed into clean clothes.
“It’s a normal working day today. You don’t have to come and accompany me.
I’m fine,” said Grace.
“What are you talking about? Besides,
I’ve asked for leave today. Even if I go
back to work, they’ll still deduct my wages for today’s leave,” said Lina Sweeney. Then, she saw the unwrapped gift box and the doll on the bedside
table.
Lina Sweeney said, seemingly regretfully, “You’ve seen the gift? Hey, I thought I
could unwrap it with you!”
Grace chuckled. “I love the gift. Thank
you, Lina!”
“It’s great that you like it!” said Lina
Sweeney. She saw that her best friend
seemed alright. At least she did not have
two panda eyes. “What are you going to
do?”
“I’ll look for a place to stay first. After all, I
can’t stay in this inn forever. I think I’ll go
to the real estate agent today and look
for a suitable house to rent. When I’ve
settled down, I’ll go to a law firm and see
if I can find a suitable job.” Grace told
her about her plans.
