Chapter 815
‘Who is it? Who said that?’ It was so
sweet but so sad that she wanted to shed
tears.
“I’ll protect you forever. I won’t let you suffer the slightest injustice and let anyone hurt you anymore.”
‘That’s… Jay’s voice… It’s what Jay once
said to me.’
Grace squatted on the ground and felt
that all she could hear were the words
Jason had once said to her.
‘Don’t think about these words. Don’t
think about them… she kept telling
herself in her head.
Then… It seemed that there was the
sound of footsteps. The pattering of footsteps sounded so clear.
‘Whose footsteps are these?’
A pair of black leather shoes caught her
eye.
She slowly raised her head and caught sight of the familiar face.
‘It’s Jay’s face… Just like the one I saw in
Drunken Days.
‘Is it because I’m drunk? Is that why I’m
hearing voices and also hallucinating?’
Grace staggered to her feet, half-crying and half-laughing at the figure in front of her as she said, “Don’t… show your
face to me again.”
She felt even worse when he showed up.
He made her calm mind fluctuate again.
Jason stared at the person in front of
him.
‘Is she drunk?’ There was no clarity
in her almond-shaped eyes and her cheeks were red. She stood swaying as
if she would fall to the ground the next
moment.
He stepped forward and put his hand around her waist to keep her from
falling.
However, his action made her frown, and a flash of pain came over her face.
“Is it still hurting?” She realized at once that his hand was now resting on the same spot on her waist where she had
been kicked.
When the scene of that man kicking her came into mind, he felt that he had gone too easy on the man to have just crippled
one of his legs.
Grace looked at the person in front of her with misty eyes. ‘He’s asking me if it
hurts… I’m in pain. How could I not be in pain?’
She was in pain when she got kicked.
However, that pain seemed to be better than this pain of seeing him!
‘Jay… Jay…!’
These days, she kept telling herself to forget him, but she would always dream
of him at night. Then, she would wake up
with wet eyes.
“So what… if it hurts?” She smiled
stupidly and suddenly put her hands around Jason’s neck.
5/7
hurts… I’m in pain. How could I not be in pain?’
She was in pain when she got kicked.
However, that pain seemed to be better than this pain of seeing him!
‘Jay… Jay…!’
These days, she kept telling herself to forget him, but she would always dream
of him at night. Then, she would wake up with wet eyes.
“So what… if it hurts?” She smiled
stupidly and suddenly put her hands around Jason’s neck.
Jason’s body stiffened immediately, but he did not push Grace away. He just lowered his head and stared at her.
Terrence, who had been following Jason, was frightened.
‘What is… Master Reed going to do? He
has been following Miss Cummins out of Drunken Days, and now… he’s just
standing there with her around his neck.
Since it was Master Reed who broke up with Miss Cummins at the beginning,
Terrence knew that with Master Reed’s
character, there was no room for
change.
However, the scene now… made him a
little unsure.
Grace smiled. Her drunken smile in the
night was so beautiful that Jason could
not turn his eyes away.
Then, she gently laid her hand playfully
upon his cheek, over his forehead, nose,
cheek, lips, and finally, on his eyelashes.
“Jay, tell me… Why are your eyelashes…
so beautiful… They’re so beautiful that
I’m… I’m jealous…” she said aimlessly.
