Chapter 850
Lina then told him about Chase Harper.
When she was done, she said in a
gossipy manner, “I think Chase Harper must like Grace. Otherwise, he wouldn’t
drive Grace back every time Grace
goes to talk to him about the case.
I’ve checked. He lives in the opposite
direction from Grace’s place.”
Hadwin Stephenson let out a sigh of
relief. ‘It turns out that this girl is not having a crush on another man after all.’
Even though she told him she liked
him and that she wanted to be in a
relationship with him, he was still a little
skeptical. After all, she had a long history of being infatuated with several men!
“Even if he really likes Grace, it’s still up
to her. I think she’s not in the mood for
another relationship anytime soon,” said Hadwin Stephenson.
Lina immediately looked discouraged
like a deflated balloon. “Yeah, I blame
Jason for hurting Grace so deeply. I
should’ve advised Grace not to date
Jason back then.”
Lina wanted to slap herself when she
recalled that she approved of their
relationship!
“Take it easy. If they’re destined and if
Chase Harper really likes Grace, perhaps she’d be willing to open up to Chase
Harper after a few years?” said Hadwin Stephenson.
Lina hesitated a little. “Isn’t a few years… too long?”
‘Grace will be over 30 in a few years!
‘A woman’s youth is limited!’
“Is it?” Hadwin Stephenson smiled softly.
“If you really like a person, what are a
few years? Even if you have to wait 10
or 20 years or even longer, you’ll wait anyway. If you’re unwilling to wait, then there’s a limit to your love.”
Lina stared at the man in front of her. He just said those words so carefreely as if the years he spoke of were as light as feathers and were not at all a heavy burden.
“Will you wait for me too?” She could not help asking.
Lina realized it seemed a bit
inappropriate after asking the question. They were already in a real relationship,
so there was no need for him to wait!
“Yes.” Hadwin Stephenson gave her a
definite answer. “If you haven’t come to
understand love and have yet to fall in
love with me, then I’ll wait for you, no
matter how long.”
Lina’s heart rate suddenly quickened.
‘Is this a form of… sweet talk? I… like it
very much.’ She felt a gush of sweetness pouring out of her heart, and she knew he was telling the truth.
Even if he was talking about it lightly, but his eyes told her that he would wait for
her until she understood.
Fortunately… she got the meaning. She really liked him and had fallen in love
with him!
“Hadwin Stephenson, what should I do? I think I’ll love you more and more,” grumbled Lina.
He was a little stunned, then he said, “If you take out the words ‘I think,’ I’ll like what you just said better.”
Lina giggled and suddenly thought of a question. “Then again, when did you fall
in love with me? I don’t think we spent
much time together three years ago. It can’t be because I was too good that
night and made you unable to forget me, right? Then it would mean that you fell in love with my body before falling for me.”
Lina started letting her imagination run wild again.
Hadwin Stephenson almost choked on
his saliva. ‘What the hell is this girl
thinking?
‘She wasn’t any good at all that night. She was like a combination of a playboy and a bully… However, I didn’t resist…!
At the thought of that night, Hadwin Stephenson’s face started to flush even though he was usually always calm and
calculating.
