Chapter 855
It was because… that would not lead to
anything.
Just like when someone wanted to make
her a scapegoat as the powerless her
could easily become an abandoned
pawn!
A flash of embarra**ment came over
Chase Harper’s face, but he said with
great certainty, “I… I know I can’t do much, but… but if I had known you then, I would have done everything I could to help you!’
The car had come to a stop at the
*
building of Grace’s law firm.
Grace leaned over slightly and looked at the man next to her carefully.
The man looked ordinary, but he had a power that warmed people’s hearts. After going through so much, she knew that perhaps ordinariness was the most precious of all.
‘Chase Harper, you’re a nice person and a good man, but I’m not right for you. I’ve been through a lot of things
and I’ve been disappointed in love and
in marriage. I just want to focus on my
career now. The rest doesn’t matter to
me!” said Grace.
“Then I can wait. I’ll wait until you’re
willing to focus on relationships and marriage!” As if with great courage, Chase Harper reached out and took
Grace’s hand.
He held her hand so firmly and his eyes
were so clear.
These hands were completely different
from Jason’s, but they made people feel
warm.
However… “Don’t, because there’s no
point. Chase Harper, you’re a good person, but a relationship requires effort from both parties, not just one. You’re great, but I don’t love you,” said Grace.
Chase Harper’s face gradually turned
pale.
Grace knew that her words next were
only going to get crueler.
Knowing that she was an ex-convict from
the beginning, he respected her, never
looked down on her, and stood up for her
when many were mocking her.
He was great, and there were qualities in him that she thought were noble.
If she really chose to be with him, then maybe she would spend the rest of her life in a plain but sweet way.
She thought he would make a very good
husband too.
However, just because he was a nice
man, she did not want to be emotionally
indebted to him.
Clearing up any confusion might be the
best thing for them.
“Because I don’t love you, it doesn’t matter how long you wait. If I love you,
I’ll even marry you tomorrow,” Grace said
word after word.
Every word made Chase Harper’s face
paler.
“We… can slowly develop feelings for each other. I’ll work hard to give you a
bright future,” he said. He left the
Sanitation Service Center and started
a business in hopes of being successful so that he could get a chance to win her
over!
“But sometimes, some feelings just won’t develop no matter how much time you’ve
put in,” said Grace as she unbuckled her
seat belt. “You’re great, but I don’t love
you, so don’t waste your time on me. Really. It’s not worth it!”
Just as Grace was about to open the door and get out of the car, suddenly,
there was the sound of a seat belt
unbuckling.
Chase Harper turned to the side and
hugged her.
