Chapter 913
Grace was stunned. ‘Booked?’ In Emerald
City, even if those rich and powerful
families wanted to book such a top
restaurant, the restaurant would not
agree.
Only a handful of people in Emerald City could actually do that.
She did not understand why Jason would go to the trouble of booking the
restaurant.
When she followed Terrence to the third
floor, there was only one table left in the large hall. Jason was sitting on one side
of the table, looking through the menu in
his hands.
When he heard footsteps, he raised his
head and looked in Grace’s direction.
His dark eyes shone brightly while his thin lips smiled brightly. This image of him seemed to imprint deeply into one’s heart, making it unforgettable.
‘Is that what they meant by an eternity in
one glance?’
Grace then took a deep breath and
walked over to Jason. “Here I am. I’d like you to help me save Kyla and Nelson from Martin Weiss. Is that alright?”
Jason gently smiled. “Sit down first.”
Grace pursed her lips as Terrence helped Grace pull out her chair.
She hesitated but sat down anyway. Then, Jason handed her the menu and said, “Take a look and see if there’s
anything you’d like.”
“I didn’t come here to eat!” she said.
“I’m here to eat though.” He nonchalantly looked at her and said, “Do you
remember what I told you before? I said I
would treat you to a nice dinner if I made
money.”
Grace stiffened. That was… That was a
long time ago. It was when they lived in
that little rental house. Back then, he had
called her ‘Sis’ and she had a family!
“I just don’t know if you approve of the
venue?” he asked.
Grace knew she had to finish the meal if
she wanted to talk to him.
“You can order whatever you like. I’ve
never been here before, so I don’t know
what’s good,” she said.
“Alright.” Jason nodded and turned to the
restaurant manager standing nearby.
Moments later, the restaurant manager and Terrence left. Then, Jason seemed to
say nonchalantly, “Do you want to help Kyla Corbyn that much?”
“Yes.” She gave an affirmative answer.
“Kyla Corbyn isn’t Lina. Is she worth it?”
he continued asking.
“Yes.” It was because Kyla had helped
her when she was in trouble! Maybe it
was hard for someone like him to realize
how important it was for someone
to give you a hand and help you out when you thought you were alone and helpless!
He pursed his thin lips as he had already expected her to say that. Even after she begged him to help her find Kyla Corbyn,
everything was under his control.
The more she cared about Kyla Corbyn,
the better it would be for him!
However, when he heard her answer, he
felt uncomfortable.
‘Lina is important to her, and now Kyla Corbyn too. Even… the little boy is
important!’
