Chapter 930
‘Is this man… the benefactor… the
paralegal mentioned?’
What benefactor could have such
power?
Jason glanced coldly at the man who
was not wearing a mask. Then, he
ordered his subordinate who was
following him. “Take good care of this
man later and let him know what it feels
like to be slapped.”
“Yes,” the subordinate answered. ‘The
moment Master Reed asked me to take
care of this fellow, he’s probably going to
suffer,” he thought to himself.
The man without a mask frembled. When
he saw Jason trying to carry Grace into a nearby black Bentley, the man suddenly shouted, “Who the hell are you? Is….. Is she really a mere paralegal?”
‘How could someone create such a
commotion for a mere paralegal who’s not even a stunning beauty?
The man just felt like everything was
getting out of hand.
He thought he only accepted a deal, but
look at how it turned out!
No one answered him as Jason had
already gotten into the car with Grace
in his arms. Then, the car slowly drove
away from the scene.
In the car, Grace said to Jason, “Thank
you.”
If it had not been for him, she would
have suffered today.
“It was smart of you to contact me. Do you know who you’ve offended?” he said.
She shook her head. She had offended
some people, but not enough for anyone
to do such a thing. Therefore, for a
moment, she could not think of anything.
“That’s the second time,” he said.
“Second time?” She was stunned.
“Didn’t someone try to hurt you near the neighborhood you currently live in? It’s the second time now,” he said.
“You mean… They’re from the same
gang?”
“We can find out after checking,” Jason
said coldly. However, his gaze softened
when he saw the messy state she was in.
“Does it hurt a lot?” he asked softly.
“Sort of, but… it’s tolerable,” she said. The burning pain in her cheeks was less severe than the pain she had
experienced in prison.
He frowned and caressed the trail of
blood that oozed from the corner of her
lips.
Those slaps had injured the corners of
her mouth.
“It’s just some blood. I can just wipe it
off,” she said, trying to take out a tissue
to wipe the oozing blood.
However, he held her hand and said,
“Don’t bother.”
‘What does he mean by that?’ She blinked her eyes and saw his face
magnifying before her eyes.
She felt something warm and moist on
the corners of her lips.
‘He… He’s licking my blood!’
Grace suddenly stiffened, and she could
feel a terrible burn on the spot he had
licked.
She had no idea how long it took, but
he seemed to finally clean up the blood
at the corner of her lips. He touched his forehead lightly against hers and said
with a hint of self-reproach, “I’m sorry
you were hurt.”
‘Does he have any idea how ambiguous this is?’ thought Grace, but she could not
seem to lift her stiff arm at the moment,
let alone push him away.
“It’s not your fault… I was hurt. It’s good
enough that you could come and save
me,” she said before gulping suddenly.
‘It’s not my fault?’ Jason laughed at
himself. “I didn’t protect you well. The last
thing I want is for you to get hurt.”
Grace was silent. She could smell his
scent, and it was so intimate.
