“Yes.”

“Then… Where’s your brother?”

When he said this, she stiffened. The

word ‘brother’ once felt so close to her, but now it felt so far away.

“He… has gone back to his own home. I was only taking him in temporarily,”

muttered Grace. She then returned to

her seat, lowered her head, and began

to eat her unfinished meal.

Chase Harper only stared at Grace.

‘Is the ‘brother’ who at first seemed to be

monopolizing her no longer with her?

‘Is she alone now? Does that mean I…

have a chance?’ The idea grew stronger and stronger in his mind.

Neither of the two in the restaurant

noticed a black sedan parked a short

distance from the restaurant.

The man in the car was staring at them through the window.

Terrence did not even dare to breathe.

He just looked at his boss who was in front of him in fear before looking at

Grace and the man called Chase Harper

in the restaurant.

After finding out Grace’s current

location, Master Reed just made him

drive over, and… he just kept watching.

‘When is he gonna stop?’

Terrence just wished Grace and the man

could finish their meal soon.

After lunch, Grace had to go back to

the law firm. Chase Harper insisted on driving Grace there.

“I have something to do anyway. We’re

heading in the same direction, so I can

drop you off,” said Chase Harper.

“Thank you… then,” said Grace.

In the car, Chase Harper asked about

the case and the possibility of Baldwin

getting compensation.

“There’s little chance,” Grace hesitated

but still answered, “According to what I’ve been able to find out so far, the

perpetrator has already transferred all

their assets. They don’t have any assets

in their name, and the assets that were

transferred have all been re-transferred.

Unless we can now find out what else is

in their name, we’re just going to win the

case without getting any money.”

“How can such a person exist? She hurt a living person!” Chase Harper said

angrily.

“There are many such people in the

world,” said Grace. The selfishness

of human nature was sometimes

unimaginably evil.

It was just like the reason she was imprisoned. It was because the witnesses. who testified against her were easily

bribed to fabricate facts for money.

Those people only cared about money. They never thought that the people they testified against would be unjustly

imprisoned and would suffer for nothing while getting their lives ruined.

Chase Harper seemed to have also

thought about Grace’s imprisonment. “If

only… I had known you earlier.”

“Hmm?”

“Well… Maybe I could have been of some

help. Maybe… you wouldn’t have to

suffer so much,” he said.

Grace smiled. Chase Harper was a simple man. Although he was older than

her, his social circle kept him from seeing

much of the dark side of the world.

“Even if you knew me then, it wouldn’t change anything,” she said. Though it may be a blow to his good intentions,

she did not want him to have any affection

for her.
