Chapter 324

"... No," Lina Sweeney said, but she could guess why Jason came to her. It was probably because of

Grace.

"If not, why did he come looking for you so late at night?" Hadwin Stephenson said coolly. "What

woman in Emerald City can make him do that? Or was it because of him that you didn't come looking

for me all these years?"

There was a faint hint of jealousy in his voice.

Lina Sweeney was speechless. Come on, if only she was up to Jason's standards! Jason was after

Grace, all right?

"It has nothing to do with him. I just never looked for you," Lina Sweeney said. Too many things had

happened since she came back. How could she have time to think of anything else?

Besides, she only regarded it as a foreign encounter and their night as an accident. She planned to

keep this secret for the rest of her life. She did not even tell her parents and Grace.

He looked angrier than ever. He glared at her fiercely while he pressed his thin lips together, and at

last, all he said was, "You have a way of pissing people off."

He was good at controlling his emotions since he was little. As he was born out of wedlock, he had

always known to endure his joys and sorrows before he was certain.

However, she was the only one who seemed to particularly affect his emotions. He seemed to be able

to completely release his emotions in front of her and did not need to have any burden.

The few days they spent together were both sweet and painful for him. He would often think of them in

his spare time over the three years.

The happier those days were, the more painful it was when she left without saying goodbye.

There was a knock on the door. Hadwin Stephenson gathered himself. "Come in." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Someone pushed through the door and came in. It was the guard outside, and behind him were Jason

and Grace.

Lina Sweeney's eyes lit up when she saw her best friend. "Grace." She did not expect her best friend to

come here.

Meanwhile, Grace immediately ran to Lina Sweeney, nervously saying, "How are you feeling? What

happened? Are you all right?"

"I'm all right. I'm fine!" Lina Sweeney hurriedly said.

Grace was relieved. "Why did, uh, this man bring you here? Do you know him?" She could not help

asking.

Lina Sweeney smiled awkwardly. "That's... a long story." Then, as if she thought of something, she

suddenly said, "By the way, did you tell my parents about me being taken away?"

"Not yet, but... I called the police," Grace said.

"I'm screwed. The police will probably call my parents," Lina Sweeney wailed and was in a hurry to

leave.

She would probably have to deal with her parents' crying and screaming if she went back.

However, a hand was in her way. "Did I say you can leave?"

Lina Sweeney was shocked while Grace lunged forward, protectively shielding her best friend behind

her."You have no right to detain anyone, and I've called the police. If you don't want any trouble, you'd

better let Lina go."
