Jason felt as if he had once again been pricked in his heart.
What a shame for the gown though. I only wore it once and its now ripped, Grace said with regret. Even if the gown could be repaired, it would take a lot of work to mend it because it was of high quality and now had such a big tear in it.
Ill buy you a new one as long as youre all right, said Jason.
Grace shook her head and said with a smile, Im fine. Im not
as fragile as you think.
However, Graces smile made Jason feel even more. uncomfortable. Yes. Although she looked thin and frail, she
had always been tenacious.
Having been with her for so many days, Jason understood her adamancy more than anyone. However, because of that, he felt even more guilty.
It was his momentary slip that had caused her to arm her delicate body when she need not be so strong.
Sorry Jason said out of the blue.
Grace was confused. What are you sorry for?
I should have hastened to help you find out the truth about your case and clear your name, said Jason.
Its not your fault. What are you apologizing for? Im glad enough that youre helping me, Grace said sincerely, her eyes
full of trust in him.
Is that so? Jason muttered. He could not help but lower his head to kis her lips.
Only with this kis could he confess all his guilt, silently telling. her how much he regretted it. He would stand up for her for the incident and make sure that no one dared gossip in front
of her in the future.

Jason kised Grace deeply and passionately.
While Grace passively accepted Jasons kis that made her almost lose her breath, she struggled to remind him that they were outside the banquet hall and that someone would pass by at any moment!
Nevertheless, each time she tried to speak, his lips would cover hers and swallow her voice.
It was so much so that Grace could hardly say a complete sentence. Not to mention, she almost lost herself in his kis,
nearly becoming spellbound.
Jason slowly opened his eyes and looked to one side.
Consequently, he saw Brian and Evelyn exiting the banquet hall from the corner of his eyes.
Naturally, the pair caught sight of Jason and Grace kising and stopped short!
Brians pupils constricted and his body stiffened immediately. His hands, which had fallen to his sides, tightened into fists.
He himself could not understand why even though he had kept on telling himself not to care about Grace, he still did when he saw Grace kising Jason.
Evelyn watched on with jealousy and envy. Despite being Brians girlfriend, the two had yet to kis.
Now, Grace and Jason were kising each other as if there was no one else there. It made Evelyn gnash her teeth with hatred. She did not know what Jason found so attractive about Grace, a woman who had been to prison.
When their kis finally ended, Grace gasped for air while Jason pressed her face against his chest.
