Youre not my She made a conscious effort to deny it, but in the middle of her sentence, the words suddenly seemed to get stuck in her throat.
His black eyes were fixed on her. Those eyes seemed to show some self-mockery
and sadness.
Lina only felt a tightness in her chest. His eyes made her breathless. It was as if
she owed him something.
There was silence in the car.
What? Why wont you continue? His
voice rang just like that.
I I wasnt going to say anything, she
said guiltily.
Come on, why do I feel guilty? she thought to herself. They ought to know that they were not a real couple!
Its just that some of his words will lead me to have some misunderstandings. Ill mistake that he might actually like me and that maybe he has liked me until
now.
However, how can it be?
What kind of woman hasnt a man like
him seen? Will he really like me? Or some
of his actions and words are just so that I can fall in love with him undoubtedly?
When I do fall in love with him, he may just kick me away like when I had left without saying goodbye back then!
Where do you wanna eat today? he
asked, changing the subject.
Just find a place with a mall nearby. I want to go to the mall and buy some clothes for Grace after the meal. She got a new job today, but her current clothes are from many years back and not
suitable for formal occasions, said Lina.
Grace did not take any of the clothes
Jason bought for Grace, and Graces
clothes now were the ones she had
before she went to prison. Although some of the clothes were of good quality, they were out of style and the colors had
faded.
As Hadwin Stephenson started the car, he said, Youre pretty nice to Grace. You always have her on your mind. I wonder when youll have me on your mind like
that too.
Ahem Ahem She broke into a
sudden cough and said lamely, I I
always have you on my mind.
Really? He glanced at her out of the
corner of his eye.

If this woman has me on her mind, I wouldnt be so miserable! Ive made
my feelings very clear, but the woman doesnt seem to understand.
Shes so stupid I dont know what to do
with her!
Grace wore her old formal suit to work at
the law firm the next day.
It was a little worn, and the matching white shirt was a little yellow at the collar, but at least it was wearable. Besides, she had no spare money to buy
new clothes right now.
Lawyer Carter was a man in his 40s.
Grace knew in advance that his success
rate was so-so and he had a mediocre
reputation in the industry. However, since he could stay in the business for more than ten years, she would surely have something to learn from him.
After a short briefing on the work arrangement, Lawyer Carter eyed Grace and said, Ive studied your case. You were able to reverse the case so quickly. Did someone help you out?
Yes, replied Grace.
Whether it was a game between her and Jason, she had to admit that she would
not have been able to reverse the case
so quickly without him.
Who was it? Lawyer Carter asked
curiously.
