Yes.
Then Wheres 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 Graces 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. Were
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.
Theres little chance, Grace hesitated
but still answered, According to what Ive been able to find out so far, the
perpetrator has already transferred all
their assets. They dont 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, were 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 Graces imprisonment. If
only I had known you earlier.
Hmm?
Well Maybe I could have been of some
help. Maybe you wouldnt 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 wouldnt 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.
