Seeing that Grace was trying to finish her work for the day, Chase shook his head. Excuse me. Youre right. Ill go since youre busy.
Watching Chase leave, Jason suddenly grabbed Graces chin with his fingers and half-forced her to face him straight. I dont like you seeing other men like this. He doesnt look trustworthy.
Grace burst out laughing. What are you thinking? I dont have any intentions towards him.
Does that mean he doesnt have those kinds of feelings towards you? he asked back.
She was at a loss for words.
Is he the colleague who likes you? he asked.
Yes, Ive already asked my friend Claire to help discourage him. Hes a nice guy, and he means well. Im just not looking to get into a relationship. I didnt expect him to approach me today.
If you dont like him, you should refuse him directly, Jason said. Hes not worthy of you.
Grace laughed. You probably think too much of me. It is me thats not good enough for him. He has a house, a car, and a
steady job. In our workplace, many girls like him.
You are worth much more than that, he said quietly.
In his tone, there was a desire for possession that he had not even noticed.

After Grace cleaned the road and was preparing to pack up tools to return to the Sanitation Service Center, Mia suddenly rushed up from the side of the building and said to Grace, Can you please forgive me? I really cant lose this current job. This job is very important to me! I beg you, tell our director that you forgive me and ask him to cancel the order for dismissal, okay?
After thinking about it for a while, Mia still felt that Grace was most likely the one that she had offended.

Grace shook her head. Youre mistaken. I have no power here. Im not sure what you did or why youre being let go, but it has nothing to do with me. I have no connections with your director
either.
Thats impossible! Mia said anxiously. Youre the only one Ive ever offended. Could it be that Sean saw you like that and couldnt bear it, and so he avenged you? Is that why I was
condemned?
Thinking it over, there was only this possibility.
Only now did Grace finally understand the reason for Mia coming to her and begging her for forgiveness. Mia, youre chasing shadows. Sean he has no regard for me. He has not
forgiven me, and I can assure you, hed not exert his influence to lift a finger for me!
You need to fix this, Mia argued.
Really? Grace was the victim of this bitchs machinations, but somehow Mia felt like she owed her something!? That was rich.
Look. I dont know what the hell youre talking about. And if you think Sean is to blame, then you should take it up with him, Grace said coldly, then she pulled Jasons hand and went around Mia.
Mia still wanted to chase after her. However, when Jason turned around and gave her a light glance, she suddenly stopped in her
tracks.
That line of sight suddenly caused her to feel a sense of fear. It was like if she continued to chase Grace and pester her, then her fate might end up even worse than it was now.
What what was going on? The mans face was mostly covered by too-long hair, so she couldnt really see his appearance. However, the eyes of this man scared her to the extreme.
