It was only two hours after her grandmothers death that Graces
first uncle, second uncle, and third aunt arrived at the hospital one
after another at the hospitals notice.
As for Graces grandfather, Old Mr. Kelleigh, he did not come to the hospital on the pretext of poor health. He feared that he would. be too sad and thus worsen his health after seeing the body.
Grace did not know how her grandmother would feel about her grandfathers comments.
When First Uncle, Second Uncle, and Third Aunt saw Grace, their first reaction was that Grace had to pay for her grandmothers grave and funeral on her mothers behalf. She could not get away from it!
Grace could not help getting angry. Her grandmother had just passed away, but First Uncle, Second Uncle, and Third Aunt only cared about money!
Pay? asked Jason, who had been silent all along.
Only then did First Uncle and Second Uncle realized there was another person in the room. The haste and the fact that their niece was wearing a wedding dress was too much to notice.
First Uncle and Second Uncles faces immediately paled as they recognized him as the man they had met at the Miller familys
house that night.
At first, they wanted to send Grace to the Miller familys house to
marry their simpleton son, but that night, the man burst in with a
bunch of people and took Grace away.
After the event, they were detained by the local police station for several days!
Why Why are you here? stammered First Uncle and Second
Uncle.
After seeing Jason, Third Aunt said, Your boyfriends here, Grace. If you cant come up with the money, ask him to pay it for you. Youll pay for your grandmothers funeral and grave, wont
you?
Grace was about to say something when Jason put his hand. lightly on her shoulder and said to Third Aunt, Of course, its all right to pay, but can you afford it?
Third Aunt looked puzzled. What does that mean?
First Uncle and Second Uncle dragged Third Aunt away and briefly explained to her what had happened at the Miller familys
house.
Third Aunt was not at home that night, so her impression of Jason
was limited to when Grace brought Jason to visit her grandmother
a while back.

However, now that she knew Jason was the man who left with
Grace that day, Third Aunts expression changed. She looked at him in disbelief and mumbled, Who the hell are you?
Im Graces boyfriend. I think Ive already made that clear, Jason
said lightly.
Why didnt you tell us that youre the one who took Grace away from the Miller familys house? exclaimed Third Aunt.
Jason chuckled and retorted, Why would I?
There was a cold, piercing look in his eyes that made Third Aunts body tremble, fear rising in her heart.
This man was not simple. The look in his eyes had some sort of unreachable coldness. How did she not notice it last time?
However, she then seemed to have thought of something and calmed down. It doesnt matter who you are. I think youre wasting your time coming here to strut around. You cant mess with our family. Just one word from my daughter and you and Grace may not be able to stay in Emerald City any longer.
First Uncle and Second Uncle seemed to have been reminded of something, their expressions changing as they became arrogant. Yes, we have backup now!
