Chapter 44

“In the Atkinson family’s opinion, I was the one who caused Jennifer’s death,” Grace said after a long
time. She’d expected

them to resent her. It was a tragedy.

1/6

It was just that before Lily had given the order to pull out her nails in prison, she had never known that
people could be so vicious!

“In my opinion, compared to her sister’s death, she would probably have been happier if you had been
the one to pass away.” Lina’s furious expression had yet to fade. “When you were sentenced back
then, it wasn’t even a month before Lily and Sean got together. With that speed, I don’t believe that Lily
didn’t have any feelings for Sean in the past.”

“This shows that the relationship between Sean and me in the past was insignificant. I know that now.
And so does the whole world. When I needed him most, he abandoned me and sided

with the people trying to persecute me.”

“It was an accident!”

“I know,” Grace allowed. “But you were there in the courtroom. The evidence. The way they painted
me. It didn’t matter that what they said wasn’t true. In reality, Lily did me a favor.”

“How’s that?” Lina was incredulous.

“By showing me who my true friends really are.”



Lina’s eyes were misted with tears.

Grace clasped her hand and squeezed. “You’ve been a good

friend to me. I hope you know how much I love and appreciate

you.”

“Stop! You’re going to make me cry! It’s what any person would’ve

done.”

Grace laughed bitterly. “Any person, like say, my parents and half-sister? Or my other friends and work
colleagues? Or, I know,

what about Sean? The man who’d vowed to love me forever.”

Lina whistled. “Wow. Okay, when you put it like that…I am a

superior human being.”

They both laughed.

“Soo,” Lina allowed. “We’ve established the shitty people in your life. Let’s talk about the good ones.”
She steepled her hands and

rested her chin on them. “How are you getting along with that

new younger brother? Do you really intend to live with him like this

forever?”



“Mm,” Grace said, nodding. “If Jay is willing to stay with me, I would be very content with the
arrangement.”

“If it were someone who didn’t know, they would think that you

two were dating and living together.” Lina asked worriedly, “What about him? He doesn’t have any
improper intentions toward you, does he?”

“No,” she said. However, for some reason, when she thought of his dark eyes and strong body, her
heart seemed to beat faster

once more.

“Hey, you…” Lina looked at the red flush on her good friend’s face and said in surprise, “Don’t tell me
that you’re interested in him!”

“No,” Grace denied. “Lina, you know, I’ve experienced so many things. Even when I was in prison, I… I
don’t intend to be

interested in anyone. Those things aren’t in the cards for me.”

When the matter of prison was brought up, Lina’s face darkened.

“Hey, maybe we can consult a doctor again, maybe-”

“No, since I don’t intend to get married, there’s no point in consulting one,” she said.

While she was in prison, she had been beaten up so brutally, that

she suffered internal hemorrhaging. Her uterus was damaged. Although she had recovered after
surgery, if she were to get pregnant in the future, she would be facing much higher risks than an
ordinary person would. If she could conceive at all.



Even the doctor had once advised her not to get pregnant in the future. The complications could prove
fatal for both her and her

baby.

But Grace had no intention of bringing a baby into this world.

What kind of life could she provide for her child? A simple existence in a shitty little apartment? And
what of the stigma her baby would bear as the child of ‘an ex-convict’? She knew how

cruel people could be and she would never do that to an innocent

baby.

Lina’s heart ached for her good friend, but she did not know how

to comfort her. She could only change the topic and say, “By the way, that younger brother of yours
after all, he was a stranger before. And I’m not saying this to take away from your happiness -you
deserve only the best things!-but when you talk about Sean and your dad and our friends… they all
knew you. This guy is a total stranger. Who’s to say he won’t someday change? Just be

careful. ok?”

“I will,” Grace said. “However, even if I don’t know much about Jay, there’s one thing I’m certain of. No
matter what, he will not

harm me.”

Lina was glad to see the smile on Grace’s face, but inside, Lina

was panicked.



Grace had walled herself off from everyone, except for this young man who was now living with her.
She cared about him, deeply.

It’s like she took all the emotion and affection she couldn’t give to

anyone else and lavished it on him.

If Jay were to hurt her… Lina wasn’t sure Grace would survive it.

Lily had been wading through the pool of the Reed family for

almost a whole night before she finally found Jason’s ring.

She was on the verge of collapse and hypothermia when she was taken to the hospital. She even had
to get an IV drip. Of course,

when she got hooked up to the drip in the hospital, she did not

forget to let her agent take photos and post them on the Internet

to gain sympathy.

After what happened, Lily held a press conference with a sickly

appearance.

At the press conference, she apologized in public and said that

because the ring was given to her by her boyfriend Sean, she

cherished it very much. On that day, she had thought that had



been the ring she was wearing when she went out. When she was outside, a friend had alerted her that
the ring was not on her hand, so she thought that it had fallen off. Therefore, in a moment of

anxiety, the situation of her asking people to help her find the ring

emerged.

“I’m sorry. It was because of my carelessness that so many sanitation workers had to help me find the
ring. I, on the other hand, stood to the side and did not look for the ring together with them. I sincerely
acknowledge my mistake.”
