Chapter 521
“They criticized me a little and trampled over my dress,” said
Grace, not wanting to vent her frustrations there. “Sorry, you brought me here today. I’m afraid I…”
“What’s there to apologize for? It was I who neglected you and caused this to happen to you today,” Jason
interrupted her.
As he spoke, he crouched down and gently tied her ripped hem into a knot to keep it from dragging on the ground
in case she ended up stepped on it herself.
When Jason crouched down, everyone around them gasped. They had not expected Emerald City’s famous Young
Master Reed to kneel in front of a woman like that.
After helping Grace with the hem of her dress, Jason once again tilted his chin back slightly, looked up at Grace, and

Now, Jason was crouching, and his head was thrown back. On the other hand, Grace was standing with her head
lowered. The two were looking at each other, and for a moment, Grace felt as if Jason was subdued at her feet.
Oh my God. What was she thinking? Grace quickly said to
herself before shaking her head and saying, “No.”
However, she was not the only one who felt that way because
everyone else who had seen the scene also felt the same.
The god-like man that was high up in their minds was now crouching on his knees before a woman who seemed

was she who killed your fiancee, Jennifer Atkinson, in the car accident!”
As soon as Tasha Farmer said this, the air around her seemed to freeze. Jason looked up at Tasha Farmer coldly,
and the
latter was instantly made uneasy.
What was going on? She was exposing Grace to be a liar. However, why was it that she was the one feeling uneasy
now?
Furthermore, Grace showed no signs of fear. Instead… she

Jason merely gave Tasha Farmer a cold look before
withdrawing his gaze. Then, he stood up and picked Grace up

Grace let out a low cry and subconsciously put her arms.
around Jason’s neck.
“I… I didn’t hurt my foot,” Grace said as she bit her lip slightly.
“I know,” Jason replied. He showed no intention of letting her
down. Instead, he turned to Patrick and said, “I have to go,
Patrick.”
“Oh, sure,” Patrick answered. Moments later, Jason walked out of the banquet hall with Grace in his arms. His mind
was still in
a state of extreme shock.
