She did not have any money.
As for what she had learned over the years, they were even more useless to him. The team of lawyers
in Reed Group was more experienced than she was.
The only thing she had now was herself.
Her penniless self was all she had.
Grace dropped her eyes and got down on her knees to kneel before Jason. "I beg you. Take me to see
Hadwin Stephenson. I want to see Lina with my own eyes."
His black eyes stared at her kneeling figure. His face was full of shock and... anger. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
"Do you know what you're doing?" He glared at her, his chest heaving.
He knew very well that she had pride of her own in her heart. Even when she was ridiculed, she still
wanted to maintain her small, trampled dignity.
Otherwise, she would not have refused him repeatedly.
However, she was now willing to kneel for Lina Sweeney, so... did this mean that Lina Sweeney was
more important than her dignity?
"Yes," she said without hesitation as she lowered her head further. "If you'll bring me to Lina and make
sure that Lina is safe, then I'll do whatever you want."
This was the only thing she could give.
He stared at her with a look of uneasiness that he did not even notice.
"What if I refuse?" His voice was as cold as ice.
Her body quivered, then she slowly raised her eyes to look at him.
He pressed his thin lips tightly and just stared at her.
Her face grew pale, and she took a deep breath. "All right, I see." Then, she got up, turned around,
went out of the room, and headed toward the exit of the house.
When she could not strike a deal with the only thing she could trade, then the rest was up to her.
She did not ask for more because she knew that when people were reluctant to agree to some things,
to ask again would only be a disgrace.
Just like when she had begged the judge to believe her in court and when she begged those people to
let her go in prison...
As a result... she became a joke.
Just as Grace reached the door, suddenly a hand grabbed her arm and pulled her out, dragging her all
the way to where the car was parked.
Grace stared blankly at Jason, unable to react for a moment.
Jason opened the car door and almost threw Grace into the passenger seat before slamming the door
shut. Then, he got behind the wheel.
"Fasten your seat belt," he said, his face livid as he started the car.
