Chapter 1770
He was kissing her, but what Brian said today filled his mind again.
He had never felt it was wrong to do whatever it took to reach his goal. It was what Old master Reed had taught
him.
It was not the process that mattered but the result, and the result was what he had expected at that time.
However, he was now afraid that she would learn how despicable he was. She already knew that he had coldly
looked on as she was sent to jail back then, and it had once made her so resistant toward him. If she found out
about the rest of the things, would she think he was too despicable?

“What’s the matter? Why did you say that all of a sudden?” asked

She paused and heard his voice say… “Do you regret saving Brian? Your hands wouldn’t have gotten so bad. It

simple act of holding his face was so difficult for her now. “I don’t regret it because I don’t want to feel guilty in the
future. I was sure that you’d come up the hill to find me and save me. I was sure that if I held on a little longer, I

“What about Brian? What if he loves you enough to risk everything too?” asked Jason.
Grace hesitated a little, remembering how he had shouted at her several times to let go and leave with Mason
when she was holding onto his wrist to stop him from falling.

She could never reciprocate Brian’s feelings in this life.
Grace said, “Jay, my heart is too small to hold so many people. I don’t regret using these hands to grab onto Brian
