Chapter 818
Hadwin Stephenson’s face paled as he
immediately lunged right in front of Lina,
saying, “Master Reed, Lina’s just doing this for her friend. If it has irritated you,
I’ll bear the consequences for her.”
“Hadwin Stephenson, I don’t need
you
to help me. I can bear the consequences
myself!” said Lina.
“How are you going to do that?! What
do
you think you can bear?” Hadwin
Stephenson said angrily.
“I’ll just let him beat me to a pulp! I’m mentally prepared for that!”
“Lina, are you trying to piss me off?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHadwin Stephenson found that his temper, which had always been under control previously, would always go
haywire when it came to Lina.
Jason stared coldly at Lina, clearly not intending to let her go that easily.
However, Grace, who was so drunk that
she had fallen asleep, suddenly rubbed her head against Lina’s shoulder. She said in a mutter, “Lina… Don’t be
afraid… I’ll protect Lina…”
Lina’s eyes reddened immediately. ‘She still wants to protect me even if she’s
drunk?’
Jason stared intently at the drunk Grace.
A moment later, he turned around and
left without saying a word.
Terrence, who was next to him, quickly
followed him.
Lina felt a layer of cold sweat on her
back when she was blown by the cold
wind.
“You were lucky just now. You might
not be so lucky next time,” Hadwin Stephenson said to Lina.
She bit her lip. ‘I know I got lucky. Jason only let me go because of Grace.
If it weren’t for Grace’s words, I’d probably have to face tragic consequences!”
“Alright, get in the car first,” said Hadwin Stephenson. The pair helped Grace into the car before driving in the
direction of the rental house.
When they arrived at Grace’s house, Lina helped her best friend to change. into her pajamas. After tucking Grace
in, she left the rental house with Hadwin
Stephenson.
When they got into the car, Lina spoke up first before Hadwin Stephenson could speak. “I know I was reckless
today, but I
just couldn’t help it. When I think about how much pain he caused Grace, I just… really want to beat him!”
“But he’s Jason, Jason of Emerald City!” said Hadwin Stephenson.
“But Grace’s my best friend!” Lina’s voice
was a little muffled. It was as if this stood
for everything.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHadwin Stephenson’s eyes flashed with
shock. He always knew that Lina and
Grace were very close. When Grace
was in prison, this girl could give up the opportunity to study abroad and
run back to work on Grace’s case. This
sacrifice was not something any friend could do.
He thought that was the limit of the
friendship between the two women, but
it turned out to be more than that.
“Why are you willing to do so much
for her?” Hadwin Stephenson’s voice
cracked.
“Because Grace chose to trust me when
I was at my most helpless,” said Lina. The scene of that year seemed to appear
before her eyes.
