    Chapter 112


    Zoe almost fainted.


    She had not been expecting the reason for her suffering such a serious injury to be that Jason had


    wanted to vent Grace’s anger for her.


    Why was it Grace?!


    In the past, Jennifer Atkinson had been a famous beauty! As for Grace… Well, even if Zoe admitted


    that Grace was a good-looking woman, after three years of imprisonment, she was now a street


    sweeper. Without maintaining her looks at all in those years, how beautiful could she be?


    How could Jason, who had gotten used to beautiful women, be interested in Grace?!


    “So don’t go and make trouble for Grace anymore,” Sean warned his sister. “Also, you’d better bury


    what I said to you today in your heart. Don’t say it to anyone. Not even your parents! Jason said that he


    doesn’t want others to know about it. Me telling you this today is already a big mistake.”


    Zoe stopped talking. If it had been someone else, she could still have found a way to vent her anger.


    But if it was Jason… if


    she really provoked this person, the Stevens family might not be able to stay in Emerald City anymore.


    That person…some said that he was the king of Emerald City, some said that he was the god of war in


    the business world, and some said that he was simply… crazy.


    It was said that there was once a woman who had bought


    out a hotel manager and acquired the details of the room.


    number along with a set of spare keys for his room in the hotel.


    because she wanted to get close to him. She wanted to have a


    romantic encounter.


    As a result, the woman was wrapped in bedsheets and thrown


    directly out onto the road outside of the entrance of the hotel.


    Later, the woman’s family business started encountering trouble everywhere. The daughter of an


    originally-rich family became a pauper in less than a year, and she could only sell herself in a nightclub


    to make a living.


    As for the hotel manager who had been bribed, it was said that no one saw him in Emerald City ever


    again. Some said. that he had left the city, some said that he died, and some said that he was


    kidnapped by a human trafficker to do


    menialbor.


    In short, there were all kinds of rumors about what had happened.


    All in all, Jason was definitely a vicious person. If she offended him, she would drag her entire family


    down with her.


    It was also after the incident that many of the notable


    socialites in the city no longer dared to target Jason.


    Although Jason was physically attractive and rich, who wanted to take that risk? After all, the socialite


    who had


    be a nightclubdy had be the subject of jokes and served as a warning to these Emerald


    City socialites.


    “Did you hear me?” Sean asked again.


    “I… I know. It’s no big deal. I just won’t mess with Grace in the


    future,” Zoe said reluctantly.


    Zoe took a few awkward steps and left the garden. Sean


    turned to Lily and said, “Let’s go back to the hall.”


    However, at that moment, Lily’s brows were tightly knitted


    together, and her expression was extremely unsightly.


    “What’s wrong? You can’t ept that Jason fell for Grace?” Sean asked. After all, Grace had killed


    Jennifer Atkinson in the


    past.


    “Do you think… that Jason might reopen the case for Grace?” Lily asked.


    “Reopen the case?”


    “After all, with Jason’s abilities, it would not be impossible for him to clear Grace’s name. If Grace’s


    case were really reopened, then my sister’s death…” Lily gritted her teeth and clenched her fist tightly


    as her body trembled.

    “Don’t think too much. Do you think it will be so easy to reverse the court’s verdict? All the evidence


    back then pointed to her. Even if Jason wanted to reverse the verdict for her, I’m afraid it wouldn’t be


    easy.” Sean patted his fiancée’s shoulder andforted her. “What’s more, Jason is just acting on the


    spur of the moment. With Grace’s status, it’ll be impossible for her to marry into the Reed family. I’m


    afraid that the old man of the Reed family will be the first to reject her.”


    When Lily heard this, her eyebrows gradually rxed. “That’s for the best. Otherwise, my sister would


    have died in vain. I


    knew I had let her off too easily when she was in prison!”


    Sean pursed his thin lips. “Let her off too easily?” The scene of her ten fingers bleeding and every bone


    in her fingers being broken shed in his mind again.


    Back then, he had watched coldly from the side. One could even say that he had been an aplice.


    If one day Grace wanted Jason to seek justice for her, then he and the Stevens family would…
