    Chapter 1081


    Jason reached out and picked up the ancient sword.


    Grace was immediately taken aback. The sword… was giving her a sense of danger.


    “Remember when I told you that someone from the Reed family used to keep a woman here? That


    woman fell in love with him, but she still killed that man with this sword,” Jason


    said lightly as if it was just a story.


    ‘However… This actually happened!’ Grace was shocked. What he was saying now was a plot twist


    from what he saidst


    time.


    She thought the woman left with the man from the Reed family after falling in love with him.


    It never urred to her that the woman… would use this


    sword to kill the man she fell in love with!


    “Why? Shame? Remorse? Regret?


    ‘Because she fell in love with another man when she had


    someone else she loved deeply?


    “Was that why she made this choice?

    “Is it called… Sshes of Blood because blood is spattered on


    the sword?” she asked incoherently.


    “That’s not all,” he said and walked to the wall lined with heavy


    curtains, giving them a jerk.


    The wall behind the curtains immediately caught Grace’s eye.


    This wall was different from the other several walls. It was not renovated and looked just like what it


    looked like back then. The sshes of discolored blood on the wall were so obvious!


    Grace suddenly felt an urge to throw up!


    The many bloodstains on the wall were preservation of incriminating evidence! ‘Is it called Sshes of


    Blood because


    of the wall?’


    “If you want to leave, you can kill me just as the woman did and then you may leave,” he said as he


    came up to her and held out the sword in his hand with its hilt toward her. “Do you


    want to kill me?”


    There was a touch of madness in those bright ck eyes. He was like a gambler who was gambling


    what ce her upied in her heart, and the wager was his life!


    Grace stared nkly at the man in front of her. “Kill him? I’ve never thought of it!’


    Even… Even if she had thought he was going to lock her up for life, she never thought of killing him!


    He stared at her shocked eyes with a stunning, relieved smile


    on his lips. “You can’t bear to do so, can you? You don’t want me to die, do you?”


    Her throat was dry. She wanted to refute him, but even spitting out a word seemed so difficult.


    “You still have me in your heart, so one day, you’ll fall in love with me again. Grace, let’s make a bet


    whether you’ll fall in love with me again. I’ll bet you the rest of my life,” he said


    firmly.
