Chapter 192


    Jason pulled Grace into the car and ordered, “Get us to Royal Court.”


    “Okay.” Terrence acknowledged as he carefully observed the expression of the two people sitting in the


    backseat via the rearview mirror.


    Grace’s head was lowered, so he could not see her expression. However, Jason’s mood seemed to be


    less vtilepared to before he entered Grace’s ce. That was one small miracle, he supposed.


    The Royal Court Restaurant was the city’s most famous. It was Michelin-starred and the diners here


    were solelyprised of the rich and famous. Regr people would not be able to afford a meal here.


    When the car came to a halt at the entrance of the restaurant, Jason naturally held Grace’s hand once


    they got out of the car.


    She wanted to pull her hand out of his grip, but his hold on her was firm.


    “Sis, don’t move. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what I’ll do to rein you in,” Jason casually said.


    Grace was dumbfounded and stopped struggling.


    He led her into the restaurant. The staff in the restaurant were very respectful and courteous toward


    Jason, but they would throw a few side-eyes and weird nces at Grace.


    Grace knew very well that her cheap clothes were a world of differencepared to the restaurant’s


    ssy interior.


    “Mr. Reed, you’re here.” The restaurant manager greeted enthusiastically. “The same private room?”


    “Yes,” Jason replied.


    Before the manager could lead the way, Grace’s vision caught sight of someone. She was stunned for


    a moment.


    “That is... Maria!”


    Grace’s impression of Maria was that she was a spoiled princess. Her family owned a factory. When


    Grace bumped into her before this, Maria had spewed plenty of mockeries and even set her up to be


    ridiculed and ultimately attacked during their student reunion party.


    However, what made her shocked right now was that Maria was leaning on a short and chubby middle-


    aged man, looking so sweet and intimate as if they were lovers.


    Based on Grace’s understanding, Maria only had eyes for handsome-looking men. When they were still


    studying, Maria only dated the school jocks and openly despised fat boys.


    Yet right now, she was...

    As if feeling Grace’s gaze on her, Maria turned to look over. When she saw that it was Grace, her


    expression changed.


    “Grace, why are you here? Is this the kind of ce that you can visit?” Maria chided.


    At that moment, she did not notice Jason who was standing next to Grace. All her attention was


    focused on Grace. She was urgently hoping that someone would chase Grace out!


    After all, Grace was witnessing what a deplorable state Maria was in right now. If Grace let the word out


    about this...


    That thought made Maria loathe Grace further, feeling that Grace was a bad omen for her.


    After bumping into Grace at the mall once, her car had unknowingly gotten smashed. After that, she


    had set Grace up to appear at the reunion party. Then, some things happened to her family. Their loan


    application got rejected by the bank, so their potential business coborators decided to go back on


    their word and refused to work with them. Her family did not know who they had offended.


    Subsequently, to ensure the survival of her family’s business, she now had to lower herself and gain


    favors with an old and loathsome overweight man. If drastic measures were needed, she would need to


    sell herself out!
