Ste Grace couldn’t fall asleep that night.


    The incident from three years ago haunted her.


    When she came out of the room, she was dragged away by a man.


    He was very strong.


    The guy turned her around, covering her mouth, and forced himself on her like a beast.


    Jasper Milton was very gentle to her. He would always prioritize herfort.


    Jasper was a patient man, theplete opposite of her rapist.


    As shey under her attacker, she saw Frederick Addington having sex with that woman in a car parked next to them.


    She passed out from the pain. When she regained consciousness, she realized that she was lying in the wilderness, and the man had gone.


    Jasper was a responsible person.


    She would not believe that Jasper would do something like that.


    Could this be a conspiracy set up by Frederick?


    At 8 a. m., Stey in her bed after having breakfast.


    She texted Jasper, “I’m already in Riverell City. My current location is the Riverell City Hotel which is near the inter-city bus station. Contact me when you’re free.”


    Jasper called her at 11 a. m..


    Ste immediately sat up and answered the phone.


    “I’ll be there in half an hour. What’s the room number?” Jasper’s voice sounded a little tired.


    Ste felt a little sad.


    She really didn’t want to trouble him, but this was important to her.


    She wanted to confront him face-to-face.


    ” 302,” Ste answered.


    “Okay,” Jasper said.


    Half an hourter, a knock came from the door.


    Ste opened the door. Jasper stood there smiling slightly, looking very tired.


    “Are you done with your work?” Ste asked.


    “Yeah, I had to settle some emergency yesterday. It’s fine now. What happened to you? I bet something happened to you since you came herest night.” Jasper worried about Ste.


    “You haven’t been sleeping sincest night?” Ste asked doubtfully.


    “Nah, it doesn’t matter. I used to go without sleeping for half a month when I had the duty. Have you eaten? Why don’t we talk more while we have dinner?” Jasper held her hand.


    “Do you have any n in this afternoon?” Ste asked.


    “I have work at 4 o’clock, so I have five hours to apany you,” Jasper replied patiently.


    “If I don’te over, are you going to drive to my ce and stay for another hour thene back here?” Ste frowned.


    “I’ll ask someone to drive me there. I’ll sleep in the car. How nice it would be if I could be by your side after I sleep, ” Jasper said.


    Ste had mixed feelings.


    She really couldn’t believe that Jasper was the guy who attacked her three years ago.


    “Rest for a while. I’ll order take-out. I will wake you up when the food is here. Rest now, so that you have energy for workter.” She took her phone and made her order.


    Jasper looked down at her with softness in his eyes. “I am very happy that you came here to see me.”


    Ste was a little stunned, then she looked at him.


    “It makes me feel that I’m not the only one who cares about our rtionship,” Jasper smiled.


    Her heart felt heavy, and she hesitated to ask him about the incident.


    She hesitated a lot as he treated her really well.


    “Sleep with me for a while.” Jaspery in bed with Ste and closed his eyes.


    Ste snuggled in his arms and rested her head on his shoulders.


    She could feel his body warmth.


    “Jasper, I will forgive you no matter what you have done to me in the past. Can you promise me that you won’t ever lie to me again, except for your military duty?” Ste said.


    She waited for a while, but Jasper didn’t say anything.


    She turned to look at him. He seemed to be asleep.


    She looked at his face, and she was unable to imagine that he was the one who raped her.


    “Forget it.”


    If he was the guy, she believed that he had his reasons, perhaps it was part of his duty.


    If he was the guy, he should have brought her baby away when his parents were against the idea of them being together.


    He didn’t do so, which meant he was not there.


    His duty was very dangerous, and she really didn’t want to bother him even more.


    Ste put her hand on his waist and fell asleep.


    They slept for some time.


    As Jasper moved, she opened her eyes.


    He looked at his watch, it’s already 4 o’clock. “Ste, I have to go back now. I will ask someone to send you back to Sun City.”


    “Okay, focus on your task, you don’t have to worry about me. I have Mina and the others to protect me, nothing bad will happen,” Ste said reassuringly as she sat up.


    He kissed her on the forehead and said, “I will rest again after I finish my work.”


    “Okay.” She said.


    Ste got in the car. The driver was in police attire. She had never seen him before.


    As the car drove, Ste looked around this unfamiliar city.


    There seemed to be a lot of warmth in the city because of his presence.


    Suddenly, the driver stepped on the brake.


    Ste knocked on the seat in front of her, and she said while looking outside of the car, “What happened?”


    “It seems that we have identally hit someone. I’ll go down and have a look,” the driver said as he got out of the car.


    Suddenly, Ste heard a loud bang. Before she knew what was happening, a few people wearing face mask entered the car with guns.


    “Who are you?” Ste was shocked. The possibilities shed through her mind.


    Did Jasper’s parents know they were together?


    Or could this have been nned by Katty Davis?


    “What do you want to do? I can give you money. Let me get out of the car,” Ste pleaded nervously.


    “Shut up,” said the man wearing a pig mask next to her. He picked up a handkerchief and pressed it against her nose.


    Ste tried to hold her breath but it was toote. She fainted right away.


    When she woke up, she felt overwhelmed by the noise and light.


    She opened her eyes but closed them again as the lights were too bright.


    Her hands and feet were tied to a table.


    “Anyone dare to rape Jasper Milton’s woman?” An obese man shouted.


    He pointed his gun at a man with a beard. “If you do it, you better be the cab minister. Don’t try to fool me.”


    “Jasper Milton’s woman, I must make sure I “taste” her well, put her in the room.” A hoarse voice sounded.


    “Just do it here. You are not on the military’s side, are you?” the bald man roared.Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Ste saw the bearded man walking up to her.


    He wore a pair of thick sses over his tiny eyes and his face was covered with a beard. He picked up the knife.


    Ste’s mind went nk. She could only fathom the de’s terrible sharpness.


    “Don’te closer, don’t touch me,” Ste begged in fear.


    The current situation was so simr to the incident that happened three years ago.


    The bearded man cut off the rope tying Ste’s hands.


    Ste pped the bearded man.


    This enraged him. He dragged her to a room and threw her on a bed.
