My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict

Chapter 70

“Do you think she would still be willing to stay by my side?” Jason asked.

Terrence was slightly surprised. “Do you want Miss Cummins to continue to accompany you?”

Since this was only a game, didn’t it mean that the game would come to an end once Mr. Reed told Grace of his true identity?

Or could it be that Mr. Reed’s feelings for her… had grown?

Thinking of this, Terrence clutched the papers he held. “Mr. Reed, you…” He opened his mouth in the middle of the sentence, but his words suddenly stuck at the back of his throat.

“What do you want to say? Speak!” Jason ordered.

Terrence frowned. “Mr. Reed, have you fallen in love with Miss Cummins?” Terrence asked.

So, that was why Mr. Reed had always been keen on this game and had secretly done so many things for this woman. It may have begun as a game, but it had morphed into something more. And if Mr. Reed was worrying about the future and whether or not Grace would be with him in it… then his feelings were

strong.

Jason drew in a deep breath.

He had fallen in love? How could that be possible? No. That was not right. And Terrence was a fool for even suggesting it.

How could he have fallen in love with any woman? Was it not enough to have his father as an example? He would never be so weak or desperate, so pathetic as to be at the mercy of some other person. At most, he liked Grace’s company. She was kind and uncomplicated. She kept her questions to herself and didn’t desire his company for what she could gain. The woman was selfless and patient. Her presence gave him a sense of comfort.
