“Of course, I’ll stay with you. You’re not well, why would I leave?! I’ll lay right here beside you on the floor. Just say the word and I can get you anything you need.”
“This bed can hold two people. Come and lie beside me.” Even he was unaware of the longing look on his face.
Grace bit her lip and hesitated for a while before nodding. “All right.” She lifted up the quilt on the floor and lay down beside him.
She was astonished that she had agreed to sleep beside a man.

Jason slowly shut his eyes. He felt assured by her voice and the pain gradually lessened.
“Get married…?” he mumbled. Ever since the death of his fiancee, Jason had never thought of getting married. However, Grace was already thinking about that.
