Filthy rich werewolves by Taylor Caine novel Chapter 294

"No one can fire you," Jason said with great certainty. "Just take care of your fingers first. Do you think you can lift things and sweep the floor with the state your hands are in right now?”

Grace kept her head down and was silent. She really could not do anything with her hands.

"Take good care of your hands first. You can do anything you want once your hands have healed," Jason said. Then, as if thinking of something, he said, "Are you going to meet Lina Sweeney tonight? Why don't you take a rain check until the injuries on your hands get better."

A person familiar with Jason would probably be surprised to hear that.

When had the most elusive man in Emerald City ever worry so much about a woman's injuries?

If it was someone else covered in blood standing in front of him with only one last breath left, they would not cause him the slightest concern.

"I must go," Grace answered with great certainty. "It seems that Lina has news of the witness in my case. I'm going to meet her and find out what happened."

She did not notice the slight change in his face as she said this nor how his hands had slightly tightened.

"She has news of the witness?"

"Yes." She nodded. "However, I'll have to ask Lina for more details," Grace said.

"Are you going to find clues by yourself?" He asked, raising his hand to brush a strand of hair from her cheek. "As I said, I'll reverse the case for you. You needn't go through so much trouble. It may not even come to an end."

"You can't help me find the culprit of this car accident by reversing the case, can you? You can't help me figure out who did this to me. You're just trying to get me out of this by saying I'm innocent until proven guilty. However, even if I'm no longer charged with a criminal offense, people will still think I'm a murderer."
