Chapter 270
Grace remained silent and was extremely quiet as if she was lost in a world of her own. It was only when the doctor was about to pull the photo album out of her hands that she seemed to suddenly come to her senses. She clutched it tightly. with both hands while screaming, “No!”
“He’s not taking it. He just wants to see the injuries on your hands,” Jason said softly. “Sis, give it to me so that the doctor can take a good look at the injuries on your hands, okay?”
Hearing the word ‘sis’, she finally turned her eyes to him. “Jay…”
she murmured.
“It’s me,” he replied. “Tell me, what the hell happened?”
Her lips trembled, and the tears in her eyes gushed out once again. “Burned… The photo album with all of Mom’s photos…
All burned.”
She choked on her words. Each fluttering of her curled

“There won’t be any effects after this?” Jason asked.
“They’re only superficial wounds. There is no nerve or muscle damage, but I’m afraid there will be some scarring,” the doctor said.
Jason’s brows could not help but furrow.
After her hands were bandaged, Grace insisted on holding the half-burnt photo album in her arms again. It was as if she was holding her treasure.
Jason tightened his thin lips and picked up Grace once again. Then, he strode out of the emergency room and headed back
to his car.
