My gorgeous wife is an ex-convict (Grace) novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288 

Grace’s face could not help but turn a little red. Subconsciously, 

she wanted to turn away. 

However, his fingers were under her chin the very next moment. “Sis seemed to be watching me intently just now. Why? Do you think I’m good looking?” 

She choked. How was she supposed to answer? Should she say that he was good looking? Or that he was not? 

Either one did not seem like a good answer! Grace felt her face 

burning and tried to avoid his gaze, but she was unable to do so. 

The servant who was on the side tactfully looked down, but the mere sound of their conversation roused a tempest in her heart. 

Young Master Reed treated Miss Cummins differently. Was it true that Miss Cummins would someday be the mistress of the Reed family as some people had said? 

However, did Miss Cummins not work as a sanitation service worker at the Sanitation Service Center? 

Was it possible for… Young Master Reed to marry such a woman? 

At night, Grace laid in bed. She was still awake and looking at her 

fingers wrapped in gauze under the light of the moon through the 

window. Jason had been changing her dressing himself these 

days. 

He was more attentive toward her than Sean Stevens was when 

he was dating her, and sometimes, she could not help but be 

absent-minded for a moment. 

If… If he was not Jason and was someone else, maybe she would 

fall in love with him. 

After all, there were few women who would not be charmed by a man who pampered them and was a feast for the eyes. 

However, because he was Jason and because there was a lingering fear of him in her heart, she would constantly remind herself to wake up when she found herself distracted. 

‘After the wounds on my hands get better, I’ll leave immediately,’ thought Grace. 

The next day, she began using her phone to search the internet. for food delivery rider jobs and created her resume. 

The threshold for food delivery riders was relatively low, but all of them required a health certificate. Grace found herself having to get a health certificate before she could work in the industry. This meant that she needed to make a trip to the hospital. 

Come to think of it, she seemed to end up going to the hospital 

quite frequently these days. 

It would cost her some money to get a health certificate and to do 

basic tests. As her money got lesser and lesser, it became more 

and more precious to her. 

Two days later, Grace’s fingers were no longer wrapped in gauze. 

However, there were faint scars where she had been burned. 

Jason held up her fingers and stared at the scars on her fingertips.
