My gorgeous wife is an ex-convict (Grace) novel Chapter 481

Chapter 481 

He felt relaxed even though she was just sitting next to him. 

It was as if just by looking at her like that, he could be relieved 

from the daily strenuous tension he suffered from this dog eat dog world. 

Others only saw how glorious he was, but he knew that the higher he stood and the more money and power he had, the 

more people around him would try to manipulate him. 

It might seem glorious, but it was in fact dangerous. Any carelessness might take down the Reed family’s vast empire.

she was knocked unconscious. 

How long was she unconscious? A few seconds? Or maybe a 

minute… Two minutes…? 

When she opened her eyes, she found blood on her head. As 

she struggled to get out of the car, all she saw was the car 

that hit her on fire… 

She tried to go over to put out the fire, but it was too late. The fire had engulfed the car almost too quickly…
