However, when he walked out of the bathroom, he saw Katherine Jackson sitting on the couch with a meaningful
smile on her lips. “It seems you still can’t get over your sweetheart. You saved her today, but it’s a pity you can’t be
with her no
matter how reluctant you are.”
“I just happened to be passing by and helped her out. Now that I’ve decided to marry you, don’t worry about it,”
Hadwin Stephenson said lightly.
“That would be best.” Katherine Jackson got up and walked over to Hadwin Stephenson. “You should know how

Hadwin Stephenson’s body stiffened slightly, and his eyes. glimmered a little. However, he did not push her away
this

Satisfaction flashed through Katherine Jackson’s eyes. ‘I’ll eventually conquer him…’

Grace paused. She knew she would not stand by and not do anything. She would protect him with her life.
“What’s with that man today? Does he have a legal dispute with you?” Jason asked, digressing.
“He was the defendant in one of the lawsuits I handled. He was charged for assault, and his lawyer was my
