My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!

Chapter 14

Chapter 14

Maria was angered and humiliated. Her hands fisted at her sides and she shook with the force of her outrage. She immediately turned to leave with Mia following her. That was slapping her in the face.

Grace felt as if she were watching a show. The minute she stepped out of the market, she saw a few people smashing a car that seemed to belong to Maria.

“What happened? Has she offended someone and that person is taking revenge?” Grace asked.

“Who knows?” Jason replied as his eyes glittered.

“Anyway, it’s none of our business.” Grace took Jason’s arm and walked to the bus stop.

Suddenly, Jason stopped walking. Grace turned to look at him and saw that he looked pale.

“What’s wrong?” Grace asked, looking worried. “Jay, are you okay?”

“N-nothing,” Jason stuttered. He shook his head as if to clear it.

“You look like you saw a ghost.”

His gaze cut swiftly to her.

The woman who stepped off the bus and disappeared into the market crowd…she’d looked too much like the woman who’d deserted her husband and son.

Surely, he was mistaken.

Grace frowned at him as they got ready for bed. She didn’t pry and he credited her for holding her tongue.

“Thank you for the phone,” he said and forced a smile for her benefit.

Her smile wobbled a bit, but she nodded. It was obvious she was worried about him.
