His mouth felt bitter. He wanted to say something else but did not know what to say after opening his mouth. Maybe there. was nothing left to say between them.
No matter what he said, it would not be what she wanted to hear.
Martin Weiss just watched Kyla turn around and step farther away from him until her figure disappeared into the store.
Martin Weiss stood alone with endless sorrow on his handsome face.
Grace had been back in Emerald City for some time now. She had worked in a law firm with her mentor back when she was in L City. She was now in Emerald City and had to work as well.
The two kids attended after-school classes during weekends, so Grace and Jason took advantage of their two-hour-long class to shop in the shopping mall nearby. They would see if there was any suitable office space nearby.
âWhatâs the matter? Do you want to start a law firm?â asked Jason.
âYeah, I do have that in mind. I can start one if the rent is alright,â said Grace. She had made some connections during her years in L City.
Although she had to start many things from scratch in Emerald City, it should not be too difficult, âIf you want to start one, Iâll ask Terrence to find some suitable. places for you later,â said Jason.
âYouâll probably find me somewhere big and expensive in a prime location.â
âWouldnât that be nice?â he asked.
âItâs not that itâs bad. Itâs just too much of a waste. I just started in Emerald City, and I used to work with my mentor. Now that Iâm going to go solo, itâs still uncertain whether I can succeed!
Thereâs no need to invest so much so soon,â said Grace.
âBut I only want the best for you.â He did not care if he lost. money from investing in her. He just wanted to give her everything he could!
He was afraid he had not given her enough!
âI know.â Grace smiled. âAlright, letâs shop around first. Lina told me that thereâs a cake shop around here with nice cakes. Letâs go try them. If the cakes taste good, weâll bring home two slices for Mick and Jasper to try.â
âOkay,â replied Jason as he followed Grace to the cake shop.
The cake shop was probably the latest viral cake shop, so it was quite popular. It was almost full of fashionably dressed youngsters.
As soon as she walked into the cake shop, Grace could feel many people looking at her and Jason, especially young women.
Jay was good-looking and only 33 years old, which was the prime age for a man. He had lost some of his naivety and became more mature.
He also had an indifferent aura, but his peach blossom eyes were unusually charming when he looked up.
His indifference and charm formed a unique temperament that many found attractive.
Grace could not help but rejoice that Jason rarely appeared before the media. Even when he did, the occasional photos and videos of him online would always be quickly deleted.
Therefore, the chances of him being recognized when he was outside were rare.
