Chapter 71: I Have No Choice But You? (2)

In that case, how could Christopher say it so easily without Stanhope Brown's advice?

There was a drizzle in the sky, and because of Christopher's words... the surrounding silence was so quiet that you could hear the rain falling on your shoulders.

Grace Gordon was stunned, and so was Lewis Yale.

Under the dim street lamp, Lewis looked at the rain wetting Grace's long hair... wetting her especially pale and haggard face, and her long eyelashes. Her eyes, no longer indifferent, looked at him with such intense, unyielding hatred.

He thought... if a gaze could tear a person apart, perhaps he would have been torn to shreds by now.

Never had Lewis imagined that being looked at by Grace like this... would hurt.

He had envisioned this scene countless times in his mind, and every time... every single time! He felt extremely invigorated.
