Chapter 26
"What are you…?" Noah watched Grace blank expression as she disappeared into the kitchen and a sudden fear he had never felt before not even when he had about his father s accident came on him, and he rushed toward Grace and grab her "Okay, that s not funny even when it is a joke" he told her with a serious expression
"And who says I was joking." She turned to him, "why are you still here?" she asked
Signing, "okay, maybe I took the joke too far. Nothing actually happened between us, so you can relax," he told her, but she just stared at him
"What?" Grace couldn t process what he was saying.
"Nothing happened, okay." He repeated. "I swear, I mean, you're a virgin, aren't you? So it's easy to tell if we made love last night, right?' he asked.
She didn t know she was holding her breath until it came out of her in relief. "What? Then why did you lie?"
