My gorgeous wife is an ex-convict (Grace) novel Chapter 1496

Chapter 1496 

However, Old Master Reed was wrong. Master Reed was willing to risk his life for Grace! 

Jason could see the countdown timer when he reached the 

device. There were only eight minutes left. 

Grace said, “Jay, no! Let’s think of another way. Old Master Reed wouldn’t have bet on something this simple! Didn’t Old Master Reed care about the Reed family the most? If you’re gone, the Reed family will be destroyed too! Old Master Reed wouldn’t allow that to happen!” 

“Grace, don’t be afraid. I said I would save you!” Jason said and pressed the green button. 

Instantly, Old Master Reed’s voice rang out. 

“Jason, my… Ahem, Ahem… My grandson. It seems that you’re going to save Grace with your life. But you’ll realize that this woman isn’t worth saving at all! To deactivate the bombs, you need to use your thumbprint to do it and once you have your thumbprint on it, you have to hold it down until it’s time for the 

bombs to go off. But at the same time, the device will explode and 

you’ll be killed.” 

Old Master Reed’s voice drifted into the air and made everyone 

who heard it feel a chill rising in their hearts. 

2/4 

The man who was once the most powerful figure in Emerald City was being cold-blooded to his grandson after his death. 

“However, you can walk away at any time between pressing the disarm button with your thumb. But if the disarm fails, the bombs on the other side will go off. Why don’t we see how much… Ahem, ahem… See how much you love this woman and… whether this woman is worth your life…” 

Old Master’s recording ended here, and there was only silence left. 

Grace could only feel her body trembling. How could Old Master… be so cruel to his grandson?! 

Why… Why? 

‘Does Jason have to die to save me?’ 

“Jay, don’t press it. Let’s think of something else!” shouted Grace. 

Terrence had also rushed to Jason’s side. “Master Reed, don’t be 

impulsive.” 

“I’m calm!” said Jason, looking at Grace in the car about 20 meters away. “Grace, put your foot on the gas pedal. Just press on the gas pedal and rush forward once the place explodes, okay?” 

Grace sobbed. “Jay, listen to me. I don’t want you to save me this 

way. There must be another way!” 

“There may be other ways, but it’s too late now,” said Jason. The 

clock was ticking. 

There were only three minutes left. They could not do a lot in three 

minutes!
