My gorgeous wife is an ex-convict (Grace) novel Chapter 826

Chapter 826 

“No thanks. I won’t switch my job for the 

time being. I’ll do it when I’ve made some 

real achievements and have a better 

resume,” she said. 

“Don’t you mind how those people treat 

you?” 

“I do, but… that’s also the frustration 

of being an adult. Even though I don’t 

get along with those people, I still have to stay for the sake of earning a living. As for them… Um, it was the second daughter of the Atkinson family, Lily, who wanted to embarrass me. If they helped me, they would be offending Lily. We’re 

not that close, so they have no reason to 

do that for me, right?” 

Hadwin Stephenson was somewhat surprised. He did not expect her to be so 

understanding. 

However, after saying that, she froze and 

looked at him strangely. 

“What’s the matter? Why are you looking 

at me like that?” he asked with a slight 

frown. 

She pressed her lips together for a long time before she said, “Nothing… I’m hungry and I want something to eat.” 

“Alright.” Hadwin Stephenson smiled. 

Since it was not dinner time, Hadwin Stephenson took Lina to a dessert shop that was pretty popular these days. 

He ordered the dessert he was interested 

in, but Lina was a little absent-minded. 

She kept looking at Hadwin Stephenson. 

He naturally felt that something was 

wrong with her, but… it felt good when she looked at him that way. 

“What’s the matter? Why do you 

keep looking at me today?” Hadwin Stephenson asked with a smile on his 

lips. 

Lina bit her lip. Everyone in this world 

knew how to seek benefits and avoid 

harm. She understood that her 

colleagues and director were afraid 

of offending Lily, so they dared not 

intervene in her affairs with that woman. 

However, when she had a conflict with 

Jason, Hadwin Stephenson did not 

hesitate to intervene and took on all the 

responsibilities for her. Someone like him 

should know that once he intervened, he 

would offend Jason by doing so. 

However, he chose to stand by her side and was willing to be the sword in her 

hand. 

‘Is it really… fake? What if it’s true?’ 

“Hadwin Stephenson, do you really like me?” Lina asked suddenly. 

Hadwin Stephenson suddenly narrowed his eyes. There was a flash of surprise 

in his eyes. He could feel that she was 

being unprecedentedly serious right 

now. 

His thin lips parted as he said gently, 

“Yes.” The simple word had already been 

declared his heart. 

“Are you… still going to get even with me?” Lina took a deep breath before
