Chapter 497
As for her, she had no way of refuting it,
Finally, Lina Sweeney brought Hadwin Stephenson to her
house.
At the Sweeney household. Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney welcomed Hadwin Stephenson warmly and asked him to join
them for
dinner.
Hadwin Stephenson agreed readily, Lina Sweeney, on the other hand, was secretly fearful upon hearing that. She
worried that the longer Hadwin Stephenson stayed, the higher the chance for him to have a slip of the tongue when
he chatted with her parents.
After dinner, Lina Sweeney quickly pulled Hadwin Stephenson into her room and asked, “When are you going
back?”
“You’re hoping that I leave as soon as possible?” he asked with his brows raised.

boyfriend, so
they’ll catch all opportunities to dig more information about
you.”
“It’s not annoying at all. Sometimes, I find it interesting to have a chat with them,” Hadwin Stephenson said. When
he
conversed with her parents, he could find out many things.
about Lina Sweeney as well.
He had found out about her childhood and other memorable
experiences. He could hear more about her through the
conversations with her parents.
“One more thing… Regardless of what happens in the future, you must always remember to give me a call. You’re
not allowed to look for Grace anymore,” Hadwin Stephenson said.
“Grace is my friend. It’s normal for me to find her when I get into trouble.” She argued.
He chuckled, but it was more like a mocking tone. If you look
for Grace again, believe me when I say that Jason will get
someone to get rid of you.”
Lina Sweeney shuddered. “Aren’t you exaggerating it?”
Hadwin Stephenson raised his brows. “Exaggerating? Jason is not a generous man. The last time we went to S City
together, I could tell how important Grace is to him. The closer you are to Grace, I’m guessing that his jealousy will
rise exponentially
as well.”
Lina Sweeney thought about the feelings she felt inside the car earlier. At that time, she did feel that Jason seemed
jealous of her. Could it be real… “But I’m a girl!” She complained.
“Does it matter if you’re a girl? Those adult comics that you used to read were about two men. So tell me why
women can’t do the same thing?”
“…” Lina Sweeney felt that his statement was like a slap to her face. However, she understood that her relationship
with Grace was pure friendship. “Why don’t… I can swear in front of Jason that my feelings for Grace are platonic.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLina Sweeney sheepishly suggested.
Her words made Hadwin Stephenson react with a huge eye roll.
“As long as the first person you think of is me and not Grace. when you’re in trouble, then Jason won’t have any
other ideas.”
Come to think of it, was he not jealous of her relationship with Grace as well? Although he knew they were just
friends, he
still felt uncomfortable about it.
Just like years ago when she immediately returned because of Grace’s case, leaving him only a short farewell note.
Lina Sweeney could only nod her head obediently. In this
generation, even women found it difficult to maintain a friendship.
Hadwin Stephenson then said, “I’ll get the lawyers to meet with you later to follow up with your case.”
“Thanks a lot!” She immediately thanked him. After all, with
the aid of a lawyer, she did not have to go through much
trouble.
“Also… Don’t your colleagues know that you have a
boyfriend?”
