Chapter 112
‘Are all men turned from wolves? Alita muttered in her heart and struggled out of Kim’s arms. “I know what I’m doing when I accepted it. Since he came looking for me, I can only face him. Besides, I’m doing business. So, of course, I have to earn money if there’s a chance. Don’t worry. I have my principles and won’t waver easily.”
I’m afraid that he will use work as an excuse to do despicable things to you.” Kim looked at her steadily. There was deep affection in his sparkling eyes and also the loss brought about by her apparent alienation.
“If he wants to do that, what’s the point of me being afraid? I might as well decide on countermeasures based on the circumstance.” It was difficult for Alita to say that Jaydon had already been despicable to her. She planned to erase this page and pretend that it had never happened.
“Alita, I realized your heart is still hard and cold even after you left the Lewis family. This is different from the innocent and lively you when you were young. I had thought it would be different as long as you left the Lewis family.” Kim smiled faintly. He felt disappointed and down because he could no longer connect with her after the gap in time and space.
Alita suddenly laughed. “Kim, what are you thinking? I was only 13 years old at that time. I’m 28 now. On one side is a little girl, and on the other is a mature woman. As a person slowly grows up, his mind will naturally grow slowly. Don’t you think it would be ridiculous for a woman of 28 to be innocent and lively?”
Kim looked at her and could not help but smile. “You’re right. Perhaps I’ve been stuck in my memory for too long.”
Alita’s smile slowly disappeared. She took his hand and said earnestly, “Perhaps you only like the 13–year–old me, Kim. It’s time for you to move on. For us, it is the beauty of a lifetime. However, things that have been broken for too long might not be good if you insist on connecting them. Why don’t you let go and let the memories become memories forever?”
“Have you know.
missed me all these years? Did you miss me when you left back then and in the years that followed? Kim wanted to
After thinking about it carefully. Alita decided to tell the truth. She nodded and said, “Yes! I missed you and felt very sad when I was locked up in that cold and gorgeous palace after I entered the Lewis family. After who knows how many years, your shadow naturally faded. Later on, when I occasionally thought of you, instead of feeling sad, I only felt that it was a beautiful
memory.”
“I see.” Kim smiled sadly.
Seeing that he seemed to be sad, Alita cleverly changed the topic. “It’s past four. Are you hungry? Stay for dinner.”
Kim composed himself and nodded with a faint smile. “Alright!”
“Then you can sit and watch TV. I’ll cook. Take it as repayment for helping me out today, Alita stood up, smiled, and said.
Tve helped you so much. How can a meal be enough? Kim’s gaze was leisurely. Although it was not evil, it was not simple.
“Kim, don’t take advantage of the situation. Alita pretended to be unhappy.
“I haven’t said what it is yet. How do you know that it’s an excessive request! Go and cook first. Do you need any help?” Kim smiled brightly.
“No. Just sit there,” Alita said and walked into the kitchen.
After she left, Kim’s smile gradually faded.
When Jaydon and Samuel drove home respectively, they came to Annabel’s room.
“Why isn’t Dr. Jayvin here yet? Is your stomach hurting badly?” Jaydon rushed to Annabel’s side and asked with a frown.
“Jaydon, I asked Dr. Jayvin not to come because I’m much better now,” said Annabel weakly as she lay on the bed. Kim had taken the initiative to call to ask for her help. To have a chance to start with him, she had no choice but to think of a way to trick them back without asking anything.
Samuel walked over. “Annabel, you’d better get Dr. Jayvin to check for you. Even if you don’t feel pain now, there’s no guarantee that you won’t have a relapse later.”
Chapter 112.
“No need, Samuel. I don’t think it’ll hurt anymore. Maybe my period is coming soon.” Annabel tried her best to find an excuse.
Jaydon and Samuel felt that something was wrong. Annabel was no longer a little girl. How could she not even know that she was having her period? Moreover, she made it sound so severe on the phone just now. It was a completely different reaction from her indifferent attitude now,
They both wondered what was going on.
“Well, since you’re fine now, I’m relieved. Rest well. Samuel smiled gently
“Yeah, thank you, Samuel, Annabel returned a bright and sweet smile.
Jaydon stood up from the bed. His handsome face was slightly serious. “Don’t make such a joke next time, understand?”
“I was not joking, I didn’t feel well just now, Annabel argued. Her eyes moved guiltily.
Jaydon and Samuel came out of the room one after another and pondered silently. They wondered why Annabel deliberately tricked them back.
All of a sudden, they understood what was going on. It was a trick of luring the enemy away…
And there was only one person in the world who could use Annabel. That was Kim!
They went downstairs at the same time. When they almost reached the door, someone walked in from outside and hugged Jaydon.
Jaydon, you’re finally back. I’m bored to death.” Evelyn wrapped her arms around Jaydon’s waist and acted cute.
Samuel smiled meaningfully at Jaydon and left.
Jaydon couldn’t let him beat him to it. He pulled Evelyn’s hand and said, “Samuel and I have something urgent to do. Stay at home obediently, understand?”
After saying that, he quickly rushed out.
Alita brought three dishes and a soup to the dining table. Then, she prepared two plates of pasta,
“Dinner is ready,” she called out to the living room
Kim stood
up and walked over. He looked at the three dishes and soup on the table and praised her, “They look yummy”
“Then help me finish it all, Alita said with a smile. She pulled out a chair and sat down.
Kim also sat down. Then, he said, “Let me try this soup first. He picked up a spoon and put some in his mouth. After taking it, he said surprisingly, “Wow, it tastes good.”
“Then have more. Alita was glad that he liked her cooking.
They were chatting and laughing when they suddenly heard a commotion outside. They turned their heads and saw two figures walking into the dining room.
When Jaydon saw Alita and Kim chatting and laughing as they ate dinner, his anger was enough to swallow mountains and
rivers.
Samuel’s eyes darkened too.
“You… How do you know the password to my house? Alita felt a chill down her spine, and her hair stood on end.
“You told me yourself last night. Did you forget?” Samuel raised his eyebrows and smiled.
“That’s impossible.” Alita didn’t remember telling him.
Jaydon did not care about this. He smiled coldly and walked to the dining table. He looked at the dishes on the table and said, “They look quite special. I’ll try them.”
Chapter 113
He went to take the fork from Alita’s hand. She clenched it tightly and refused to give it to him. But in the end, he still took it away from her.
Jaydon picked up some of each dish and put it in his mouth. He chewed slowly. “Well, it tastes pret He picked up the pasta she had eaten and ate it slowly as if no one was around.
pretty good. I’m hungry now”
“That’s my pasta, reminded Alita, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
“Don’t be so stingy. You made such a table for Mr. Andrews. Can’t I even have some? Jaydon said sarcastically. She had never cooked for him.
When he thought about how Kim had such treatment, he felt envious.
Kim calmly picked up his spoon and continued to have the soup. He even generously said to Samuel, “Mr. Lewis, if you haven’t eaten, sit down and join us. Alita, go get two more pasta
Facing such a situation, Alita felt helpless again. She went to the kitchen to prepare two pasta and elbowed Samuel. “Come and join us!”
“When you’re full, get lost! All of your Alita said in her heart.
The dinner for the two of them became a dinner for the four of them, and the atmosphere was intense.
Kim triet to pick up the meat. Jaydon also used his fork to block it. Whatever Kim tried to pick, he blocked it. In the end, Samuel picked it up without effort. So, their cold lights shot toward the same place, and Samuel only smiled gently.
A silent war could be filled with smoke, and a vocal war was even more intense.
“Mr. Andrews, you like to eat meat, don’t you? Here, meat for you.” Jaydon picked up a meat, took a bite, and threw the rest on Kim’s plate.
“Mr. Lewis, you like soup, don’t you? Here, soup for you” Kim politely poured the soup from his spoon on Jaydon’s plate and even splashed some on Jaydon’s body.
Their gazes clashed fiercely in midair. They were sharpening the knives in their hearts. A world war was about to erupt.
Alita put down her fork forcefully and stood up. She clenched her fists and held her breath. However, she suddenly realized that whatever she said was useless. She slowly exhaled and said with a smile, Take your time. I’m going to the washroom. I’ll be back soon!”
She walked out of the dining room unhurriedly and quickly entered the room. She locked the door and threw herself onto the bed.
She decided to let them fight to the death.
Unknowingly, she fell asleep on the bed.
The next day, Alita stretched and sat up in bed. As usual, she pulled open the curtains and opened the window to get some fresh air.
Her mind was clear now. Yesterday’s events came back to her one by one. She walked away from the door and pressed her ear against it, listening to the commotion outside.
There was no sound at all!
She opened the door carefully as if she was afraid that Jaydon would suddenly appear at the door. Her nerves were tense.
The living room was empty. She walked out and went to the dining room. It was clean, and no one was there. There was no cutlery. When she walked to the kitchen, it was also clean and neat.
She stood there in a daze for a while and secretly laughed. It seemed that those three fellows were still self–restraint.
She went to work in high spirits. As soon as she sat down, her office phone rang.
