Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2098

At dinner time, Sophia bounded down the stairs, full of energy. Catching sight of Jason, her face lit up with a surprised greeting, "Jason, when did you get back?"

Jason didn't feel like engaging with her and gave her a brief glance before heading toward the dining room.

"Why are you ignoring me?" Sophia chased after him. "I just couldn't wait and came back from B City early, that's all. I missed Estelle!"

Jason walked briskly, still without uttering a word.

"What's the matter with you?" she persisted, blocking his path and cocking her head to the side. "You're not still mad because I crashed in your bed for a bit, are you?"

His eyes, hidden behind glasses, seemed cool and indifferent. "I'm just trying to avoid catching your cold, okay?"

"I'll give it to you on purpose!" Sophia glared at him. "So you can be sick with me. We'll share our ups and downs together!"

Jason stared at her for a moment then reached out to touch her forehead. "You still have a fever?"

She dodged slightly, "My fever broke ages ago!"

When Jason noticed her evasion, as if she didn't want his touch, a shadow fell over his heart and a nameless anger surged within him. He left with a stern face and quick strides.

"Is he seriously upset?" Sophia muttered under her breath. "He must be cranky from a bad sleep or something. That's the only reason he'd be so irritable!"

After dinner, Jason and Gabriel were chatting outside when Sophia came out with a tray of warm soup. "The kitchen whipped this up. Here, have some to ward off colds!"

Jason let out a scoff. "The sick person offering cold prevention advice—that's pretty ironic, isn't it?"

Sophia glared back at him. "Jason, what did I do to you, really? If you've got something to say, just say it!"

He took a cup of the warm soup, sipped it, and turned his gaze to the snowy view outside, not in the mood to explain.

Gabriel stood up, "I'll leave you two to chat. I'm going back to watch the old folks play chess."

"No need!"
