My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 887

"I know! I've misunderstood you." Jackie Leves stretched out his hand, in an attempt to grab Serene Silas, but she stepped back again to prevent him from touching her.

Serene's face was pale. She tried to extend her hand to Jackie, but she could not bring herself to take the first step.

Indeed, it wasn't that she did not want to get close to Jackie. But the trauma that Jackie had caused her was so severe that it was impossible for her to face him again in such a short time like how she had used to.

She opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to. So she lowered her head and bit her lip tightly.

"Serene..." Jackie called her.

"Hmm?" She still didn't want to raise her head and look at him. She was trying to avoid him.

"Let's go. Let's go and eat." Jackie gave up the idea of wanting to hold her hand, put down his hand and walked ahead of Serene towards the dining room. However, he would pay close attention to Serene, who was two steps behind him, to see if she was following him or not.

Although he did not have eyes at the back of his head and he could not see her, but he could feel that when he wasn't looking at her, her eyes were on him.

These days, she would always look at him like this. Only when he didn't look at her, she would look at him boldly, as if she was assessing a stranger whom she had never met before.

Perhaps, she was still not very sure whether he was her Jackie or not.

Perhaps it was because he had hurt her so greatly in the past that she would no longer be able to love him like how she used to.

Thinking that she might not accept him anymore, Jackie's heart sank and his steps became heavier. At this moment, he wanted to turn around and pull her into his arms.

But he couldn't do it because he would scare her.

In this life, he mustn't hurt her anymore, and he couldn't let her be afraid anymore.

He was the one who told her that he would protect her and would never let anyone hurt her. However, he was also the person who had really hurt her.

The two of them were eating sullenly at the dining table. No one opened their mouths to break the silence until the both of them simultaneously picked up the same piece of meat.

Serene quickly retracted her fork and said, "Um, I'm full... You can continue eating."

She only ate two mouthfuls of pasta, and left the food on the plate mostly untouched. She also didn't eat much of the meat. How could she be full?

Jackie put some meat onto her plate and said, "Eat some more with me."

"Oh, okay." Serene nodded and picked up the fork and took another two mouthfuls of pasta, but she didn't eat the meat that he gave her.

"Have some vegetables." Jackie put some vegetables onto her plate.

"Oh, okay." Serene nodded obediently again, and then picked up the vegetables that he gave her and put it into her mouth. She was so obedient that she looked like a puppet at the mercy of others.

Seeing her like this, Jackie was both angry and annoyed. He put down his cutlery and said, "Is it really so hard to eat with me?"

Serene shook her head.

Jackie sighed and said, "Then eat properly, have a proper meal with me."

"Okay." Serene nodded her head, straightened her body, picked up some vegetables and put them into her mouth. Then she ate another two mouthfuls of pasta.

After ensuring that she was eating properly, Jackie then picked up the cutlery again.

He took a piece of the meat that she cooked and put it in his mouth.

Serene knew that Jackie liked to eat meat, especially steak. In the past, the cook in the Leves family was particularly good at making this dish.
