"Have you had dinner?" he asked lightly.
Rose shook her head. In fact, she was so hungry that her chest was stuck to her back. She had deliberately come back early so that she could have dinner with him tonight.
She did not expect to witness a heartbreaking scene instead.
"I'm going to make dinner." Rose jumped off the bed and ran away.
Staying with him for even an extra second hurt her heart so much that she could not breathe.
One corner of the quilt had carelessly fallen to the ground. Jay leaned over and pulled it up. He laid out the quilt for her and when he was arranging the pillows, he inadvertently touched the part of the pillow that was wet with tears.
Jay froze for a long time.
Had this silly girl cried?
The ice in his cold heart suddenly broke and was instead filled with a deep sense of self-blame.
His method of testing her was a bit too cruel.
Jay hurriedly went downstairs and stood outside the kitchen. His eyes were locked on Rose's beautiful face,
which was bleakly illuminated by the milky white light.
It also reflected the redness of her crying eyes.
Jay felt a pang of pain in his heart.
After walking over to her, he hugged her from behind and placed his chin on her forehead while rubbing gently.
"Did you cry?"
Rose trembled slightly, feeling very embarrassed.
"This won’t happen again in the future," Jay said.
Rose said angrily, "If Sir Ares likes other women, just g o on a date with them but don't bring them home."
Jay smiled. "Are you jealous?"
"I’m only responsible for my own health. Don't you know that multi-player sports are bad for the body and mind?"
