Rita could actually feel Jake's arrival. However, she did not turn around, nor did she speak. She did not even move. She looked at the flowers in front of her like an old monk in a meditative state and did not say a word.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.
This sea of flowers was specially planted by Jake for Rita, but Rita was not touched at all.
As time went by, neither of them spoke a word, as if they were in a kind of silent competition.
Towards Rita's stubborness, Jake was still a little defeated.
He asked someone to get a coat and gently put it on Rita.
"You've just recovered, so it's not suitable for you to catch the wind here. If you're done, go back. You need to rest."
Jake's movements were gentle and his voice was warm. He was different from the tyrant they were talking about, but it caused Rita to frown slightly.
"Who are you?"
Her sudden words caused Jake to be slightly startled.
"What did you say?"
"Let me ask you, who are you? You're not Jake!"
Rita turned around and looked straight at Jake. The clarity and questioning in her eyes were like searchlights, making it impossible for anyone to hide from the darkness in their hearts.
"Rita, are you stupid? Who am I but Jake? I haven't seen you for a few years, and you don't know me anymore?"
Jake's smile was impeccable, just like what Rita remembered, but she shook her head.
"You are not him! Although you look exactly the same as him and your habits are very similar to him, no matter how much you imitate him, you are not him after all."
When Rita sensed Jake's arrival, she was very nervous. There was even a hint of complicated emotions flashing through her heart. However, the several minutes of stalemate had caused her to sense a flaw.
Perhaps because of her physical condition, she didn't notice it immediately, but at this moment, she still noticed it.
The blood of the Blu family had a lot of effects. Not only could it save lives, but it could also make her five senses clearer.
The person in front of him was not Jake!
The aura and his scent was wrong!
There was no doubt or confusion in Rita's eyes. It was a combination of certainty and doubt.
This was the first time that Jake had been so watched and analyzed like this. It was as if he was completely exposed. However, he truly couldn't imagine how a woman who looked like a goddess could have such a sharp gaze.
"Rita, I haven't seen you for a few years. I've changed a little. You really can't recognize me?"
Jake's mood was a little downcast.
However, Rita shook her head and said, "Even if ten years have passed, I will still remember Jake, who looks gloomy and doesn't want to live. Maybe these years' experience will make him change his temperament, but his aura won't change. Besides, he doesn't get along with me like we do now."
After saying that, Rita no longer looked at Jake, but her heart was filled with waves of shock.
Where did Jake go?
This person was a fake.
This made Rita let out a sigh of relief and then she took a deep breath.
When she knew that the person she was about to get close to was Jake, and when she knew what her mission was, Rita didn't tell him. After all, that gloomy young man had occupied a large part of her youth. If he really became irreplaceable, she didn't know if she could make a move on him.
But at this moment, she inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief, because this person was not him. But if this person was not him, then where was the real Jake?
Was he still alive?
The last question made Rita feel a little bad.
"Are you his twin brother?”
