There was no need for her to point out the obvious.
Gary's handsome face was cold and sullen. His expression was gloomy and dense, like a rainy day covered with dark clouds. It looked like there would be a storm approaching at any moment.
Despite that expression on his face, he still looked very handsome. Maybe because of his habit of working out all year round, his body and the aura he radiated were both superior. The perfect combination of his facial features and body shape formed a unique temperament.
It was completely different from the Gary Janice had seen back in Boston. When he was in Boston, he gave off calm, reserved, and intelligent vibes. At that point in time, he looked like a composed person, and he rarely showed any emotions on his face.
However, right now, all of his emotions were plastered on his face. It seemed like someone here was really affecting his mood.
Janice smiled, and the expression on her face also became more serious.
"You don't feel like talking about what has happened to you. Is it because it has something to do with me?" Janice raised her eyebrows at him, "Did your girlfriend misunderstand something? If I'm not wrong, was it because of me?"
Gary did not mention anything and retorted, "What does it have to do with you? Don't be so full of yourself."
"That must be it," Janice walked in, grabbed a stool and sat down beside his bed, "Did your girlfriend misunderstand something because I came to London? Is she angry at you?"
"It's none of your business," Gary insisted, "Even if it wasn't about you, it would have been about someone else,"
In his opinion, when a person felt insecure, anyone could become an obstacle to their relationship.
He really didn't consider Janice as an obstacle. He felt from the bottom of his heart that Celeste was being too sensitive.
There was nothing happening, but she made it sound like something was really going on between them.
He did not like it when women were being petty, and he disliked it even more whenever women tried to make irrational guesses.
Janice did not speak. She just looked at Gary quietly and started to observe him. She could sense that he was angry, but it was not a normal type of angry. Instead, he was furious.
He looked as if he refused to back down.
In other words, he probably refused to admit his wrongdoings unless he was absolutely convinced.
However, Janice could see that his thin lips were pursed together tightly. The lines on his face were very tense, and a sharp chill was emanating from beneath his eyes. At the same time, he did not want to show too many emotions because he was sitting face-to-face with her.
"It's none of your business," Gary growled. After looking up at her, he pushed the blanket out of his way and got out of bed.
Janice scrunched her eyebrows when she realized that he was only wearing a pair of underpants. His strong physique and his abs were perfect and toned, making him look muscular and sexy. Everything about him was perfect.
Janice laughed and blew a flirtatious whistle at him.
She had been in the United States for many years, and her behavior was no different from that of foreigners. She was very lively, cheeky, and always liked to joke around. She looked like she would never get angry.
At the sight of a perfect figure, she just blew a whistle as a sign of pure appreciation.
Gary turned his head and glared at her. Despite her admiring gaze, he put on his shirt and snapped, "What are you doing? Are you acting like a gangster?"
Janice was in a really good mood and snickered, "I'm just appreciating the view. Your figure is A-tier and I'm just admiring it, okay? Don't make me sound like a dirty-minded person."
Gary stared at her for a moment before returning to the window sill. He leaned on it and took out his phone.
Not even a single phone call.
Celeste didn't call him at all. It looked like she was reluctant to contact him first.
In the end, he was expecting too much from her. He always thought that Celeste would take the initiative to give him a call first. Whenever he thought about it, he realized that it was just wishful thinking.
Celeste would never do that.
"Are you waiting for a call?" Janice asked with a smile.
Gary felt like Janice had just read his mind. He tilted his head and looked at her, demanding, "Can you go back to your room?"
"I'm so bored," Janice complained, "I want to go out and have some fun."
"It's up to you," Gary's attitude was completely casual, "Nobody is stopping you here."
"But it's boring for me to go alone."
"Ask the butler to go with you," Gary suggested.
Janice was stunned for a moment. She quickly broke into a smile, "That's right! I've never thought about it."
She stood up and chuckled, "I'm going to go and have fun with the butler then. Good luck."
After saying that, she left, looking really happy.
Gary turned around and saw her hopping and bouncing away happily. He was really puzzled. How could she feel happy all the time?
Furthermore, she never got angry.
He turned around and looked at the door, creasing his forehead.
Suddenly, Janice came back again. She looked at him and sneered, "I forgot to close the door for you just now. I'll close it for you now."
After that, she closed the door for real.
Gary took a deep breath and laid on the bed again.
He didn't sleep well the night before, so he went back to bed to get some rest.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, he woke up. The first thing he did was check his phone for any messages.
