Chapter 433 Am I Easy to Fool?
When they arrived at the company building, Jaylon hesitantly said, "I didn't do it on purpose last night."
He knew how much Reina hated him.
What happened last night might have been a nightmare for Reina. Although
she did not mention it, Jaylon felt that it was necessary to tell her about it and check her real reaction.
Jaylon looked at Reina seriously with his dark eyes, not wanting to miss any subtle expression on her face. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Reina lowered her eyelids, restrained the emotions in her eyes, unfastened her seat belt, and said lightly, "You just sleep with me for free. It doesn't matter.
"Mr. Malpas used to be generous. You can just treat what happened last night as my gift return for an old customer."
It was clearly he who first treated the relationship between them as a transaction. At that moment, when he heard Reina say such words to belittle herself, he felt extremely frustrated.
He hated her for comparing herself to prostitutes.
Even though the relationship between them seemed to be similar to that of people in the red-light district.
After Reina finished speaking, she did not look at Jaylon's expression. She directly pushed the car door open and left without looking back.
"I'll pick you up after work in the afternoon," Jaylon called out to her.
Her feet hadn't recovered, and it would take ten minutes to get to the bus stop.
Jaylon was familiar with Reina's personality, and Reina would definitely be reluctant to take a taxi. If she walked over like this, her feet would probably hurt badly, not to mention that she would have to stand for more than half an hour before she could get home.
Reina wanted to refuse, but her rejection was absolutely ineffective to him.
Most of the time, Jaylon was not discussing with her. Instead, he was informing her.
She nodded and left.
When Reina returned to the office, her colleague told her that someone was looking for her and was waiting for her at the rest area.
The colleague spoke and winked at Reina. "He's a handsome guy."
The working atmosphere in this company was very good. Although Reina had only been here for half a month, she had a good relationship with her colleagues.
She thanked the colleague and went to the rest area to find the visitor.
A person was sitting on the sofa in the rest area. She walked in and saw that it was indeed Vincent.
When Vincent saw her, he immediately smiled. "Reina."
Vincent looked gentle, and when he smiled, he also had a sense of innocence.
He had never changed since he was in university. However, after Reina came back from abroad, she felt a lot more depressed.
Reina sat down opposite him. "Why did you suddenly come over?"
Reina was worried that Jaylon would target Vincent, so she avoided
meeting him during this period of time.
However, Vincent came over without a word today.
From the moment Reina appeared, the smile on Vincent's face had not disappeared. "I have found some clues about what you asked me to
investigate. You can get a new ID card in two days."
"Thank you. I will give you the commission as scheduled."
Vincent smiled and waved his hand. "No need. It is not much money."
Reina did not argue with him. She decided to transfer it directly to him after
the matter was done.
"Did you come here to talk about this?"
This matter could be said on social media. She did not understand the
reason why Vincent had specially made this trip.
Vincent stared at her for a few seconds before he let out a "yes".
Reina noticed his pause and also understood what he meant.
However, the relationship between them had already ended, and she had no
intention of continuing their relationship.
The most important thing was that the two years of living abroad had
ruined Reina.
Reina didn't want to hurt Vincent any longer.
"It seems to be a little hot today." Reina looked away and casually took off
the scarf around her neck, which hid her marks. "Mr. Webb, be careful when you go back. Don't get a heat stroke."
When the scarf was untied, Vincent naturally saw the ambiguous kiss marks
on her neck, and his pupils slightly shrank.
It was still spring. Although the weather was hot, it was not likely for
someone to have a heatstroke.
Reina said it so that he could notice the marks on her neck.
Vincent was speechless for a moment and asked, "Are you dating the man who blocked our way last time?"
The last time they stopped in the middle of the road, he was fined and was
almost detained. He asked the traffic police whether the other person who stopped in the middle of the road that day had received punishment, but those people turned a deaf ear to it.
From their attitude, it could be guessed that they only punished Vincent, and ignored the other person who had a more serious illegal act.
Reina hesitated for a few seconds and nodded. "Yes."
She had no choice but to say this to cut off all of Vincent's hopes.
Vincent said, "Reina, that person doesn't look like a good person at first glance. He seems to be a gangster. You won't have a good ending if you
stay with him.
"You have never interacted with this kind of person before. Did he threaten you? Last time, he even drove to block you. If you are wronged, you can tell me about it. I won't let him hurt you..."
"I really love him. He didn't force me to do anything." Reina stated calmly, "Don't interfere in the matters between him and me."
Vincent opened his mouth, then closed it again.
In the end, he only said, "Be careful." Then he left.
After work in the afternoon, Jaylon drove to pick her up as promised.
Reina went downstairs and saw Jaylon on the side of the road. Jaylon leaned on the side of the car and smoked. Both Jaylon and his car exuded an air of nobility and attracted the attention of many passers-by.
The indifferent and alienated aura around Jaylon was too obvious. Although many single women were eager to know him, no one dared to go
over or chat with him.
This type of man was obviously not easy to get along with.
In order to avoid Jaylon, Reina deliberately went downstairs ten minutes earlier. She didn't expect Jaylon to come so early.
She hesitated for a moment and still walked to the side of Jaylon's car.
He quietly watched her approach, and the cigarette burned out bit by bit at his well-defined fingertips.
The smoke lingered and dissipated, making Jaylon's handsome features
inexplicably sexy.
His extremely aggressive gaze was especially attractive. It was as if he
could swallow her up in the next second.
Reina walked to the side of the car. Jaylon casually extinguished the
cigarette and threw it into the trash can not far away.
Jaylon opened the door for Reina and let her get into the car.
After Reina sat down, Jaylon got into the driver's seat.
Jaylon fastened his seat belt, started the engine, looked at the road ahead,
and asked her, "Who came to find you this morning?"
Jaylon mentioned "this morning", so it was obvious who he was referring to.
Reina turned to look at him. "Did you find someone to monitor me?"
"I just have an acquaintance in your company," Jaylon said in a deep voice. "Didn't you tell me before that you had no contact with him?
"Do you think I've been too easy-going recently? Do you think I'm easy to
fool? Hmm?"
Reina glanced at the window. "Since you have someone monitoring me, you should know that I showed him the marks on my neck this morning.
"I've already made it clear to him today. He won't come looking for me
again."
Jaylon's subordinate was worried that he would be discovered, so he didn't get too close.
Although he couldn't hear what Reina and that visitor were talking about, he could roughly tell that Reina was rejecting the visitor's approach.
Because of this, Jaylon didn't come over early in the morning to question
Reina. Instead, he waited until now to mention this matter.
"I hope so."
