“Hm?” The man’s eyes were glinting with astonishment. His eyes were glued on the woman on the side of the road.The lights were dim. When the woman stood under the streetlights, her shadows looked desolate. She was standing there all by herself, and he almost thought that the person standing there was an old person who had experienced all kinds of hardship in her life. Every inch of her body, including her hair, gave out the feeling of someone who had been through the mill.His curiosity towar
The man ate everything in the bowl and put down his chopsticks. “It’s delicious,” He lifted his head and said after looking at her. “You poured your heart into making me this.”“A long time ago, someone I know used to love eating scallion noodles. It got me thinking, if I learned how to make it, I’d make it for him.”“What happened then?”“Then… You’re the first person who tasted my scallion noodles, Sir.”“What about you? Shouldn’t I be the second person?”“Me? I get itchy when I eat scall
“You said that you’ll plea for leniency for me, but did you do it? Do you want to show that you’re kind? Jane Dunn, the most unkind person here is you!”When Susie barged in through the door, she started venting the anger in her heart.“You’re having an affair with the boss, right? You’re already having an affair with him, so why are you still seducing men left and right? You’re seducing Hadyn and that foreign man too. “Listen to my voice. Listen. If you had really pleaded leniency for me, I
If normal people only knew the textbook definition of the word ‘suspicion’, then they would not know about the hidden meanings behind that word. However, Jane was terrified and disgusted with the word ‘suspicion’.Her face turned white. She took in deep breaths and looked at Susie. Even her cackling voice became sharper. However, it merely sounded weird and disharmonious.“Suspicion? Susie...” Jane walked toward Susie in anger. “Do you know the meaning of ‘suspicion’?‘Suspicion?‘What suspi
Susie was speechless. She felt awkward, but she could not fight back against Jane.Jane said, “I’ve never owed you anything from the very beginning. Do you really think that I wanted to plead leniency on your behalf so badly?”In Susie’s eyes, the previous Jane was a coward and an addlepate. However, an addlepate would not always be addlepated, and a coward would not always be weak.Susie was biased against Jane. Then, she became jealous of her because of Haydn. If Jane was Alora or any other outstanding woman, Susie’s jealousy would have turned into envy.There was only a thin line between jealousy and envy.She was better than Jane in every way, so why did Haydn only see Jane and not her?Jane was only a skillless b*tch who would do anything for money. On the other hand, Susie remained chaste the entire time. Why did Haydn only have Jane in his heart?If this person was not Jane but another dazzling woman… Then, things would be different.Jane’s mediocrity was the main culpri
“Alora, here.”Alora was shocked for a moment. When she looked at the wad of cash on the table, her head was blank for a long while. “Where did you get this?”The first question that popped into her mind was, ‘Who arranged work for Jane?’Jane did not think much. She told Alora what had happened last night. After she heard that, Alora’s eyebrows were furrowed together tightly.“It’s him?” She looked at Jane. “Jane, didn’t I tell you not to get too close to that man?”“He gave me money.”‘He gave me money.’ If people did not know her or the situation that was going on now, they would think that Jane was a gold digger. For a brief moment, Alora was speechless.Jane was simply standing at the corner as if she did not exist. However, Alora knew that invisible girls were extremely stubborn.“Jane, come here.” Alora looked at Jane. She felt that she should give her some advice. She placed her hand on Jane’s shoulder and pulled her over.“Listen to me, don’t keep in contact with th
Jane was pulled out forcefully by Haydn.The sound of the busy night market rang through her ears. There was also the sound of various hawkers noisily trying to attract customers’ attention. Haydn was holding her hand. She was not used to her hand being held while walking. However, it was as if this person had a toughness inside of him. She had purposely tried to hide from him a few times, but he still smiled and grabbed her hand.At that moment, the different smells from the stalls invaded th
“Damn you, you little rascal,” Mr. Harper smiled and said.Jane looked at Haydn. “Why are you lying to Mr. Harper? I’m not your girlfriend.”Haydn took the chopsticks and handed them to Jane. He said, “Who said I’m lying to him?” He lifted his head and said, “Jane, why don’t you consider me?”How shocking!That was too sudden!Jane’s ears were ringing. She looked at Haydn for a very long time. “Mr. Soros, what did you say?”The back of her hand started to heat up. She heard Haydn say, “I s
