Chapter 780: Dodge Her Deliberately
Chapter 780: Dodge Her Deliberately
That night, Ryan doesn't return to the bedroom until midnight. Although he takes a cool shower, he does not have any self-control while facing her. He is afraid that he will be excited again in case.
He pushes open the bedroom door. There is only a wall lamp with a warm yellow dim light. In the middle of the king size bed, Eunice curls up on one side, breathes steadily and has fallen asleep.
He breathes a sigh of relief, gently closes the door and carefully walks to the bed, looks at her pretty little face and feels warm.
Even if he can't do anything, it's enough for him to look at her quietly like this.
Ryan has never believed in love. When he meets Lily, he doesn't have the impulse to settle down. He only would like to be nice to Lily and her daughter.
When Eunice shows up in his life, he starts to have feelings for her gradually. Up to now, he already has the thought to get married and stay with her forever.
He is reluctant to let go of her hands, even if he will exchange for it with the wealth and glory of the past thirty years. He won't regret.
After that kidnapping, her personality has changed a lot. He has consulted a world-class psychiatrist, and the psychiatrist says that it is an emotional reaction.
It means that her inner personality has not changed. The personality that she displays is just to resist the memory that she is unwilling to recall.
Ryan doesn't care if it's temporary or she really has changed. As long as she is willing to try to accept him, he will wait no matter how long it takes and no matter what she turns into.
Life is long. Once he decides to stay with her forever, time becomes the least important thing.
He can wait.
Ryan's gaze becomes gentler. What a pity. Eunice, who is sleeping on the bed, does not know. He bends down and kisses her forehead.
"Good night."
...
Ever since Alfred comes to their home to look for them, Jasmine feels that Pehry is strange.
Pehry liked to stay with her in the past. He has barely showed up in the past week. He is either in a social gathering or in a meeting. They have dated twice in a week. The number of their dates can be said to have reached a new low.
At first, Jasmine is just puzzled. As time goes by, she feels a little uneasy and wronged. In the end, she feels angry and aggrieved.
When the weekend is coming, Jasmine notices that he hasn't contacted her. She finally blows her cool and calls him.
"My class is over. It's Friday and I will rest tomorrow. I don't need to go back to school."
Normally, Pehry will be very excited when he hears this. Of course, men want to spend the night with their girlfriends.
However, he is strange. He pauses and refuses, "I have a meeting tonight. Wait for me at school."
Jasmine has already guessed his answer and asks, "Are you going to work overtime at the company tonight?"
He says coldly, "Yes."
He will work overtime again. He is so busy every day that he doesn't have time to meet her. If the matter about Alfred hadn't happened, she would have been considerate, but she knows well that everything has changed after that matter. It isn't just because he is busy.
Is he dodging her?
With this thought, Jasmine feels that her pent-up anger bursts out. However, she does not show it and answers as if nothing has happened, "OK. I'll wait for you."
She is too obedient. Pehry pauses and says, "Don't run around. I'll pick you up when I have finished work."
"I see."
After hanging up the phone, Jasmine does not wait for him at school as she promises. Instead, she walks to the bus stop outside the school and gets on the bus that will stop near the Red Club.
During the rush hour, she is stuck in a traffic jam. She gets off the bus after an hour. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
She has worked in the Red Club for a period, so she is familiar with everything here and arrives at the entrance of the club smoothly.
At 6:30 p.m., there are only the staff's cars at the entrance of the Red Club. Jasmine carefully observes the cars and does not find the Maybach that Pehry always drives.
She feels suspicious and frowns slightly. When she walks to the front door, the manager is surprised to see her. "Miss Jasmine, why are you here?"
Ever since she dates Pehry, the employees of the Red Club make a fuss when they see her as if a mouse has seen a cat.
Jasmine doesn't tell him the truth. "I have an appointment with Pehry here."
'Mr. Pehry?'
The manager's expression is a little strange as if he is considering something. When the manager is absent-minded, she walks inside.
"Miss Jasmine, Miss Jasmine, please call Mr. Pehry first."
Jasmine ignores the manager behind her and walks to Pehry's office. She reaches out to turn the doorknob.
She tries to push open the door.
A loud voice rings out in the air, but the door is tightly closed.
'The door is locked.'
'Is he not here?'
Jasmine sneers and turns to look at the manager behind her, "He's not in the company."
The manager sees the suspicions in her eyes and doesn't know what to say. He prevaricates, "Mr. Pehry has been busy with his business recently, so it's not sure when he is in the company."
Jasmine doesn't mean to make things difficult for the manager. She doesn't come here to listen to an explanation. She just wants to confirm if he is here.
When she doesn't see his car at the entrance, she roughly guesses that he does not work overtime at the company and has lied to her. He is not at the company.
Jasmine wants to call him and sternly question him about where he is and why he has lied.
But she doesn't.
Once she asks him, they will break up. Even if she knows that she has been tricked, she still wants to give him a chance.
Perhaps he is really busy with something, or perhaps he has his own secrets.
No matter what it is, she doesn't want to argue with him when she is so irrational.
She turns around and tells the manager, "Don't tell Pehry that I've been here."
The manager forces a smile, "Miss Jasmine, I'm an employee of the Red Club. Logically speaking, no matter who comes, I should inform Mr. Pehry."
Jasmine purses her lips and is about to say something, but she doesn't say anything. 'He is just an employee and I have made such a big fuss. He will definitely report that.'
Without saying anything else, she turns around and leaves the Red Club.
Almost as soon as she leaves, the manager picks up the phone and calls Pehry's assistant. "Where's Mr. Pehry? Hurry up and tell him that Jasmine has just come here and gone to his office. She looks sad and lets me not tell anyone else."
