A Night with Her Cruel Mate

Chapter 10 If Only She Were Half As Sensible As You

"What?" Terence darted a surprised glance in Jean's direction, wondering what she meant.

"She didn't mean anything by saying you are my boyfriend. Don't take it to heart," Jean said and lowered her head shyly.

"It doesn't matter." Terence put the thought out of his mind and started the car. "You said you are going to the supermarket, right?"

"Yes," Jean said nodding her head slightly, but she felt quite unhappy. She had actually wanted to get close to Terence by telling him that people think they were a couple. But it seemed as if he didn't even care about it.

It simply meant that Terence had never thought about being in a relationship with her.

It had only been a few days since Jean had returned, and she could tell that Julia was very uncomfortable. But it would still take her some time to become Terence's legal wife.

"How's your hand?" Terence asked. His mind had been so focused on Julia for the past two days, he had forgotten about Jean.

"It's okay now. I got several stitches. The doctor advised rest. If I do that, I will be perfectly fine soon."

"That's great." Terence managed a weak smile, nodding. "I'm really sorry. I didn't expect that Julia would do such a thing to hurt you," he added, apologetically.

"What are you talking about?" Jean frowned slightly. She did not like the fact that he was feeling guilty for something Julia had done. "It's not your fault. Why are you apologizing?"

Then she sighed. "It's all my fault, I don't blame her.

"If I hadn't shown up out of the blue, Julia wouldn't have been so angry. Or, if I hadn't asked you to pick me up at the airport, things wouldn't have gone haywire. You and Julia have been happy together for the past three years. I hadn't expected things to get messed up the second I stepped back into your life. It's all my fault."
