A Night with Her Cruel Mate

"Yes." Jean nodded. "Julia is my elder sister."

"Oh, so that’s it…" Nelson finally put the pieces together. Now, he understood why Terence was in such a hurry to file a divorce. It was indeed possible that it had something to do with Jean.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt sympathetic toward Julia. He looked at Terence scornfully before leaving.

Jean watched Nelson leaving. Uneasily, she looked at Terence. "Terence, he..."

"Leave him alone." Terence was also wearing a long face. He didn’t know what was wrong with Nelson and why he sided with Julia.

Obliviously, he kept on thinking what was special about that woman. 'Why would Nelson do this for her?'

As she was observing Terence, Jean noticed his tightly-frowned eyebrows. "Do you think Mr. Xu is interested in my sister? Anyway, you and her are already divorced. If they're meeting each other, it's a good thing."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Terence complained.

His annoyance was written all over his face, which Jean quickly noticed. She realized she really was a blabbermouth and was indeed a little impatient. "Nothing, I just said it casually." She tried to brush the uneasiness off.

She checked her wristwatch and looked at him. "Oh, it’s time for lunch. Let me treat you to dinner. Accept it as my kind of apology for bringing you so much trouble."

"No, thanks." His face was still stiff and hardened. For a moment, the room was filled with nothing but uncomfortable silence. Terence went back to his seat and said, "I have a lot of things to deal with. You can go and eat by yourself."
