A Night with Her Cruel Mate

Jean got up early the next morning to prepare breakfast. When Terence went downstairs, he was greeted with a table of freshly cooked food.

"Good morning." Jean's cheerful voice chirped as she put milk on the table. She beamed at Terence and said, "Come have breakfast.

I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I prepared a lot."

"Did you cook all of this?" he asked in surprise. Since he and Julia got married, he had seldom stayed over in the villa. Last night, he stayed over because of Jean's situation. However, he wasn't able to sleep very well. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw Julia's face.

"Yes," she replied, grinning from ear to ear.

"You don't have to do this." He frowned at her. "You are still injured. You should be resting in your room."

"I'm used to being busy." Jean shook her head and gave him a pointed look. "How can I rest at home? I have to go to the set later."

"To the filming site?" Terence asked in surprise.

"Yes." Jean chuckled. "Did you forget? I told you yesterday that I'm a scriptwriter. I have to go there because we're changing some scenes."

"But will you be able to work with your injury?" His voice was filled with concern and worry.

"Don't worry. I'm fine." Jean smiled. "I was alone abroad, so I'm used to taking care of myself."

Terence arched his eyebrows and was impressed. Although she looked so weak and fragile, he was surprised that she was incredibly independent and strong.
