A Night with Her Cruel Mate

"Why are you here?" Terence grunted at Jean. His meeting with Samuel earlier had placed him in a foul mood.

"I'm here for this." Jean got up from her seat and handed him an invitation. "I'm sorry that I've been bothering you since I got back. I didn't think a gift was enough to repay you. So I'd like to invite you to a dinner, where I'll be cooking for you. Although it's nothing compared with what you've done for me, I still hope you can appreciate it."

Terence gently took the invitation from her hand and looked at it. Like her, the handwriting was elegance, and made him comfortable.

His nose suddenly picked up a faint and fresh flowery scent. He cocked an eyebrow at Jean. "Did you make this?"

"Yes." Jean nodded with a smile. "I really value this dinner, so I want to make sure that everything goes well."

"What about your hand?" Terence frowned.

"Don't worry, the pain is subsiding," Jean replied with a chuckle. "Once the stitches are removed, it'll be good as new."

Her sincerity embarrassed Terence. With a curt nod, he said, "Well, I'll take it."

"Then, I'll be waiting for you." Jean lowered her head and blushed.

When he arrived earlier, she could sense that he wasn't in a good mood, so she asked, "Are you in a bad mood? What happened?"

Jean decided to bring up the recent scandal involving Julia. "Is it because of my sister?"
