A Night with Her Cruel Mate

"Maybe," Terence said lightly. "I’m worried about Jean not having anyone around her now."

"You are worried about Jean?" Nelson asked with a smirk on his face as if mocking. "Are you still sympathizing with her? Hey, does she have anything to do with you?"

"Nelson, Jean and I are friends. Is there anything wrong?" Terence’s face turned into a frown.

"Of course there is! Don’t you know that rumors are going around about what’s going on between the two of you?" said Nelson, obviously feeling very distressed about the matter.

"So what? There have been many gossips going about me these past years. And we all know, they are all fake. So, why should I give a damn?" Terence asked.

Nelson laughed sarcastically and said, "I’m afraid someone will take the rumors seriously."

"What do you mean by that?" Terence shook his head while still frowning.

"There are so many people in the hospital. It’s a little near to impossible that no one will recognize you. If they will, it can be used as solid evidence for your love affair with her. Do you have any idea how Julia will feel if she ever sees the news about it?" Nelson asked coldly. "Don’t tell me that you don’t care about Julia’s feelings. We’ve known each other for years, and I know exactly what you’re thinking about."

"You are overanalyzing this. Julia and I are already divorced. How many times do I have to repeat that? And in the future, I might marry Jean." Terence was lightly massaging his temples.

"What?" Hearing that from Terence, Nelson lost it. Smiling bitterly, he looked at Terence and said, "Well, you are just being stubborn. I want to see if you can be as calm as you are right now after Julia fall in love with another man."

He took a short breath and continued, "By then, don’t ask me out to drink with you. I won’t be available!"
