A Night with Her Cruel Mate

The people in the company were completely stunned. They could only watch on with wide eyes as Terence carried Jean into the elevator. The closing of the elevator doors was just like a call that snapped them out of their daze. They immediately gathered in groups and started gossiping in full swings.

"Did you see that? Mr. Chen seemed very worried about Miss Gu."

"Yes, I’ve been saying for a long time that they aren’t just friends. It’s just that they’ve always refused to admit it. I'd like to see how they're going to deny it now."

"I think Miss Gu and Mr. Chen are a good match. They’re both nice people. It'll be nice if they really get together."

The crowd's chatters made Jillian frown. "That'll do. Do you all have nothing to do now? Be careful that Mr. Chen will deduct your salary if he hears you gossiping about him!"

The moment Jillian finished saying that, everyone else rushed away and went about their respective business like scattered bees. Jillian, however, remained where she was, staring at the direction Terence left in. She always felt like there was something amiss.

"You can put me down now." Jean had her arms around Terence's neck. Despite the contentment she felt inside, she still had to say that to keep up appearances. Fortunately for her, he turned deaf ears to her remark.

With a cold expression, he said to the person in his arms, "Don't move."

Upon hearing what Terence said, Jean didn't dare to say anything further. He took her to the hospital to get a check-up, and it was only after the doctor said that there was nothing serious that his tense expression finally eased down a little.
