Chapter 352

It was nearly impossible for Rayna to meet his gaze.

In the end, she decided to lie.

Smiling, she shook her head and replied, "No, I won't leave you.I will always be by your side"

"Really?"

Jefferson's eyes lit up.It was as if he was rejuvenated when he heard her reply.

Then, he dragged her to the dining area.

"I cooked your favorite dishes for lunch," he said.

A pang of guilt struck Rayna's heart.She tried her best to put on a radiant smile and sat next to him at the table before praising him.

"Your culinary skills have improved greatly, Chef Hamilton!"

"Eat more, then"

"Don't worry.I will definitely finish all the food you cooked!"

Her words delighted Jefferson greatly.

With a chuckle, he served her a bowl of soup.

As Rayna was gobbling the food down, a bit of white cream got on the corner of her mouth.He reached out to wipe it off with his thumb, but she instinctively inched away and evaded his touch.

Jefferson paused in his motion, a gloomy look clouding his eyes.

Rayna had an awkward expression on her face as she whispered, "It's a subconscious reaction...Don't take it to heart."

"I got carried away."

Very soon, he revealed a warm smile and handed her a napkin.

"There's still plenty of time.I'm sure I can wait till the day you accept me"

Nodding, she said, "In one month, you will be well again!"

Jefferson put some food on her plate.It was not until minutes later he spoke again.

"The hotel is too boring; I don't want to stay here anymore.I want to stay at a place with more people and a garden."

"Sure.I will look for a place like that later in the afternoon" said Rayna hurriedly.

She was also aware that staying in a hotel was akin to staying in prison.It was not a surprise that he was getting bored.

"Let's plant camellias in the garden."

Jefferson recalled that woman's sharp words and how she had looked at him resentfully at the restaurant in Norwal City that day.His heart ached terribly, as if countless knives were stabbed into his chest.

The agonizing pain suffocated him.
