As she spoke, she made an effort to
withdraw her hand.
However, he held it firmly and said, Call
me Jay.
This is inappropriate, Mr. Reed. We-
Call me Jason. He insisted. Or do you want to hang out with me here?
Grace bit her lip and glanced around
from the corners of her eyes. Many people were looking sideways at them right now. If they stayed here, there was going to be a video of both of them put
up online soon.
Jay! she blurted out the word with
difficulty.
The next moment, he was smiling faintly.
Joy replaced the danger and fury in
those beautiful peach blossom eyes
Grace watched Jason walk into her rental house and wondered if she should move.
However, on second thought, even if she did move, he would still be able to enter
her house at any time.
What do you want? said Grace as she
glared at Jason.
Are you going to cook dinner? he asked, looking at some of the vegetables she had bought from the market earlier.
Yes, she said.
Make it for two. Ill have some too, he
said.
She paused before saying, I only bought enough vegetables for one. I dont have enough to make dinner for two. If youre hungry, you can eat in a restaurant or
order takeout.
I want to eat your cooking. If there arent enough ingredients, tell me what
else you need and Ill just get someone to
buy them.
Grace was silent. Knowing him, if he really decided to do something, then he would make it happen.
The difference was just the process.
Its just a meal. Ill just treat it as Im thanking him for saving my life today, she thought to herself. Then, with a long sigh, she turned to him and said, Alright, got it. Ill make dinner. Itll probably take
half an hour.
With that, she turned and went into the
kitchen to cook dinner.

Grace expertly washed and chopped the vegetables before cooking them.
On the other hand, Jason was looking at
her slender figure quietly.
It was as if by looking at her like this, he
could feel satisfied again.
These days when he was alone in the empty Reed Residence, his mind was full of her. Every night, he had to sleep in the bedroom that she used to sleep in with the blanket she used and the clothes she
did not take with her.
This way, it would feel as if he was
holding her in his arms.
Like someone dying of thirst in the desert, even sniffing her residual scent on these objects made him feel as if he
could still breathe.
It was not until now that he saw her and
she was really in sight that he felt alive.
It was like finally seeing the oasis in the desert and then desperately trying to get
close to the water
Grace finished cooking, took the food out of the kitchen, and put it on the
small dining table. Then, she handed the
chopsticks to Jason.
