my hero
eps 44s

Anin still did not say a word.

But my mind is in a mess.

Aunt Elena made me my favorite food, a typical Hualin City meal with lots of chili.

Chris allowed Aunt Elena to cook food for me, doesn't this mean she still cares about me?

But... Was he not afraid that Jade would be angry?

I was stabbing my food. Aunt Elena had been working hard on making my favorite spicy chicken food, but I couldn't swallow it. I don't even have the slightest appetite.

Anin sat in front of me to watch me eating food, there was no sign that she was about to leave.

I'm getting more and more restless.

Anin suddenly said: I have never seen Young Master solidify his heart at someone like this.

I raised my head in surprise and looked at Anin.

Anin chuckled at me and said: Actually the project that Chris Family is working on in Hualin City is long over. Third Young Master actually wanted to go straight back to the capital, but that day he changed his mind when he met you at the funeral... Then he specifically took on a project and collaborated with William. That's his way of dealing with William...

I squeezed the chopsticks in my hand. There was a hint of doubt in my heart and I did not dare to believe Anin's words.

Anin then continued: That day when you were detained by Grace, actually Third Young Master had already arrived at the Imperial Airport. But when he got the news, he immediately flew home to Hualin City to save you with his own two hands.

I widened my eyes. Now, I don't have the courage not to trust Anin. I looked at him fixedly.

Anin said: Then on your birthday... You can ask all the women in the Imperial City if ever Third Young Master thought of their birthday. They never even got the chance to invite Third Young Master to their birthday party. But just for your birthday only Third Young Master prepared so many surprises...

I bit the tip of my mouth hard and my heart was filled with all kinds of emotions.

Anin looked at me then continued: Miss Viona, everything I said is a secret between the two of us, there is no agreement from Third Young Master... I say this to you because I don't want to see Third Young Master so hard to get a woman's heart and end up giving up halfway.

My mind felt empty for a moment.

After a while, I finally found my voice again: He... Maybe it was because of my mother...

Anin shook her head and cut off my words: If that is the reason, then can't Third Young Master order all his men to help you? Why did he choose to intervene directly?

I closed my mouth. Like before, I didn't dare to believe Johnny's words.

Johnny then said: Third Young Master's feelings for you are different. I dare to vouch for this one thing.

I stared at the pair of chopsticks in my hand for a while. I don't know what to say.

For Chris, am I really someone valuable to him?

I don't know why, but there's not the slightest pleasure in my heart. I'm even feeling sad.

Even if it's true, then what can I do?

Although Chris and Jade are not married yet, Chris and I are separated like heaven and earth.

Moreover... Actually I can't believe Chris could ever put a taste in me.

Chris is a cloud in the sky, and I don't deserve to go after him. How could Chris like a lowly girl like me?

Johnny was silent for a moment and said: If you feel any objection to Miss Jade... In fact, Third Young Master and Miss Jade had already planned not to continue their engagement... I cannot explain this matter in detail to you, but you can trust Third Young Master completely... He is not someone who likes to play with marriage.

I looked into Anin's eyes but said nothing.

Jade has been acting like a hostess and she has even kicked me away.

At that time, Anin was also there. If there is no agreement from Chris, is it possible for Anin to let Jade bully me?

It just means one thing. Jade and Chris are engaged.

Now Anin says that the engagement is not true? I laughed silently in my heart. Does she think of me as a stupid woman who has no brain? That by hearing Chris' different treatment for me I'm going to melt down until I can't think clearly anymore?

I whispered softly: If... If Chris cares about me, why would he send me abroad?

Anin paused for a moment and then replied: For this matter, I cannot tell you.

My view became nilar.

Things couldn't be told to me, so how could I believe that Chris had special feelings for me?

Anin seems to know what I'm thinking. He sighed and said: I'm just telling you, there's no other meaning. Whether you believe me or not. I just want you to know the truth so that you can decide to trust Third Young Master or not...

I narrowed my eyes and looked straight at Johnny: You mean, I have to trust Chris, believe all his nonsense, then obey him go abroad?

Johnny laughed softly: No. I hope you stay here.

I looked at him surprised.

Johnny didn't say much more after that, but said: Please continue eating.

Seeing him go to the door, I couldn't help but ask: Chris let me go but you want me to stay... Aren't you afraid I'm telling Chris about this?

Anin turned her head to me and replied: He will not blame me.

I looked at him confused.

Anin laughed and said: You lower your position in his heart... In my opinion, Third Young Master is also feeling contradictory to himself. On the one hand, he wants you to stay but on the other hand he wants you to go to avoid this disagreement.

After saying that, Anin walked out.

I knit both my eyebrows.

Chris clearly told me to go abroad as soon as possible. I really didn't see any desire from him to stay.

I feed a spoonful of rice into my mouth, then shake my head slowly.

It seems Anin is just entertaining me.

Whatever the reason, I would never believe that Chris cared about me.

The turmoil in my heart kept me from sleeping all night.

But the good news is that now I have one certainty. Chris and Jade are engaged and I can't hope for anything. It's time to forcefully stop all the joy in my heart.

The next day, Anin took me to work. I no longer asked him about anything Chris had to do.

Anin is acting just like me. He returned to being his quiet self, as if Anin who yesterday told me everything was not the same as Anin who is now.

As soon as I got to the office, all my co-workers looked ordinary.

I breathed with relief.

To be honest, I was worried that everyone would treat me differently because of the problem that William caused yesterday.

I can't believe my co-workers are such kind people. There are no rumors spreading.

Steven just glanced at me and said: Help me fax these documents to our co-workers in the capital.

I raised the tip of my lips a little. Lfs nice.

In this way, the time to go home from work arrived.

At noon, Erick and Steven get a phone call. It looks like Melisa's case has made important progress. They both went out together.

I plan to go home from work with my colleagues. When I was thinking so, Jade suddenly came with a bodyguard.

He asked people to arrest me, and without saying anything, he slapped me twice.

I didn't react at all.

Jade poked at my chest and cursed: You cheap lady! Your face does look innocent, but you really are a woman jal*ng! You want to take my man? Have you never reflected?! See if you have the ability to do that!

After swearing, Jade took out a fruit knife out of nowhere and cut it right in front of my face.

I didn't have a chance to escape.

The knife slashed my face and I smelled blood in an instant. Then a great pain attacked my face.

And all this happened in just a few seconds.

All my co-workers could only stare in confusion before their consciousness finally returned and they quickly blocked Jade.

Jade laughed coldly: Step aside all of you! This is my problem with Viona. Anyone who dared to help him would have the same fate as him! Anyone who doesn't believe me, please try it!

Everyone was terrified to face Jade and no one made a sound anymore.

I endured the pain I felt and with a trembling voice said: Miss Jade, you seem to have misunderstood...

Jade had no interest in listening to my explanation and slapped the side of my unharmed face: Shut the fuck up! Don't ever think I don't know how low you are! Just keep those sweet words in front of Chris!

Jade used a tenth of her power and I was hit back a few steps. My body hit the desk behind me.

Because I was wearing short sleeves, my elbows hit the corner of the table and blood flowed out.

I clenched my teeth and refrained from screaming in pain.

Jade really didn't want to let me go. He walked over and grabbed my hair.

Jade looked at my neck straight and exclaimed: How could this talisman possibly be on you?!

Jade forced me to look into both her eyes.

His eyes were so cold, there was absolutely no warmth in them: This was Chris' mother's relic for him! He always wears this... And it turns out he gave it to you!
