A Night with Her Cruel Mate

Chapter 207 Culprit

"Grandma..." Jean smiled and stopped Sandra from saying anything. She said to Sandra, "What are you talking about? Isn't this what I should do?" © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"I just feel sorry for you." Sandra sighed and said, "You're a girl. You have to take care of me in the daytime and go back to work in the evening. Don't you think it's too hard?"

Sandra held Jean's hand and continued, "How about this? You don't have to come here these two days. Go back and have a good rest. Anyway, I'm going to leave the hospital soon, and I have a nursing worker to take care of me. You don't have to come and go every day like this. It's too hard."

"No way!" Without hesitation, Jean turned down Sandra's suggestion and said to Sandra, "Grandma, how could the nursing worker be so considerate? I'm not that busy these days anyway. "

"But..."

"Don't hesitate." Jean smiled and said to Sandra, "To be honest, I'm really worried about you."

Terence had been watching them all the time. Sandra groaned and became more and more satisfied with Jean in front of her. She looked at Terence and said, "I've read the news on the newspaper. I know that Jean is a good girl. If you really like her, you should marry her as soon as possible. Don't hesitate, understand?"

"I see." Terence said lightly.

He didn't retort because he didn't want Sandra to worry about him.

But to be honest, Terence felt bad when he saw that Jean tried so hard to take care of his grandma.

As her own grandson, he couldn't do everything she did in person.

"Grandma, since you don't have anything else to do, I'll go first." Terence stood up. Seeing that there was Jean taking care of Sandra, Terence was relieved. He stood up and said to Sandra, "I have a meeting later, so I'm leaving now."

"Okay, go ahead." Sandra nodded slightly and said to Jean, "Please help me send Terence to the door."

"But..." Jean frowned slightly.

"Go ahead. I also want to sleep for a while." Sandra interrupted Jean and winked at her.

It was a good chance to stay alone with Terence.

Of course, Jean wouldn't miss it. She was a little reserved and followed Terence.

She kept her head down all the time, thinking about what she should say to Terence. Before Terence could react, she bumped into Terence's back.

She rubbed her nose and asked awkwardly, "Why Why do you suddenly stop? "

"Are you free now?" Terence glanced at Jean and asked.

"What?" Jean was stunned and didn't know how to answer.

"If you have time Can you accompany me to the coffee shop opposite? I also have something to talk with you. " Terence said lightly.

Jean had been waiting for a long time, waiting for Terence to talk to her.

Although he admitted his identity in front of the reporters that night, Terence had behaved differently these days.

He even treated her less affectionately than before.

She had always wanted to have a good talk with Terence, but she was afraid that Terence would dislike her. Now it was finally Terence who took the initiative to talk to her.

"But grandma..." Jean hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid no one will take care of me."

"Don't worry. Grandma has almost recovered, and And the nursing worker. My parents will come soon. " Terence said indifferently, "I'll take up your time for a while."

"All right." Jean nodded.

The two of them went to a quiet corner of the coffee shop and sat down. Terence handed the menu to Jean and said, "Have a look at what to drink."

"It's up to you. I can do whatever you want." With a smile, Jean gave the choice to Terence.

Terence ordered a cup of black coffee and a cup of latte for Jean. He didn't say anything until the waiter came to serve the coffee.

Jean was very nervous. She didn't know what Terence wanted to say to her. Seeing that half of the black coffee in front of Terence had been drunk, she couldn't hold it anymore.

"Well..." She coughed and said to Terence, "Did you come here just to have coffee with you?"

"Of course not." Terence finally put down the coffee in his hand and said to Jean, "Grandma told me that when she was in hospital Thanks to your care, she can recover so soon. "

"That's it?" Jean smiled, "What's the relationship between us two? Why do you say that for this matter? Besides, I've heard that grandma was hospitalized mostly because of me. It's my duty to take care of her. "

"Jean..." Terence hesitated for a while and said to Jean, "Don't say that. It has nothing to do with you."

"Why not?" Looking at Terence indifferently, Jean continued, "After all, grandma quarreled with aunt because of me. I'm the one who should be blamed."

She smiled bitterly and said, "I'm doing this to make myself feel better."

"It really has nothing to do with you." Terence frowned slightly, "You don't have to be burdened by this matter."

"You asked me to Just to tell me about it? " Frowning, Jean asked Terence.

Terence lowered his head and said nothing.

Of course he didn't ask for help from Jean, but He really didn't know what to say.

"What happened?" Asked Jean.

"Jean, I..." Terence hesitated for a moment. If it had been in the past, he would have been straightforward. But now he knew Jean's love for him, and Jean had helped him take care of his grandmother for so long. He really couldn't say these words.

"What's wrong with you? It's not your style to hem and haw. " With a slight frown, Jean said to Terence, "Just say it. You don't have to do this in front of me."

"Then I'll go straight to the point." Terence hesitated for a long time and finally decided to say.
