Chapter 430 Strange Soup

When Lacey was at home, she saw Jaylon's car downstairs and knew that he was the man who sent Reina back last time. She couldn't help but be excited.

After that night, Lacey asked someone to investigate Jaylon's identity, but they were in different classes, and the people they met were even more different.

Although Lacey knew that Jaylon was the executive president of Mimo Group in America, she couldn't get in touch with him.

Lacey hadn't seen Jaylon contact Reina for the past few days. She thought that she would never see him again, but she didn't expect that this person would personally send Reina back again.

Lacey thought Reina did not have any strength, but that Reina had a pretty face.

Jaylon had sent Reina home twice, and it was obvious that he was

interested in Reina. Lacey thought that she had to help Reina win this man's heart.

"Reina, aren't you going to attend a friend's wedding? Why are you back so late?"

The wedding banquet ended at two o'clock. It was already half past five in the afternoon.

Seeing Lacey smile kindly, Reina had a bad feeling. She said to Jaylon, "Mr. Malpas, put me down. You can go back."

Lacey knew Reina's personality best. Judging from Reina's look, Lacey thought Reina did not like Jaylon.

But Lacey liked Jaylon's money very much and could not let him go. "Reina, this gentleman was kind enough to send you back, but you didn't ask him to stay for dinner. It's impolite."

"Sir, come in and have dinner before leaving."

Jaylon lightly replied with an "okay" and carried Reina into the house.

Reina rented an old apartment with two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen, and one bathroom. The conditions were not too bad, but for someone of Jaylon's status, it was still a little shabby.

Perhaps it was because of the shameful contract in the past, Reina was always unable to raise her head in front of Jaylon. There was a slight sense of inferiority hidden in her heart.

After entering the apartment, Reina was not worried that Lacey would say something she should not say, but that Jaylon would most likely dislike her family's environment.

However, Jaylon just put her on the sofa with an indifferent expression. There was no trace of disgust on his face.

Reina thought, or perhaps Jaylon is looking down on me in his heart, but he did not show it.

Reina grabbed the hem of her clothes tightly and sat on the sofa without saying a word.

Lacey walked over and intended to go into the kitchen, saying, "Reina, come over and help me cook."

Hearing Lacey command Reina in such a habitual tone, Jaylon was dissatisfied.

He took into account that Lacey was Reina's mother, so he held back his

anger.

"Her foot is injured. Let me do it."

As Jaylon spoke, he rolled up his sleeves.

"You know how to cook?" Lacey was a little surprised.

Jaylon replied frankly, "No."

Reina was amused by him. Sensing Jaylon's surprised gaze, she immediately stopped laughing and returned to her usual cold appearance.

Of course, Lacey would not let Jaylon cook. In the end, she entered the kitchen herself.

Jaylon looked down at Reina, his face expressionless, but Reina felt that he was in a good mood.

He said, "I thought you wouldn't smile at me."

Ever since the two of them reunited, Reina had never smiled at Jaylon. On

the contrary, she smiled at others countless times.

For example, Reina once smiled at Vincent, her first boyfriend.

When Jaylon thought of Vincent, the good mood that he had just had

instantly disappeared.

Although Jaylon had asked Reina that night and already knew that the two

of them had only held hands in the past, he still felt as uncomfortable as if a rock had been pressed against his heart.

Before Reina, he had never been close to any woman, not even hugging or holding hands.

Jaylon hoped that Reina could be the same as him.

But she was not.

Reina clearly felt that his mood had changed. She did not know why Jaylon

was happy for a while and then put on a face, but she did not take the

initiative to ask him.

If it was possible, she could not wait for Jaylon to not talk to her and leave immediately after having dinner.

Suddenly, Jaylon asked, "Have you been in contact with Vincent recently?"

"I have already resigned. How can I be in contact with him?"

In fact, Vincent had contacted her on Line recently, and Vincent was also

helping her with the fake identity card issue.

She naturally could not tell Jaylon about these things.

Before leaving Boston, Reina could not leak any information.

Hearing her say this, Jaylon felt much better.

Lacey served the dishes to the table and asked the two to have dinner.

Jaylon reached out to help Reina, but Reina avoided him. He stretched out his hand again and pulled Reina's arm over, letting her walk with his help. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Reina couldn't turn him off, so she had to give up.

The two sat down, and Lacey had already enthusiastically filled the two bowls of soup.

"Reina, Mr. Malpas, drink this soup and see how it tastes. I just learned how

to make it. Today is my first time cooking it."

Reina did not have the habit of drinking soup when eating, but since Lacey

had specially said that, she only took a sip.

"Pretty good."

Lacey rarely cooked at home, so her cooking skills were average.

Although the soup was not bad, it was not very delicious.

When Lacey saw Reina drink the soup, her eyes flashed with an unknown

light. She urged Jaylon to drink as well. "Mr. Malpas, you should try it too."

Jaylon respectfully picked up the bowl and drank half of it in one gulp.

His prominent Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he swallowed it, revealing an indescribable sexiness.

After drinking it, Jaylon gave the same evaluation as Reina. "Pretty good."

"As long as it's okay, I'm relieved." Lacey chuckled heartily.

After a few minutes, Lacey suddenly received a call and the one at the other end of the line asked her to go downstairs to get something.

Lacey hung up the phone and stood up. "My friend is here. He asked me to

go downstairs to get something. Excuse me. Reina, stay here with our

guest."

Reina guessed that her friends who were outside had come over. Because Jaylon was here, she didn't let him come up.

Not long after Lacey left, Jaylon's expression suddenly darkened. He stood

up and walked to the door.

As expected, the door was locked from the outside.

"What's wrong?" Reina looked at him strangely.

Jaylon opened his mouth, "The door is locked. There is something wrong

with the soup."

He had already drunk half a bowl in the beginning, and now his body was

starting to heat up.

Reina reacted for two seconds. She looked at the soup that she had almost

finished and quickly put down the spoon, ready to call her friend on her

mobile phone.

After searching for a while, she found that the mobile phones that they had

placed on the table had been taken away.

Jaylon apparently also noticed this. He opened the bathroom door and

went straight in to take a cold shower.

Jaylon said that he would give Reina a month to calm down. In the case

that she did not deliberately provoke him, he did not want to use force to get her.

He took off his suit and unscrewed the shower.

The cold water droplets smashed on his body, but the restlessness in his

body did not subside at all but crazily shouted. He wanted to press the woman outside under him.

It was just like the countless days and nights that they had been together. He wanted her to cry and say his name on the bed again.

Recalling the madness and indulgence of the past, Jaylon almost lost his

reason.

Jaylon desperately suppressed his desire and threw out all the images in

his mind that were confusing and impulsive.

"Jaylon."

The moment the woman came up to him from behind, Jaylon froze.
