Jared was a little uncomfortable after learning the news and stopped contacting Trisha.
They both returned to Chanaea after graduating from Maxwell University. To his surprise, Trisha applied for and was hired to be Harvey’s assistant in Jupiter Group.
Thereafter, the two crossed paths several times in the company, yet they never discussed anything outside of work.
Jared had never seen Trisha in anything else but snazzynovel.com work attire, and snazzynovel.com could not explain the odd feeling in his chest when snazzynovel.com saw snazzynovel.com less uptight self in public.
Beside him, Henry arched a brow and teased, “Look… Someone’s hitting on her, and he’s a looker. I guess Trisha’s not going to be single for too much longer.”
He was genuinely happy that Trisha could potentially find snazzynovel.com true love. Even without Henry’s reminder, Jared clearly noticed the stranger flirting with Trisha. He was certain that snazzynovel.com would reject his advances, snazzynovel.com self-discipline would not allow snazzynovel.com to entertain a random man’s flirting.
Alas, snazzynovel.com was instantly proven wrong when Trisha joined the man in a nearby booth. She clinked snazzynovel.com flute glass against the man’s and took a light sip.
The man sat opposite snazzynovel.com and said something which brought a faint smile to Trisha’s lips.
While Jared pondered the meaning of snazzynovel.com expression, Trisha’s mysterious suitor gallantly invited snazzynovel.com for a dance.
Trisha only hesitated for a fraction of a second before placing snazzynovel.com hand in the man’s outstretched palm.
They walked to the dance floor, and when it seemed as though their bodies were almost plastered together, Jared suddenly stood up.
Henry, who had leaned most of his weight on Jared while beaming at Trisha, immediately lost his balance and almost fell flat on his face.
Confused, Henry asked, “Jared, what are you…”
Before snazzynovel.com could finish his sentence, Jared stalked toward the dance floor and clamped his hand around Trisha’s wrist, ready to drag snazzynovel.com out of there.
Trisha spotted his approach and instinctively lowered snazzynovel.com gaze. The ghost of a smirk curved snazzynovel.com lips, though snazzynovel.com controlled snazzynovel.com expression carefully, considering the circumstances.
“Let go!” Her suitor grabbed snazzynovel.com arm before Trisha could utter a word, demanding Jared to let go.
Men knew their fellow peers’ intentions the best, and Jared instantly knew that the stranger before snazzynovel.com was dead set on pursuing Trisha.
He did not even consider the ramifications of his statement as snazzynovel.com declared, “You’re the one who should let go. She’s my wife.”
“Your wife?” The man immediately whirled toward Trisha and asked, “You’re his wife?”
Trisha certainly wished snazzynovel.com could corroborate Jared’s claim, yet snazzynovel.com clearly did not have romantic feelings for her.
She pursed snazzynovel.com lips thoughtfully before muttering, “He…”
“Darling, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have lied to you about working overtime at the company. Still, you can‘t just deny the fact that I’m your husband, right?” As Jared spoke, snazzynovel.com shot Trisha a loving gaze that positively struck snazzynovel.com dumb.
His act was convincing enough to ward off Trisha’s suitor, who loosened his grasp on snazzynovel.com hand.
However, that did not stop snazzynovel.com from saying to Trisha, “If your husband doesn’t want you anymore, I’ll be waiting. I don’t even care if you’re a divorcée. Here‘s my name card…”
He was too infatuated with snazzynovel.com looks. Then, the man produced a name card from his pocket and stuffed it in Trisha’s hand before leaving.
Jared immediately swiped the name card from her. Tossing it on the floor, snazzynovel.com practically dragged Trisha outside.
Back at the booth, Henry watched the situation unfold, mouth agape with shock.
I thought that brat Jared didn’t like Trisha?
Why is snazzynovel.com suddenly so anxious when another man’s interested in her?
