Chapter 107

Jared was still the same man I knew, who lived by the law of the jungle.

Hearing him say that didn’t surprise me. Jared didn’t like owing anyone anything, not even a debt of love.

But people like him were often cold and emotionally distant deep down. He rarely fell in love, but once he did, he could be absolutely intense.

In my previous life, the woman he loved deeply was Tracy. She was a force to be reckoned with, fighting her way through all his female confidantes and seizing every bit of his affection for herself.

Thinking about it, I felt pretty ridiculous. Tracy was playing the game with all her tricks, while all I did was love him, thinking that was enough.

No, that dopamine high only lasted about three months. If one really wanted to keep a man’s heart, it was all about knowing how to play the game.

Jared took me to breakfast at the hotel first, and then we headed straight to a high–end women’s boutique. In the VIP room, Jared lounged on the sofa while the sales assistant brought in a whole row of new arrivals.

I tried them on one by one, taking my sweet time picking out what I liked, like I was picking out vegetables at the market.

The sales assistant also brought over matching bags and shoes for each outfit.

Jared sat there like a perfect gentleman, giving his opinions on every look, but I ignored all the ones he liked and only bought the ones I thought looked good. Jared was left feeling totally helpless and a bit frustrated.

“Mr. Holcomb, your wife has such beautiful skin,” someone couldn’t help but compliment. That lake–green dress was really hard to pull off unless one had great skin, but on me, it looked especially fresh and charming.
