Chapter 805






























"Really?!" Narissa squealed in excitement.

"Narissa, have you always been that unreserved?" Jamie couldn't help but mock her.

"Would being reserved get me Swift's signature? I think you're jealous of me," she replied.

"Jealous of you?" Jamie got up on his feet and looked toward the kitchen before dashing over to Narissa's side. "I'd be over the moon if you managed to get a boyfriend. Since I'm your friend, I'll give you some advice; when selecting a boyfriend, both of you having similar interests isn't everything. You should also consider whether he is capable of taking care of you. Reporters are so busy that they won't even have time to cook their own meals. Do you want to be the one who takes care of him for the rest of your life?"

Just then, Jayden walked in with three plates of desserts. "Try some of these desserts that I've made. I used less sugar to make it less fattening."

"You know how to make desserts? They look as pretty as the ones we get from restaurants." Narissa was impressed.

"Since I attended college overseas, I missed the food back home a lot and would normally cook my own meals. After a while, I learned to cook a few dishes." He smiled as he passed her a plate.

Meanwhile, Jamie kept quiet and sat at the side when he saw the beautifully plated desserts on the table. He wanted to pick on some flaws at first, but after tasting it, the flavors were pretty good. Oddly enough, he didn't feel joy at all as he ate the delicious dessert.

"Yummy! It tastes great!" Narissa was at a loss for words after savoring it, nodding profusely with her eyes wide.

"Haha, Narissa, if you like it that much, you can come over to my house anytime," Jayden responded enthusiastically.

"Sure! I'll come over to have free food in future when I'm broke." She made an 'okay' gesture as she spoke.

"My pleasure." Jayden grinned.

Soon, both of them started chatting incessantly, but Jamie found it hard to join into their conversation. Both Narissa and Jayded even exchanged contact numbers before leaving.

Halfway through the car ride, Jamie was annoyed at how Narissa was constantly typing on the phone and scoffed. "Why not just stay over at his place? Isn't all that typing to reply to his messages tiring?"

"What do you mean?" She tilted her head and looked at him.

"What else would I mean?" He pretended to act casually and placed one of his elbows against the car window before continuing, "I'm just reminding you to not forget about your friend after meeting another man."

"Got it." She grinned and said, "You're jealous, aren't you? Instead of being sarcastic, you can just let me know if you are."

"Me? Jealous? Pfft! Who am I jealous of? Is there a reason for me to be jealous?" Jamie denied. "Well, you're not my only friend, so I can alway hang out with my other friends. I understand that you wouldn't let go of this chance now that you finally have an admirer, and as a friend, I don't want to make things hard for you. Just let me know if both of you are going out so that I wouldn't be third wheeling."

The more he said, the angrier she got. He seemed to want to make himself look considerate, but his words were sarcastic.

"Alright, I'll try dating him then," she answered angrily.

"Whatever." He stopped talking after that.

After that, Narissa intended to say something. Seeing that he was quiet, she immediately turned her body to the other side with her back facing him. No one spoke throughout the car ride.

In the middle of the night, Jacob was half awake when he heard sounds coming from the outside. Before he could open his eyes, he felt a finger pressed against his lips.

"Shh!"

He was instantly wide awake and was able to tell that the blurry silhouette standing next to him was Elise. After making sure that he was awake, she retracted her finger and squatted down cautiously.

"Master, what is it?" he whispered.

Hearing that, she lifted her chin while pointing at the balcony without speaking. Jacob got up, looked out at the balcony, and noticed a figure moving outside. Just as they were speaking, the person pushed open the glass door and entered the room.

"Hel—"

Before he could call for help, he was knocked unconscious. Noticing that, she got a silver needle out and held it in her hand, slowly stepping back under the cover of darkness.

Soon after, that figure stood up and walked toward her. His big and tall figure had blocked off all of the moonlight that was being casted in through the glass door. Elise held her breath as she prepared herself to attack. Just then, she heard a familiar voice.

"What alsa would I maan?" Ha pratandad to act casually and placad ona of his albows against tha car window bafora continuing, "I'm just raminding you to not forgat about your friand aftar maating anothar man."

"Got it." Sha grinnad and said, "You'ra jaalous, aran't you? Instaad of baing sarcastic, you can just lat ma know if you ara."
