Her Return, His Regret by Natie

There was an air of awkwardness between Lora and Jason on their way back.

Lora had noticed her lipstick was smudged when she was about to get into the car. She had seen her reflection in the window and her heart raced erratically.

A flare of guilt rushed through her. What would Jason think of her now?

Clearing her throat, she glanced at Jason who was focusing on the road and asked, "Why are you not saying anything?"

Jason arched and eyebrow at Lora and questioned, "About what?"

The words got stuck in Lora's throat. How was she supposed to ask her boyfriend why he wasn't confronting her when he had noticed that another man had kissed her? She furrowed her eyebrows and replied, "Actually, I didn't know Ryan would follow me to the restroom. I-"

"You don't need to explain anything to me, Lora," Jason said, interrupting Lora's words. "I trust you. If something happened, then it could only be Ryan Kingsley's fault."

Lora bit her lower lip as guilt completely filled her heart. What did she do to deserve someone like Jason? He was so kind and nice to her.

She felt Jason's hand on hers and looked up at him.

Jason smiled and added, "I don't care what Ryan does. What I care about is what is in your heart. Do you want to be with him? Even though he's with the woman who plagiarised your work?" "Never," Lora replied without hesitation.

Jason's words made her came back to her senses. What was she thinking back there when she let Ryan kiss her and kissed him back? Did his flirting make her forget who he really was? 'Lora, never forget how he saved Ivy and left you to die. He will always love her and put her first,' Lora told herself in her mind.

Jason smiled at Lora and remarked, "See? I have nothing to worry about."
