Chapter 352

It was nearly impossible for Rayna to meet his gaze.

In the end, she decided to lie. Smiling, she shook her head and replied, “No, I won’t leave you. I will always be by your side.”

“Really?” Jefferson’s eyes lit up. It was as if he was rejuvenated when he heard her reply. Then, he dragged her to the dining area.

“I cooked your favorite dishes for lunch,” he said.

A pang of guilt struck Rayna’s heart. She tried her best to put on a radiant smile and sat next to him at the table before praising him. “Your culinary skills have improved greatly, Chef Hamilton!”

“Eat more,

“Don’t worry. I will definitely finish all the food you cooked!”

“Sure. I will look for a place like that later in the afternoon,” said Rayna hurriedly. She was also aware that staying in a hotel was akin to staying in prison. It was not a surprise that he was getting bored. “Let’s plant camellias in the garden.”

Jefferson recalled that woman’s sharp words and how she had looked at him resentfully at the restaurant in Norwal City that day. His heart ached terribly, as if countless knives were stabbed into his chest. The agonizing pain suffocated him.
