Chapter 323

Gregory hadn’t fallen asleep yet.

Licking my lips, I began earnestly, “Sorry I broke your piggy bank that day”

At the mention of that, he yanked off his sleep mask, a hint of annoyance flickering in his weary eyes. “Jane, you’re a pushover outside, aren’t you? The only place you know how to rub someone the wrong way is here with me, right?”

“That’s not it.” I hurriedly said, pulling out a little rabbit figurine made by a potter, trying to calm his irritation. “Here’s a replica of that rabbit, made to look just like it. I hope this makes up for my mistake that day”

In all faimess, I had no right to touch his piggy bank. But then, I’d acted impulsively, and later, I couldn’t understand why I would have meddled with someone else’s belongings.

I answered, “I made it.”
