Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 416 Secretly Jealous

Being the clever person she was, Elspeth naturally understood what was happening. It was obvious that the girl was secretly jealous. Hence, she quickly explained, “He’s signed under my company. How would I explain to his parents if something were to happen to him?”

That was her indirect way of confirming that they had no romantic relationship, putting Aldea’s jealous heart to rest.

Aldea raised her head, revealing her moist eyes. “I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been talking and distracting him, he wouldn’t have gotten into an accident.”

Barely managing to smile, Elspeth patted Aldea’s hand. “Don’t blame yourself. How is any of this your fault? It’s his problem.”

Although what she said was not fair to the unconscious guy on the hospital bed, she did not care because he could not hear her anyway.

“How is it my problem?” Suddenly, a raspy, frustrated voice came from behind them.

The ladies turned around in shock and saw that the person in bed had opened his eyes, which seemed a little blurry.

“You’re back already? It seems like you’re a lucky man.” Elspeth smiled as she placed the fruit basket on the bedside table.

“It feels great to be able to see you when I wake up. So, you are worried about me. If you weren’t, you wouldn’t rush to the hospital as soon as you found out I was in a car accident.” Jethro was grinning mischievously and spoke without bothering about how others felt.

So, when Aldea heard his words, her face turned ashen.

Meanwhile, Elspeth clucked her tongue and rebuked, “I was worried I wouldn’t be able to face your parents if something happened to you. Otherwise, why would I care if you’re dead or alive? Stop flattering yourself.”

Still, he stubbornly argued, “I don’t care. You still came over in a hurry.”

The scene of the two conversing made Aldea feel like an outsider, who mumbled, “Why don’t I leave and let you guys have the room to yourselves?”

Jethro waved his hand unconcernedly. “Go ahead. You can head home alone. The rain has stopped too.”

Both of them were in the accident together, but he was not the least bit concerned for her. Feeling devastated and humiliated, Aldea hurriedly left without informing Elspeth as though she was running away from danger.

While watching her leave, Elspeth shot him a death stare. “Watch how you speak. At the very least, she was sent here with you and took care of you for a while. How can you treat your savior that way?”

Jethro spread his hand. “Would I have gotten into an accident if it hadn’t been for her?”

She had another idea. “Are you saying she affects your emotions whenever you’re together?”

If that were true, it meant Jethro still reserved some feelings for Aldea.
