*Chapter 21*"Who are we going to pick? I should have asked this question before agreeing to give you a ride," Jayden laments. Evelyn blinks her eyelashes rapidly, glancing at her boss. Why did he bring up the question? They are almost at the shopping mall. She beams an evil smile."You know what, drive the car back to the company. Then, you can ask me the question and we can start our journey again.," She rambles.He glares at her."You are crazy, Evelyn,""Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Jayden," She says sarcastically."So, are you going to get a cab to drive you home after I drop you at the mall?"He asks.She pouts her lips."Why can't you just help me? Can't you drop me home?"Jayden stares at her briefly."Stop doing that," He utters. Evelyn scoffs."What?""Pouting your lips. It is not cute and it doesn't fit you," He lies.Deep down in his mind, he likes how she pushes out her lips like a spoiled little girl. She looks cute while doing that. He lied that it doesn't suit her,

*Chapter 23*This time around, Jayden is the one who receives the shock. Initially, he thinks that telling Evelyn to cook for him in her house will make her give up. He thinks she will leave his office the moment he says "Cook for me", but she proves him wrong. She agreed to cook for him. What is wrong with Evelyn?Jayden gazes at her with a suspicious look."Are you sure? Do you even understand what I just said? You are going to cook a meal for me, in your house," He tells her. Evelyn beams a sweet smile at him. He thinks that she looks more beautiful while smiling. Her smile is so real and gorgeous.Jayden quickly cautions himself from thinking about her looks. That is the beginning of simping for her again. "I am serious, Mr. Jayden. I am willing to cook for you if that is what you want," She says, grinning from ear to ear. He gives me a half-shrug."Evelyn Jones, you know you told me about your bad culinary skills. You can't cook, this lady. Don't bother yourself and don't waste

Chapter 25Jayden takes a deep breath, rocking back and forth on his chair. He knows that he has messed up, but it is not his fault. He can't possibly ignore the feelings he has for his ex-girlfriend. He doesn't love her anymore. At least, he is sure of that. He has gotten over the love he has for her or the heartbreak he made him pass through. Those things made him stronger.But, he only had a completely different type of feeling when he saw her, after a very long time. Jayden shut his eyes tightly."I don't love Skylar Jones anymore. It is not possible for me to love a cheat," He says in his mind. His mind goes to Evelyn. He is sure that she is pissed off with him right now. How will he apologize to her? He shouldn't have left her hanging in that way. He recalls the confusion and hurt in Evelyn's brown eyes when he barked at her. His hands squeeze into fists. What has he done? He hurt her with how he acted and what he said to her, and Joe too. He is also angry with him. Well, Joe i

Chapter 27Marina dropped her spoon on the plate, her eyes wide open. "Are you playing with my heart? Mr. Jayden asked you to accompany him to the night party," She rambles loudly. Evelyn shrugs, looking at her over-dramatic friend. She glances around the cafeteria, checking if people are staring at them, but they are not. Everyone else is enveloped in their world. She heaves a sigh of relief, then faces her friend."I am not kidding. It is not a big deal, anyway,"Marina shoots her friend a deadly glare."It is a big deal, dummy. The CEO of Turner Industries asked you out on a date," She utters. Eve let out a loud hiss. "Stop making a big deal out of this stuff. It is normal. Besides, I have a boyfriend. You shouldn't be too happy about this," She says. Marina frowns. "Wait, I think Morris Anthony also invited you to the same night party, right?" She asks her friend. "That is the main problem. Morris invited me to the night party, and Jayden also invited me even though his approa

Chapter 29"You are not really a bad dancer. I also think that you are a fast learner," Jayden compliments Evelyn, beaming a smile at her.They are not dancing anymore, but they are still on the dance floor, holding hands like two lovebirds, smiling excitedly at each other. "Thank you," Evelyn smiles shyly, wondering why she's so happy and smiling sheepishly since she came to this dinner party. She loves the harmony between her and her boss tonight, though. They don't argue about anything, he doesn't get on her nerves, and she doesn't disobey him. They just danced silently, gazing into each other's beautiful eyes."What's on your mind, Evelyn?" Jayden asks, snapping her out of her thoughts. She opens her mouth to say something, but her mouth quickly closes when she feels a cold liquid soak her dress. Her jaw drops and she quickly turns to see that someone just spilled red wine on her dress. The waitress gasps sharply as she quickly squats and cleans her dress, uttering words of apo
