A Night with Her Cruel Mate

Chapter 70 She Got Jealous

Jean got up early the next morning to prepare breakfast. When Terence went downstairs, he was greeted with a table of freshly cooked food.

"Good morning." Jean's cheerful voice chirped as she put milk on the table. She beamed at Terence and said, "Come have breakfast.

I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I prepared a lot."

"Did you cook all of this?" he asked in surprise. Since he and Julia got married, he had seldom stayed over in the villa. Last night, he stayed over because of Jean's situation. However, he wasn't able to sleep very well. Every time he closed his eyes, he saw Julia's face.

"Yes," she replied, grinning from ear to ear.

"You don't have to do this." He frowned at her. "You are still injured. You should be resting in your room."

"I'm used to being busy." Jean shook her head and gave him a pointed look. "How can I rest at home? I have to go to the set later."

"To the filming site?" Terence asked in surprise.

"Yes." Jean chuckled. "Did you forget? I told you yesterday that I'm a scriptwriter. I have to go there because we're changing some scenes."

"But will you be able to work with your injury?" His voice was filled with concern and worry.

"Don't worry. I'm fine." Jean smiled. "I was alone abroad, so I'm used to taking care of myself."

Terence arched his eyebrows and was impressed. Although she looked so weak and fragile, he was surprised that she was incredibly independent and strong.

"Let me take you there after breakfast," Terence offered with a gentle look. He remembered her telling him that Julia was there. He might even run into her.

"But won't it be too much trouble for you?" Jean was elated inwardly. She originally planned to ask Terence to drive her there, but it was great that he offered to go himself.

"Not at all." Terence sat down and filled his bowl with porridge. "You prepared me a good breakfast. I will send you to work to as a way of expressing my gratitude."

"Alright, thank you." Jean happily devoured her breakfast.

On their way to the set, Terence saw that Jean had packed some steamed buns and milk. His eyes widened in confusion. "Do the crew members not have breakfast?"

"They do, but everyone is so busy that they don't have time to eat," Jean explained. "Milk and steamed buns are convenient for them to eat. Shooting scenes looks easy, but it's actually tiring. It's also hard to focus if you're not healthy. That's why I bring some food with me every time I go to the set."

Terence nodded as he heard this. Jean was so much kinder and more considerate compared to Julia.

"Here we are." Jean pointed to the sign of the set and faced him. "Thank you so much for driving me here. I'll go inside now."

"Okay." Terence nodded.

He drove a red and eye-catching sports car, which made his vehicle stand out among the vans. The moment Terence parked on the curb, it attracted a lot of curious stares. Jean triumphantly smiled, satisfied with her vain entrance.

She watched as Terence's car drove away. Just when she was about to enter, a mocking voice came from behind her. "Stop looking. He's already gone."

"Lisa?" Jean eyes widened when she turned around to see her friend smiling. Shyly, she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "What are you talking about?"

"Are you still hiding it from me?" Lisa smiled. "Just by looking at your expression, it's obvious that you're in love."

"Don't talk nonsense." Jean blushed, trying to brush the comment aside.

"Nonsense?" Lisa curled her lips. "I saw you from my van. I'm guessing that everyone now knows about your relationship because Mr. Chen drove you here in such a frivolous car."

"Is it?" Jean didn't bother to admit or deny what Lisa said.

"Don't hide it from me." Lisa laughed. "You two arrived together early this morning. Did you stay over at his place last night? Tell me, how does a cold man like Mr. Chen behave in bed? Is he very strong?"

"Stop it." Jean smiled awkwardly. "Come on in. Don't you have to shoot later?"

"You are being shy," Lisa teased.

The set was a very small place. Soon enough, everyone knew that Terence had sent Jean to work. While Julia was sitting in the dressing room, she overheard several girls gossiping about her sister.

"Did you hear that? Mr. Chen drove Miss Gu to work today."

"Mr. Chen? Terence Chen from HT Group?" Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Yes!"

"Does he know Miss Gu?"

"Miss Gu is his fiancee. I heard that they are going to get married. The paparazzi took photos of them picking wedding rings together a few days ago. It seems like something good is going to happen."

"I don't think so. He is handsome and rich. There has never been any scandal about him. How can he be with Miss Gu?"

"Is Miss Gu not good enough? She is good-looking, talented, and well-known. I think they are a perfect match."

"Yes, you're right. They're perfect for each other."

Although Julia didn't want to hear what they were saying, the dressing room was so small that she could hear every word clearly.

She reminded herself that she and Terence were divorced. She thought that as long as she devoted herself to work, she could completely forget him. But she was wrong.

Every time she heard his name, she always got upset.

Whenever Jean's name was also mentioned, she immediately got jealous.

"Julia, you are here." Julia jumped in her seat as Jean disrupted her inner thoughts. She saw her sister carrying breakfast. "I've been looking for you everywhere."

"What do you want to say?" Julia arched an eyebrow at her.
