Chapter 42 Let's Date
Be friends first? Did he want to play with Joy's affection or did he not find Joy attractive? Jacquelyn glanced at Elvis's handsome face and felt that the second possibility was more reliable. She felt anxious and tugged at Rejoyla's hand under the table.
Rejoyla didn't catch Elvis's implied meaning and thought that he was right. After all, how could two people who just met make any progress? Rejoyla didn't believe in love at first sight and believed that love was built up over time. Elvis gave her a good impression, but unfortunately, if it weren't for the things between her and Jason, she wouldn't mind getting to know him. Thinking of Jason, Rejoyla no longer found Elvis attractive and avoided Elvis's smiling gaze, looking down and poking the rose pastry on her plate with a fork.
Elvis was surprised by Rejoyla's avoidance and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes. After all, his appearance had always been advantageous. and few women could resist him. He didn't expect that Elvis wasn't interested in him!
"Joy, may I call you like this? What do you like to eat? The grilled meat in this restaurant is good. Do you want to try it?" "Sure, you decide!”
Slapping off Jacquelyn's hand that was pulling her under the table, Rejoyla reluctantly agreed. Didn't he call her Miss Lynn earlier? Why did he suddenly change his address? He didn't seem like the kind of person who was overly familiar with others.
After Elvis ordered the food, Jacquelyn suddenly took out her phone and looked at it. "Oh, Burton wants me to go back. I won't accompany you anymore. Mr. LimBurton, I'll go back first!”
"Since Mr. Sterling has something to do, you should go back. I'll take care of Joy."
Elvis smiled and nodded. The more Jacquelyn looked at him. the more satisfied she felt. She let go of her grievances toward Burton. It was clear that Burton valued her since he introduced such a good man to Rejoyla.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
After giving Rejoyla a warning with her eyes to not cause any trouble, Jacquelyn immediately left, leaving the two alone. Burton didn't look for her, and that was just an excuse she made. After observing Elvis for a while. she was sure that Elvis was reliable, so she wouldn't stay as a third wheel.
The atmosphere between them became a bit awkward after Jacquelyn left. Of course, this was what Rejoyla thought. Elvis didn't feel any awkwardness and casually looked at Rejoyla’s face before asking, "Are you the only daughter in your family, Joy?”
"Um, no, I have an older sister and a younger sister." "Oh, Ms. Howardson is lucky to have three daughters. But you don't look like Ms. Howardson. Do your other sisters look like you?"
"Is that so? I heard that I look a lot like my aunt, but I've never met her, so I don't know if it's true." Rejoyla blinked, feeling like something was wrong Elvis's questions were too detailed. She couldn't quite put her finger on it, but the way he looked at her always made her uncomfortable.
Rejoyla took a closer look and felt she had thought too much. Elvis’s eyes were clearly gentle.
"By the way, Mr. LimBurton, why did you come to this blind date?"
Elvis propped his elbow on the table and smiled warmly. His black eyes were bright as he gazed directly at Rejoyla. "To meet you, of course!" Rejoyla blushed and widened her eyes. She didn't expect such a clean and elegant man to say something like that. She didn't know how to respond. Elvis squinted at Lin's round cat-like eyes, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. Rejoyla did look like her!
"Ha-ha, Mr. LimBurton, you're quite the joker!"
"Whaat if I'm not joking? Joy, let's date!" Elvis didn't give Rejoyla a chance to make an excuse. He stood up suddenly and took her hands, staring at her with intense focus. It was as if he was looking at his entire world, and his eyes were filled with intoxicating tenderness!
Rejoyla opened her mouth wide. She was so shocked that she stammered, "Didn't you say... we should get to know each other first?” "Yes, I've known you, so I've fallen in love with you!"
The corner of Rejoyla’s mouth twitched. Logically speaking, she should be happy because such a handsome confessed his love to her when they first met. Even if she didn't like him, her vanity wouldn't make her dislike him. She couldn't explain why, but something about Elvis made her suspicious Such intuition made Rejoyla doubt whether Elvis had any bad intentions. Moreover, Rejoyla knew in her heart that she was not a very beautiful woman. She was lucky to be with Jason because of her pretty face. Why did Elvis fall in love with her at first sight?
Rejoyla decided to trust her intuition. She tried to pull her hands away. Elvis's grip was strong though he looked elegant. Rejoyla used all her strength, but there was nothing she could do.
"Let go!" “Let go of her!"
Rejoyla turned her head and saw the man who spoke stare at her with a pair of cold and dark eyes. Rejoyla shrank her neck. No, why should she feel guilty? She was forced to hold Elvis's hand. So she straightened her back again and glared at Jason.

O.,
After a moment, Elvis chuckled softly. His voice was still as gentle as the spring breeze. "Jason, this time you will definitely lose to me!"
Lin was thrown into a Land Rover by Jason. She frowned and stared at her wrist which was red and painful from his strong grip. She rubbed her wrist and cautiously observed Jason who was driving. Well, he pursed his lips and looked mad. But she had told him about the blind date, hadn't she? So. why was he so angry?
"I said I was going on a blind date. Why are you so mad?" She had already explained it to him. This wasn't considered "cheating". right? What was Jason's problem with her?
"Is Elvis your blind date?" "Yeah." Jason's eyebrows furrowed slightly. He didn't expect his grandfather to introduce Elvis to Rejoyla. Was this intentional?
Jason turned his head to stare at Rejoyla, and his hand slightly lifted. He slammed on the brakes and stopped on the side of the road. Then he looked at Rejoyla's appearance again, and the look in his eyes was hard to read.
Rejoyla felt uncomfortable under Jason’s gaze. Suddenly, she remembered that her style was similar to Louisa's. Her face immediately darkened. "What are you looking at? Open the car door. I want to get off!"
"Where are you going?" Jason was unusually easygoing and wasn't angry with Rejoyla's attitude, but this made Rejoyla even more depressed. "I'm going to see a psychologist. I was kidnapped yesterday and I'm extremely afraid. Mr. Nelson introduced me to a psychologist.” Suppressing the anger in her heart, Rejoyla didn't want to argue with Jason and told him the truth.
"A psychologist?" Jason's tone was a bit strange. "Which clinic and where is it?"
"It's in the Sky Building not far behind us. I forgot the name, but Mr. Nelson said it's on the top floor. You can drop me off, and I'll walk there."
"Ha-ha.” Jason sneered and pinched Rejoyla’s chin with his fingertips. His tone was icy. "Do you have a crush on Elvis? You let him touch your hand and even go to his clinic. Aren't you afraid that he will hypnotize you and have sex with you in the clinic?”
Rejoyla's face turned red with anger. "Don't talk so rudely. Oh, wait a minute, who runs that clinic?" It turned out to be Elvis, that b*stard! Rejoyla didn't know what to say. What bad luck!
"Phew." Rejoyla breathed a sigh of relief and smiled flatteringly at Jason. "Thanks for reminding me. Elvis is actually a psychologist. But, thinking about his appearance and voice, I feel that he's actually quite suitable for the job!"
"Do you think highly of him?" Jason's gaze was dangerous.
Rejoyla's chin was sore from being pinched. She stepped back and got rid of Jason's hand. “I don't really know him. Why should I judge him? Open the door. I want to get off. Hey. stop the car!"
Rejoyla watched as Jason stepped on the gas pedal and the car speedily drove on the road, overtaking the other cars in front of them. She was scared but didn't want to bother Jason, for fear that her words would distract him. She didn’t understand what was wrong with him and looked at him with suspicion
It was a scary ride. but they finally stopped. Rejoyla collapsed on the chair and breathed heavily. She felt like she had survived a disaster. She was too angry to even scald Jason. She could only express her anger with her eyes. They were in a crowded city! Did Jason want to die?
Jason unbuckled Rejoyla's seat belt and bent down to carry her out of the car. Rejoyla finally realized that they were at the villa they used to live in. She looked at Jason, confused. “Why do you bring me here? I haven't even had lunch yet. Are you going to cook for me?"
Rejoyla would never cook. She only had basic cooking skills like frying ggs and teasting bread. If she had to cook a-broper meal, it would bea disastet.But Rejoyla didn't expect Jasonto cook for her, either. He had nevér cooked before. She just wanted to remind him thatshe hadn't eaten yet. Could hé order takeout for her?

Jason looked down at Rejoyla and thought for a moment. "The delivery will take at least two hours to arrive. Let's make love once, but the time is tight. Hurry up!"
Jason was a lech. Rejoyla was stunned for a while before she realized what he meant and immediately refused. She struggled in Jason's arms!
