Chapter 54 Get Married
I saw the rapid change of expression on Leo’s face. He must not have expected me to say that I do not
want to be with him. I, Jennie Gomez, who loved him so much, said no to him.
“Jennie, I...... I know it is my fault, can you forgive me?”
His eyes were filled with anticipation, it made me distress and heartbroken, but I know I have to be
cruel, to him and to myself, to avoid a triangular situation.
“No, you hurt me, and you can‘t just come asking for my forgiveness like that!”
This must be the cruelest thing I have ever said to him. If it was last time, I wouldn’t say such things to
him, to hurt him.
Leo looked at me, heartbroken. He wanted to caress my face a few times, but he didn’t, he stared at
me and said: “Then what do you want me to do, to have your forgiveness?”
“Nothing, just stay away from me, I already have a boyfriend. Although you and I are siblings, but we
are not blood related, if we get too close, my boyfriend would get angry.”
I lied straight to his face, but I didn‘t dare look at him, because he would know that I‘m lying if he saw
my eyes.
Leo stood up and stepped back in disappointment. He laughed bitterly and said: “Wow, I didn‘t expect
you to have a boyfriend already. Good...... you‘re not young anymore, it‘s time to date. Brother will
never bother you anymore.”
My tears kept running down like the waterfall. From the corner of my eyes, I saw Leo. He must be
heartbroken and hurt by me. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
It’s better sooner than later.….. this hurt is inevitable, I shouldn‘t waste his time, so it‘s best for me to
hurt him now than later...…
During dinner, Leo didn‘t turn up while Lance‘s face was as dark as the night sky. My head was held
low, looking at my own plate, while mom kept serving Uncle Mason.
Mrs Mason sat beside Lance and held his hands: “After the festive season, you’re going to turn 32
soon. Our family still hasn‘t got a grandson, I already spoke to Tiffany Abel‘s mother. We plan for your
wedding to be in June, are you fine with it?”
Tiffany Abel, I know this name. She is Lance‘s fiancé, 2 years older than me. She’s marrying Lance
once she finishes her PhD studies. What‘s the point in studying PhD when all she’s going to do after
she gets married is to stay at home and take care of kids?
I really don‘t understand these upper–class people.
Lance didn’t seem to be in a good mood and he looked annoyed: “Let’s talk about this next time, the
project is the most important thing to me, if I haven’t even started it. how can i even marry and have
kids? Grandma, don’t chase me on this.”
Strange enough, Lance glanced at me when he said that. I immediately looked down
Then I heard Mrs Mason complain. “Something so stupid happened to your brother, and you‘re still
here not getting ready to get married. Then I will not have a chance to meet my own great-grandson
before I die!”
Lance seemed to be triggered and raised his voice: “The work and businesses in company is already
giving me a headache! Grandma, can you stop?”
In my impression, Lance was always respectful towards his grandmother, he never spoke to her like
that
Because he raised his voice at her, she gave him a pitiful look.
Lance realized his own behavior too and immediately apologized to his grandma.
She looked at her baby grandson and said; “Okay, I won‘t force you, but at least invite her over for
dinner, or else the Abel Family would think that we don‘t prioritize her daughter.”
Lance didn‘t want to reject his grandma again, so he nodded and agreed.
The businesses and companies of the Mason‘s Family are all under Lance‘s control, so Leo could do
what he likes.
I‘ve never seen Tiffany Abel, but it‘s not because they never came over. Tiffany comes to the mansion a
lot, it was me who was always not around.
After dinner, I cleaned up myself and went to bed. Then my phone buzzed. Lance sent me a message
to go out.
Tignored his message and laid in bed.
I hadn‘t even put down my phone and he already called me. I pretended to be asleep and put my
phone in silent mode.
After a minute, my door was pushed opened. I knew very well it was Lance Mason, I could smell him
from my bed. My heart started to beat faster.
He came closer and closer to my bed, I shut my eyes close tightly, knowing that I‘m doomed.
I tried to calm myself down and pretended to be sound asleep. Lance sat on my bed and switched on my
table lamp. My heart skipped a beat.
Lance grabbed my chin and said: “Your eyes are moving, stop pretending.” He said.
I opened my eyes and faked an act, like I just woke up. I gave him a grin and asked: “Brother, why
aren’t you sleeping?”
Lance returned my grin with a dark smile and touched my lips. “Leo talked to me today. He said he
likes you and wants to be with you. He came to me to ask for my permission. Let’s see, what do you
think? Do you want to be with him too?”
