A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 216

Of course, Jean knew what Tina meant, but she didn't say anything more. Arguing was not the solution.

After dinner, Jean was about to leave. She said goodbye to Sandra, "Grandma, have a good rest at home. I have to go now. I have something to deal with in the company."

"Why are you in such a hurry? Don't you want to sit a little longer? " Sandra frowned slightly.

"No, thanks." Jean smiled and said to Sandra.

"Terence." Hearing this, Sandra stopped Terence and said to Terence, "Jean is leaving now. Please send her home for me."

"Okay." Terence nodded slightly, "Grandma, I have to go on a long trip these days It will take about a week. I'll come to see you when I come back. "

"Okay, okay." Satisfied, Sandra patted the back of Terence's hand and said to Terence, "Work is the most important Don't come to see me in such a hurry. I'm fine. "

Only then did Terence come out and get on the car with Jean. The two spoke in unison.

"What did you mean just now?"

"Are you going to travel far away?"

Terence was stunned for a while, smiled and said, "Yes, I happen to go out to discuss a project, which may take a week."

"Then Are you going alone? " Jean frowned, "How about I go with you?"

"No, thanks." Terence shook his head slightly and said to Jean, "I can handle it by myself. Besides, if I go to talk about work, you can't help me even if you go there."

"But at least I can..." Thinking of this, Jean frowned slightly. It was the best way to strengthen their relationship to go out together. Of course she wouldn't miss such a chance, so she kept persuading Terence.

But obviously, Terence didn't understand what was on Jean's mind. He looked at Jean and said, "No, thank you. I've already booked the air ticket. I'll handle it myself. Don't worry."

Terence smiled, "We are just pretending to be a couple, not really. You don't have to be so involved in the play."

As soon as Terence finished his words, Jean's face turned paler.

Terence thought it was fake, but Jean knew in her heart that she really treated Terence as her fiancé.

She looked at Terence awkwardly and was choked by Terence's words. She smiled bitterly and said to Terence, "Well, be careful. Call me if anything happens."

"I will." Terence said indifferently, "By the way, when I was at home just now, I wanted to explain the matter between us two clearly to grandma. I couldn't let her misunderstand me like this all the time, but why did you stop me?"

"Because..." Jean's selfish motive was obvious, but when Terence suddenly asked about it, she couldn't tell the truth. She just smiled and said, "Since it's a play, of course we have to play it all."

"As you know, your mother has always liked Julia. If you just told her the truth, she would definitely tell Julia. In that case, our efforts will be in vain." Jean smiled and continued, "Besides..."

"What are you talking about?"
