A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 70

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."
