Jenny packs up the things she just gets, and thanks him. Then she takes the bag and get ready to leave.
"There is no need to apologize. If you really feel guilty for me, please send the contact information of the manager of Light Winery to my mailbox. I will ask in person. Then we're quits."
"Jenny." Frankie stands up and grabs Jenny's wrist. "Calm down. I know you must feel uncomfortable when you just learn about this. But it cannot be figured out in few days. And if you come to see someone in such a risky way, what do you think you can get? "
Jenny's cold eyes glance over the hand that grabs her. Frankie freezes for a moment and slowly let it go. He takes his hand back.
"I'll research it for you. Can you give me a chance to make up for you?"
He has never kept such a low profile. Even until now, he has no way to determine whether he really does not love Jenny. No matter he loves or not, he originally thinks that he will feel free after breaking up with her. But after really breaking up, he is full of guilt when he is dreaming at midnight.
He can't sleep all night, thinking of the promise he had given to Jenny.
That's the woman who he promises to take care of her life. Why does he make things like this now?
"I know you don't want my help. But this is not a help. It's my atonement. Is it possible?"
Jenny is not a ruthless person. Actually she has soft heart.
"If you hold Jessica's hand to see me and tell me straightly that you fall in love with others, I won't think I is blind. I can't guarantee that I will let you go. At least, I won’t think you are a hypocrite. Moreover I was fooled by you in that few days. "
The resentment in her tone is more distressing than accusing.
No one knows how she lives during the time when she just learns that she is being cheated. Negative news is around her, and she has no friend. The company wants to cancel the contract with her. She is about to face a large amount of liquidated damages. The childhood sweetheart, the man who she thinks that is her life-mate, is flirting to other women.
How great humiliation is it?
"Sorry, Jenny."
It is really disgusting after hearing the words like that.
Jenny put the documents that hasn't been received in the bag on the table, "Please help me for my dad's business. As for the business that you're sorry for me, I will help you burn more paper money and tell him not to bother at night. "
Frankie is stunned. When he looks up, Jenny has passed by without looking back, striding toward the door with a handsome and determined back.
He opens his mouth to say something, but in the end only a long sigh remains.
The Black Forest cake on the table hasn’t been eaten. The juice hasn’t been enjoyed. And the documents are left. Jenny gives him the opportunity to atone. It seems to be a step closer to being forgiven by her, but the feeling of losing something is more obvious. .
Outside the Left Bank Cafe, the man sees through the huge glass window. He stares at the secluded corner for a long time, and a pair of cold eyes shows anger unpleasantly.
Jenny has just left the cafe and considers something. She walks with her head bowed and without looking at the front. Suddenly a car parks in front of her. She subconsciously wants to go around, not expecting that a familiar voice falls in her ears.
"If you don't look at the road and rampage, you won't be allowed to go out alone."
She freezes for a moment, thinking that she has auditory hallucinations. So she suddenly raises her head. The indifferent and delicate face appears after the window is slowly rolling down. And the blade-like eyebrows twists slightly. He seems a little unpleasant.
"Mr. Luke ... why are you here?"
Jenny hesitates for a moment and looks up at the Emerald Pictures Building which is not far away. "Isn’t it so coincident that you just come out of the company?"
"Mrs. Luke, can you get in the car? There are many people here." Chen opens the door on the other side very flatteringly, asking her to get in.
The nice smell of citrus freshener is exuded in the business car. The temperature is just nice. Jenny takes off her coat and looks at the man aside with the corner of her eyes secretly.
"If there is nothing wrong, I can go back by myself. Mr. Lu does not have to worry about me."
