Chapter 78
Jalen withdrew his gaze and didn’t answer this question instantly.
“Allie, what do you think is love?” Jalen suddenly asked Alisha a question that seemed irrelevant.
Alisha was shocked. She looked over at Jalen in disbelief. “You… Do you love her?”
“I don’t know.” Jalen shook his head. He really didn’t know.
“At first, I was just curious about her, but later on, I couldn’t tell why.”
Jalen held a cup of coffee in his hand and spoke slowly, but every word he said was like a knife that stabbed Alisha’s heart.
After a long pause, Alisha finally came back to her senses. She suppressed her uneasiness and said, “You told me before that you don’t believe in love. You think that love is fake.”
“Yes.” Jalen didn’t refute.
If he had not met Elaina, he wouldn’t have believed that his heart, which had been silent for many years, would beat so violently again.
“Maybe it is just your illusion, Jalen.”
Alisha met Jalen’s gaze and said, “You think that you are in love with her, but maybe you just get curious about her. That’s why you have an interest in her.”
“You are right.” Jalen nodded and approved what she said.
Seeing this, Alisha breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Jalen didn’t seem to fall for Elaina yet.
But she couldn’t let things continue to be like this.
Otherwise, Jalen would fall in love with Elaina sooner or later. At that time, Alisha would really have no chance at all.
Half an hour later, Marcus arrived at the restaurant. When he saw Jalen, he subconsciously hid behind Alisha. He was a little afraid of Jalen.
Jalen just glanced at him coldly and didn’t say a word.
