Fled With CEO's Twin Babies novel (Mia and Joe) novel Chapter 987

"People who know too much often come to no good end." Mandy leaned closer to Jack. Her words were like a threat. "Aren't you afraid of getting involved?"

Years of risking life had refined Mandy's temperament, making her resemble a beautiful snake ready to strike at any moment. The living embodiment of danger that deeply attracted Jack.

He showed no fear, instead reaching out and pulling Mandy closer by wrapping his arm around her waist.

The warmth of their bodies, even through their thin clothes, was clearly felt by each other. Jack looked directly at Mandy and said, "Then I wouldn't have taken you home."

Mandy stared at Jack. Over the years, he had shed his innocence and become a complete social elite. Now, he looked aggressive.

Mandy didn't flinch. She reached out and hooked her hand around Jack's neck, smiling lightly. "So, you're pretty amazing, huh?"

Jack remembered the terrifying wound on her waist and sighed softly as he carried her to the bedroom's bed. "You can keep it a secret if you don't want to talk about it. Rest well these days. No one will be able to find you."

Mandy didn't expect him to give up easily. He even turned and headed to the kitchen to start cooking.

She gazed at Jack's back, suddenly feeling a strange sensation in her heart.

Would someone take a stranger home at risk just because of one night?

Jack was efficient. He prepared two dishes and a coffee in just half an hour. He even found a bedside table from somewhere and placed the dishes on the table.

"I didn't expect you to cook so skillfully." Mandy smiled. Her pale complexion lost its radiance and gained a desire to be cared for.

Jack didn't reply. After preparing the cutlery for Mandy, he looked at her and asked, "Any help?"

He seemed serious. Mandy guessed that if she nodded, he would actually feed her.

"No, thanks." Mandy lowered her gaze and took a sip.
