She thought, if she could love him when he needed someone's care the most, would the result be different?
"Get out!" Jasper cried out in pain.
He grabbed the clothes on the ground, put them on in a mess and rushed to the bathroom. He ran in a hurry, as if he was escaping.
"Ah... Woo-woo..." Maureen burst into tears sorrowfully.
Her sad voice echoed in the room.
Jasper came back, but he was always absent-minded while working. He got off work very early yesterday.
She followed him all the way, only to find that he went to the bar alone. He ordered a few bottles of wine and drank desperately. She walked over to accompany him. He was drunk, but he knew it was her.
She clearly heard him call Eden's name very affectionately.
When he saw her face, he shook off her hand with a disgusted face. She knew it was an opportunity.
In fact, she was well prepared. When she saw Jasper drunk, she really did not want to miss this chance.
Because she loved him crazily.
Eight years ago, Jasper was a bad-tempered young man. Although he achieved nothing, she liked him very much.
After eight years, he had become a mature and steady man. She had never seen him so wise, stable and eye-catching. He had become more charming.
When she met Jasper again, she became totally crazy. Since he hated her so much, it didn't matter if he hated her more. Moreover, he could remember her well in this way.
No matter how childish a person was, he could become mature if he loved somebody from afar. She had indeed become much maturer in the past four years.
No matter how careless she was, she could calm down and observe his life carefully.
She wanted to grow up in pain and change herself in hope.
Listening to the sound of running water in the bathroom, she was heartbroken. Her cold fingers trembled slightly, and her eyes were brimming with tears as she looked in the direction of the bathroom.
She did not know what to do. When she thought that her future might be hopeless, she was scared, but she wanted to try once again.
Just try again!
She wouldn't give up.
She got up and put on her clothes. Looking at the sheets and quilt on bed, she knew how crazy he was after being drugged last night.
When she woke up, her waist was sore and her back ached.
Although she felt uncomfortable all over, she did not regret it.
She cleaned up the bed and spread new sheets and quilt before she washed up and went to cook in the kitchen.
For him, she learned how to cook.
She was willing to do anything for him.
The time of life when she was eighteen or nineteen years old was crazy, and many people had the same experience as her. One couldn't become mature unless he had suffered from intense loneliness.
She had nothing to lose, so she made a last desperate effort. She wanted to try her best to win Jasper's heart.
She looked back at Jasper's bathroom again. The sound of running water was loud.
"Jasper, in this world, nothing is as wonderful as you. I did all those things just for you. I don't want to get anything but your love."
She tried to accept another man, but that man was not Jasper, so she couldn't really fall in love with him.
Jasper stayed in the bathroom for a very long time. After he came out, his blood was still burning with anger.
He scrubbed and washed himself with great strength, and his body was painful. Last night, he had sex for the first time, but he had no feelings at that time and he didn't remember what had happened. He felt that he was pathetic.
He thought Maureen had left. As soon as he raised his head, he saw her walking out of the kitchen with lunch in her hand.
"Jasper, are you busy today? Why didn't you answer my phone calls? I cooked dumplings, and I want you to come over and eat with us."
It was really Eden's voice.
The phone in Maureen's hand almost fell to the ground.
She had forgotten that Jasper liked the dumplings made by Eden the most.
Eden was good at cooking, and Jasper and Abigail both liked to eat the dishes cooked by her. They would have meals in Eden's house on weekends.
"This is me."
Eden was slightly stunned. It was Maureen.
But her voice...
"Eden, I'm with Jasper now."
Eden heard Maureen's words when she wondered why Maureen had Jasper's phone.
"Maureen, you..."
"I schemed against him and drugged him. You know that he hates me very much and he doesn't even want to see me. He can't forget you. So, I abandoned my dignity and did it recklessly in order to get him."
Eden's heart ached badly. Maureen drugged Jasper. She clenched her fist and took a bite of it hard.
She felt painful, so it was not a dream.
"Maureen, what you did will only make Jasper hate you more." Eden felt a little sad. It was not because of Maureen, but because of Jasper. He didn't love Maureen, so he would get hurt.
He didn't love Maureen, but he had to be responsible for her. She wanted Jasper to be happy, but happiness was not like that.
"I know." Maureen sighed, "Eden, promise me. Please don't appear in Jasper's life again. It's very painful for him to lose you. I want to warm him with my love, but the premise is that you can leave him."
