Her Secret Mate novel Chapter 29

Fiona felt puzzled too. Everyone knew that there was a double meaning in his words, but she didn't know it was actually.

She was confused and looked at him with her head tilted.

To cover up her embarrassment, Rita had to leave early. She said apologetically, "Sorry, Jeremy. I have some work to do. You know, we are here for an internship..."

"Today the cast has a holiday and no one works."

Jeremy meant that she found nothing on the shooting place and there was no excuse for her to run away like that.

The next second Rita was aware of something. With a nervous look on her face, she took a few deep breaths and sat down again. She took the cup with water in it on the table and passed it to her lips numbly. Her hand trembled, and the water flew to her clothes, which made her look awful.

Jeremy snorted, "Don't be nervous. I won't do anything to you."

At least he was a gentleman in front of women, especially in front of the woman he liked.

Rita was tormented so much that she wanted to know what on earth Jeremy was going to say.

But with the presence of Fiona, she didn't want to be so embarrassed in front of Jeremy.

"Did you ask the guy who knocked at Fiona's door that night?"

He seemed to know it now...

Rita was astonished and her face became as pale as a white paper.

She thought she had bought the hooligan and he would never tell anyone else. But why did he know that? That was impossible. She shook her head and denied it guiltily.

"Do you want to say that I've wronged you?"

When the dinner was served, Jeremy slowly filled a bowl of soup for Fiona. Different from his expressionless face when he talked with Rita, he gently said to Fiona, "Eat more, you seem to be thinner."

After drinking some soup, Fiona put down the spoon.

"Shall I help you eat?" Jeremy asked.

Being helpless, Fiona replied, "I'll drink it later, okay? You are caring about me too much."

She was not calm in her mind. After thinking carefully, she finally understood what Jeremy meant. It turned out that the hooligan was hired by Rita.

She didn't expect Rita to be so cruel. Since Rita liked Jeremy, she must get her mad.

Fiona scooped out a spoonful of soup and put it on Jeremy lips. She pouted reluctantly and said, "it's a little hot."

Of course, Jeremy knew what she wanted to do. She was so cute that he smiled and had to blow into it for her. "Well, you can drink it now."

"Thank you, honey."

"You're welcome. It's what I should do."

The flirting between them irritated Rita.

Rita could not understand why Jeremy loved Fiona so much. How could she be not as good as Fiona? She was supposed to be the center of other's attention, but after the appearance of Fiona, everything changed.

It was not easy for her to have a crush on Jeremy. Almost everyone among the wealthy families knew that. Even the Fu family was happy to see that.

However, Fiona who appeared from nowhere had taken away everything from her. What made her unbearable was to see that Jeremy who had always been cold to everyone, became so lovely and warm in front of Fiona. Rita had never dreamed of that in her life.

Rita turned her head away, not looking at them.

But Fiona did nothing but to ask her, "Miss Rita, it seems that you don't like me."

Even though she hated Fiona so much and wanted to kill her thousands of times, she tried to hide her feeling.

She kept a well-educated manner and calmly replied: "No."

"Okay. Then tell me why you are angry with me. You not only spoke ill of me behind my back, but also asked some hooligan to rape me!" Fiona was extremely angry. As long as she thought that she had been so close to death, she could not forgive Rita.
