His Dangerous Love novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56 Was There Any Dirty Little Secrets

Elianna's heart was in turmoil. She used Jefferson to make a deal with Brett without his consent and was caught by Jefferson himself.

Elianna lamented how unlucky she was.

If Jefferson did not cooperate and exposed her lies, all her previous efforts would be for nothing.

Being watched anxiously by Elianna, Jefferson just glanced at the leftovers on the table. He wore a half-smile as he looked back at her.

"It turned out that you went out to dinner with another man. Haven't you filled your stomach yet?"

Though it sounded a bit odd, Elianna secretly breathed a sigh of relief that Jefferson didn't contradict her.

She held Jefferson's arm more tightly, and a smile curled the corners of her mouth. "I can have dinner with you."

Seeing that Jefferson and Elianna were sticking together, Brett was terrified. Brett was afraid that Jefferson would get him wrong, so he hurriedly explained.

"I, I came here to apologize to Ms. Gentry. Mr. Larsen and Ms. Gentry, since you have some business to attend to, I'm leaving now."

With that, Brett didn't dare to wait for Jefferson to reply and fled away.

When Elianna, who had been on edge, attempted to deceive Brett, she was totally relieved and unconsciously let go of Jefferson's arm.

Jefferson's arm, which her hands had warmed, suddenly began to cool as she released her grip.

A slight smile broke on his lips as he thought, "She didn't disguise that very well."

Cupping her face, Jefferson turned Elianna over. "You didn't bother pretending after you used up me?"

Elianna's face was distorted by his grip. She scowled in pain and turned.

Elianna was wondering how to explain to Jefferson when she suddenly saw Darren standing to the side.

Elianna's relationship with Jefferson was shady, so she instinctively pushed Jefferson away and took a few quick steps away when she saw any other members of the Larsen family.

She dodged so quickly that Jefferson was caught off guard, his hand pausing in mid-air.

Darren snorted out a laugh.

Darren was overjoyed. "You've held Jeff for so long. Isn't it too late for you to be discreet about your love affairs now?"

Listening to Darren's teasing tone, Elianna remembered that he knew about her affair with Jefferson.

Thanks to Darren, Elianna managed to get rid of Neil last time.

Elianna reacted and then awkwardly looked over at Jefferson, who was a few steps away.
