Jenkins was actually a good cook despite his cold impression.
Because Jenkins was treating Yvonne increasingly well, she had become a little more courageous, and she was no longer as reserved in his villa.
Jenkins' villa was very large. As Yvonne continued to look around, she arrived at a study.
The room was not locked, so Yvonne pushed the door open and went in.
This seemed to be the place where Jenkins usually worked at.
Just when Yvonne was about to leave, her gaze suddenly focused on something.
She had caught sight of a photo album.
Yvonne subconsciously thought that it must be his photo album.
She was suddenly a little curious.
She didn't know what a cold man like Jenkins would look like in photos.
As if she had been possessed, Yvonne opened the album.
However, she did not expect that the album did not contain photos of Jenkins.
Instead, they were photos of a woman.
The woman was very thin. She had an ovalshaped face and a sharp chin. Her eyes were incredibly big and beautiful, and it was as if they were speaking to her. They made her look incredibly innocent.
It was just a photo, but it was enough to make one's heart skip a beat.
Yvonne felt that the woman in the photo looked strangely familiar.
She thought for a long time and finally remembered.
Wasn't this woman the actress that had played Christine from that parody of Phantom of the Opera?
She was Sheirly, Jenkins' ex-lover!
Yvonne's breathing became increasingly rapid.
She flipped through the pages one by one. The album contained photos of her reading, of her smiling at the camera, of her having a meal. The photos made people feel protective of her.
Just like Penney had mentioned, she was a softie, an innocent young girl.
After flipping to the last page, Yvonne closed the album.
An indescribable feeling unexpectedly welled up in her heart.
Yvonne stood up, and was prepared to put the album back.
All of a sudden, she froze.
She didn't even notice that Jenkins had been standing before her at some point.
Right then, he gazed coldly at Yvonne, and his gaze was dark.
Yvonne had not seen such a dark look in Jenkins's eyes for a long time. She jumped in shock, and the album in her hand fell to the ground, making a thud as it did so.
"Who gave you the permission to look through my things?" His tone was cold.
Yvonne subconsciously took a step back.
"Mr. Quartley, I..."
Jenkins stepped forward, and pretty much yanked Yvonne's hair.
Her scalp felt numb.
She furrowed her eyebrows. "Mr. Quartley, please don't do this. You're hurting me."
She wanted to act cute like she usually did.
This time, however, it was to no avail.
Jenkins' lips almost brushed against Yvonne's ears. Yvonne felt as if an endless stream of cold air was blowing into her ear.
"Don't think that you can do whatever you want and forget who you are, just because I spoilt you for a few days," he said coldly.
Yvonne's breathing hitched.
All of a sudden, she felt that she had fallen into a trap.
She seemed to have forgotten her place...
Jenkins had only treated her well for a few days, and she'd already forgotten about the past.
She had almost forgotten about when Jenkins dragged her into the shower, and washed her lips over and over again.
She had almost forgotten that in Jenkins' heart, she, was just a toy to him.
In the evening, Natalie went to work as usual, but she was stopped at the entrance to the club.
