My Love My Hatred (Jennie and Lance) novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39 My House
I blushed at the thought and internally scolded myself for having this kind of thoughts.
“What else do you know how to prepare?” he asked.
“A little bit of everything.” I answered shortly.
“Then get a few crabs. When mother was still alive, she always made crabs for me and Leo.”
This was the first time Lance mention his mother to me, in a good way.
Leo’s name made my heart skipped a beat. I know Leo loves crab, so naturally I tried to learn how to prepare crabs too last time. I learned everything that Leo loves.
My mom got into a relationship with their father even right before their mother died, so of course Lance would blame my mom for their mom’s death.
Perhaps, I should suffer for this. It’s only natural for me to suffer for my mom’s actions.
Lance wanted crabs, so we took 4 big crabs.
We took a few more different vegetables and went to the counter for bill. Lance suddenly asked me what I like to eat and told me to go get it too. I told him I’m not a picky eater, so I’m okay with the food we just chose.
The reason why I’m not a picky eater is because I was sent to stay at the school’s hostel since middle school, I knew being a picky eater would naturally lead to more expensive meals, so ever since that time, I try to eat everything that’s given to me.
Lance stared at me with disbelief: “What century are you living in? I can’t believe there’s still people out there who isn’t picky with food. I thought 90s kids like you are all very picky eater……”
Seems like people have very huge opinions on the 90s kids……
“Picky eaters are not according to age, only the rich pick what they eat, poor people eat what they have.” I rolled my eyes.
He burst out laughing: “Don’t bullshit,I know you don’t like fish, pork ribs and beef, right?” he looked at me with confidence in his eyes.
He must have noticed this when we ate at the same table, that was because I knew he would judge me or insult me. He would not have eaten the food that I took.
I smiled and said: “I only like rice.”
It’s our turn to pay, so our conversation regarding picky eater stopped just like that.
I rushed forward to pay, Lance didn’t have any cash with him. What he had in his wallet were all kinds of black cards. Of course the supermarket would allow us to use credit cards, but I was afraid of what people might think or look at us if he took out his black cards. I stopped him before he could do anything and smiled at him. “We’ve known each other for 20 years, and have been eating and using Mason’s money, why not let me pay for this?”
Lance stared at me in disbelief, he must think I’ve gone mad.
Under his disbelieving eyes, I took out my cash and paid for the grocery. Lance helped me carry some stuff and we exited the supermarket.
I stared at him with a weird look. “Why are you staring at me like that again?”
I chuckled softly. “I just felt so unbelievable.”
“Why?” he asked.
“Because this is the first time you’re being a gentleman towards me.” I answered.
His face immediately turned dark after what I said. What the hell? How can he switch his mood so fast?
Jennie Gomez, I’m being nice to you, don’t try anything.”
I nodded my head immediately. “Alright, sir, you’re nice to me so I must be grateful.”
I called a cab and we entered the cab after 2 minutes of waiting. At first I thought we would be heading to his mansion in the Pavilion Residence, instead he told the cab to head to my place.
I wanted to refuse, that’s my little safe haven, I don’t want him to ruin it. Plus there are a lot of me and Leo’s memories inside, if he sees it, he would definitely destroy it!
“My house is very dirty, next time, alright?” I asked nicely.
Lance furrowed his brows and said: “Why are you acting like a man is hiding at your place?”
I sighed and looked out the window. Fine. Seems like there’s no way I can stop this man.
I think about Leo and sighed once again. Fine, he’s someone else’s husband now, I should move on and not hold on anymore.
Reaching my place, Lance followed behind me, waiting for me to unlock my door.

Chapter 39 My House
The condo I rented has 2 rooms. Leo’s stuff is locked inside a small room.
Lance entered my house casually and put down all the bags of groceries. He looked around my small condo, I could feel the judgment in his eyes. He’s used to big mansions and luxurious life, of course he wouldn’t like my place.
“Have a seat, I’m going to cook.”
I started preparing the dishes. I don’t feel like cooking, all I wanted to do was to lie in bed and rest.
I was cleaning up the crab when Lance burst into the kitchen with cold eyes and said: “Man came over!”
He wasn’t asking me, he was stating it.
I lifted my eyes and looked at him. I was lazy to explain. “Many men came over, what are you trying to say?”
No matter who came, Lance Mason has no right to care about it.
“Did Leo come?” he asked.
I wasn’t surprised. Of course he would ask me this question.
I looked at him straight in the eyes and said: “Yes, he used to stay here during his university breaks.”
“hahaha…. no wonder.“ Lance laughed coldly. Then he added: “No wonder he didn’t come home, he came to your place instead.”
Lance suddenly approached me and came behind me. He hugged me from behind and lowered down his head. He put his head in my neck and sniffed. “Let me smell how seductive you are!”
