I Fell for the Man Who Ruined Me, Then He Forgot He Ever Loved Me Back novel Chapter 219

After the conversation died down.

The faint sound of their breathing was slowly overtaken by the rhythmic, sharp tapping of keys.

The light casting from the laptop screen shifted constantly, reflecting off the man's expressionless face.

Sienna had been sitting on the edge of the bed when she explained to her friend that she was gathering chicken eggs. When she finished explaining and lifted her eyes, her gaze met the sharp, cleanly defined lines of his profile.

Remembering the icy chill in Jorrod's eyes earlier, she cleared her throat to confirm, "Um, so that was all a misunderstanding earlier. Mr. Vaughn, you won't go out of your way to cause trouble for my friend again, right?"

Jorrod didn't look back, his jawline taut. "I'm not that bored."

"So that's a no, right, Mr. Vaughn?" Sienna pressed for a solid answer.

"As long as he doesn't cross me, I won't waste my time."

*Beep.*

The sound of a program finishing.

Jorrod finally turned his head, his eyes narrowing slightly.

He found the whole situation utterly ridiculous. "You're recording this too?"

Not only was she recording it, she was doing it secretly. Feeling a bit guilty, Sienna quickly saved the file. "Force of habit..."

Jorrod shot her a look and remarked lightly, "It truly lives up to a friendship built since middle school. So close, you're constantly thinking of him."

Sienna hummed in agreement. "We lived in the same neighborhood. We were so close growing up, we practically shared the same pants. Over time, it just became a family-like bond, kind of like how you and Silas are."

She made the comparison casually.

Jorrod withdrew his gaze.

Staring at the screen, he let out a cold laugh. "I wouldn't know. Silas and I have our own pants. We don't need to squeeze into the same pair like you two."

"..."

It was just a metaphor! Who literally squeezes into the same pair of pants?
