SWNOVELS Chapter 445
Chapter 445 Die Because of You
This person sounded too straight. Even Jaylon felt he went too far.
Jaylon's face was cold as he said to the man, "Get out."
The man did not notice that Jaylon was angry, and still smiled, "What? You don't have to pretend when faced with me. "You should know how others judged her when she was with you before.
"Your people all said that she was a cheap one. And after you abandoned her, they could buy her and play with her..."
Before the man finished speaking, he received a heavy punch in his face.
Jaylon was once a big shot in the underworld. He experienced many real battles.
With this punch, the man tasted blood in his mouth.
"Fuck, Jaylon, you..."
The man looked up angrily and met Jaylon's dark and dangerous eyes. He instantly shut his mouth.
Jaylon gritted his teeth and repeated word by word, "Get out!"
The man was intimidated by Jaylon's invisible but powerful vibe, and he hurriedly opened the door and ran out. He left in a hurry and shut the door close with great strength. When the door closed, there was a deafening sound.
The room returned to silence.
Jaylon stood at the door for quite a while before turning around to look at Reina.
Reina sat quietly on the chair, lowering her head without crying or making a fuss. She just looked at her black screen. Jaylon walked over and opened his mouth. After a long time, he finally said, "He's always like this, joking around. "With me here, no one dares to touch you."
"Do you think he's just joking? I've heard everything he said with my own
ears." Reina lowered her head, her voice trembling slightly.
"They said that I'm the lowliest prostitute. And with only several hundred dollars, they can sleep with me for one night.
"They said that though I look aloof and pretty, I was only a bitch who served a man in bed at night."
Jaylon used to run business in both the underworld and the normal business world. In this case, his men included normal employees and
gangsters. Many of them were evil guys.
Reina had been with him for a long time and had worked in his company. In addition, he never covered up their relationship. Many people in the company knew about his relationship with Reina. He had always been reckless and only cared about his mood.
Now he knew that she had suffered so much in places he did not know.
Jaylon said in a hoarse voice, "You never told me before."
"I told you before." Reina raised her head. She looked at the ceiling with misty eyes, feeling that the ceiling was shaking. "I told you many times, but you never cared about this."
When she was with him before, she had told him how the people under him had talked about her.
Even now, she still remembered how he had answered back then.
"Don't take it to heart. Forget about that."
Jaylon might not remember these trivial things, but she remembered them clearly.
The words that had hurt her were deeply embedded in her heart, leaving deep wounds.
Over the years, the wounds no longer bled and scars appeared. But they never recovered. Her heart was seriously wounded.
Jaylon really did not care about Reina in the past. She had talked to him a lot, but he only remembered the words she often said in bed.
After all, his relationship with her had stopped there.
He was busy with work and never wasted his time on unimportant people.
Now that the relationship between the two had changed, she occupied the most important place in his heart, but he did not know how to respond to her memories of the past.
After a long time, he finally found his voice. "You don't have to care about what others think. I will never let those unpleasant words spread to you."
Reina suddenly smiled, and the tears that filled her eyes finally fell. "So what if others don't say it? The truth is there. Even if nobody says anything to me, I can realize it myself."
"And you think of me as such a woman too, right?
"As long as you give me some money, I can shamelessly stay by your side
and have sex with you.
"Jaylon, if one day I die, it must be because of you."
Hearing her words, Jaylon felt his heart tremble fiercely. He leaned over and
wiped her tears.
However, she cried so hard that no matter how he wiped her tears, the
sadness in her eyes was still there.
He said in a soft voice, "I know that you can't bear to die. Don't be angry.
"If you don't want to go to the banquet hall, then don't go. Be good and wait for me here.
"When the engagement ceremony is over, I will take you back. Tell me who was gossiping and I will help you pull out their tongues."
Reina's eyes were dim and unfocused. "Things have already happened.
What's the use of you punishing them now?
"And you are the one who should die, aren't you?"
Her tone was filled with hatred as she said this.
Jaylon hugged her and avoided her curse. His voice was hoarse as he said,
"It's useful. At least you feel better in your heart.
"In the past, I never paid attention to your emotions. Nothing like this will
happen again.
"I will definitely protect you well."
Reina pressed her cheek against his waist and whispered, "Do I still have a
future?"
"Yes." He hugged her tightly as if she would disappear completely if he loosened his grip. "If I say you have, you will have."
Reina closed her eyes and did not speak to him again.
He hugged her silently for a long time, and the door was knocked again.
"Mr. Malpas, time for you and Ms. Hornsby to show up."
"Got it," Jaylon replied. He let go of Reina and bent down to lift her face. "Be
good and wait for me. I'll be back soon."
Reina did not say a word. Jaylon's heart was in pain and his uneasiness
grew.
He forced himself to calm down and kissed her again. "I'm leaving."
Reina still did not respond. Jaylon was worried, but he could only leave.
The engagement ceremony was very smooth. Nadia did not cause any trouble. She held his arm and walked down the red carpet. They bowed to the parents of both sides. Finally, they were about to exchange engagement rings under everyone's blessings.
Jaylon took the ring from someone else. Nadia noticed that he was absent-
minded and teased him with a smile. "What, you miss her already after separating for such a short time?"
"Give me your hand." Jaylon pursed his thin lips and did not answer her.
"Tsk, you are so old and heartless." Nadia deliberately said in a teasing way. Then she continued, "Put the ring on me quickly. My boyfriend is waiting for
me at home."
Jaylon did not say a word. He knelt on one knee and slowly put the diamond ring on Nadia's finger.
After they exchanged the rings, the audience applauded loudly.
When everyone was sending wishes to the new couple, a staff member rushed in with a flustered expression and shouted anxiously, "Something's wrong! Someone jumped into the sea!"
Almost instantly, the originally lively banquet hall quieted down.
Jaylon first furrowed his brows, wanting to kick this guy who disturbed the
engagement ceremony out.
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something. He left Nadia to the side
and strode to the staff member and grabbed the guy's collar.
Jaylon felt his voice trembling. "Who jumped into the sea?"
