Chapter 99
Janet rubbed her eyes while she appeared in pain. “I think my eyelashes fell inside my eye.”
“Boss, stop rubbing your eye. I’ll blow it away for you.”
Therefore, she stuck her face out to allow Dexter to blow against her eye.
At that moment, the temperature in the car dropped to a dangerous icy level.
Sean was so shocked that he was rendered motionless. It turns out that Miss Jackson has a boyfriend! It seems like her boyfriend is one of the four guys. H-How could they be kissing right now?
Nevertheless, he did not have the courage to turn to check on Mason. He did not even need to imagine to know that Mason had a frightening expression on his face.
True to Sean’s imagination, Mason’s almond-shaped eyes now gleamed coldly and his thin lips were pressed into a severe line—a clear indication that Mason was furious.
His dark and narrow eyes glued on Janet’s back view.
He clenched his fists so tightly that the veins on his arms were visibly throbbing.
He instructed Sean intimidatingly with a moody tone, “Park right here.”
Sean was puzzled. Aren’t we picking Miss Janet up?
On the other side of the street, Dexter lowered his head while asking Janet, “Boss, do you feel better now?”
Janet squinted while nodding. “I feel much better. Well, I better get going! Remember to train well when you’re back home.”
The Beasts promised her simultaneously. “We know!”
She approached the side of the road. Just when she was about to phone Mason, she received a text message.
Mason: ‘I have something to attend to suddenly, so I can’t pick you up. You should be careful.’
Janet: ‘…’
She was at a loss for words. What is wrong with this man tonight? He’s been pestering me for the whole day, but he decides not to come pick up with just a message. Forget it; it’s fine even if he isn’t dropping by.
She returned to the Jackson residence while feeling a little lost.
Upon arriving home, Janet threw herself onto the bed. Suddenly, there was a swooshing sound, so she woke with a start.
She prepared herself to attack, but she caught sight of Mason when she turned.
However, she noticed that the man’s eyes no longer looked pretty and charming like before; instead, they looked icy-cold. She regarded him in confusion while asking indifferently, “What’s up with you?”
Mason pursed his lips together, pulling her into his arms without uttering a word.
Janet was confused by his actions. Her keen sense of smell immediately picked up the alcoholic stench emitting from his body. Did he drink alcohol today? “Let me go; what on earth…”
Nevertheless, before she could complete her sentence, he sealed her ruby-red lips with his.
Damn it!
Her eyes shot open in surprise as she stood rooted to the spot without knowing how to fight back.
She would never expect someone to kiss her by force, not even in her wildest dreams.
However, no matter how hard she struggled, the man didn’t seem to plan to release her.
With that, Janet squinted and viciously bit Mason’s lips before roughly shoving him away.
Upon the sudden impact, Mason was thrown back against the wall and his broad shoulders made an audible dull thud against the wall.
She asked in anger and embarrassment, “What are you doing?”
The man’s eyes were bloodshot and he had a dejected look. “Janet, I can’t accept it.” His husky voice reverberated against her ears. “I saw it; I can’t accept another man touching you.”
She frowned slightly. In the beginning, she didn’t quite catch what he meant. Nevertheless, she realized with a start after a moment. No wonder there’s such a huge difference in his attitude in less than half an hour. It’s possible that he saw Dexter blowing against my eye at the entrance of the bar. So, did he misunderstand the situation?
“Is there anything else?” She approached him and stood in front of him while tugging at his sleeve.
However, Mason did not respond to her because he knew that his feelings for her were unrequited. The girl has never mentioned that she fancies me nor has she expressed any desire to be with me. What gives me the right to say those things? However, I just can’t endure to witness Janet being intimate with another man. The anger is burning and consuming me alive—and it’s almost destroying me.
Janet burst out in laughter while being amused. I’m giving him a way out; why isn’t he taking it? He looks almost like a new bride feeling sorry for herself and being pitiful.
She calmly explained in response to his silence, “He is my younger brother.” She had to stifle a chuckle while saying that.
Upon hearing her explanation, his eyes suddenly brightened before sparkling in excitement.
