Chapter 986 What Happened
She weakly raised her hand and tugged on the T-shirt that didn’t fit her well,
with a smile.
Jack might never know that if he had dared to do anything detrimental to her
just now, the dagger on Mandy’s leg would have pierced his chest.
And now…
Mandy smelled the faint scent of lavender on the bed and closed her eyes
heavily.
The following day, after rising hungrily from bed, she found a glass of warm
milk and breakfast sitting on the kitchen island.
Enter title…
Next to it was a note left by Jack: [I went to work. I hope I won’t see an extra
hundred dollars at home when I come back.]
Looking down at the vigorous fonts on the notepaper, Mandy couldn’t help
laughing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe picked up the breakfast on the plate and took a bite. Unexpectedly, it
tasted surprisingly good.
On this day, Jack was rarely distracted while working.
He didn’t know whether Mandy would stay at his house after he went back or
if she would still leave without saying goodbye like last time.
Even Joe noticed something was wrong with him. He frowned and looked at
Jack. “What happened to you?”
Jack quickly apologized to Joe, “Mr. Smith, I’m sorry…”
Joe made a stop gesture and glanced around him, “I’ll give you half a day off
to adjust your condition.”
Jack shook his head. “I’m fine. I don’t need to rest.”
Joe didn’t think so. He said quietly, “You haven’t had a good rest during this
period. It would be good to take an extra half day off to adjust yourself.”
Listening to his words, Jack stopped refusing, thanked Joe and left the
company in a hurry.
Upon returning home, Jack hesitated a bit, holding the key with some
hesitation.
“What are you doing standing at the door?”
As he was hesitating, a female voice suddenly came from behind him, and
Jack turned around in surprise.
He saw Mandy holding a shopping bag in his hand, standing at the elevator
entrance, and raising his eyebrows to see him.
“How did you…” Jack looked at Mandy surprisingly.
Mandy lifted the shopping bag in her hand and shook it, “There are too few
things in your house that are suitable for me, so I went to buy some casually.”
Hearing what she meant, she probably wouldn’t be in a hurry to leave, and
Jack felt a surge of joy in his heart.
“But how are you going to go back without the key?” Jack thought that he
didn’t leave the key when he left, and Mandy could not go back after leaving
the door.
Mandy smiled lightly, took out a master key from somewhere, and easily
opened the door in front of Jack.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJack was speechless.
Should he change the lock to be safer?
After they entered the door, Mandy casually threw the master key on the
table, glanced at Jack and said, “Have a seat, I’ll service you a glass of
water.”
Jack suddenly had an illusion, not knowing whether Mandy was the landlord
or himself.
Mandy quickly brought a glass of water to Jack. Jack held the cup and looked
at Mandy. Countless questions were stuck in his chest. He didn’t know what
kind of reaction he should make.
After thinking about it for a while, Jack couldn’t help asking, “I saw someone
chasing you that night. Who are they?”
Speaking of what happened that night, the gentle smile on Mandy’s face
faded a little.
“Sorry, I just…” Jack noticed that Mandy was unhappy and apologized quickly.
