He stood up suddenly and leaned over the table before reaching out to take her hand.
“Ah!” She let out a cry and made a conscious attempt to pull her hand back.
However, his hand grabbed hers firmly, pulling it to his chest.
“Do you feel it? It’s beating faster than usual,” he muttered
as his thick black eyelashes fluttered. “Do you know how fast it was beating yesterday when I saw the man who
wanted to hurt you following you out of shot from the surveillance footage?”

Jason clenched his teeth and looked at the scene that was causing him pain.
‘Is this also the pain… she’s giving me?
‘It’s so swift and violent! The pain is almost unbearable!
‘I no longer love her, no? I only regard her as a sister now!
‘Why does it hurt so much just to see her with Brian? The pain
is even more unbearable than yesterday when I saw Brian

gasp.
