Jayce Hallâ¦his image flashed through her mind along with his kind faceâ¦
The moment she thought of him, Maryâs heart was still struck hard!
How painful it had been, how sad it had been, how much she had vented her anger at this moment!
It seemed to be right. He had once rejected her, and Mary had finally found a more advantageous reply and answer!
See, she was with someone with the surname Hall.
Even if it wasnât Jayce, there were other brothers who would bravely tell her that Hall loved Dawson!
âWhat about you? Do you have feelings for me?â
Monroe Hall touched Maryâs face, asking her to look at him.
Mary woke up from her reverie and met Monroe Hallâs burning eyes.
Did she feel anything?
She only felt that she was being pressed down by him until she could barely breathe!
âI donât know!â
Mary wanted to push Monroe away, but Monroe used some force this time, so she pushed him a few times, but it was useless.
Monroeâs hand moved to her chin and lifted her up slightly.
She slowly lowered her head again, so close to Maryâs face that it was only a distance that could be kissed if she lowered her head slightly.
âI know that you are a little concerned about my terrible personal life in the past.
âBut, Mary, do you know?
âLast night, I came back from the outside covered in blood. You stood at the door of the room and questioned me. At that moment, I felt so happy.
âIt seems that no matter how late I am, when I return from bathing in blood, there will always be someone waiting for me in the warm light of the house⦠It was you who gave me the warmth after an entire night of coldness.
âItâs also you who despised my past, making me unable to sleep the entire night.
âSo, I had a fever at dawn.â
A pitiful expression appeared on Monroeâs face.
Mary pointed at herself, so he had a fever, and it was her fault?
Monroe held her finger and kissed it. âI wonât force you to agree to it immediately, but I want you to give me a chance and consider it, okay?â
Mary retracted her finger and shook her head. âNoâ¦â
Unfortunately, before she could finish her words, Monroe covered her mouth.
He narrowed his eyes and stared at her dangerously. âDonât refuse!â
Mary widened her eyes. How could he be so overbearing?
Monroe stared at her beautiful light green eyes. âBut I can promise you that from now on, I wonât touch a single hair of any other woman except for you, okay?â
Mary couldnât control herself anymore and pushed Monroe away!
âItâs none of my business who you sleep with!â
She got up and ran into the room in a panic and closed the door with a bang!
Then, she locked the door.
Monroe looked at Maryâs tightly shut door, and his expression gradually became serious.
A fever made him realize that he had to face this matter and couldnât escape anymore.
He was determined to get her.
Mary covered her head with her hand and plunged into the quilt on the bed.
Mary tossed around, kicking her feet. She did not want to get involved in the relationship with her brothers. After all, she had just been rejected by Jayce. If she turned around and was with Monroe and was discovered by everyone, would they think that she was destroying the relationship between them?
When Mary thought about that scenario, she felt a little confused.
However, when Mary gradually calmed down, she realized something that made her even more devastated!
She, actually, did not want to reject Monroe Hall!
Mary locked herself in her room and did not even come out for lunch.
Monroe carried the food that Adela and the others had sent up. After knocking on the door a few times, he was a little angry.
âDo you want me to blow up the door?â
Mary was terrified by the overbearing threat from the mafia boss.
âLeave it at the door, Iâll take it myself!â
ââ¦Okay.â Monroe put down the food in compromise. From the sound of it, he had returned to his room.
Mary opened a crack in the door after a while. She looked around and saw that no one was there before she carefully dragged the tray into the room.
Mary was about to close the door when suddenly, a foot blocked the crack in her door!
Mary jumped up and looked at Monroe, who suddenly appeared in front of her, and threw a punch!
