Chapter âAre you done? You can leave now,â Jerome said.
âSince Iâve come all this way, and itâs still early, It would be a shame not to enjoy the hot springs, wouldnât It?â Connor retorted.
Jerome wasnât surprised by his words at all. He didnât bother to pursue the matter with him anymore.
He simply ordered, âStay away from me.â
Connor was an embarrassment.
âJerome, whereâs Mikayla?â Connor wasnât bothered by Jeromeâs attitude..
He smirked and asked, âI heard that both of youâre showing affection in the public?â
âThatâs none of your business,â Jerome said.
âJerome, youâre so mean. Now that you have Mikayla, you forsake me, Connor said, feeling aggrieved. âIt was me who persuaded Ms. Reign to bring Mikayla over, but now youâre turning your back against me. Yourâe not even willing to share such a happy moment with me!â
âShut up,â Jerome snapped. He was annoyed by Connorâs chatter.
He looked ahead. He saw Mikayla and Celeste come out from a hot spring and headed toward the dining .
Jeromeâs gaze couldnât help but follow Mikayla Her hair was slightly damp. Her curves were exquisite, and her skin was even more dazzling under the sunlight. She looked like a mermaid out of water.
Jerome never thought Mikayla was this stunning before. Why did she suddenly seem so much more attractive now?
Even other men were looking at her. It made him feel uneasy.
Connor also noticed Mikayla and Celeste as he followed Jeromeâs gaze.
They were wrapped in towels, chatting and laughing. They seemed to be enjoying themselves a lot.
*Jerome, why are you sitting here? Arenât you hungry? Donât you want to eat something?â Connor intentionally asked.
Jerome lifted his gaze. âAre you hungry?â
Connor knew Jerome was being stubborn. He nodded, â
, Iâm hungry. Can you do me a favor? Letâs have a meal together.â
Only then did Jerome stand up reluctantly. âLetâs go.â
Connor approached Celeste and Mikayla.
He off his sunglasses and greeted them. âHello, ladies!â
âConnor, what are you doing here? Didnât you say you were busy today?â Celeste casually asked.
Connor felt a little sad.
Why didnât Celesteâs expression change when she saw him? Didnât she see his obs She even greeted him so casually.
As soon as Mikayla saw Jerome, her face turned red.
She quickly turned away. Thatâs the reaction a woman was supposed to have when she saw a handsome guy.
Mikayla couldnât look at Jerome.
He was wearing nothing but swim trunks, with a towel draped over his shoulder.
He had broad shoulders. His hips and his muscles looked firm and toned.
e lights in Though she had seen Jeromeâs body before, the bedroom were dim that time, so she couldnât see his body as clearly as this.
She couldnât bring herself to look at him, especially at his legs.
âMr. Miller, are you feeling hungry? Let us eat together?â Celeste casually said.
Although Connor was a little disappointed, he was quick to react.
âMs. Reign, the grilled seafood over there seems pretty good. Letâs go get some!â he suggested.
Celeste understood his message. âSure. Mikayla, you and Mr. Miller will stay here and get some desserts.â
××××× go with you guys!â Mikayla panickedly said.
âItâs okay. The two of us are enough.â Celeste insisted.
Celeste and Connor walked away while laughing after that.
Mikayla was dumbstruck.
Jerome looked at Mikayla, whose face was slightly red.
His lips curled and said, âMikayla, you know my preferences. Could you be so as to help me get some food?â
Mikayla glared at him she looked up. âDonât you have hands? Why should I help you Jerome wasnât angry at all. Instead, he walked over to her and took the plate from her. âThen Iâll help you.
There were many Miller Groupâs employees in the dining area as well.
When they saw the two of them quarreling, though they greeted them politely, they couldnât help but gossiped about them.
Chapter 217 Of course, Mikayla could hear them.
Jerome must be doing it on purpose.
Knowing that there were employees around, he still approached her and tried to be affectionate.
Mikayla pushed him away.
She annoyedly said, âI donât need your help. I can do it myself.â
Before she could withdraw her hand, she heard Jerome let out a muffled grunt.
He was frowning.
