Chapter 358 You Can't Stay on Campus
A ray of sunshine fell on Jack's usually stern expression. At this moment, he looked so affectionate, and there was humor in his eyes.
I turned my head sideways quickly as my heart pounded. I was no longer a pure and naive young lady, so I knew the subtext of what he said. However, the series of pain that rose within my chest helped me keep a cool head. What right did I have to get into a relationship, given the state I was in now? What right did I have to have a crush?
"It's almost time, Jack. Please take me back to campus." I nearly ran back to the car, and I seemed to have heard his light chuckle. However, he didn't drive me to the campus,Text © owned by .

"Leonard's no fool. A lot has been said today. It's
Jack was right. Leonard might not have been himself today, but he could definitely sense that something was wrong
If the mystery about the necklace was unraveled, then I could no longer hide the truth about what happened back then. Quite a number of people knew about my condition. He would eventually get some information from them. Jack realized that I wasn't speaking. So, he said again, "He'll surely track you down to the campus. After all, he has gone to look for Astrid there a couple
of times now
"I'm sorry. It's my fault that Astrid is dragged into this." I lowered my head and stared at my frantic hands. Actually, it wasn't just Astrid. Leonard had also sought out my other fellow classmates in the dorm. He wanted to see me. "It's fine. But it isn't suitable for both of you to stay on campus anymore. You'll have to wait until he returns to the country, at least."
"It's not exactly appropriate for us to stay at your place either," I responded almost without thinking.
From the looks of things, Amella would be giving birth to her baby in two more months. If she was going to stay in Manovia after labor, then there was a good chance she'd be here for the next six months. Leonard seemed so gung-ho about looking after Amelia that he ignored his company entirely. Did that mean I was going to suffer f
for six months?
I could never bring myself to stay in Jack's place for that long. I sensed that he was a little upset. So, I hurriedly explained, "After all, we're both ladies. It won't be appropriate."
"I'm well aware of that. That's why I rented a place for Astrid beforehand. You can stay there for the time being."
What lack said directly stunned me. So, he had a place. If that was the case, why did he ask us to stay at his place just now?
I thought of a certain possibility and immediately looked out the window. I didn't dare to keep thinking about it. All I knew was that my heart was racing.
However, I was completely lost when we arrived at the place lack moned. Why was it located across the street from his place?
"It just so happened that my neighbor went out of the country. So, I rented it." Jack continued not to show any emotions outwardly. He directly keyed in the password, which happened to be my birthday.
I was blushing when I followed him. It was such an obvious hint that I would have to be a simpleton to not see it. With that said, I pretended not to get it. Thad no idea what I should say either.
"Astrid will take your suitcases here later. Look around and see if you need something. I'll ask my men fridge.

"Just warm the milk with the microwave oven. Fresh fruit will be prepared every day. I'll cook every day as well. If I'm too busy, then my assistant, Jacuge Moreau, will send you the meals. Don't eat food anyone else gives you" Jack explained everything to me in a serious tone. He had gotten everything prepared. All that was left was for especially when I saw that the slippers by the entrance were sulted to my taste as well as Astrid's. me to move in, I was a little ashamed,
I wanted to ask Jack when he prepared all of these, but I was too embarrassed to open my mouth.
"What else do you need, Eva?
Nothing at all. 1-I have to get some test. You should go back for now. 1 kept shaking my head and intended to push him out the door, face was going to get unimaginably red.
However, my body gave out the moment I touched Jack Then, I passed out.
