Chapter 1004 Be My Boyfriend
Anthony, seeing that Jane had lost so many times, let her win once. "They met in Australia, not in Mexico. Jovan saved Ainslee's life."
'Oh! Jovan saved Ainslee, but Ainslee still wanted Jovan to sell himself to him. How immoral!' Jane thought.
Jane pouted angrily. Anthony asked her, "What were you angry about?"
Jane's eyes fixed, and she said to Anthony seriously, "You have to beat me first if you want to know that!"
Anthony couldn't help but smile helplessly for a moment. His gaze at Jane grew more and more distant.
So, the next time they rolled the dice, Anthony won and asked Jane,"What were you upset about just now?"
Jane inwardly cried out, 'Oh no.'
'I couldn't tell Anthony about seeing Jovan! And I don't want to tell anyone that Jovan sold himself to Ainslee, who only knows how to snack all the time. It would be so embarrassing for Jovan!' Jane thought.
"I can't tell you." Jane poured herself half a glass of red wine and drank it.
In the latter half, Jane began to regret not doing a divination before going out today. Otherwise, how could she have lost to Ainslee, who was eating lollipops at the shooting range, and now keep losing to Anthony?
Except for winning a few rounds at the beginning, she lost completely afterward.
"Not playing anymore." Anthony saw that Jane would get drunk if she continued, so he took the red wine away from her.
Jane's head was a bit dizzy, and her vision blurred when she looked at Anthony. She squinted her eyes to focus on him.
"Anthony Clark, don't move! You're giving me a headache!" Jane sat on the mahogany desk, commanding with great justification.
Anthony glanced at Jane, took the red wine and decanter to the side, and then moved the wine glasses away to prevent Jane from accidentally breaking them and hurting herself.
"Anthony Clark! I told you not to move! If you don't listen, I'll have my brother fire you!" Jane's face turned red, and even though she was drunk, she didn't slur her words. Her voice and speech just became more determined.
Anthony was taken aback. "Fire me?"
"You're a bodyguard hired by my family. If you don't listen to me, I'll dock your pay, not give you food, not let you rest, and make you stay with me all the time!"
'Jane is indeed drunk and thinks it is three or four years ago,' Anthony thought.
Anthony leaned against the windowsill, staring at Jane with a mix of feelings, his expression gentle but his eyes complicated.
Anthony stopped moving, and Jane was very satisfied. She jumped off the desk and staggered towards Anthony.
As she walked, she said domineeringly, "I told you not to move! Why are you moving again!"
Anthony laughed in exasperation, "Jane, you're drunk."
Jane completely ignored this, quickening her pace towards Anthony, as if moving faster would stop Anthony from moving.
Seeing Jane about to stumble, Anthony quickly stepped forward to catch her.
Unexpectedly, Jane threw herself into Anthony's arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, and looked up at him with a silly smile. "Anthony, when I turn eighteen, will you be my boyfriend?"
Anthony froze, his Adam's apple bobbing.
When Jane said it out, his heart began to race.
Anthony even thought of taking advantage of Jane's confused state, lifting her by the waist, and kissing her lips.
'There would probably be a hint of red wine aroma. This bottle of Lafite has a good vintage,' Anthony thought.
Anthony cupped Jane's face in his hands, gently caressing her cheeks. He saw his reflection in Jane's clear, bright eyes.
After a long while, Anthony finally spoke, "I..."
"Don't talk!" Jane suddenly changed her expression and furrowed her brows .
Jane shook her head, not sure what she was thinking. But then she took a step back in fear, looking at Anthony warily, the affectionate adoration of earlier completely gone.
"No, no..." Jane muttered to herself. When she looked up, she was already crying, her gaze at Anthony full of hatred.
With tears in her eyes, Jane said with both self-reproach and pain, "You're not Anthony anymore. You hurt my brother and you made me lose my brother. Anthony, you made me lose my family."
Anthony felt a sharp pain .
Even when drunk, Jane keeps mentioning Jovan, seeking justice for him. If she loses Jovan, she would feel she has no family. Wouldn't she have a family when she gets married in the future? Anthony thought.
Thinking of this, Anthony, who already disliked Jovan, found him even more unbearable.
"Jane..."
"Shut up!" Jane shouted at Anthony, pointing at his nose while crying. "Get away from me! Stay away! You liar! You jerk! I don't want you anymore!"
Anthony furrowed his brows, regretting letting Jane drink so much.
Other women might be cute when drunk, but Jane was frantic. There was no way to communicate with her now.
But Anthony still patiently explained to Jane, "How did I lie to you? I didn't lie to you."
"I treated you as my boyfriend, and you just wanted to ruin my family. You betrayed my feelings!" Jane hiccupped through her tears and continued her accusations. "You said you would take care of me. I knelt before you all night, but you ignored me completely. I've never knelt before anyone. You're a big jerk who deceives my feelings! My brother would feel sorry for me."
When Jane mentioned the first part, Anthony felt very guilty.
Indeed, back then, Anthony had wronged Jane. He didn't choose to see Jane and it made her suffer, which was his fault. So now, if Jane didn't want him, he accepted it.
'But why does Jane bring up Jovan again?'
Anthony cursed inwardly and saw Jane stumbling towards the bed, suddenly opening the window. The howling sea breeze blew in.
Jane's hair, now quite long, was blown in all directions by the sea breeze, as if she might be swept away at any moment.
Jane's body leaned forward. "Jane, what are you doing!" Anthony's heart leaped into his throat. He rushed forward and held Jane in his arms.
Anthony feared Jane might do something foolish.
Back then, during such a significant upheaval, she had never shown any signs of wanting to end her life when Anthony had people following Jane all the time,
Or rather, Anthony was certain that Jane's character wouldn't lead her to do something foolish because of the collapse of the Watkins family, which was why he had decided to bring down the Watkins family .And Jovan's near-death was just an accident.
Jane finally managed to free one hand from Anthony's grip, pointing at the sea horizon outside the window, and said to Anthony, "You! Jump down! Jump down and atone with your death!"
Jane craned her neck to look outside a few more times, with a serious look on her drunk face, and said to Anthony, "I've checked. If you jump from here, you'll definitely die!"
'So she wants me dead and is even planning a way for me to die,' Anthony thought.
