Chapter 810 Let's Sleep Then
"If she cares, I will give up and stop having any delusions about you again."
Kayla answered firmly.
To that, Jara nodded his head.
"Okay, keep your words."
After that, he got up from the sofa.
"From today onward, I will send someone to teach you. Please learn attentively, because what you learn will be very useful when you are with Luca in the future. As for the other preparations, you don't have to worry about it."
Upon finishing his words, he walked out.
As Kayla watched him leave heartlessly, her heart sank.
Even though she had agreed to his request, she was still hopeful toward him.
With that, she suddenly asked, "Jara! Can I ask you another question?"
At once, Jara halted his footsteps. With a faint creased between his brows, he turned back to look at her.
"Ask away."
While fighting back her tears, Kayla asked, "When you think of sending me to Mr. Marsh's side, don't you worry that I will betray you someday?"
Originally, she thought that her question would evoke his concern toward her.
Even if he only treated her as his pawn, as long as he cared, she wouldn't mind.
But in reality, there was no such thing.
Not even a bit concern from him.
In fact, even if she was a useful pawn, he never cared about her.
On the contrary, he replied faintly, "If you manage to fall in love with him and win his heart, you are free to betray me. I don't care."
After that, he left without looking back.
On the other hand, Kayla stood there in a daze.
For a while, she couldn't comprehend his words.
What did he mean by she was free to betray him?
Did she really mean nothing to him?
With that thought, Kayla was completely heartbroken. She squatted down, covered her face, and bawled her eyes out.
Time passed without her knowing.
After she was tired of crying, she got up and trudged out of the lounge.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
It was late at night. After Emmeline waved Yunne away, she turned off the lights and went to bed.
However, at that moment, there was a sound from the window.
As she used to be the number one killer who had made a name for herself, her hearing and vision were exceptional.
Although it was only a faint noise, it managed to get her attention. At once, she opened her eyes and darted her gaze to the window. "Who's there?"
Suddenly, the window opened, and a black figure jumped in.
Panicked, Emmeline was reminded of her car accident, and her eyes turned cold. Then, she grabbed the dart under her pillow.
After the black figure sneaked into the room, he looked around. Probably because his eyes had not fully adapted to the darkness, he moved slowly.
Just then, Emmeline threw several darts at him.
Shocked, he flipped several times and turned sideways to dodge the dart.
Seeing that he was skilled in martial arts, Emmeline was agitated. As her body was heavily injured, she was afraid that she couldn't fight him.
Just as she was about to scream for help, the black figure immediately rushed to the bed as if he knew what she was about to do.
Frightened, Emmeline bit the hand that was about to cover her mouth.
In the darkness, a familiar grunt sounded.
Even so, he didn't resist. On the contrary, he just let her bite him without doing anything else.
Soon, Emmeline felt that something was wrong.
Then, a thought flashed into her mind, and she was surprised. Right away, she let go of him and shouted, "Jara?"
Jara's familiar and indifferent voice sounded in the dark, "It seems like you can still remember my scent. This shows that you don't hate me that much."
"How dare you!"
At that moment, Emmeline was bent out of shape.
Just as he said, she did smell the familiar scent of him just now. Besides, he didn't fight back after she bit him, so she presumed it was him.
But what nonsense was he talking about?
What did remembering his scent had to do with her feelings toward him?
When she was a child, there was a big Golden Retriever that she hated. From a distance, she could tell the smell of its excrement and remembered that stinkiness for more than 20 years. So, did that mean that she liked that Golden Retriever?
He was being ridiculous!
As Emmeline was pissed off, there was a tinge of anger in her tone.
"What are you doing here, sneaking around in the middle of the night? Believe it or not, I'll beat you up as I did to a thief."
Knowing that she was angry, he wasn't offended. Instead, he let out a cold and deep laugh.
While rubbing the back of his hand, he uttered, "You can't hit me. This is my home, so I can come in whenever I want."
His words had ticked Emmeline off.
What a shameless man!
She knew that it was useless to reason with him.
So, she just stared at him coldly. Because the lights were off, she couldn't see his expression clearly. Even so, she felt that he must be having a mischievous and frivolous smile on his face, which would annoy her a lot.
"What are you doing here?!" she roared.
Seeing that she had finally returned to the main topic, Jara stopped fooling around and smiled faintly.
"I heard that you came to me this evening because you have something to discuss with me."
Upon hearing his words, Emmeline froze.
He was right. At that time, she did remember something important, and she wanted to tell him.
Therefore, after asking for his whereabouts, she went to look for him.
When she arrived at the lounge, Quan, who was standing outside, told her that Jara was inside.
Maybe because Jara mentioned that she was allowed to go anywhere she wanted, Quan didn't stop her from entering, and with that, she happened to see the amorous scene.
At the thought of that scene, Emmeline was once again burning with rage.
With a sneer, she derided, "Originally, I do have something to talk to you, but it seems like you are occupied with a woman, and I don't think you will have the mood to listen to me. Anyway, it doesn't matter. I can handle my own affairs. So, you may leave now!"
After finishing her words, she flipped her body and faced herself away from him.
Obviously, she was frustrated.
Jara could sense it.
Even so, he was not anxious. After he waggled his brows, he lay down beside her and muttered, "Okay. If you don't want to say it, let's sleep then."
At that moment, she could feel his breath coming from her back. Then, his strong and powerful arms crossed her body and rested on her waist.
That drove Emmeline bananas.
Annoyed, she turned around and snarled, "What are you doing?!"
