Chapter38 She Looks Like His Ex-girlfriend
She Looks Like His Ex-girlfriend
"Whatever it is." Jane felt that if they didn’t look like each other, she would definitely doubt whether they
were biological brothers. They were like ice and fire. One was passionate and the other cold.
Joel added some wine for Jane, looking like he was gossiping. "Jane, are you my brother's girlfriend?"
Jane's hand paused when she was cutting the steak, she looked up at Joel in surprise. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Honestly speaking, their current relationship should not be that of couple. However, after all, they had
already lived together. In the eyes of outsiders, this relationship was probably the same one.
Jane shook her head, "I don't know if it is, but I'm your brother's secretary at the moment."
"I know that you are my brother's secretary, but your relationship with him is more than that. In my
opinion, my brother treats you differently from others."
Joel winked at her. He had discovered from the morning when he was at the company that his ice-
faced brother's attitude towards Jane was completely different from that towards others.
Jane lowered her head and blushed. She knew that Jeffery had a special attitude towards her.
However, she was still a little embarrassed by being seen through and being pointed out in this manner.
"I don't know what exactly he likes. It stood to reason that your big brother doesn't even like Mona,
much less an ordinary girl like me who doesn't have any family background or capabilities."
In fact, she also knew that although she was still somewhat beautiful, she was not beautiful enough to
captivate people. However, Jeffery seemed to be very kind to her from the very beginning. Jane had
never figured out why.
Joel raised his head and stared deeply at her, his eyes were somewhat cryptic.
"Probably because you look more like that woman."
Jane froze.
She looked more like that woman? Which woman?
She was a little confused and looked at him blankly.
Joel seemed to have seen through her thoughts and smiled. Without waiting for her to ask, he took the
initiative to answer her questions. "She is my brother's ex-girlfriend. They met when they studied
abroad. But later, I don't know why they separated. It's said that she left my brother."
When it came to this matter, his attitude was very indifferent. After all, it had been a long time since it
happened, and almost everyone had forgotten about it. It was nothing serious to mention it casually.
However, Jane's heart felt as if it was being pricked by needles. A fine wave of pain pierced through
her heart, so much so that her face turned pale.
So the reason why Jeffery treated her so well was because she looked like his ex-girlfriend?
For so many years, he had never forgotten that woman. He couldn't find her, so he happened to find
such a substitute?
She felt more and more uncomfortable, as if her neck was being strangled, and even breathing was a
little difficult.
She was about to ask why the two of them parted when she saw Jeffery walking over to them. She shut
her mouth and did not pursue the matter any further.
Jeffery came back and obviously felt that there was something wrong with Jane's face. He leaned close
to her ear and asked, "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"
In the past, Jane would shake her head, but today, Jane reflexively moved to the side and deliberately
distanced himself from him. Her attitude was indifferent, as if she was treating a stranger whom she
had only met a few times.
Jeffery frowned.
She didn't look at Jeffery's expression and answered in a low voice, "Nothing, I'm just sleepy. I want to
go back early."
"Since you're tired, let's go back first." After bidding Joel farewell, Jeffery drove home. Along the way.
Jane didn't say anything. She even pretended to rest with her eyes closed to prevent Jeffery from
noticing that something was amiss.
She wanted to ask Jeffery, whether she was a substitute for his ex-girlfriend or not. But after thinking
for a long time, they were not in a relationship. Although they lived together, he had never announced
that she was his girlfriend. She was not qualified.
When she got home. Jane just greeted Jeffery briefly and went straight upstairs into the bathroom. She
took a shower of cold water to calm herself down and then lay back on the bed to rest.
She tried not to think or feel sad, but she couldn't.
Now as soon as she closed her eyes, her mind was filled with Jeffery, his love and care, and when she
was bullied, he would come out to protect her...
Her nose twitched and she wanted to cry.
If all this was for another woman, because she looked like his ex-girlfriend, so he shifted his feelings for
his ex-girlfriend, then she would be so sad.
When Jeffery finished cleaning up and went back to his room, he saw Jane asleep. He got on the bed
quietly and reached out to hold Jane in his arms. However, Jane resisted stiffly.
"What's wrong with you?" Jeffery frowned and didn't understand why she suddenly refused him.
Jane turned her back to Jeffery, bit her lip, and thought for a long time. Then she said, "No, maybe my
period is coming. I'm not feeling well. Go to sleep. You have to go to work tomorrow."
Jeffery looked at Jane's back and said nothing. After a while, he turned off the light and lay down next
to her.
The bedroom was so quiet that only two people were breathing. Jane felt the warmth from his body and
her entire body tensed up.
She could not fall asleep and just stared at a small night lamp on the bed in a daze. Until his breathing
gradually stabilized behind her, she felt that Jeffery had fallen asleep, and then she relaxed. When she
was about to turn over, an arm reached out and gently rested on her.
She froze, but her arms around her waist were getting tighter and tighter. Jeffery pulled her into his
arms and kissed her on the forehead again. He said nothing and held her quietly for the whole night.
Jane had been in a daze since she heard about his ex-girlfriend from Joel that day.
Joel went to the company the next day and Jeffery gave him the position of vice president. When the
girls in the company saw him, they felt like they were seeing their idols and were infatuated with him.
She couldn't blame the girls. Joel was indeed handsome, and not as cold and terrible as Jeffery. Of
course, he had gained a large number of female fans.
Jane took the materials into the elevator, and Joel, who was behind, followed them. The eyes of the
female colleagues in the elevator were shining. Joel greeted everyone and turned to tease Jane. "Jane,
where is my brother?"
"The president is having a meeting with the company department. I'm going to send them some
documents." Jane moved aside and gave a seat to his female colleague who wanted to get close to
Joel.
