Chapter 050 Jenny Is Angry, Go and Coax Her
“Barret, you’re here.” As soon as she saw him, Laura immediately softened her voice and spoke in a pitiful manner. She placed her hand on the table, and crimson blood poured out. All so Barret could see it in a glance.
He walked over and immediately grabbed Laura’s hand. He asked nervously, “How did this happen?” Laura did not answer, she just looked at Barret with her watery eyes. It was as if she had been greatly wronged.
“Bring me a silk scarf.” Barret beckoned.
Soon, a waiter brought him a scarf and respectfully handed it to him. Barret bent down and wrapped the scarf around Laura’s wrist with his slender fingers. He had his back toward Jenny, and Jenny could not see the expression on his face.
However, she could guess it. He must be extremely anxious and nervous. As for her, it was as if she was invisible, completely ignored by Barret.
She lost.
She lost completely and thoroughly.
She had no courage to stay any longer, so Jenny got up and left the coffee shop. She didn’t know when it had gotten so windy outside, but the wind was howling. Even the sky became gloomy, and the dark clouds surrounded the entire city.
It was so cold.
Jenny looked at the dark sky and couldn’t help but shiver. She wrapped her arm around herself and took
out her phone, ready to take a taxi home.
Just as the driver arrived and she was about to get in the taxi, suddenly, she felt something on her shoulders. She turned around and Barret was already standing behind her, putting his coat on her.
Why did he come out?
Didn’t he just have a moment with Laura? Wasn’t he worried sick about Laura?
“Why didn’t you say anything before you leave?” Barret looked at her, his voice low and gentle.
It was as if the person who was just worried about his first love was not him.
It was as if the person who had done something wrong was not him, but her.
“You guys are flirting with each other. I didn’t want to intrude,” Jenny said.
“Miss, do you need a ride or not?” the driver said impatiently inside the taxi. “Don’t waste my time.”
Jenny was about to say yes but Barret closed the door before she could say anything and said to the
driver, “No.”
“Why don’t you tell me earlier? What a waste of time.”
“Give me your e-wallet QR code.” Barret went straight to the point.
The driver handed over his phone, and Barret directly sent a hundred dollars to him. When the driver saw
the notification, he immediately smiled.
Jenny looked felt conflicted as she watched the taxi speed off. She lowered her head and did not look at Barret. She kicked the stone on the ground with her feet. “You sent my taxi away. How am I supposed to go home now?”
After saying that, she felt a warmth on her hand. The next thing she knew, her soft and tender hand was wrapped in Barret’s palm.
“It’s very windy, are you cold?”
“I’m not cold,” Jenny said. Then, she took off Barret’s coat and threw it back to him.
“Are you mad?” He looked at her and asked intently.
Jenny turned around and deliberately ignored him, but Barret followed her until he was face to face with
her.
Of course, Jenny wouldn’t forgive him so easily. She remained silent and continued to ignore him. Barret could tell that she was mad, so he did not force her. Instead, he put the coat back on Jenny.
Jenny reached out and was about to take off the coat again. However, Barret put it back on her. At the same time, he said in a serious tone, “It’s very windy. Be a good girl and put on the coat. Or else you’ll catch a cold. Your hands are ice cold. How can you say you are not cold?”
He continued to hold her hand in his palm and gently warmed it.
“Why do you care?”
Jenny wanted to pull back her hand, but Barret held her hand tightly. Jenny tried several times, but it was futile. So, she just let him hold her hand.
At this moment, Laura pushed herself out with the wheelchair. When she saw Barret, she was weeping
again. She looked extremely pitiful.
“Barret, are you going to leave me here?”
“Mr. Smith.” At this time, Carey ran toward them, panting.
Barret eyed Laura and ordered Carey coldly, “Bring her to the hospital to treat her cut.”
“Yes, Mr. Smith.”
“No, I don’t want him bring me there,” Laura instinctively refused, but Carey was as fast as lightning. He immediately wheeled Laura out to the underground garage in a rush.
After they left, Barret looked at Jenny and explained, “You’re a doctor. You should know that since she cut an artery, it will be very dangerous if I just left her bleeding. That’s why I bandaged her up.”
“Oh!” Jenny said casually. She didn’t not take a good look at Laura’s wound. If she really cut an artery, it was indeed dangerous.
“So do you feel better now and ready to forgive me?” Barret asked expectantly.
“No,” Jenny answered concisely and decisively.
The wind outside was getting stronger and stronger. The trees were swaying, and the leaves were trembling violently. The clothes of the pedestrians were lifted by the strong wind, and they were unable to keep warm.
Even so, Jenny felt that her hands were much warmer. Moreover, Barret’ coat reached her ankle. With the boots’ she wore, her whole body was wrapped tightly. She turned around and noticed that Barret was only wearing a sweater and a pair of gray trousers. The tip of his nose turned red from the cold, and his handsome face was frozen.
In the end, Jenny felt bad for him and said, “Let’s go back.”
“Okay.” Barret tightened his hold on her hand and walked toward the underground garage.
When the driver saw Barret, he immediately carne out of the car and opened the door for them. “Good Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
evening, Mr. Smith.”
“I’m done for the day. You can go home now.”
“Okay.”
Jenny watched as the driver walked away and turned to look at Barret. “Then, how are we going back?”
Barret opened the door of the passenger seat and guided Jenny inside. Afterward, he got in the driver’s
seat.
“Didn’t you just say that I send your driver away? Miss Jenny, are you pleased with a good-looking driver like me?”
“Where is the good-looking driver? I don’t see any here…” Before she could finish her words, Jenny suddenly felt Barret inching closer to her.
His face was getting closer and closer. The tip of his nose was almost touching hers
Jenny put her hands on both sides of the seat. She held her breath nervously and suddenly did not dare
to move.
What was he going to do?
At this moment, Jenny could only focus on this question.
They were so close and to each other and so intimately positioned, it was hard for Jenny not to let her
mind wander.
Was he going to kiss her?
Was he going to kiss her or not?
Just as Barret’s lips slid past Jenny’s nose, she nervously closed her eyes. Her lips were soft and pink, as if she was waiting for someone to kiss her.
