Chapter 817 A Husband Always Follow His Wife

On the other side of the huge table, Zac shook his head. "People who don't know will definitely think that Eva has failed in the audition. They will never think that she just hasn't eaten a plate of spaghetti."

Essie patted him on the shoulder and said, "You won't know the world of our foodies."

Zac rubbed her nose dotingly. "You are not on the same level of her."

Essie totally agreed with him.

In the corridor of the second floor, Vinton accompanied Eva into the room. His wife seemed to be in a bad mood. Although he didn't know the reason, he had to comfort her.

Jim and Janice went upstairs from behind.

"It's late. Go to bed early." Jim put his arm around her thin shoulder.

Jim trembled slightly. He neither stopped her nor responded to her. However, in his mind, there was another shadow, the seemingly spicy but sweet heaven pepper.

"Jim?" A sad expression flied into Janice's eyes. She didn't want a react like this, she wanted the passionate response as before.

An apologetic look appeared on Jim's face. She appeared so suddenly that he still needed time to adapt.

He held her face and said, "Don't be naughty. Go to sleep, okay?" His tone was like coaxing a child. He used to coax her like this.

"Jim, I don't want to be alone. Let me be with you tonight, okay?" Tears welled up in Janice's eyes, and her tearful expression was really pitiful.

Jim sighed and walked into his room with her in his arms.

As soon as the door was closed, Janice threw herself into his arms regardless of anything. She would give him time to adapt to her, but first of all, she had to make herself his woman.

"Jim, I've been missing you all these years. We've missed too much. Don't wait any longer. Let's start over and become what we used to be, okay?" She sobbed and grabbed him with her slender fingers. Her movements were skilled and bold, completely different from the previous young girl's shyness.

Jim grabbed her hand and said, "Janice, I'm still confused. Give me some time."

The disappointment in Janice's heart surged like the waves. "Jim, don't you love me anymore?"

"No, it is not like that." Jim sighed, "After all, we have been apart for too long. Both of us need time to adapt to each other."

"I'm sorry." Janice lowered her head, and a drop of tear fell from her eyes. "I'm just afraid of breaking up with you again."

"Don't be silly. I won't let you leave me again." Jim raised his hand and wiped the tears off her face. Then he lowered his head and kissed her gently on the forehead.

Then he picked up the pillow and blanket and went to the sofa. Tonight she slept on the bed while he slept on the sofa.

It was getting late.

Jim didn't fall asleep for a long time. He turned around and saw Janice sleeping soundly. He quietly stood up and walked out of the room.

On the balcony, someone leaned against the railing and looked at the stars, just like him.

A glimmer of light flashed through his eyes. "Heaven pepper, why don't you slee

t you would cook a lot of dishes for me, didn't you?"

Jim was choked. After such a long time, this silly girl still remembered, and was still struggling and confused.

"You are dreaming," he denied resolutely.

All of a sudden, the light in Eva's eyes dimmed. "Forget it. Even if you can cook a lot of dishes, I can't eat them. After we get married, I may temporarily quit the entertainment circle and go to Malaysia with Vinton. By then, we really won't see each other often. But don't worry. Before I leave, I will pay off all my debts to you."

Hearing this, Jim was shocked. "Are you going to Malaysia?"

"Yes." Eva nodded. "Vinton will be the president of the Xu group in the South Asia region in the future. Before the Xu family changes the head of the company, he will always stay in Malaysia. Of course I have to go with him. I can't separate in two places, right?"

Jim shook his shoulders as if he had been hit by a blow. At the thought that he would never see his enemy for three lifetimes in the future, his heart seemed to be hollowed out by a pair of big hands, and he felt very sad.

"You have to give up your career. You are determined to be a rich lady and serve your husband and son in the future."

"Not really. I'm going to build a studio and retire behind the scenes. If I stay at home all day long, I will definitely be bore to death." Eva smiled.

Jim grabbed the icy mineral water on the table and took a big gulp. Then he fell into silence. After a while, he slowly said, "Heaven pepper, do you really love Vinton?" Her voice was as low as breath.

"Yes, I love Vinton very much." Eva nodded without hesitation.

The corner of Jim's mouth twitched, and the muscles around his mouth were gradually stiff like ice. "I wish you happiness," he said in a low voice.

In the shadow outside the kitchen, Janice stood there for a long time, staring at them as before.

Her eyes were full of confusion, resentment and jealousy, and as malicious as the cold night.
