Chapter 38
All the gentleness on Jayce’s face disappeared at this moment. He became indifferent, as if this was his true appearance.
“I’m sorry for causing you to misunderstand and for causing you to have unchanging thoughts about me. I will take care of myself in the future, but please… Little Mary, can you forget this and give up on this relationship that you shouldn’t have?”
After saying that, Jace stood up and left.
Mary watched his back disappear, feeling his determination and ruthlessness.
Yes, everything was just her wishful thinking!
Mary stood by the window in a daze, looking at the heavy rain outside the window.
Jace had already left the villa. She stayed here, every moment, her heart was tormented!
She must have become a shameless and lascivious girl in Jayce’s eyes?
She had fallen in love with her brother, and there was no ethics in his eyes!
How could Mary continue to stay?
She opened the closet, and it was full of things she had bought with Jayce’s other card yesterday, as well as a man’s watch.
She had wanted to give it to her as a gift, but there was no need now.
Mary put the card on the nightstand, changed into her T-shirt and shorts, and went to Jayce’s garage when Adele and Isidore weren’t looking.
She had her eyes on a motorcycle, and the keys were in the cabinet next to it.
It was still raining outside, and Mary left Jayce’s house in the rain on her helmet and motorcycle.
By the time Isidore and Adele found out, she was gone in the rain.
Jayce knew that when Mary left his house, he was still on his way to the company.
It seemed that she had left not long after he left.
The butler said that she was still riding a motorcycle, and that in such heavy rain, she would definitely be drenched.
Was she testing him?
Was she testing if he would look for her?
“Sir, do you want to look for the lady?”
The driver stopped the car by the side of the road and turned around to ask him.
Jayce did not think much about it. “To the office.”
He picked up the tablet and began to deal with official business.
But his brows had been tightly furrowed, and more frustration rose in his heart!
Perhaps, it was also good that he left, so as not to let her sink deeper and deeper.
It seemed that it was better for him to appear less in front of her in the future.

Mary found herself a hotel.
She took a bath first and then asked the hotel to send over a feast.
Just as she was about to feast, there was a knock on the door.
Mary went to open the door in confusion and looked at Hugh Hall and Herman Hall standing outside the door in surprise.
“Why are you here!?”
Hugh looked at her with a cold smile. “I see that you are living a carefree life! Do you think that we really want to look for you?”
“Running around in such a heavy rain, you have no sense of responsibility at all!”
“Do you think that everyone in New York is very proud of themselves for looking for you? Do you think that you are very important?”
“Damn brat, hurry up and go back with me!”
Hugh yelled at Mary.
Mary’s face darkened, and she did not want to endure it anymore. “Did I ask you to look for me? I wanted to be alone for a while, and you guys kept looking for me. I still felt disturbed, so why are you being so weird!?”
“Whoa! You!” Hugh choked back, and his eyes widened in anger. “You really are a sharp-tongued person! That night, you even acted like you were wronged in front of Daddy and Diana! You’re a drama queen!”
Mary snorted coldly. “If you have the ability to do so, then go expose me! You only know how to talk, and you can’t do anything to me, you coward!”
Hugh’s throat made a strained sound because of his anger and impatience. Seeing that they were going to continue arguing, Herman said, “Okay, stop arguing. Let us in first?”
Mary could argue with Hugh because of his bad attitude, but she could not shut Herman out for no reason.
She stepped aside and let Herman and Hugh enter the room first.
Mary was in a suite, and the two men were shocked to see the table full of delicious food. Could she finish it all by herself?
Mary had already flashed into the bedroom. She quickly changed her bathrobe into suspenders and shorts, and dried her wet hair.
When Mary came out again, only a few minutes had passed, but Hugh was already very impatient.
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pack your luggage, and come back with us!”
Mary did not want to argue with Hugh anymore.
She sat down at the dining table, picked up a spoon, and ate a mouthful of mousse cake. “Where are you going? I don’t want to go to any of you seven brothers today. I’m staying here.”
She raised her eyebrows.
“Yo-ho! Did you have a fight with Jayce? Isn’t boss the brother who likes you the most among us? Now he has seen your true colors?”
Mary felt that Hugh Hall’s mouth was really vicious!
“Can you shut your mouth if you can’t speak nicely?”
