Chapter 1866


    Jared was a little ufortable after learning the news and stopped contacting Trisha.


    They both returned to Chanaea after graduating from Maxwell University. To his surprise, Trisha


    applied for and was hired to be Harvey’s assistant in Jupiter Group.


    Thereafter, the two crossed paths several times in thepany, yet they never discussed anything


    outside of work.


    Jared had never seen Trisha in anything else but her work attire, and he could not exin the odd


    feeling in his chest when he saw her less uptight self in public.


    Beside him, Henry arched a brow and teased, “Look… Someone’s hitting on her, and he’s a looker. I


    guess Trisha’s not going to be single for too much longer.”


    He was genuinely happy that Trisha could potentially find her true love. Even without Henry''s reminder,


    Jared clearly noticed the stranger flirting with Trisha. He was certain that she would reject his


    advances, her self-discipline would not allow her to entertain a random man''s flirting.


    s, he was instantly proven wrong when Trisha joined the man in a nearby booth. She clinked her


    flute ss against the man''s and took a light sip.

    The man sat opposite her and said something which brought a faint smile to Trisha’s lips.


    While Jared pondered the meaning of her expression, Trisha''s mysterious suitor gantly invited her for


    a dance.


    Trisha only hesitated for a fraction of a second before cing her hand in the man''s outstretched palm.


    They walked to the dance floor, and when it seemed as though their bodies were almost stered


    together, Jared suddenly stood up.


    Henry, who had leaned most of his weight on Jared while beaming at Trisha, immediately lost his


    bnce and almost fell t on his face.


    Confused, Henry asked, “Jared, what are you…”


    Before he could finish his sentence, Jared stalked toward the dance floor and mped his hand around


    Trisha’s wrist, ready to drag her out of there.


    Trisha spotted his approach and instinctively lowered her gaze. The ghost of a smirk curved her lips,


    though she controlled her expression carefully, considering the circumstances.


    “Let go!” Her suitor grabbed her arm before Trisha could utter a word, demanding Jared to let go.


    Men knew their fellow peers’ intentions the best, and Jared instantly knew that the stranger before him


    was dead set on pursuing Trisha.


    He did not even consider the ramifications of his statement as he dered, “You’re the one who should


    let go. She’s my wife.”


    “Your wife?” The man immediately whirled toward Trisha and asked, “You’re his wife?”


    Trisha certainly wished she could corroborate Jared’s im, yet he clearly did not have romantic


    feelings for her.


    She pursed her lips thoughtfully before muttering, “He…”


    “Darling, I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have lied to you about working overtime at thepany. Still,


    you can‘t just deny the fact that I’m your husband, right?” As Jared spoke, he shot Trisha a loving gaze


    that positively struck her dumb.


    His act was convincing enough to ward off Trisha’s suitor, who loosened his grasp on her hand.


    However, that did not stop him from saying to Trisha, “If your husband doesn’t want you anymore, I’ll be


    waiting. I don’t even care if you’re a divorcée. Here‘s my name card…”


    He was too infatuated with her looks. Then, the man produced a name card from his pocket and stuffed


    it in Trisha’s hand before leaving.


    Jared immediately swiped the name card from her. Tossing it on the floor, he practically dragged Trisha


    outside.


    Back at the booth, Henry watched the situation unfold, mouth agape with shock.


    I thought that brat Jared didn’t like Trisha?


    Why is he suddenly so anxious when another man’s interested in her?
