“Paulette.”
“– Go!”
11 2010
As soon as the words were spoken, both of them were stunned.
Then they smiled at each other.
Paulette bit her lip, her crimson cheeks standing out in the light. She muttered, “Why suddenly ask me to do it? Just tell me when you’re free.”
Jeremiah was sitting lazily, with his fingers resting casually on his legs, playing with his phone in the palm of his hand.
He didn’t say anything, just looked at the girl across with a deep smile in his eyes.
Quite a while!
A sigh escaped from the lips.
He stood up.
Paulette was always on the lookout for her reactions. When she sensed something was up, she raised her hand defensively and said, “What are you doing!”
Jeremiah couldn’t help but laugh, he reached out and pulled her hand down from his chest, holding it in his palm, patiently saying, “What’s wrong, let’s talk.”

“What, talk about what?”
“Talk to you.”
“Me?”

“Um,” Jeremiah’s voice was gentle, with his unique touch of nonchalance and laziness, “Let’s talk about me too, I think there’s a misunderstanding between us.”
Paulette’s eyes flickered and she murmured softly, “There’s no misunderstanding…”
“Some did.”
The man’s voice was firm, like a warm water pouring into the heart, “Yesterday I said I was troubled by love, I was thinking about how to make our relationship different, I was thinking about you.”
Paulette suddenly looked up, met those dark pupils, and then quickly looked down again.
“I…I didn’t misunderstand.”
In fact, she did misunderstand.
But in front of this man, it’s definitely not good to say such things directly, otherwise she would lose face.
Jeremiah didn’t dwell on the issue, but said seriously, “But I want to explain to you, I don’t want you to be upset by what I say, you know what I mean?”
Seems like I got it.
But I didn’t really understand.

Paulette was feeling groggy, like she had been drinking.
She thought for a while and came up with one thing –

Jeremiah got married to her under family pressure, but he was seriously thinking about how to manage it, how to nurture the relationship… He really wanted to move on to the next stage of life with her.
Paulette’s heart was pounding, about to jump out.
“I…”
She licked her lips and whispered, “I got it.
Jeremiah looked at her obedient appearance, his heart melted.
My palms were itching again.
I wanted to touch her.
Paulette could feel a burning gaze on her the whole time, her face getting hotter and hotter. If there was a thermometer, it would probably be off the
charts.
Luckily Larissa showed up just in time, breaking the awkward and ambiguous situation, “We can wash our hands and eat now…”
Seeing the awkward eye contact between the two, she only realized afterwards that she had arrived at the wrong time, “Um, did I interrupt you guys? I’ll just…”
“No, not at all, you came just in time!”
Paulette quickly walked over, linked arms with Larissa, and headed to the kitchen. “Are you not ready yet? Let me help you!”

The two of them left quietly after talking, and the living room suddenly became quiet.
There were intermittent voices in his ears, and Jeremiah always had a smile on his face, a sense of indescribable satisfaction creeping into his heart.
That’s already pretty good, isn’t it?
He didn’t need to rush.
Anyway, Paulette was here, and she’ll always be here.
The misunderstanding cleared up, and the atmosphere at home finally returned to normal. Larissa was like a spy, glancing at the two of them from time to time, and I felt that familiar feeling again.
She smirked with her lips pursed.
Couldn’t expose it, had to hold up the bowl to cover my face.
When Paulette was eating, she didn’t look at her phone. After finishing eating and picking up her phone to check, she was almost scared by a dozen missed calls.
Nelson.
Was he crazy?
It’s been so long since we pulled her out of the blacklist, why did you suddenly contact her today?
Jeremiah and Larissa came out of the restaurant and saw Paulette staring at her phone.
Larissa nudged Jeremiah with her elbow and gave him a look, Why don’t you go find out what’s going on?

He clenched his fist and coughed lightly against his nose.
I walked up to Paulette and handed her the water. “What’s wrong?”
“Not really.”
Paulette came to her senses, took the water and said “thank you.” She thought there was nothing she couldn’t say, so she whispered, “Nelson called me many times, I’m still debating whether to go back.”
Jeremiah’s eyes flickered and he absentmindedly looked towards the yard.
“Why?”
Paulette didn’t understand, “What?”
