Goodbye, My Love

Chapter 1098

Jennie could sense herself teetering on the brink of affection for him.

Watching from a distance, Loraine could tell that Jennie was nearly entranced by the man’s allure.

Resolute, she glided over to the dance floor and effortlessly slipped next to Jennie.

As the fox-masked man twirled on, in a dreamlike state, Loraine plucked

Jennie from his grasp.

Jennie’s eyes popped open in surprise, and seeing Loraine only added to her astonishment. “Lorrie, is everything

okay?”

With a hushing motion, Loraine stood firm, arms folded over her chest.

Without a partner by his side, the man abruptly halted his dance, his initial confusion quickly transforming into

frustration. Yet, as soon as he realized it was Loraine, he fell silent, bowing his head with a heavy conscience,

consumed by guilt.

Smirking, Loraine challenged, “Mr. Todd, aren't we old acquaintances?

Why hide behind a mask when we could greet each other openly?”

Her accusation left Jennie’s eyes wide with disbelief.

Internally sighing, Jimmie Looked confused and asked, “What are you implying? I'm just a gentleman who found

himself captivated by this enchanting woman at the ball...”

But his act couldn’t continue, as Jennie had removed her own mask, her fiery gaze boring into him.

Caught in the act, Jimmie coughed awkwardly, removed his fox mask, and confessed, “Alright, I did know who

you were when | asked you to dance, but my attraction to you was entirely genuine!”

Chewing on her bottom lip, Jennie was torn between anger over his deceit and shthat she had been so

easily charmed.

As the ball began its final countdown, the surrounding guests fell into a unified rhythm. ALL Jennie could focus on

was the irritating brooch that Jimmie had given her. In a moment of frustration, she pulled it off and handed it to

Loraine.

“Lorrie, this cfrom Jimmie. | don’t want it anymore. Take it. Maybe it'll crown you queen tonight!”

Caught off guard, Loraine didn’t know how to react to the sudden gift.

Jimmie tried to interject but thought better of it, internally lamenting his circumstances.

Marco's influence had landed him in trouble once more.

Previously, he’d managed to rile up Jennie, yet he hadn't been able to soothe her fury. Her anger only escalated

further. It felt like an impossible task!

Moreover, what if Marco spotted the brooch in Loraine’s possession and misconstrued that as an invitation for a

dance?

The mere possibility sent chills racing down Jimmie’s spine.
