Chapter 854

It was only after hearing Danny's reply that Jamie felt relieved enough to wiggle out from under the

table.

"Goodness, I can finally have a meal in peace. If only you knew how I haven't even dared to go home

these days. I have been sleeping in the car every day. Can you imagine how miserable my life has

been?!" Jamie complained while brushing out his clothes.

As soon as his words fell, Narissa's ghastly voice resounded in the room from the door.

"How miserable has it been?!"

Jamie's eyes immediately shot open as he disappeared behind Danny's back. He then took a peek,

only to fall into despair when he saw Narissa's face.

"What the?" He landed a punch on Danny's shoulder. "I thought you said no one tailed you!"

"Yeah," Danny smirked in return. "I brought her here. That is not tailing, is it?"

"You!" The angry Jamie wanted to flash Danny the middle finger, but he managed to suppress his

anger. He had a hideous smile on his face as he patted himself on the pecs. "No doubt you are my best

friend. Are you afraid of not being able to kill me by giving me a rage-induced heart attack?"

"Hehe, of course not." Danny leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Narissa has broken up with

Jayden. Now is your chance! Aren't I the best friend you could ever ask for?"

"My foot, you are!" Jamie would be crying if he had any tears left to cry. At that point, he only wanted to

dig his fingers into Danny's neck and choke him.

"Eh? Oh? Don't you see my good intentions?" Danny asked, his face gloomy.

"No, I don't! What are you going to do about that?!" Jamie wanted to keep arguing about this, but

Narissa's roar immediately stopped the men's argument.

"Jamie, you sh*t! Stop trying to change the topic and come with me!"

After she finished speaking, she stood there while staring at him intently, all the while releasing an aura

that made her seem like she would never give up until she had achieved her goal.

Resigned, Jamie let go of Danny and obediently trudged out of the room.

He didn't forget to complain as he was walking past Danny. "Pea-brained piece of sh*t. I shouldn't have

trusted him!"

"What did I do? Shouldn't he be grateful to me instead?" Danny, who felt wronged, stretched out his

arms as he seeked comfort from Ariel.

Ariel only shrugged as a gesture that she couldn't help. After all, how could someone who couldn't even

sort out her love life be a judge of someone else's relationship?

As Jamie followed after Narissa to the lobby of the hotel, he was just thinking about how he couldn't

escape when they bumped into Elise, who was on her way to the hotel.

"Elise!" Jamie seemed as though he had found his lifesaver when he saw Elise, and he hurried over to

hold Elise's hands. "You are finally here! It just so happens that I have some questions about my

autobiography that I am not quite sure about yet. Let's take the chance to have a proper discussion

about it!"

He kept throwing Elise knowing looks as he spoke.

Save me, Elise!

The ever-perceptive Elise smoothly replied, "Right, we do have to talk."

Jamie was just starting to feel relieved when he heard Elise continue, "Come along, Narissa. We will

make everything clear so that he won't find another chance to run away."

Jamie was utterly defeated upon hearing that. "Elise, just whose side are you on?"

"You are both my friends. I have to be fair." The truth was, Elise secretly still wanted to make a match

out of the two of them.

And so, the trio returned to the private room again. However, Jamie still had some tricks up his sleeves

as he chose to sit somewhere furthest from Narissa. His actions finally infuriated the woman.

Alexander could feel the strange atmosphere in the room when he entered with the children in tow.

After he calmly walked over, he sat down on the chair beside Elise and tilted his torso before asking in

a small voice, "What's going on?"

"Just sit back and watch." Elise smiled. "We are about to find out."

Alexander's curiosity instantly went away as he sat back in his seat.

Seeing this, Irvin fell into deep thoughts while contemplating something.

The food they ordered was finally served, but even after a few minutes had passed after that, the air

around the table was still tense as everything kept mum.

Elise was the first one who couldn't take it any longer. "Jamie," she unhesitantly called him out. "You're

a man. You should speak first."

"What should I say?" He fidgeted and let his head hang.

"About you and Narissa, of course." Elise then frantically hinted, "Stop acting dumb. Be a man and be

straightforward."

However, Jamie was still silent despite Elise's words.

Danny was watching with darting eyes from beside as he held his teacup with a nosy look on his face.

"How am I supposed to talk about something like this…" Jamie still found it hard to start the

conversation.

Alexia finally couldn't take it anymore, and she blurted out, "Just say if you will date Godmother! What

is so hard about that?!"

Elise's eyebrows were immediately raised as her breath subconsciously hitched. She couldn't help

thinking how nice it was that children always said what they thought. Adults would never be able to be

straightforward like that.

"No," Jamie unhesitantly answered.

Hearing that, Narissa asked again, "Why?"

"No reason." Jamie didn't even have the courage to look at her. "How can we be together when I have

never thought about dating?"

Narissa fell silent for a moment before she suddenly mentioned, "You like El, don't you? Have you been

thinking about her only?"

Cough! "Ahem!"

Elise almost choked on her sip of water when she was suddenly a part of the conversation.

Alexander's eyes darkened as he quietly glanced at Jamie.

"Don't just say whatever you like!" Jamie jumped out of his seat, agitated. His Adam's apple bobbed

with difficulty, and he finally decided to let it all out. "Fine, I will be honest—I did admire Elise back then,

but that was only because I respected her for her capability. I have never looked at her like a man

would a woman. I swear to God if I had any improper thoughts, I will get struck by thunder and die a

horrible death!"

Alexander only looked away after feeling satisfied when he heard that.

Good. You spared your own life, Jamie Keller, he mused.

"As for you, we get along very well, and we can be best friends. I will be the first to come if you face

any trouble. But it is not because I have designs for you. I promised Boss that I will take care of you. I

believe that it is possible for men and women to be only friends. I apologize to you if I have

overstepped any line and caused a misunderstanding. I am sorry."

Jamie ended his words with a sincere bow.

Narissa's face froze for a long minute after that.

Even though he had given a long explanation, all that she could see was how hard he tried to protect

Elise.

He would only get worked up whenever he brought up Elise. Even his cowardly self was gone during

these moments.

He didn't even have to say it outright if he loved Narissa or not for the woman to know the answer.

Quietly, she let out a dejected sigh and swallowed all the pain and disappointment in her chest. She

then forcefully slapped herself on the thigh before she forced a smile.

"Thank God. I was thinking that too. After all, you are El's best friend, and you also treat me well. I

wouldn't want you to betray El by giving you a new role as my man! Geez, what a huge

misunderstanding this was! Now that we have made things clear, let's not act so awkwardly around

each other from now on. I even thought you liked me! The fright has made my sleep these days rather

restless. Haha! Honestly, I don't like you like that either. I can finally sleep well again!"

Someone's eyes started to turn moist as they laughed it off.

For some reason, even though Jamie was sitting far away from Narissa and he couldn't clearly see the

tears in her eyes, he could feel her sadness at this moment. It even affected him and drowned him in

sorrow.
