Chapter 228
“Juvenile? Lucas, do you think I’m juvenile?”
“You are always credulous. You trust people who don’t deserve your trust. They can only affect your judgment.
Aren’t you juvenile?”
Terry laughed. “Lucas, you are too conceited!”
Terry then snorted. “Lucas, you are not the only one who is right in this world. The difference between you and me
doesn’t make me wrong. You are too conceited.”
But Lucas did not want to argue with Terry. He was afraid that Jessica would come down like the last time and then
see him and Terry in a ridiculous fight.
Lucas glanced at Terry coldly, then turned and left.
Lucas was annoyed.
Because he realized that Terry had fallen for Jessica indeed.
Terry got close to Jessica not because he wanted to go against Lucas. Terry did that simply because he was in love
with Jessica.
When he realized this, Lucas’ face immediately darkened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe turned around, only to find Terry had already vanished from his sight.
Lucas was the only one outside Jessica’s apartment.
Lucas frowned and walked back to his car. He then drove back to his apartment.
It seemed to be a sleepless night for someone.
Terry was in a bad mood, so he drove to the racing site and joined the racing.
The wind in the mountains was very strong. Terry stepped on the accelerator hard.
After a few turns, he won first place without any surprise. As soon as the car approached, Terry heard a bunch of
people cheering around his car.
However, Terry was not happy at all. Lucas’ words were like a big rock pressing him down. He felt breathless once
he recalled those words.
“Terry, what happened to you tonight?”
Jerry took the helmet over from Terry. When he looked up, he saw the coldness in Terry’s eyes.
Jerry was shocked. Jerry had not seen Terry like that for quite some time. He had almost forgotten that this was who
Terry really was.
Terry didn’t even look at Jerry. He took out a cigarette, leaned against the car, and started smoking.
The money he won was brought up, and Jerry carefully placed it in front of him. “Terry, here’s your money.”
Terry blew out a puff of smoke. As the smoke lingered, he looked up at Jerry through the smoke. “You guys can
share it.”
Jerry looked at Terry’s face. If he hadn’t known Terry well, he would have been tempted.
Although 200,000 dollars was not a lot to Terry, it was a great sum of money to Jerry. Terry said he didn’t want it.
Even Jerry felt it was a pity. “Terry, you really don’t want it?”
“Too much talking.”
Terry was a little impatient. He directly took the suitcase and opened it. He took out the money that was neatly
stacked inside. He was just about to scatter when he suddenly changed his mind. He closed the suitcase and carried
it back to his car.
Terry came in a hurry and left after the racing. The people there did not understand what was going on. Even Jerry,
who was the most familiar with Terry, felt somewhat baffled.
It was more than thirty kilometers away from Jessica’s apartment. There were no cars on the road at night. Terry
drove at 80 mph. In less than half an hour, the car stopped at Jessica’s apartment.
He carried the 200,000 dollars he won and entered the elevator directly.
He knocked on the door, and after a while, the door opened. Jessica saw Terry, who was standing against the wall
with a box in his hand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJessica was stunned for a moment. “What’s the matter? It’s so late now.”
Terry did not answer her question. He looked up at her. For the first time, Jessica saw neither shining nor smiling in
his eyes. She felt as if all his emotions were shrouded in mist.
Jessica’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Terry like that. She didn’t like him this way.
“Take it.”
Terry handed her the box in his hand. Jessica looked down and was a little confused. “What is this?”
“My gift.”
After he finished speaking, he grabbed her hand and made her hold it.
Then Terry let go. Jessica found the box heavy. She subconsciously tightened her grip on the box. “For what? Why
would you give me…”
Jessica then stopped short. She realized what Terry was saying. “Lucas told you?”
Terry didn’t ask, because he didn’t want to hear the answer that he didn’t want to hear.
Yet Jessica told him the answer directly. Terry paused. But soon, he recovered without any smile on his face. He
simply nodded. “Yep.”
He responded and turned to leave.
Terry walked slowly as if he was expecting something.
He waited for some time, yet he never heard Jessica’s voice.
