Chapter 47 How Lovely He Was When He Took It Personally
After taking a shower, Jocelyn went downstairs and brought over two dinners in passing, putting one of them on his bedside and asking, "Mr. Austin, look what this is. Your mother had dinner prepared for you, and I brought it up. Do you want some?"
"No."
Calvin leaned over the bed and concentrated on playing the game, not even raising his eyes, and his tone was gloomy.
Was he so sulky that he even refused to eat?
Was he angry enough and not even hungry anymore?
Jocelyn was scornful of him inwardly but said nothing at all. She brought her dinner to the coffee table next to her, sat down on the sofa, and said, "Wow... Tonight's dinner is delicious! I just smell it, and my mouth is watering! The cooks in the Austin family have great culinary skills."
"..." Calvin didn't bother to talk to her but thought in his heart the chefs indeed had great culinary skills.
The chefs in the Austin family were some of the best he had hired from all over the world. Of course, their cooking tasted the best!
An idiot like her was lucky to have such a delicious meal!
Jocelyn started to gorge herself on the food. She muttered as she ate, "Wow, wow, wow. It's so delicious! Mr. Austin, are you sure you're not going to try it? It's really delicious! The oatmeal is sparkling like pearls, fragrant and glutinous. And the steak is fatty but not heavy. It just melts in my
mouth, and its flesh is quite delicious and exquisite. Oh, even the vegetables look like works of art. Well, You're gonna regret this if you don't eat it!"
"..."
He had already said he would not eat, but she was still babbling away.
What a noisy woman!
Calvin was so distracted by her noise that he simply turned his back to her, playing it cool and looking entirely inaccessible.
Seeing Calvin like this, Jocelyn couldn't help but laugh. She suddenly felt that she and Calvin must have gotten their genders wrong.
Why did she look like a man who was unceremonious and unstrained, while he looked like a female doormat?
Jocelyn finished her meal alone and packed her trays to leave. "Mr. Austin, I've finished my dinner. Are you not going to have dinner? Don't waste the food! It takes a lot of effort for farmers to grow food! Haven't you heard of the proverb that farmers face difficult conditions to provide food, and the food should be cherished..."
"Get out!"
He was so annoyed by her noise! Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
This time Calvin had zero patience and flared up, throwing the pillow directly at her, but fortunately, Jocelyn caught it.
He was actually still mad.
She just forgot it and stopped messing with this overbearing man!
Jocelyn just made stupid faces at him and left the room with her own trays. Calvin's dinner was still on his nightstand.
With the sound of the door closing behind him, Calvin finally turned around and made sure Jocelyn was sensitive enough to get out. Then he got out of his bed.
He was no longer upset and was in a better mood. Looking at the food Jocelyn was raving about on the bedside table, he was tempted to try it.
Calvin picked up a scoop and tasted a bite of oatmeal. It was really fragrant and glutinous, and then he tasted the dish, which was indeed very delicious.
He felt strange. The chefs were still the same as before, and the meals were still the same ones he always ate. But why did he suddenly feel that the food today was much better than usual?
When Jocelyn returned from taking out the trays, she saw Calvin still playing games on the bed.
When she glanced at the trays on the bedside table, she was surprised to find that all the food had been eaten, and even the soup had been drained.
Well, didn't he just tell her that he refused to eat?
What was wrong with him now?
The plates were as clear as if they were licked by a dog!
Jocelyn really wanted to roll her eyes. She suddenly thought of an old saying that it was better to believe in ghosts than to believe what men said. It seemed that this saying was really true!
Jocelyn silently gathered the trays and was ready to take them out before returning to rest. Calvin said gloomily, " "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Jocelyn froze and gave him a puzzled look. "Say what?"
Well, did she even forget about the 24 men?
Calvin sat up cross-legged, his dark eyes staring at her sullenly, waiting for her to confess.
Unfortunately, Jocelyn had already forgotten all about it and had no idea what he was talking about.
"There are 23 men! I need you to tell me honestly who they are. I'll lay my hands on you if you can't tell who the 23 men are."
Didn't she like to make up stories?
He wanted to see how she could do it.
Jocelyn looked at his angry face, and after several seconds of silence, she wondered if he was still angry about her lie.
He minded that she had dated 23 guys before, didn't he?
Calvin was so cute when he took it personally!
Jocelyn wasn't going to tease him anymore and explained with a smile, "Oh, Mr. Austin, I'm actually joking. I haven't dated those 23 guys. I've ever dated only Ernest. And Todd and I have always been best friends. I don't have a boyfriend other than you right now. You're the only man for me."
Was he the one man for her?
She used the word too subtly, which soothed Calvin's raging heart. And he was not very mad.
With that icy look on his face, Calvin was quite happy in his heart. But he was so proud that he did not show it at all, his face remaining brooding.
Even though she confessed, he still had to test her to see if she really wanted to be with him.
"Forget about it. However, you lied to me, and that was actually breaking the agreement. I will ask Marcus to put you up in a house downtown tomorrow."
Jocelyn was surprised and asked, "Do you want me to move out? And are we going to live separately?"
"That's right."
Calvin's dark, cold eyes fell on her. He wanted to see if she was going to beg him.
Jocelyn was utterly speechless. Moving her out now would put her in danger.
Ernest was not going to let her go!
For the sake of her own safety, Jocelyn decided that she couldn't leave the Austin family after thinking about it. She had to stay here for a while.
"Mr. Austin, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to live out here. We've just been married for a few days. If we live apart, it's not gonna be good for Sean's development. Sean has taken a long time to accept me. Besides, how will you manage your mother if I leave? How do you think she'll feel if she finds out we're separated?"
In fact, what Jocelyn wanted to say was that there was no way he was gonna kick her out now when the black-hearted bastard hadn't given her $12 million yet!
If he wanted to kick her out, he should give her the money!
"You don't have to worry about that."
She was quite considerate to thinking of Sean and Calvin's mother.
Well, it seemed that she was quite sincere with him.
With that in mind, Calvin felt that marrying Jocelyn was the absolute right choice. She should be a family woman.
If Calvin had known that Jocelyn was only interested in the 12 million dollars, he would have been furious.
