My Paranoid Lover (Lance Mason)
Chapter 49

Chapter 49 Secret Lover?

I actually regret after speaking. I saw Lance's schedule, he would be heading to England in a few weeks time, I should have brought this up when he is preparing to fly. not now. He would have even thought to bring me there for business........

Now that I brought it up so early, it felt a little bit on purpose.

I looked at his observing eyes and forced a smile: "If you're not willing to spend this money on me, then fine."

Then I tried to leave him but he pressed onto my waist, making sure my head was still on his chest. "You said you don't mind being my secret love affair?"

He stared at me with a strange look, I didn't know what was going on in his mind at this moment.

He must have believed that I said I would try to like him....... Maybe he thought I don't mind selling myself to him.

Tlaughed dryly and said: "I was kidding, if you got married and still wouldn't let me go, of course I would still be your secret lover no matter if I want it or not."

"Hm true. Jennie, now I realized how adaptive you are, you know your own place." II wasn't sure if he was really complimenting me or being sarcastic.

He played with my hair, combing his fingers between my hairs. "I'll be heading to England in a few weeks, if you want, you can follow me!"

Lance agreed to bring me there too, I felt a little bit excited, like I'm one step nearer to improvements.

But what I didn't know is, there's a bigger storm waiting for me at the back.

Lance's hands played with my hair, and slowly moved to my face, then moved downward. What the hell was he thinking? I just came back from the hospital, was he trying to send me to hell? "Where's your necklace? Why aren't you wearing it?" Lance touched my neck, not happy.

I remembered that I took it off this morning, he just noticed it now. Although the necklace is very beautiful, but it was really hard for me to like it.

"The necklace is too expensive, I've never seen anything so expensive, I was afraid that I might lost it so I kept it." I tried to explain.

Lance rolled his eyes. "What a country girl. It's just a necklace, how expensive can it be? Put it on tomorrow."

I nodded my head. "Okay, next time, give me

more luxurious gifts, like branded bags or houses or cars, then I can become those elegant women." Of course if Lance Mason gifts me those stuff I would want it, it can be changed to money! Lance stared at me speechlessly, he must have thought I'm no different than those women out there, gold-digger.

When I woke up the next day, there was nobody beside me already. He must have gotten up long time ago, since I couldn't feel any warmth on the sheets.

I picked up my phone. I was near 9am so I got

up and washed up. I went downstairs and met the butler. "Mr Mason is jogging outside, can Ms Gomez call him back for breakfast?" he asked, very responsible man.

I said okay.

There's a huge man-made lake outside the mansion, I saw Lance jogging around the lake. I walked out and towards him. I yelled: "Lance Mason, stop jogging, time for breakfast!"

Under the morning sunlight, Lance smiled at me through the

slight fog and nodded. He jogged towards me, out of breathe and sweating like there's no tomorrow. I took out a packet of tissue papers from my pocket and handed it to him. He didn't take it, so I tip- toed and helped him wipe away the sweat on his forehead, gently patting his face. He didn't move away, allowing me to help him.

"See how wet you are, did you run a lot?" I asked, while still wiping his sweat.

Lance lowered his head a little more, giving me more access of his sweaty head and neck. His voice was hoarse: "Yeah, I jogged 12 rounds, I wanted to jog more but you're here. When we're free, you come w too weak, always heading to the hospital."

My body? Weak? Who made me go to the hospital again and again? But I didn't say anything, I just gave him a slight smile. "Alright, sure."

Then, Lance and I headed back to the mansion, with his hand on my waist.

After breakfast I accompanied him to the mall.

I thought he was going to bring me back to Denmark, since tomorrow will be New Year's Eve.

"What do you need? Oh wait, the family would have bought everything, don't worry about it." I said to Lance, who was driving.

"What do I need to buy? Can't I get other stuff in the mall?" he asked.

When we reached the mall, Lance hold my hands and brought me to luxurious clothing stores. Seems like what I said last night worked, he's here to buy me clothes.

Well, he had his own explanation for that: "What you always wear is a disgrace to the Mason's Family, how can you wear that to celebrate New Year's? I'm buying you new clothes so you can wear it during the family gathering."

Theld his arms in mine and nodded: "Thank you, brother!"

Lance stopped in his tracks and gave me a very weird look. "Jennie Gomez, don't you think you're over-acting?"
