Chapter 117
Let Love Takes Away All This Pain
Chapter 117, I want to kiss her Jackson froze, his mind briefly blank.
When he reacted, Alva was asleep again, but the hand was clinging to his waist.
His heart was beating fast.
It was the first time she held him like that.
Unconscious and trusting.
He looked down at her sleepy face.
Quiet, well-behaved, sensible.
Like a harmless cat.
Lovely.
He couldnât help but reach out and land his hand on her face.
As soon as her fingers touched her face, she frowned sensitively.
Scared, Jackson immediately withdrew his hand, like a thief, and did not dare to move for a while.
But Alva didnât wake up, she was sleeping soundly and wasnât affected by what he just did.
Jackson didnât dare touch her.
But his eyes locked on her, from her forehead to her eyes, eyelashes, nose, lips.
Then, it stopped on her slightly parted lips.
Jacksonâs eyes became hot, and the heartbeat in his chest was about to jump out.
He wanted to kiss her.
Kiss herâ¦
These two words kept repeating in his mind like a repeater, overwhelming his reason.
Jackson lowered his head, his lips moving closer to Alva.
Just as he was about to touch her, she muttered into her ear.
âUriahâ¦â¦â
Jackson, stop.
Uriahâ¦â¦
He didnât know who these two words were before, but now he understands.
Uriah.
This is what they used to call them, right?
The heartbeat returns, the sanity returns.
Jackson sat up straight and looked at the man in his arms.
You still love Uriah, donât you?
The next morning Jackson sent Alva to AK. Before getting off the car, Alva frowned and looked at Jackson. There were a few bloodshot in his eyes, and it seemed that he didnât sleep last night.
âDonât come today at noon, and donât pick me up tonight. Have a good rest in the hotel.â
Jackson raised his lips, âItâs okay.â
Alva was serious. âObedient.â
The concern and worry in her eyes were real.
Even if the person she loves is Uriah, he still has a place in her heart.
âOkay.â
Alva got out of the car and went to work. Jackson watched her go in and didnât start the car until she could no longer be seen.
As soon as he left, a car pulled up and stopped opposite.
The car door opened and Ambrose got down.
He looked at the car driving away in front of him, then looked at AK, whatâs going on, he saw Uriahâs good friend yesterday, and he saw it again today.
Jackson went back to the hotel, packed his bags, checked out, and went to an apartment that a friend had found for him.
From today on, he and Alva live in this apartment.
When you are familiar with this place, then change to another house.
When Alva arrived at the company, she was busy, and she had to come up with a plan by tomorrow.
And she has already calculated, and she can do it tonight.
Ambrose looked inside as she passed the design department, and Alva was working, very seriously.
Yes, a good employee.
He likes it.
At noon, everyone went to the cafeteria to eat, and Alva was still busy.
Her phone rang.
Alva finally got her mind back from work, took her phone, and said, âJackson.â
Itâs Jacksonâs phone.
âAlva, I canât pick you up for lunch at noon, you have to remember to eat.â
âOkay, you have a good rest in the hotel.â
âWell, Iâll pick you up tonight.â
âNo need, Iâll go back by myself.â
âNo, Iâm coming because I have a surprise for you tonight.â
Alva smiled, âYou didnât come to pick me up for dinner this noon to set up a surprise, right?â
âYouâre so smart.â
âYou reallyâ¦â
âLetâs go eat, huh?â
âOkay.â
After hanging up the phone, Alva simply put away the desktop, got up. and went to the cafeteria.
Some people in the cafeteria had already finished eating, but there were still many people.
Alva picked up the food, found an empty seat, wiped the table clean with a tissue, and ate with chopsticks.
But less than five minutes after sitting down, a person sat opposite her.
