NovelFastChapter 491 It Really Is Quite Charming 18 Pearls Hector heard Jean's loud internal complaint, but his expression remained as calm as ever. He merely pressed his lips together without thinking.
Whenever he was with her, he could always hear the thoughts running through her mind.
Most of the time, was her complaining or grumbling about him.
At first, those thoughts had made him a little unhappy.
No one had ever spoken to him like that before...
Well, not aloud anyway-but she was thinking it. That was enough.
But over time, he got used to it- Her constant mental chatter had started to feel like background music for sleep. If anything, it made him want to sleep even more.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHow could one person have so many thoughts swirling around in their head? It baffled him-and sometimes even amused him.
But strangely, he didn't dislike it.
"I'm going to go find something to read too," Jean said, figuring it didn't make sense to call the way to a library just to admire the view. She should at least pick up a book to blend in with the vibe.
She tossed the words over her shoulder and headed for the bookshelves.
She didn't bother choosing anything too serious-just grabbed a beautifully illustrated comic book that caught her eye.
Meanwhile, Hector had already ordered two drinks and a selection of desserts.
Sitting by the panoramic window, with a good book, a cup of something warm, and the city stretching out below- this was exactly the kind of atmosphere Sky Library was known for.
It really was quite charming.
Jean and Hector sat side by side. Neither of them said a word, simply immersed in their reading.
Their moods slowly unwound, and even the air around them seemed to soften.
This was always how things were whenever they went out together.
No need for conversation, just quiet, easy companionship.
When it was tto go, Hector's driver brought Jean back to the Ginger family estate.
Before they left, Hector had insisted-she stay for dinner.
Naturally, the man had been as generous as ever, treating her to a lavish, expensive meal.

She had planned to head straight to her room, but before she could, Sienna cut her off.
"Back already, Jean?" Sienna hurried toward her, intercepting her path with a smile that clearly meant she had something to say.
Jean gave her a polite smile in return and nodded. "Mm-hmm." "Mom, you've got something on your mind, don't you?" Her grin widened, practically glowing with mischief.
Sienna let out a sheepish laugh, clearly caught. "Well, yes actually," she said, stepping closer and gently grabbing Jean's wrist, her smile still in place. "There's a small gathering next week, and I'd like to bring you along." A gathering? Jean had kept her identity as the Ginger family's daughter a secret all this time.
Which meant she never went to these kinds of high-society events.
It would be far too easy to blow her cover.
And Sienna knew that. So why was she asking this now?
Hearing Jean's inner thoughts, Sienna quickly explained, "It's a more private gathering, so don't worry.. just a few people. That's the only reason I even considered bringing you." Jean frowned. "Who's going to be there?"
Sienna narrowed her eyes playfully, giving her a mysterious smile. "You'll find out when we get there." Oh, great. Now it's a secret mission.
Jean pressed her lips together. But seeing the eager, hopeful lightin Sienna's eyes/she couldn't bear to disappoint her. "Alright, fine," she said, finally nodding. "I'll go with you." Send Gifts 1.9K
