Chapter 122
Trevor was so mad that he gripped his own hand behind his back, and his breath quickened.
He scoffed in his mind, Old? Isn'tthis just about age? Who doesn't know how to act younger? Did she think
I only have a mature side?
Trevor turned and walked into the house. "Martin, go get me the best stylist. I want to look younger."
"Mr. Gulliford, you're only a little over 30. That's not old," Martin said.
"I want to look 18! Get it? Like those students." Trevor frowned. If not for his height, he even wanted to transform into Bennett.
Maybe if he became Bennett, Jessica would change her attitude toward him.
"Yes, sir." Martin did not dare to counter and left.
Standing up, Trevor walked to the window and saw how Jessica cared for Bennett. He felt extremely annoyed and thought, "No, I must get her back from that kid!"
Although Bennett did not want Jessica to see him in that light, he did not dislike her. Bennett even prescribed medicine for her.
It was a fact that Jessica adored him. She even took the initiative to suggest cuddling him to sleep.
"No!" Trevor rejected the suggestion while walking over with a dark expression before Bennett could answer.
Meanwhile, Jessica felt helpless since the question was not directed at Trevor and pursed her lips secretly.
Bennett was also startled and turned his head to look at his father, then pointed at the older with his chubby little hands. "You can cuddle him. I'm not used to sleeping with others." After that, Bennett left. It was not that he was not used to sleeping with others. In the past, Bennett happily shared a bed with his other siblings too.
He was just not used to sleeping together with a stranger.
"That's fine with me." Trevor nodded seriously. He was acting completely different from his usual self.
Jessica felt helpless as she thought, "What's fine with that? Are you kidding me?"
"I apologize, Mr. Gulliford. I have to go home today since I can't be staying here forever," she said.
"No. Before you recover, you must stay in the Gulliford residence." Trevor frowned. This was the only method he could make her stay. Besides, he was really worried about her physical condition.
"Mr. Gulliford, is this a house arrest?" Jessica started to panic.
"Whatever you say." Trevor gave up reasoning with her. He just wanted to keep her there and look at her every second of the day.
When she saw the determination in his eyes, Jessica started to get angry.
"In that case, I resign!" She frowned.
Previously, she endured it due to his identity, but at this moment, her emotions and tone pushed their conflict to the climax.
She could not be kept in the Gulliford residence forever, so she would resign.
"You-" Trevor held his breath and choked on his words.
There was never an instance he was powerless against a woman. Jessica was the only exception.
"Mr. Gulliford, I don't know what
you're trying to do, but I'm not your pet. The public is still talking about me. They're discussing how I murdered someone and how I'm injured I have many private matters to deal with. You can't turn the Gulliford residence into jail and keep me locked forever!" Jessica's expression was cold.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Trevor wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat, and he could not utter a single word.
Jessica had thought of the Gulliford residence as a jail.
"You can go. Martin will take you. If anything happens, call me immediately." In the end, he relented. Trevor wanted to keep her by his side forever. However, there were times when she would drift further the more he tried to.
Hence, it would be better for him to let her go and roam outside freely for now. It was like playing with a
kite.
"Thank you for your understanding."
