31 Jealous

As Rose sat on the sofa, she was mesmerized by the view outside. She can see a river that divides the city between the business district and the district where her campus and her homes are located.

It was rare for her to come to this business district during her stay in this city. And this is the first time she sees this city from a tall building. The view is so stunning. She wanted to see how it looked from up here at night.

"What do you want to drink, Rose?" Suddenly Evan asks her.

Rose immediately looks at Evan. He was sitting on a single sofa. He looks handsome, even though he only wears his gray slim fit shirt and black trousers. His charisma was no joke. Her fragile heart beat faster, and her hungry eyes could not turn away from his deep blue eyes.

"H-Hot coffee. Thank you, Evan…." She needs caffeine to make her focus so as not to be lulled by his charm. Gosh Rose!!

Evan took a landline phone from the side table. He gave orders to someone.

"Evan, I like your office. What else is the scenery out there..." Rose said after seeing Evan hang up the phone.

"Well, I rarely come to this office, don't have much time. I mostly work from my home office…." Apart from that, he is more comfortable working in his quiet home. He is also too lazy to spend 30 minutes driving to the business street. What more if he has to come here during rush hour, the traffic is hefty. He didn't like it.

"I thought you came here every day..."

Rose suddenly remembered. Earlier she saw a pretty secretary with bobbed hair outside. When she first saw the woman, she felt a weird feeling; Scared, insecure about losing something. That woman looked like a threat in her eyes.

"The location of this office is quite far from my house. I don't like to waste my time coming here when I can do my work from home..." Evan smiles, looking at her before he continues. "But, I thought from now on, I will work from here because my pretty girlfriend will accompany me…."

Rose chuckled when she saw his alluring-looking smile.

"Evan! I never said that. I just complimented that your office was nice! That's it!" When Rose saw him laughing, she continued, "But, if you want me to come here, that's not a bad idea either. I love it…."

Evan's eyes beamed, looking at her. He was so happy to hear what his girlfriend said.

"I forgot… I have something for you, Rose!" Evan stood from his seat and walked toward his desk.

At the same time, the female secretary came in carrying a tray with two white cups and cake on it.

Rose had an awkward feeling, not knowing which way to look when she realized this female secretary was wearing such a tight outfit. The dress was so tight that it seemed she wanted to flirt with her body with anyone who saw her.

But in Rose's eyes, she looks like a slut. How could this kind of woman work in this place?

She could guess that this woman was purposely dressed like this to attract Evan's attention. She was confused about what to do. Did she just let it go or do something?

Once again, she silently stole a glance at the woman.

Her black skirt is too tight. She can see her curves clearly. Her skirt length is just above her knee, and a few inches are split in her right thigh. Her pale blue shirt is also too tight as if to tell everyone her bra size.

Suddenly her chest tightens when memories of Dustin cheating on her in her past life rise in her mind.

And then her mind filled with stupid questions...

Why did Evan have such a seductive female secretary in his office?

Was Evan the same as Dustin?

Why does Evan keep this sexy secretary by his side?

What is their real relationship?

Evan will never cheat behind my back, right?

Gosh!! Can I spell my mind not to think much about it?

Damn it, Rose!

Are you feeling Jealous now!?

Rose was stunned.

Indeed! Her mind and heart could prove that she was jealous of this woman.

She tries to avoid looking at the sexy female secretary. But her heart started to feel uneasy when she saw the woman approaching Evan, who was still looking for something at his desk.

She couldn't help but steal a glance.

However, she really regretted looking in Evan's desk direction. Because she could clearly see that the woman was trying to flirt with Evan.

Without realizing it, her hands clenched into fists in anger.

Trying to distract herself, Rose opened her laptop. She opened her thesis, which Evan had corrected. But after reading a few lines, her mind, once again, was distracted by her peculiar thoughts. What if, in this life, Evan is cheating on her?

"What are you doing?"

Rose is surprised when she hears Evan's voice.

She quickly turned to look. She was utterly shocked that Evan's face was next to her while his eyes stared at the computer screen on her lap. His face was so close to hers that her nose almost hit his cheek. Rose is motionless, too afraid to move or breathe.

Because if Evan moved to see her even for a bit, their lips would definitely meet.

Slowly Rose pulled her head away from him while trying to calm her chaotic heartbeat.

"E-Evan… is your business done?" Rose awkwardly asked when she saw Evan now standing straight. His hands are in his pocket. His eyes stared at her with a warm smile framing his god-like face.

Rose can't help but feel betrayed by her heart. How could she fall for him this fast?

She quickly shifted her gaze elsewhere, and she realized only the two of them were in the room. The sexy secretary who made her feel jealous was nowhere to be seen.

She felt a little bit relieved. However, the worry of Evan cheating on her was still lingering in her deep mind.
