"Do I go too far?"
Jackson murmured unconsciously. His eyes fell on her red lips, with a hint of sadness flashing through. His pleasant voice sounded somewhat confused.
He did nothing wrong. How could he be accused rude? Or, in her eyes, everything was too much just because she didn't like him.
"Hester, is it true that you only gave your heart to that person?"
Hester's face was hot under such ruthless questioning. She looked at Jackson with anger, and her eyebrows were tightly wrinkled.
Something was wrong! Everything seemed so strange. Or since the moment he came in, he had been acting strangely.
"What's wrong with you? Has something happened?"
"Don't talk to me in such a caring tone!"
A trace of pain flashed through Jackson's eyes. He let go of her hand. He felt his temples throbbing and his body trembling slightly as if he was trying hard to suppress some kind of mood.
He knew clearly that she didn't like him, but he couldn't help thinking too much when she was staring intently.
"Since you don't like me, don't do anything that may be misunderstood!"
Hester was shocked by his sudden fierce emotion. She was at her place, stunned, looking at Jackson whose eyes gradually dimed. She thought she would have a new friend, but what should she do right now? Things seemed to have gotten worse!
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault. Please forgive me! I haven't made friends since childhood, so I don't know how to control the distance between the two. If I cause you any trouble, please forgive me!
I will move out today. I am so sorry to bother you for so long."
Looking at Hester, Jackson smiled. 'Very good! In this world, if someone claims to be innocent, I am afraid that no one dares to call the number one when she recognizes the number two!' he thought.
"Hester, well done!"
Hester hid the pain in her eyes and wrung her hands t
time."
Murmured Jackson, with a wry smile at the corners of his mouth. He had been abnormal since he was a little boy... To take over the family business and prepare for it, he was stuffed with a lot of day and night.
The blood all over his hand had become so insignificant to him that he was even scared of himself.
Hester was sad at his leaving figure, but she didn't know what to say. She didn't know how to respond to what Jackson had done, nor did she know how to refuse him.
Thinking of the burn on his back, she felt very sad.
"It seems that I have to leave as soon as possible!"
Then she put her hand on the handle, but she failed to open it. She frowned and pinched it hard, but it didn't work!
"Jackson! Open the door!"
It was quiet outside. Hester's voice was echoing in the large room, but no one responded. The door was closed, dividing her from the outside into two different worlds.
"Jackson! Open the door right now!"
Hester did not give up. She pressed her ear against the door and carefully observed the sound outside. She only hoped that he would be able to come and let her leave.
"Hester, I won't let you leave. It's useless. Since I have a different feeling for you, I won't let you leave so easily!"
