章節 63: Hurting Hearts

Jerlina stood near the Jeep and her chest felt heavy. The way Gerard looked at her got imprinted in her heart and his gentle voice that was trembling when he asked her what is wrong with her, hurt her. 

She only then realized something. He must have been shocked to learn that she is married to TJ just like she was when Emma mentioned her wedding with Gerard. He might even be thinking that she married TJ to get back at him.

I don't want him to misunderstand.

Although she had decided that she should have nothing to do with Gerard anymore, after seeing his hurt face, her heart wavered. 

"Shall we leave?" TJ's voice came from behind her.

"Mmm..." She tried to open the door as if it was a doorknob by turning it when it should be pulled.

Jeremy opened the door for her as she appeared absent. 

"Jer, wait...Please, just one minute," Gerard's voice came from behind when she kept her one foot in the car and Jeremy clenched his fists.
