Jason couldn't help himself, just realising that no matter what Jessie did now he could control most of her actions. The thought of that made him smile and he couldn't seem to stop. First of all, she would stop playing with fire and putting herself constantly in danger by going after Patricia as she normally did, because she physically couldn't, not anymore. And if she wanted to go out, something he didn't intend on stopping she had to use a car, and he wasn't going to give her one without a driver and a spare bodyguard, how would she venture out on her own now? Impossible. Sweetness, also it was just them in this mansion, well apart from the servants, meaning there would be no interruptions whatsoever, it made him glad. And at first he hated that she cut her hair but he didn't think that way anymore, she looked too cute huffing and puffing in annoyance it made him want to pull her cheeks and kiss them, she was too cute. If he knew all the advantage to this he would have done it much sooner.
After what felt like forever they finally ended the tour and Jessie wasn't as annoyed as she was when they started, not because of anything Jason said or did, because heaven knows his actions lately absolutely, totally confused her. Why did he keep smiling and chuckling to himself? The butler even asked what was so amusing?! Any way the only thing she wanted to do now was sneak off into some corner of this massive three storey mansion and gather her thoughts together, she would take the room the farthest from his. The master bedroom was on the second floor so that was a no go, she would take on of the bedrooms on the third floor.
"I suppose you'd eat before settling down?" Myeong soo asked them and Jessie nodded quickly. She was positively starving.
"Myeong Soo? We'll use the dinning room on the second floor, I'm afraid the main dinner room is far too large for just two of us." Jason stated and the butler bowed before walking away.
"Is he the only employee working here? I didn't see anyone else during the tour." Jessie thought aloud.
"I told them to do their work when we're not around, I don't like seeing strangers in my house. It's uncomfortable, do you need something?" Jason asked.
"No" she shook her head. "I was just wondering, is that why you moved into a penthouse? Instead of living in your family home?"
"Well, one of the reasons, it stopped being a family home after my mom died." He said.
"Oh."
"Come on let's go." He said holding a hand out to her. Jessie narrowed her eyes at him and frowned.
"What's wrong with you?" She asked as she walked past him into the elevator. Jason sighed and walked in after her.
"What do you plan on doing to disguise yourself? Now that you cut your hair." He asked.
Jessie looked up at him, "do you really hate it that much?" She asked.
Jason nodded. She pouted, rubbing her earlobe "I don't think I look that bad." She mumbled.
"This isn't about how you look, it appears you'll look good in everything. But didn't you have to cut it this short?" He frowned. "I don't like it."
"So you don't have a reason? Hmm." She said as she walked out of the elevator. Her jaw dropped when she saw the feast on the table. What was wrong with this people?! How were two mouths supposed to eat all that? The last time she saw so much food was when she was on a set of a traditional drama, and even then most of it was fake.
Jason walked past her and sat down, "aren't you going to sit?"
"You're staff hate me" she said sadly.
"Why? Is there something wrong with the food?" He asked.
"Em." She nodded.
"Uhm... Butler Choi."
"Sir" the butler responded swiftly, he looked at Jessie that was still standing and gawking at the table.
"Miss Yoo Aera?"
"Do you want to die?"
"Heh?" The butler stepped back sending a questioning glance at Jason.
Jason furrowed his brows at her, what was her problem now?
"Don't call me that, ever." She spat.
"Ah... then what should I call you?"
Jessie stared at Jason and sent her a warning glare, which she completely ignored, of course.
"Jessie, Jessie Marin." She smiled sweetly at him.
Jason was up an instant pulling her away from the table, "Are you mad!" He yelled at her. "Why the hell would you do that?! It's like you have a desire for trouble, what's wrong with you? I have no idea the loyalty or discretion of this servants because their all new how can you be so careless?" He scolded her.
"What? Isn't that my name? I refuse to go by Yoo Aera, that stopped being my name ten years ago." She spat back.
"Go in there and tell him your joking!"
Jessie stared into his eyes and he did same, both intimidating each other. But neither backing off until Jessie sighed and smiled at him.
Jason furrowed her brow at his reaction.
"Thank goodness, for a minute there I thought you were someone else." She said.
"What?"
"Well... you can't exactly blame me? You've been acting strange, the whole drive here you didn't lose your temper and your signature scowl was replaced by a smile. Since when are you so vague? I couldn't tell what you were thinking and I made me want to pull out my hair, well the little I still have. Plus you winked at me! Winked." She explained.
Jason scoffed, "so you were testing me in there?"
"Well... I don't know about testing you but I'm happy you reacted the way you did. Don't worry I'll tell butler Choi, that Jessie Marin isn't my real name." She replied, walking past him.
Jason grabbed her arm "do you really hate it when I smiled at you?"
Jessie looked into his eyes and frowned, that look again. What was it? Why couldn't she identify that emotion? Why was she feeling so squeamish and why was her stomach doing somersaults? She didn't like the way she was reacting, it scared her. If this continues then she will really start loving him. Love was a pleasure she couldn't afford right now.
"Yes. I really do, so stop smiling at me, just be who you normally are." She pulled her arm away and walked back into the dinning room.
