Chapter 378 - Any Man (2/2)
''I didn't leave. Does that means I have feelings for you?” Mia smiled at him, it was a sarcastic smile, ''You fell so hard for me that you are finding excuses to make yourself believe that I love you as well? It's pathetic.''
His grip on her waist loosened.
''It should have ended as a one-night thing but we clicked so I stayed with you,” Mia stepped back from him, ''But do you think you are expecting more from me?” She asked.
Han Jian Yu glanced at her blankly, ''So, you would do all this for any man you would come across?”
''Any man, trust me,'' Mia nodded, ''Any man I like or I prefer, I would do this for them. Caring for them and from staying with them to sleeping with them.''
There was a moment of silence between them. She did not get her eyes off him and he held her gaze as well. Her hazel eyes were clear, there was no hint of lie in her eyes. One would not be able to differentiate whether she was telling the truth or manipulating a person with her faked words.
''Get out,'' Han Jian Yu said, his voice was low.
Mia picked up her clutch and her phone from the coffee table, ''Sure thing.''
The urge to control her powers snapped and as she reached the door, she heard the distant voice in his mind, 'Please don't go….'
Her palm which was resting on the doorknob paused and she closed her eyes, ”It was nice meeting you,'' She said nonchalantly and sealed her powers before stepping out of the place.
'Bang'
As the door closed, Han Jian Yu stood rooted to his spot looking at the closed door with a glint of hope in his eyes. But with each passing second, the hope died down.
She, never came back.
He closed his eyes and his finger curled into a fist, a hint of a mocking smile appeared on his face. Did he expect her to come back? He asked himself.
He did. He expected her to not leave in the first place.
He was probably waiting for some words like 'No, I didn't mean what I said' or 'I was in a bad mood so spoke nonsense' or 'I don't like you now but we can get to know each other' or perhaps 'I do have some feelings for you'…
He had expected such replies from her when he finally decided to lay his heart bare in front of her but her 'I would do this for any man. Caring for them, staying with them and sleeping with them' came out of nowhere, hitting him hard.
There was a restlessness that he felt in his heart, which he was unable to explain or bear. She left.. The thought of it fazed him more than he ever expected.
