Come With Me novel Chapter 177

Putting his finger on the hanging up key, Rogelio didn't press it immediately. Instead, he said to Robbie, "I will let mom accept Jasmine, but it has nothing to do with you."

Robbie chuckled, "Do you want to compete with me for this women?"

Their conversation made me nervous and my heart beat faster. I suddenly felt a little scared, but I didn't know what I was afraid of.

"She is not your woman. How can you say that I compete with you?"

After saying that, Rogelio hung up Robbie's phone.

I lowered my eyes and avoided eye contact with Rogelio on purpose. I was not sure what Rogelio meant.

Rogelio looked at me. I held the knife and fork in my hand unnaturally.

After a few seconds of silence, Rogelio said, "Jasmine, I have something to tell you, but I know it shouldn't be now. I need a little time, but not too long. Are you willing to wait for me?"

I was a person who doesn't have confidence in myself. I didn't dare to think deep about the meaning of what Rogelio said.

"If you have anything to say, just tell me when you want to say."

Rogelio smiled to me, "I'm very happy today. With you by my side, I always feel relaxed."

Looking at the food on my plate, Rogelio said, "You didn't eat much tonight. This is not to your taste? It doesn't matter. Let's go to another place tomorrow. "

"Tomorrow?"

"Yes, tomorrow, you heard it. Robbie won't arrange anything else for you. You can come to the company tomorrow as usual. I usually arrive at the company at half past eight. I hope you won't come too late."

Tonight, there was obviously a trace of domineering in Rogelio's tone. His tone was like an employee under his opponent, with a hint of order, which was not at all a negotiation.

Seeing that I didn't nod immediately, Rogelio raised his eyebrows and asked, "is there a problem?"

I shook my head numbly, "No."

Taking a look at his watch, Rogelio said, "It's getting late. It's not good for a woman to sleep too late. I'll drive you back. You can go to bed after you get home."

I looked at him and nodded. "Okay."

Rogelio stood up like a gentleman and pulled the chair for me.

On the way home, I followed Rogelio and he would occasionally turn around to look at me. He smiled, but he didn't say much.

I felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Rogelio, but I often looked at him unconsciously. He seemed to be able to feel my gaze, and the corners of his mouth would slightly raise.

When we arrived at the door, I said to Rogelio, "I'm here. Thank you for sending me back. I'm going in."

Looking at me gently, Rogelio pursed his lips and nodded with a smile. "Go ahead. I'll watch you go in."

When I turned around, I could still feel the gaze of Rogelio, which made me seem to walk unnaturally. But I didn't dare to look back, because I didn't know how to face this sudden intimacy.

I opened the door and walked into the house, but I didn't look back. The moment I closed the door, I took a deep breath and leaned against the door until I heard the car driving away.

"Jasmine, what are you doing? Why are you standing there? Why don't you come in? Have you eaten yet? "

Xenia went downstairs. Her hair was a little messy in her home wear. It seemed that she had just woken up.

I didn't answer Xenia's question. Instead, I walked to the fridge and took a bottle of soda from it.

"You don't like cold water, do you? What's wrong with you today? "

I took a big sip, but I still felt hot all over my body. There was a restless emotion that made me unable to choose to sit quietly.

I pursed my lips and hesitated for a while. Then I said to Xenia, "Rogelio invited me to Western food today."

Xenia walked two steps faster and stood in front of me. She looked at me with a snicker and said, "You just told me that you wanted to choose him, and then went out for dinner with Rogelio. You did it so fast!"

I'm not in the mood to laugh like Xenia. I chose to tell her at this moment just because I wanted her to give me an idea and analyze for me.

"It was Rogelio who took the initiative to bring it up. He told me at dinner today that after he woke up, he had forgotten his feelings to Michelle in the past. He tried hard to get back to the past, but after trying for so long, he just became more and more indifferent."

With her eyes wide open, Xenia asked, "did he really say that to you?"

I nodded, "yes, he told me that."

"Then what else did he say to you?"

"He also asked me if I would think he was a heartless man. I said no, he looked very happy."

Pursing her lips, Xenia tried hard not to laugh.

"Then what else did he say to you?"

"He also said that he wanted to say something to me, but it was not appropriate to say it now. He needed some time and asked me if I could wait."

I looked at Xenia nervously. My hand holding the bottle tightened unconsciously, and the bottle made a harsh squeezing sound.

Looking at me with a smile, Xenia asked, "What do you think? What do you think he wants to say to you? "

I shook my head. "I don't know, but I don't know why I'm always very nervous and I cannot calm down. Xenia, what's wrong with me?"

Xenia grabbed the water from my hand and put it on the table casually. "Silly girl, are you really stupid? Or are you overwhelmed by the happiness that comes too fast? He is confessing his love to you. Can't you really not understand? "

"I don't know. I don't think so. He has no reason to like me."

I still pressed my fingers on the table nervously.

"Why are you so nervous? Isn't it a good thing? You should be happy. "

Xenia sighed for my dullness.

"Why should he tell you that he doesn't like Michelle? It doesn't make sense. Why didn't he tell me or Rosie? He said he had something to tell you. It's not appropriate now. It's because he hasn't clarify the relationship with Michelle, so he didn't tell you directly. He likes you and wants you to be his girlfriend. From this point of view, Rogelio is very smart, scheming, but also has his principle."

Xenia walked behind me and pushed me upstairs. "In my opinion, you should think carefully about how to reply to him when he confessed his love to you. Should you be reserved and think about it again, or should you just agree to Rogelio directly, or should you consider whether you really like him and choose to refuse him euphemistically?"

I stopped my steps forcibly and turned to look at Xenia. "Xenia, do you really think that Rogelio might like me?"

"I'm sure. I'm sure. In fact, every time I saw Rogelio before, I felt that the way he looked at you was different." said Xenia affirmatively.
