Lie Flat, Sugar Daddy novel Chapter 27

Jensen drove Karina to the side of an artificial lake, and the two of them walked together slowly for a while.

Although it was hot at night, but still there were a lot of people who came down for a walk or to exercise. The lake was near a housing estate, making the scenery here more lively.

“It must be nice to live here, it’s convenient. But my father always said that the air in the countryside is better. What do you think, Jensen?” Karina asked the man beside her.

“Karina, why do you want to be with me? For love? Or because of your father?” Jensen could not help it. He had found that Karina was a innocent girl, so he hoped that he could make things clear with her.

“It’s not because of my father. I, I do want to, I…” Because of her natural reserve, Karina can’t simply tell the man she liked him. As her voice receded, she lowered her head.

Jensen was unable to speak. The best ending he dreamed would be that Karina loved someone else and was also forced to marry him, if so, things would be much easier to solve. Although Zain valued on benefits, but his love towards Karina was real as well. He would not sacrifice his only daughter’s happiness merely for business benefits. Yet now Karina’s answer had disappointed him, he did not believe that Karina really like him. Did she really know him? “Then why do you like me?”

“Well... you’re excellent. No one would refuse a man like you.” Karina answered seriously. She saw that Jensen took out a cigarette and lit it up, and she asked either, “Then what about you? Did you get together with me because of your family?”

Jensen slurred with a cigarette in his mouth, his voice was dull, “Well, actually…”

“Jensen!” Karina was suddenly afraid of hearing the answer. It turned out that the feeling of being rejected by a man she loved was so upset and uncomfortable. She said hurriedly, “I have to fix my makeup.”

Jensen did not pay heed on her.

He stood still where he was puffing on the cigarette. It was getting late, he thought, when Karina came out, they should leave and return their own homes. He did not know if his girl finished dinner tonight. She was so lazy, and usually if he did not go home, she would probably grab a bite. Thinking of this, Jensen took out his phone and called her.

“Hey, what’s up.” Rae laid on the couch, her face full of cucumber slices. Her right hand was holding her phone, while on her left hand she held half a cucumber, ready to eat.

“What do you want to eat, I’ll bring it back for you.” Jensen heard the clear sounds of her munching on something, it looked like she was hungry.

“You’re so kind, Mr Knight!” Once Rae heard this, she immediately sucked up to him and exclaimed. Then, she continued seriously, “Well, some fried chicken, beef pasta, and one more salad, please. I have a pour appetite tonight, so that’s all.”

“…” Jensen was speechless, poor appetite? But the food she wanted was not as less as she described. “Can you change the fried chicken into something else, it’s not healthy I think.”

“Now way, man.” Rae was instantly annoyed and she started shouting at him, “You asked about what I want to eat, and I want them all. If you are not going to buy me chicken and why did you ask!”

“Alright, fine. I’ll go buy them.” Her shouts made Jensen’s temples throb.

“Well, Mr Knight, then I’ll wait for you to come back…” Rae’s tone instantly lowed down to what it used to be.

Jensen smiled as he shook his head, thinking that she must be a transformer.

Jensen who was on the phone did not realize it, but Karina had already come outside. She stood behind him and was looking at him in surprise. As her bag was left on the car, and she was too focused on him and that was why she had forgotten this. Yet she did not expect she would see the other side of Jensen because of this.

Besides being distant, he actually had other emotions.

Comparing to this, the Jensen before her was like a robot. Only towards the person on the other side of the call, did he look like an actual living person, a person with his own emotions. Karina suddenly wanted badly to know who the person on the other side of the call was, what did she look like, how was her personality like, and why Jensen was so nice to her…

Obey to her despite feeling exasperated.

Karina felt shaken. If Jensen had someone he loved, then if she continued to butt in it would seem unkind.

As the two parted, Karina did not let Jensen to send her back, instead she stood by the road waiting for her driver. What made her reconfirm her thought further was that Jensen did not wait until she was fetched to leave, but took her bag out and passed it to her and he immediately left in his car. He must surely be in a hurry to buy supper for the person on the other side of the call. Thinking of this, Karina lowered her head, her entire person looking disappointed. Because she found that she was actually envious of a person that she had never met, she was very envious of the person on the other side of the call!

After a while, the driver came and Karina got on the call. Karina got on the car and found that Zain was there as well. She greeted, “Dad.”

“Why are you unhappy?” Zain asked lovingly.

“Jensen, he…” Karina hesitated and decided to ask directly. “He seems to have a person he likes, dad. I think it’s better that I shouldn’t contact him any further.”

The expression on Zain’s face flashed, he suddenly thought of the woman he had seen downstairs at the Knight Group. He had thought originally that she was a woman that Jensen had a casual affair with. But now even Karina felt that Jensen had someone out there, could it be that Jensen was actually serious about that woman? Zain suddenly became serious, and he asked her, “Honey, tell me, do you like Jensen?”

Karina bit her lip, and after a few seconds, she nodded affirmatively.

Although Jensen was very cold and distant before her, but it did not matter. She had always liked the kind of man that she could rely on. Her dream since she was little was to marry a man that was worth of her respect, and Jensen had happened to fulfil all the wishes as to what she looked in a significant other, no matter as to his personality or his career or his looks.

“Then that’ll do it, “Zain caressed Karina’s hair as he continued lovingly. “Jensen has no right to choose as to his marriage. Now, not only that we needed the Knight family’s help, the Knight family needed us as well. Therefore, the Knight family would not allow him to fool around. Karina, if only you like it then it’s done. You can just enjoy your relationship and I’ll help you to settle the other matters. Further, no one is better suited for Jensen and the Knight family than you at the entire City BJ now, .”

Karina’s originally low mood was finally lifted a bit after hearing this.

“Moreover, if you two had been together for long enough, and my daughter is so pretty and caring, how could he not like you?” Zain said.

“Dad…” Karina exclaimed as she reached over to hug Zain.

Karina was merely being happy, feeling that her confidence had all returned due to her father’s words. But she did not notice a cold expression gradually emerged on Zain’s face.

…

At the apartment.

Rae heard the door open and immediately jumped off the couch running towards the door. As she was about to jump into his arms, she suddenly bent down and took away the bag of takeaway food in his hands and walked over to the couch, opening it to eat. Jensen remained his act of hugging her as he stood at the door. Seeing that her excitement was actually for the takeaway food, he retracted his hand and changed his shoes awkwardly.

“This is so good,” Rae shoveling the food into her mouth and asked casually. “Where did you go for dinner tonight?”

“At the hotel that my client booked,” Jensen walked towards her in his slippers as he answered ambiguously.

He then took off his tie and undid the topmost button of his shirt, and heaved a sigh of relief. Indeed, he was the most relaxed at home. Well, to be more specific, whenever she was around, he felt like he could be himself. Unlike being in front of that Karina, he really did not have the slightest interest. He sat down beside her and noticed that she had already bathed. She was wearing a v necked, spaghetti strapped pyjama dress. Her white skin was exposed to him, and there was a floral scent of body shampoo. He was distracted, as he reached over and went around her waist, pulling her onto him and making her sit on his lap. Seeing that she was eating so happily, Jensen asked, “Share me some.”

Rae held the food container in her left hand, her right hand was oily as she held the fried chicken and took a bite. Hearing this, she passed it over to the man before her. Jensen opened his mouth and took it, and felt strange after he chewed for a while, “Why is it so spicy?” Was it supposed to be like that?

“Maybe!” She felt that it was really a waste if he threw the left chicken wings to the trash can, so she suddenly grabbed the wings and took a bite!

Jensen’s expression became amusing, as he stunned for a few second and did not move.

“Hey, it’s alright. It’s just a little bit spicy, do you have to…” Rae thought that he was overreacting, as she had not finished her sentence the man suddenly kissed her as if he was in heat. He took the opportunity and took away the food container in her hands, pressing her down on the couch. Rae’s both hands were oily and she dare not touch him, she could only hang them in the air allowing him to do whatever he wanted.

She laid on the couch looking at the man who was on top of her, as she panted slightly, “Go away, or I’ll rub it directly on you.”

“Just rub it, since it’s you are the man to wash it as well.” Jensen did not care for her threats as he replied like a boy.

His large hands had already caught her chest accurately and was fondling it, that soft feeling made him unable to resist. His tongue tried hard to chase hers, yet she kept dodging his on purpose like a swimming fish. It made him feel urged, as the force that he was fondling her with became much harder. He wanted badly to be together with her, taking care of her like this way, telling her that he was together by her side.

Forever.

Until not long ago, he thought that being together with her was a very easy thing, if only she did not think about running away. Why would he feel it's not easy anymore just in a few days? Even if she did not run away, there were many people who wanted to force her to leave. Moreover, given her personality, if anyone had offered a proper price she would be obedient and escape from him.

Jensen started feeling scared inside, he was no longer so sure like before.

“Jensen, Jensen…” Rae’s voice rang out softly. She felt quite painful, and she noticed Jensen’s difference.
