Chapter 103
Jason looked at Eleanor, whose face was cold as ice, and he suddenly got the feeling that she was like
a hedgehog
As soon as he got close, she would stab him with all her spikes, making him not dare to take another
step forward.
Feeling a bit defeated, he said, “I don’t need you to beg me or please me. As long as you’re okay, that’s
all that matters.
Eleanor had been prepared for a big fight with him, but she didn’t expect him to say that.
She stared at Jason, who gave her a small smile, which was simple and clean, without any schemes..
It seemed like he was just genuinely concerned about her condition and asked a few more questions
about it.
Jason turned around, picked up the plate of food on the table, and handed it to Eleanor, “Eat something
first.”

“Ms. Shultz?”
Jason called her, and Eleanor slowly raised her head to look at him.
Her eyes were filled with tears, showing an incredibly distant expression. Seeing her like this, Jason’s
heart suddenly clenched uncontrollably.
It was as if he had done something wrong to her that made him feel extremely guilty and nervous.
He was about to speak, but she cut him off, “If all you care about is my well–being now, then why did
you treat me like that five years ago?”
Eleanor had no intention of bringing up the past, but his words just touched her heart. She really
couldn’t understand why he had tried to kill her before, but now all he acted as if he cared.
What kind of mindset drove person to say something contradictory like that?
After being silent for a few seconds, Jason’s face showed a hint of guilt.
Five years ago, he had just lost his memory and was unfamiliar with everything. Eleanor came to find
him every day, explaining things over and over, which annoyed him. Plus the information he found out
about her made him think she had ulterior motives. So, he ordered the security guards to throw her out
when she was still kneeling at the door.
It was the worst thing he had done to Eleanor, and he was still somewhat guilty about it.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to have people kick you out on purpose. I just found you annoying, so…”
Jason felt embarrassed to continue. That incident was indeed a bit inappropriate on his part.
Even if Eleanor had ulterior motives at the time, it wasn’t gentlemanly for him to order several men to
carry her out.
Eleanor wanted to know why he had tried to kill her, but Jason was talking about something else.
To Eleanor, he probably didn’t want to admit what he had done in the past, which was why he brought
up another issue,
Eleanor didn’t ask any further questions. It was pointless to ask someone who didn’t want to take
responsibility for their actions.

Her silence confused Jason.
He had apologized to her already when she picked him up at the airport, but she still hated him like
before. Now, he apologized again, yet she didn’t have much reaction.
Could it be that the incident she was referring to wasn’t this one?
However, he only did this one thing and wasn’t behind anything else that would hurt her
Jason couldn’t figure it out and wanted to ask more, but Eleanor calmly said, “Mr. Clowers, could you
please take me back? Thank you.”
She didn’t have the right to ask Jason to take her home, but she couldn’t move her legs and needed his
help.
Otherwise, she would have to stay in his villa until her legs recovered.
But she didn’t want to be with Jason.
Her coldness and distance made Jason frown slightly.
“Really, I’m sorry for the inconvenience, Mr. Clowers.” As if she was afraid he wouldn’t agree, Eleanor
added.
Seeing how eager she was to leave, Jason didn’t force her to stay.
He handed her the plate of food, “Eat your breakfast first, and then I’ll take you back.”
Eleanor didn’t really have an appetite, but since he agreed to take her back, she obediently took the
plate.
