Jealous?

The hot day at Mary Ruth's personality school which no one could access became even hotter for Crystal, who had just run down from Virgo's car, Crystal was almost late for school because she was too late in the beauty of the Thames. Luckily Crystal saw the time on her cellphone so she could ask Virgo to keep his promise to take her back to school.

"I'm five minutes late," Crystal said hoarsely. "Alonso couldn't have come home without waiting for me, could he?" Cold sweat immediately flowed from Crystal's forehead.

Like a thief caught by the owner of the house, Crystal was really very nervous and panicked at this time. Crystal's neck was choked with guilt, Crystal was afraid to disappoint Roman West. Crystal couldn't imagine how disappointed the kind man would be if he found out what she had done with Virgo today, Roman West didn't know about the deal she made with Reagan. Roman West did not know that she and Reagan were married because of a mutually beneficial agreement.

"Crys…"

"Aahhh…."

Crystal shrieked loudly when someone suddenly touched her shoulder from behind.

"Hey it's me, what are you doing?" Crystal's scream made Reagan immediately grip Crystal's shoulders tightly. "What's wrong with you?"

Crystal blinked her eyes, trying to see the figure of the man in front of her more clearly. "R-Reagan.."

"Yeah, it's me."

Unknowingly Crystal cried, for the first time since her meeting with Reagan in Melbourne Crystal felt very relieved to be able to meet Reagan at this time. There was an immense sense of relief welling up in her chest to see Reagan before her eyes.

Reagan, who was surprised to see Crystal shed tears, strengthened his grip on Crystal's shoulders. "What's wrong with you, did someone hurt you at school? What's the wound on your leg…"

"Go home."

"Eh."

"Let's go home Reagan," Crystal said again, fortunately Reagan was standing right in front of Crystal otherwise it was certain he would not be able to hear what Crystal was saying at this time.

Without saying yes to Crystal's invitation, Reagan immediately grabbed Crystal's hand and led her out of school. Reagan used his left hand to hold the top of the car as Crystal got into the car. Reagan was worried that Crystal's head would hit the hard part of the car if he didn't do something like that. Seeing Crystal suddenly crying made Reagan sure that Crystal was fine.

After seeing Reagan and Crystal sitting properly, Jarvis immediately took the metallic white car away from school and because he was too focused on Crystal, who suddenly cried, neither Jarvis nor Reagan realized that the car they were riding in was intersecting with Virgo's car. Virgo immediately left as soon as he took Crystal to school, but when he had been driving the car for nearly ten minutes, Virgo suddenly realized that Crystal had left her antibiotic medication in the car, so Virgo immediately turned his car towards school to return the drug to Crystal.

"Does the wound on your leg hurt a lot?" Unable to bear seeing Crystal continue to be silent, Reagan finally repeated his question.

She shook her head. "Not."

"If not then why are you crying?" Reagan asked again. "Show me the wound on your leg, I want to make sure that you are all right."

"No need Reagan." Crystal screamed in panic, using both hands Crystal held Reagan's hand that wanted to touch her leg. "My leg has been treated by the doctor."

Reagan raised an eyebrow. "Have you been treated by a doctor?"

"Yes."

"Show me then," Reagan said stubbornly. "Until I see it in person I won't believe it."

"Reagan…"

"If you can't show it then we're going to the hospital right now," Reagan added quickly.

Crystal, who panicked then lifted her left leg up slightly, showing Reagan the gauze that was currently covering the wound on both heels. Seeing the gauze covering Crystal's injured heel, Reagan looked relieved and calm, but that calm immediately turned into tension when Reagan suddenly remembered something.

"You went to the hospital alone?" Reagan asked quietly.

"Clinic, you go to a small clinic not far from school," Crystal lied. Sorry Reagan.

"Isn't there anyone willing to accompany you?"

"I just came back after being absent for two weeks and no one wants to be friends with me, that's why I went alone," Crystal replied again, knitting lies, even though some of Crystal's words were true but still she was making up another lie to answer Reagan's curiosity.

Reagan cleared his throat. "In a week or two you will definitely have friends, don't worry."

"Hopefully," Crystal said softly.

From the driver's seat Jarvis chuckled. "You really are like a real husband and wife, I'm really touched." Jarvis ruined the mood!!

"Jarvis!!" snapped Reagan loudly. "Don't talk nonsense."

Jarvis smiled again. "Sorry."

"You better focus on the street and don't mind the two of us, you are very much like gossipy ladies who like to eavesdrop on other people's conversations," Reagan said back in panic, calling a normal married couple like couples out there by Jarvis made him uncomfortable. There was an uneasy feeling that tickled his heart at this time.

Jarvis, who knew Reagan inside and out very well, looked very happy to see the expression Reagan gave, it seemed his guess was right. Reagan was already beginning to drift in a river of his own making. But inside, Jarvis felt happy because his best friend, who was so stubborn, could finally feel the vibrations of love again after the dark incident that happened to him ten years ago. The dark events that made Reagan decide to eliminate love in every relationship he is currently in with his women, the relationships that Reagan has had with his former lovers are nothing more than a mutually beneficial relationship. Reagan needed a place to vent his male desires and the women needed Reagan as a source of money, a barter relationship that both parties agreed to without involving any feelings in it.

And because of that relationship, Reagan finally decided not to marry. Reagan, who felt that he could get any woman to warm his bed, eliminated the word marriage in his life dictionary until suddenly his uncle started harassing him a year ago.

"Looks like Ariel has started busy," said Jarvis quietly not long after he stopped his car beside the pool.

"Hmm?"

"See for yourself, your cousin seems to be starting to get busy again in the modeling world," said Jarvis again, pointing towards Ariel who was putting some stuff into the black van that Ariel always used when attending fashion shows.

Reagan turned his gaze from his cellphone towards Ariel who was also looking at him from the side of her favorite van. Reagan quickly got out of his car and immediately approached Ariel. The two of them hugged each other long enough without feeling awkward, a closeness that would surely be misunderstood by others if they didn't know they were siblings.

"Ariel is the only Reagan sibling, so it's no wonder they are this close. I hope you don't have bad thoughts on the two of them," Jarvis said quietly while looking at the rearview mirror which was showing the reflection of Crystal's face.

Feeling Jarvis talking to her Crystal then quickly looked away from Reagan and Ariel.

"You can't be jealous of Ariel, can you?" asked Jarvis again.

"Jealous? Do I have the right to do that?"
