The True Heiress is the Reserved Fiancé's Exclusive Memory-Chapter 537 - 548: Let Me Chase Her - Additional Theater (8)
"Haha." Denver was amused by her changing expressions.
"Brother Petal finds me funny, huh." Mia looked at him with discontent and bit her lip, saying, "Dr. Jackson never laughs like you do, almost as if I’m really amusing."
"You like him?" Denver probed.
"Hmm." Mia frowned, muttering, "Dr. Jackson is such a good person, it’s natural for people to like him."
"Generally, people find him quite stern."
"Stern?" Mia frowned and thought, then said pensively, "At the press conference this afternoon, he indeed seemed pretty stern. But you can’t blame him, his girlfriend is ignoring him, of course he’d be angry. Right?"
"Exactly." Denver nodded with full agreement.
"That’s right. It shows Dr. Jackson really likes his girlfriend!" Mia squinted her eyes while smiling.
Denver looked at her, momentarily at a loss for words.
Mia gently touched the bandage on her head, pondering, "But I think his girlfriend is too inconsiderate. Dr. Jackson went on a rescue mission, it must have been tough. How can she not be understanding and doubt him just because of some gossip? And she even ignores him, sigh!"
"..."
Denver was taken aback, even more unable to find words.
——
Koa Jackson and Aurora Cooper were outside.
There was a brief silence.
Aurora first spoke, "Mia and I watched the press conference this afternoon. Your way of handling things efficiently put a stop to the rumors, which certainly angered Chairman Jackson, didn’t it?"
"Yes." Koa admitted frankly.
"Why did it have to come to this?" Aurora was puzzled.
In her impression, Koa Jackson was steady and composed, unlike this impulsive and unsparing person.
Being in the same circle, they’d often run into each other.
His actions put the relationship between the Jackson Family and Chester Family in an awkward position.
"To show you my sincerity."
"..." Aurora was taken aback.
Koa continued, "I went to the epicenter for rescue, completely unaware of these news items. Had I known, I would never have allowed Mia to suffer such grievance. As you said, she is overly accommodating to me, many things she keeps buried within without saying a word. Like the time Charlotte slapped her, injuring her right ear, yet she still brought me a handmade scarf early the next morning, lying that she was about to sit for exams, and wouldn’t be able to see me for a while. If I hadn’t accidentally seen the registration slip, I might never have known this. She always keeps it hidden, silently enduring, possibly still worried I’d find out. Of course, I’m not saying this to boast about her love for me, but to show you that I am well aware of her kindness towards me, every bit of it. Her attitude towards me is clear to me, I have never taken it lightly or neglected it. I am already striving to protect her, love her, not as you imagine, casually accepting her affection while using it to callously hurt and belittle her feelings."
The two hadn’t actually met many times, so communication was naturally limited.
What Aurora saw and felt was indeed quite one-sided.
She saw the strong and dominant role of Koa Jackson in this relationship, and the excessive deep love Mia had for him.
But——
She didn’t see Koa Jackson’s efforts.
The only time was at that charity gala.
He bid for Angel’s Wings for Mia, but in reality, it didn’t leave a good impression on her.
