Chapter 100
Jalen, who sat opposite Elaina, drank the beer and did not answer her question for a long time. Elaina looked at him and suddenly had a guess in her heart.
Although this guess was ridiculous, it seemed very reasonable at this time.
“Jalen, you like me, do you?” Elaina looked at him and asked with a smile.
She thought that Jalen would deny it immediately, but after waiting for a long time, he did not speak.
Elaina was a little panicked.
“Jalen, are you crazy?” Elaina could not help but curse.
Jalen put down the glass and looked at Elaina. “Why did you say that I am crazy? Just because I like you? What sort of logic is that?”
“Others may not, but you must be,” Elaina said.
She thought, are you kidding me? I am your ex–wife. You must be crazy. Otherwise, how could you like me after the divorce?
Jalen sighed and said in a drawn–out tone, “Sometimes, I think that if I could go to meet you during our marriage, maybe… We wouldn’t divorce.”
“So, you want to say that you fell in love with me now?” Elaina felt it was a big joke.
Jalen neither admitted nor denied it.
At this moment, Elaina had a complicated feeling. She regretted agreeing to Jalen to come out and have a chat.
She ate the barbecues and thought about life.
Jalen did not intend to let it go just like that. Instead, he asked, “So, can you give me a chance?”
Elaina pursed her lips and suddenly didn’t want to eat the barbecues.
“Ella…”
“Don’t call me that. We are not that close.” Elaina interrupted him immediately.
She thought, Jalen, don’t you feel embarrassed to call me Ella?
“Saul can call you that, why can’t I?” Jalen was a little angry and felt that his relationship with Elaina was better than Saul and Elaina’s.
However, Elaina did not think so. “There is no grudge between Saul and me, but you are different.”
“Why am I different?” Jalen asked.
“You are my ex–husband.” Elaina looked at him and said lightly, “We are destined not to get along well.”
“Who set the rule?” Jalen suppressed his anger.
“Have you ever seen any ex–husband and ex–wife get along well with each other?” Elaina had seen many TV dramas before, and the relationship between the ex–husbands and ex–wives was rather bad after their divorce.
Jalen suddenly became serious and said solemnly, “I don’t know what other people are like, and I also don’t want to know.
“But you and I don’t necessarily have to be like this.”
Before Elaina could retort, he added, “Anyway, I will call you Ella.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Elaina had goosebumps on her arms and looked at Jalen in horror.
“Jalen, are you alright?” Elaina felt that Jalen must be mad.
“I’m fine.” Jalen felt much more comfortable after speaking out his thoughts.
Unfortunately, Elaina still felt that there was something wrong with Jalen’s brain.
After taking a deep breath and calming down for a few minutes, she said, “I’m not interested in you, and I won’t like you.”
Her rejection came so quickly and thoroughly that she did not give Jalen time to react, nor did she give him any chance.
In a split second, Jalen’s expression changed slightly. He probably did not expect to fail on his first confession.
“Then what kind of person do you like?” Jalen asked, unwilling to give up.
“In any case, you are not the one I like,” Elaina curled her lips and replied. She felt that Jalen was too cold. She did not like such a man.
Moreover, she always believed that fate was doomed.
She married Jalen, which meant that they were fated. When they got married, Elaina really wanted to get along well with Jalen.
But then they divorced, which meant that they were not meant for each other.
In that case, Elaina would not reconcile with Jalen.
