“Jensen.”

Suddenly Jensen heard a loud voice calling his name, he was shocked and accidentally dropped the Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

cigarette on the ground. He turned his head and saw Rae beside him. He didn't know when she came

to him. Rae held her dress and looked at him suspiciously. He looked at her face. Rae put on light

makeup, which made her beautiful face look even better. Her long wavy curly hair didn't change much,

she just added some trinkets on her hair and she looked absolutely gorgeous. But the most stunning

part of her was her skirt.

Her natural aura wasn’t outshone by the beautiful clothes. As if the whole night sky quietly covered her

body as a decoration, she completely showed her beauty with the dress. But even with the vast starry

sky, it couldn't compare with her bright and cheerful face at this moment. Just a smile and that would

completely cover the beautiful bright starry sky.

"Why do you smoke again? What's bothering you?" Rae could see that he wasn’t paying attention.

Since she came out, she had called him twice but he just leaned at the car door and smoked. Then

Rae had the idea to scare him. Before this, Jensen was admitted to the hospital because of excessive

smoking that caused him to fall sick. After he was discharged from the hospital, she ordered him to give

up smoking, then she rarely saw him smoking again.

Jensen was annoyed that he kept thinking about stuff and forgot to check when she came out. Actually

he never gave up smoking, He just never smoked in front of her. Seeing that he was caught smoking,

he said, "I can't help it just now."

"Oh, right, sleep in your study room tonight. I hate the smell of smoke." Rae said and carried her dress,

walked towards the passenger seat in front and got in the car.

After stepping on the cigarette butt, Jensen got in the car. Jensen saw that Rae didn’t say anything

after she buckled her seatbelt, he reached out and poked her in the face, "Are you really angry?"

"I don't talk to people who can't keep their promises." Rae turned her head and looked out of the

window, showing the back of her head to Jensen. It occurred to her that when Jensen was admitted to

the hospital, she saw him lying on the bed quietly. He looked just like her father when he was ill, she

was afraid that he would be like him. It was really painful to see the people she cared for suffering from

illness and she felt truly helpless. She didn't want to experience it again. In short, because of her father,

she really couldn't see anyone around her fell sick.

Jensen knew that she was angry because she was worried. Her father’s incident had left her

traumatized. In fact, everyone who seemed to be cheerful had a hidden side to their personality. Just

like when he was hospitalized before, although she didn't say anything nice to him, but he knew that

every time when he was sleepy, she would stay by his bed and keep an eye on him.

Some people were naturally not good at expressing themselves, but you couldn’t deny that they were

sensitive and fragile in the depth of their mind.

Jensen leaned forward, reached out and hugged her. He tried the old way of keeping calling her name,

"Rae, Rae, Rae, Rae, Rae..."

Rae saw that Jensen wouldn’t stop even after calling out her name for more than ten times, she finally

couldn’t hold it anymore. Every time Jensen called her, it’s like she was cursed. She always had

goosebumps all over her body. She didn't know how this man who seemed to be cold could get so

affectionate. As long as he showed his affection a little bit, she, who was thick-skinned, couldn't stand it

at all.

"Oh, stop calling!” Rae pushed him away.

Once Jensen saw Rae's reaction, he knew that he had succeeded, he quickly took the opportunity to

ask, “So tonight, will you still let me sleep in the study room?" The apartment was a standard two-

bedroom apartment. He turned one of the rooms into a study room, so they only had one bedroom.

Every time he made her angry, he had to go to the study room to sleep on the tiny chair.

Rae took a deep breath and pretended to be angry, "Don’t push your luck..."

"Rae, Rae, Rae, Rae..." Jensen said.

"Oh, it’s so annoying. Stop calling my name. You can sleep with me, alright?" Rae saw that he wanted

to call her again, so she raised her hand to cover her ears like she couldn’t bear it anymore. She really

couldn't bear it! In fact, she really didn't understand why she couldn't hear Jensen calling her name like

this. But in the next few years, when she grew up a little bit more and had more knowledge of the

world, she would realize that people would encounter many people in their lives but it’s really rare to

find someone who would call your name so attentively and sincerely.

Some people couldn’t meet such a person even through out their whole life. Just listening to him calling

her name made her heart tremble and made her feel touched.

Jensen saw that she finally compromised, he smiled and stopped calling her name. He started the

engine and drove to the dinner party.

……

The charity event was very magnificent. There were big round tables arranged in four rows, which

could accommodate four to five hundred people. The candles, red wine, flowers, porcelain bowls and

plates, wine glasses, knives and forks on the table made her felt dizzy under the light. Rae followed

Jensen at the back since she got out of the car. Although she was domineering at home, she knew she

needed to respect Jensen outside. Since they got out of the car and stepped into the event hall, there

were people saying hello to Jensen all the way. They just kept greeting him by calling him Mr. Knight.

Jensen nodded to them, but he didn't talk to them. Rae also nodded slightly as a response.

Now that the dinner party had not started, they were brought to another big room for a relax. The layout

and decoration of the big room was as grand and good as the main hall, with purple as the main color

of the room. There were more than a dozen high-footed tables scattered in the room. A variety of drinks

and desserts were served on the long table at the side. Everyone was all dressed up in expensive and

elegant clothing. They walked around with champagne in their hands, chatted and laughed freely with

other guests. Rae looked at them and felt that they were a little...

"Are you bored already?" Jensen seemed to be able to read her mind. He asked her.

"I get paid from you, I dare not to complain.” Rae took a glass of champagne from a passing waiter's

tray. She took a sip and found that it was not the taste she wanted. Then she gave the champagne to

Jensen.

Jensen took a look, took the glass and drank it naturally.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Knight and Miss Clark have such a good relationship. It really made others

envy." Said a female voice nearby.

Rae was stunned when she heard this. Miss Clark? Did this woman recognize her as Karina Clark?

"Your dress is so beautiful. Let me think who is the designer. Sorry, I forgot his name all of a sudden.

But I knew he had a superb skill in transforming the elements of the starry sky into the decorations on

his clothes. But I heard that he’s still on holiday abroad... Mr. Knight,you are super cool. It’s pretty hard

to get his dress.” The woman in a black dress came to Rae and stared at her dress with a compliment.

Jensen’s face turned annoyed, “She is not…”

"Ahem, indeed, the dress is very nice." Rae saw that Jensen wanted to correct the woman, she quickly

coughed and gave a vague answer, acting as if she didn’t hear the woman calling her as Miss Clark.

"Miss Clark, you write on your blog that you wanted to see Puccini's opera, didn’t you? OMG, I

suddenly forgot its name. Could you please tell the name again? It has been released in the theater

recently, shall we go to see it together? The woman in black dress thought about the name again but

she still couldn’t remember it. She looked at "Miss Clark" and asked persistently, "Miss Clark, would

you mind give me a hint? Maybe I would remember it."

Rae couldn’t answer the question.

Opera?

‘Pu... Who is Puccini?’

"The opera, it is uhm..." Rae turned her head and secretly winked at Jensen. She wanted him to help

her. Jensen knew a lot of things and was always well-informed, he would know the answer. At the

same time, she also experienced a little bit of Karina Clark’s life. It seemed that Karina’s life was

surrounded by art. Anyone who came up to her could start with a casual invitation related to art, like

watching opera.

Jensen found that Rae still refused to reveal her identity even when she was clueless. What was she

thinking? And she also asked for help from him. Jensen was unhappy, he turned and left.

Rae realized that Jensen got angry, but he also helped her to leave the awkward situation when he left.

Rae said with a smile, "I'll see what’s the matter with him first, let’s talk later."

The woman in black dress nodded, why did it feel strange?

She heard that Miss Clark liked this kind of thing very much. As soon as Miss Clark heard about this

topic, she would talk a lot. But now, why was she like that?

The woman in black dress didn't think much about it. She turned and talked with others.

"Jensen, Jensen!" Rae saw Jensen went straight ahead. She couldn't help calling him twice. Seeing

that he slowed down, she picked up her dress and walked two steps passing him. Then she stepped

back and asked, "Why didn't you help me just now? What is the name of the opera? Rae hadn’t

finished her words, suddenly, Jensen took a big step towards her and held her waist and moved her

towards him. She looked back and saw two little boys in little suits running past where she was

standing.

These naughty kids...

"I will never allow my kids to rush like this, never." Rae muttered. If Jensen was not here, she would be

knocked over. She leaned against her man and asked, "Jensen, tell me the answer."

"Turandot." Jensen gave in, he looked down at his woman in his arms and asked, "How can you admit

that you are Karina?"

"Oh, this social circle is so small, if people know that you don't even take your future Mrs. Knight out

but you brought me out with you, people will talk about it..." Rae’s voice was getting softer and weaker.

Didn’t she want him to introduce herself as Rae openly but not Karina? But she was nobody. Who

would care if she told her name? Unlike Karina Clark, her name represented her family and always won

respect to her.

"It’s all in your imagination!" Jensen got angry, what did she mean the future Mrs. Knight?

Unless he permitted, who could decide which woman he was going to marry as they wish?!

There was something happening at the entrance of the room.

Rae looked towards the noise and found that the person who came was Eric!

He was dressed in a white suit. He looked as cool as the summer breeze. He kept his smile as

everyone greeted and complimented him. He also greeted some of them along the way.

She could hear a few words coming from the conversation over there.

"When Mayor Parry takes over the office, I'll send you the ruby I've treasured for many years. A pretty

huge one. I guarantee you that you can't find a second one in the world at present."

"Oh, please don’t, it’s not confirmed yet that I’ll be the mayor, it’s better to just call me Eric."

"Oh, Mayor Parry, how modest you are! Although the official documents have not been released yet, it

‘s beyond doubt that you will be appointed as the mayor!”
