I married the second male lead after reincarnating

Chapter 141 & 142

On the other end of the line, Lisa heard a muffled thud, and then the call was abruptly disconnected. When she called back, the voicemail informed her that the person's phone was switched off. Did they break their phone? She hoped they were okay...

Jennie did not notice her phone screen had gone dark. Meeting Taehyung's gaze, she quietly buried her head again, embarrassed and wiping her nosebleed.

Taehyung crouched down, helping her back onto the bed, his brow furrowed.

"How did you fall? Are you dizzy? Where did you fall?"

Jennie shook her head, remaining silent and avoiding eye contact.

Recognizing her resistance to him, Taehyung stepped back and maintained some distance. He handed her two tissues. "Let's go downstairs for dinner. Mom and Dad are waiting for you."

Accepting the tissues, Jennie covered her nose and remained silent for a while. She awkwardly said, "I'm sorry about last time..." She hadn't expected herself to lose control like that. She remembered that Taehyung had someone in his heart! He had maintained his purity all these years, but now she... She recalled the scattered fragments of that night... the mature scent of his masculine body... the well-defined abdominal muscles... the sensual, husky moans...

Jennie felt her nosebleed returning. It was just too hot and dry today, and the nosebleed seemed never-ending. She had always seen Taehyung as refined, scholarly, and never imagined he had such a body when he took off his clothes. Could this be why he started a fitness club? But wasn't that just a hobby? His physique was undeniably professional...

She bit her tongue, attempting to clear her thoughts. The more she thought about it, the more she felt like she wasn't human anymore! She had taken advantage of someone, and now she was thinking about such indecent things!

Taehyung gazed at her with an affectionate and gentle expression, a hint of a smile in his eyes. "It's not your fault. You don't need to apologize to me."

Lowering her head, Jennie did not notice his attitude. "You don't have to pretend not to care. I know you have someone you like, and now with me... You must be disgusted, right? I'm truly sorry... I..."

She rambled on, not knowing what else to say. She thought that if she had slept with a man she didn't like, she would feel like dying, especially when there was someone else in her heart.

Sitting down beside her, Taehyung spoke openly and honestly. "No, it's not like that. The person I like is..."

"Taehyung!" Jennie interrupted him. "Let's pretend that night never happened. I won't bring it up again, and I won't tell anyone. You can rest assured, except for Lili, no one else knows."

During the days at Lisa's house, she had been contemplating how to handle her relationship with Taehyung in the future. She hoped they could go back to the way things were. He could continue loving his crush, and she could go find her little wolf dog. They were never meant to be together, so there was no need to force it.

Taehyung's gaze darkened. "You... wish for this?"

Jennie nodded. "Yes."

Taehyung remained silent for a while, then stood up. "Well then... let's go downstairs for dinner. I'll head out first." With that, he left in long strides, closing the door with more force than usual.

Though he did not say anything further, Jennie could deeply sense his anger. But what was he angry about? Was it because she had challenged his male pride and hurt him? Or did he feel tainted, like he hadn't remained pure for his beloved? Jennie shook her head, unable to comprehend, and decided not to dwell on it. Her affair with Taehyung had come to an end, and she had finally regained her vitality. In the afternoon, she arranged to meet Lisa for some shopping.
