Chapter 1402 Gaslighting
Jayden had always been like this. When someone criticized her in person, he didn’t say anything, but he apologized later at a suitable time. And the excuses he came up with were always so reasonable, making Eva wonder if she’s being too suspicious.
Later, Eva learned that it’s called gaslighting, but at the moment, she didn’t know. She just thought that Jayden finally helped her…
Natalie was afraid that Eva wouldn’t have enough to eat, so she ordered two more dishes for her. While serving the food, Natalie smiled and asked, “Miss Miller, when do you plan to get married? My family wants to prepare in advance.”
Eva lifted her clear eyes and looked at Natalie and Martin. “Uncle and Aunt, I haven’t been dating Jayden for long. We still don’t know much about each other’s personalities, values, and thoughts. I want to spend more time together and talk about marriage later.”
Eva could tell that Jayden’s parents didn’t think highly of her. Coincidentally, because of their previous conflicts, she also had no intention of getting married. She planned to listen to Amelia’s advice and take more time to see if they were

Instead, he graciously picked out the fish bones, put the fish slices on Eva’s plate, and said, “Take as much time as you want to talk. I’ll listen to you.”
Relieved that she wasn’t being pressured into marriage, Eva let out a sigh of relief. She didn’t even realize that she had become more cheerful while eating.
After the four of them left the restaurant, Anthony raised his hand and reached for his phone. “I’ll edit this recording when I get back and send it to Miss Miller.”
The man next to him gave him a cold glance. “Don’t meddle in other people’s business.”
