Chapter 310: Uncle, Are You SeducingAgain?

It was the weekend. Tina was handling smatters in her room when Jared called. "Tina, cdown and have

a meal with me," Jared's voice was filled with affection. He hadn't seen Tina for several days and missed her

terribly. Tina continued working on her computer while replying, "I can't, I'm busy."

"Tina! It's been almost a week since we last met," Jared's voice carried a hint of grievance.

Tina paused. Had it really only been a week? Why did he sound so aggrieved?

"I'll take you to have strawberry cake!" Jared offered the bait when he noticed Tina's silence.

Sure enough, Tina's eyes lit up. "Strawberry cake?"

Jared smiled, "Shall we go?"

Tina thought for a moment and said, "I want the one you make."

Jared chuckled, "Alright, I'll make it."

After hanging up the phone, Tina tidied up and went downstairs. Jasper saw Jared and looked as if his precious

cabbage was being taken away by a pig but couldn't openly oppose it.

"Tina, cback early," Jasper advised earnestly before she left. "Chright after dinner; don't stay out

too late."

Tina responded nonchalantly and left with Jared.

In the car, Jared fastened Tina's seatbelt and asked while starting the engine, "Why didn't | see Mr. Reed today?"

He had learned a few days ago that Hugo was staying with the Reed family and had planned to invite them for a

meal. However, Tina mentioned they were busy, so the dinner was postponed. "They went out for something,"

Tina replied casually.

Jared glanced at her, "Is something bothering you?"

"No."

Jared observed her delicate face for a while before smiling, "Tina, do you know that whenever something is on

your mind, you always have an unapproachable aura?" Tina was startled. "Really?"

"es."

Tina smiled faintly, "Maybe | didn't sleep well."

The matter concerning Hugo hadn't been confirmed yet; she didn't want to tell Jared for now.

Seeing she didn't want to talk about it, Jared didn't press further. "Grandpa wantsto invite Mr. Reed to dine

with us at the Farrell family tomorrow."

Before Tina could respond, Jared continued, "Since Mr. Reed is in the capital, we should show our hospitality."

He noticed Tina's subtle emotional change when mentioning Hugo. Although he wasn't sure what had happened

between them, he believed Tina could handle it. Tina remained silent for a moment before agreeing, "Alright! I'll

let them know."

At Jared's private apartment, he parked the car and placed the groceries he just bought into the kitchen. While

putting on an apron, he said to Tina, "Tina, take a rest; I'll handle this."

Tina nodded, "Do you need any help?"

Jared paused for a few seconds before smiling, "No need; just enjoy your meal."

He hadn't forgotten how disastrous it was when his little girl tried cooking; nothing she made was edible.

Since Jared insisted, Tina didn't argue and comfortably settled on the sofa like she was at home, playing games

leisurely.

Jared rarely focused so intently on cooking in the kitchen.

Two hours later, four dishes and a soup were served on the table. Smelling the aroma, Tina put down her phone

and went to the dining room. Although she had tasted Jared's cooking before, eating it again still made her feel

that his dishes were delicious and suited her taste perfectly. Jared smiled warmly. "All ingredients are fresh. |

know you love spicy and sweet food but dislike sour flavors, so | adjusted the recipes accordingly." He then

brought out a strawberry cake. "Your exclusive strawberry cake."

Tina's eyes brightened at the sight of the cake. She took a spoonful and tasted it, feeling instantly delighted.

"Uncle, are you doing this on purpose?" She half-closed her eyes in satisfaction. "Everything here is my favorite;

are you trying to winover with food?" "Of course," Jared felt content seeing her eat happily. He leaned down

and lightly kissed her nose. "To win your heart, | must first conquer your stomach." Jared watched her with a

smile. "Doesn't that make your heart flutter?"

Caught off guard by his kiss, Tina blushed slightly and coughed twice. "Just a little bit."

Handswith a good build, caring and skilled in cooking-her uncle indeed had no flaws she could find.

Jared sat down and watched her eat with a smile. The scene was so pleasing that he felt satisfied without even

eating himself.

If only tcould slow down; he really didn't want to send her hso soon.

"Tina," Jared propped his chin up with his hand and asked with a smile, "How about staying over tonight?"

Tina looked at him and saw the heat in his eyes. She smiled slyly. "Uncle, are you seducing me?"

Jared held her free hand in his palm and brought his cool lips close to hers. "Yes, Tina, I'm seducing you."

The temperature between them gradually rose.

Moments later, both found it hard to control themselves; they almost crossed the line before Jared quickly pulled

back and gently patted Tina's head. "Tina, grow up quickly."

Last time, Jared almost lost control with Tina, and he felt guilty for a long tafterward. He almost forgot she

was still just a nineteen-year-old girl. Tina, her emotions stirred, suddenly halted by him, looked at him with

deep, resentful eyes. "You did that on purpose!" Jared, seeing her look as if she wanted to devour him, felt a bit

awkward. "Be patient, wait until you're a bit older, until we can get married," he said.

Tina looked at Jared's sexy, thin lips and wanted to throw herself at him again but thought better of it. "Uncle is

right!" she thought to herself. She was still young. Children shouldn't do what adults do. Yes, that's right.

After dinner, seeing that it was still early, Jared took Tina to a nearby mall for a stroll. Tina didn't need anything,

but Jared always wanted to buy her something. It seemed like no amount could express how much he liked her.

As they wandered through the mall, they had just entered a luxury brand store when they heard a voice, slightly

surprised, "Mr. Farrell?"

Jared and Tina turned around and saw Willow and her daughter Lily, who were also shopping there. Lily stared at

them, doubting her eyes for a moment. Though they were only engaged, they looked like a newly married couple

walking through the mall, a sight that couldn't help but spark jealousy in her. Willow's expression darkened even

more because of Tina; she had been turned away from the Reed family's hseveral times. Now, seeing her

again was like seeing sbad luck charm; even a glance seemed to bring misfortune.

Jared glanced at them without any extra interest and turned to ask Tina, "Is there anything you want?" Tina tilted

her head to look at the items on the shelf, her interest waning, "Nothing much, it's all so-so."

Seeing herself treated as if she were air, Lily's face grew embarrassed. When had she ever been treated with

such disregard?
