Chapter 335 Perfect Dream Guy
Looking back, Jennifer had barely been conscious as she

dragged herself toward the exit, not even sure if she’d make it. out alive.
When Timothy suddenly showed up, it was like a weight lifted off her shoulders.
Everything from that moment was a blur. She’d been floating in and out of consciousness.
While she couldn’t piece together all the details, she’d caught bits of Timothy’s heated exchange with the Hargreaves family. Even in her hazy state, she could read between the lines of what went down.
Timothy must have been absolutely livid.
Jennifer never would’ve guessed he’d show up with backup like that, let alone trash the entire lab.
From the way Timothy was acting that night, Jennifer was pretty sure he’d had a gun pointed at the Hargreaves‘ heads while he was laying into them. Judging by his temper, one wrong move from them and he wouldn’t have hesitated to pull the trigger.
The last thing Jennifer wanted was Timothy getting into hot water because of her. Even with the Clark family’s influence,

they couldn’t exactly sweep things under the rug with a lab full of witnesses.
As these thoughts swirled in her head, Timothy looked down, his eyes meeting hers. “You’re worried I might’ve killed someone from the Hargreaves family, aren’t you?”
Jennifer met his eyes and let out a dry laugh. “Hey, don’t beat yourself up. If murder was legal, I’d probably want to take them out myself sometimes.”
In her past life, she’d given everything to the Hargreaves family, only to be tossed aside like trash when they were done with her.
The truth was, her brothers had never seen her as their little sister. She was nothing but a tool.
Sometimes, she caught herself wondering, “What was I really to them?”
“Look,” Jennifer said, “don’t worry about hurting my feelings when it comes to the Hargreaves. I was already about to cut ties with them before all this went down. After what they pulled, you really think I’d still have a soft spot for them?”
“No way in hell,” she thought.
Besides, Timothy had done all this because of her. How could she possibly hold that against him? That was being ungrateful.
Jennifer’s words washed a wave of relief over Timothy.

Angelina had stopped by the hospital while Jennifer was still in
a coma.
She’d gotten in his head about his extreme reaction, asking what if Jennifer woke up and resented him for almost killing members of the Hargreaves family–his own brother included?
Timothy had stood his ground, insisting Jennifer would
understand.
But Angelina’s words had stuck with him, nagging at the back of his mind until he could hear it straight from Jennifer herself.
And sure enough, Jennifer didn’t let him down.
A smile played across Timothy’s face, his eyes lighting up with that familiar spark. He’d known in his gut she’d say exactly that.
After all, Timothy was the only one who’d witnessed firsthand how the Hargreaves had treated Jennifer.
The favoritism made his blood boil whenever he thought about it. Who would’ve guessed that Jennifer, with four brothers to her name, lived worse than the housekeeper?
Jennifer froze when she caught Timothy’s smile.
It was unlike anything she’d seen from him before. She reached out, gently touching his face. “You should stick to your usual brooding look,” she teased.
That smile of his was straight–up dangerous.

Jennifer had been low–key mesmerized, and she couldn’t help thinking about how other girls would react. They’d be absolutely gone for him.
Timothy caught her hand, his eyes darkening. “Why’s that?”
“Now I get why you had such a reputation back then–why all those girls called you their ‘perfect dream guy‘. That smile of yours is seriously dangerous,” she said.
That reputation came with a reason.
Timothy let out a quiet laugh at Jennifer’s observation. “Perfect dream guy, huh? These days, I’m probably nothing special.”
After all, in his mind, he was just another guy in a wheelchair
now.
Jennifer shook her head. “No, you don’t get it. The perfect dream guy hits different. Even if they fall from grace, there’s just something about them that sets them apart.”
Besides, Timothy had only injured his leg. It was not like his face was ruined or anything.
“So who’s your dream guy then?”
That question caught her off guard.
Jennifer studied the man in front of her, and suddenly, all she could think about was that radiant, magnetic smile he’d flashed

She let out a small laugh. “Of course I have one. Everyone’s got that special someone who just hits different.”
Maybe it wasn’t about the one who got away, or even someone they’d loved so deeply it left a mark. Sometimes, it was just someone who represented something beautiful in their minds.
Like Timothy’s smile just now, it had knocked her sideways, making everyone else fade into the background.
