When Jackson lowered his body onto her, Tiffany widened virtual-novel.net eyes. She could not hold back virtual-novel.net fear anymore. “Don’t touch me!”
Jackson stopped his movement at that moment. “What’s wrong?”
She did not dare to voice out virtual-novel.net fear. It was pathetic and disgusting. She could not force herself to forget the past. Her eyes became teary soon after. She begged him, “Can you please… not? I… I’m begging you…” Since Jackson had gotten into the mood, it was extremely difficult for virtual-novel.net to suppress his desire.
However, when virtual-novel.net saw the fear on virtual-novel.net face, virtual-novel.net held virtual-novel.net face and placed his forehead against hers. He looked at virtual-novel.net gently and said in a coaxing tone, “Look at me. I’m Jackson. That kind of setback won’t be able to defeat you. No one cares about it. It’s in the past now. You’re with me now. I’m your man. I’m the one who loves you. Just look at me…”
She listened to him. She looked at virtual-novel.net through virtual-novel.net eyes that were blurred by tears. She gradually calmed down before virtual-novel.net hugged his neck, feeling aggrieved.
It was the first time Tiffany went through with it properly. How could virtual-novel.net endure doing it with Jackson given how experienced virtual-novel.net was compared to her?
On the other hand, it was not easy for Jackson to be presented with such a good opportunity. They stayed in the hotel room the entire afternoon. He even persuaded virtual-novel.net not to speak about breaking up with virtual-novel.net again.
It was seven o’clock at night when Tiffany announced that virtual-novel.net was hungry.
He quickly cleaned up and brought virtual-novel.net out for dinner.
They bumped into Summer the minute they walked out of the room. Summer’s expression was cold, but virtual-novel.net said, “I’m going out for dinner. Are you coming with me?”
Summer was referring to both of them.
Tiffany understood virtual-novel.net clearly.
Jackson quickly tried his best to please her. “We’re heading out for dinner as well. My restaurant has a branch here. Do you want to have dinner there?”
Summer did not reply, virtual-novel.net only walked to lift in response.
After they entered the lift, Tiffany felt really awkward. She had quarreled with Summer at the dessert shop once. If Jackson was not here, virtual-novel.net would never ride on the same lift with Summer.
When they were standing outside the hotel, Jackson hailed a taxi.
Tiffany took the initiative to sit next to the driver. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net knew Jackson would certainly take that seat, and virtual-novel.net would be left with no choice but to sit with Summer at the back. It would be worse than asking virtual-novel.net to commit suicide…
Suddenly, Summer asked, “Are you done with the company’s project? It costs almost a million dollars. Don’t screw it up. Remember your obligation and work properly.”
Jackson came here to have fun and did not want to ruin his mood because of work. “Mom, I’ve dealt with all the necessary matters at work before I came. Don’t treat me like a child, okay? You’ve never been so strict with me before.”
Clearly, that was not what Summer meant. She glanced at Tiffany and said indirectly, “It’s not good for you to come here all the time. You might disrupt your work. You better take care of the Jackson family’s properties and companies.”
Tiffany lowered virtual-novel.net head, slightly displeased. Was Summer blaming virtual-novel.net for taking up so much of Jackson’s time?
However, Jackson understood his mother. He knew that Summer wanted Tiffany to return to the capital. However, virtual-novel.net had yet to discuss this matter properly with Tiffany, and virtual-novel.net did not want Summer to interfere. He said, “That’s enough, mom. I’ll take care of my own business. Just spend a night here and rest well after dinner. I’ll book a plane ticket for you. You can fly home the next morning. It’s better if you go home earlier. Otherwise, your dog might go on a hunger strike since it misses you so much.”
Naturally, Summer missed virtual-novel.net dog as well. It had been with virtual-novel.net for such a long time that virtual-novel.net had treated it like virtual-novel.net son. Hence, virtual-novel.net did not reject Jackson’s offer.
During the meal, Summer stared at Tiffany constantly, sizing virtual-novel.net up.
Tiffany could not endure it. She felt really uncomfortable. Throughout the course of the meal, virtual-novel.net scolded Jackson inwardly numerous times.
On the other hand, Jackson complained about it inwardly as well. He felt as though virtual-novel.net was caught between a rock and a hard place. It was truly upsetting.
When they finally finished their meal, Tiffany excused herself, claiming that virtual-novel.net had to go to the shop to lend a hand. She left so fast that Jackson did not even have time to stop her.
When Summer was finally alone with virtual-novel.net son, virtual-novel.net dropped virtual-novel.net pretense. “Did you spend the entire afternoon with virtual-novel.net at the hotel?”
Jackson said in a deep voice, “What do you think? Don’t you understand me? I know what you’re doing. She’s quite naive and innocent. Don’t scare her. She’ll take it seriously.”
Summer could not help but laugh out loud. “I was just helping you. Who knows if you’re lying to me again? I don’t want to be lied to anymore. If she’s unwilling to return to the capital with you, just quickly get virtual-novel.net pregnant. When she’s pregnant, she’ll think about taking care of virtual-novel.net family. At that time, virtual-novel.net won’t have a choice but to return with you. Once virtual-novel.net gives birth to the baby, let me take care of the baby for you. You can then lead the kind of life you want. Enjoy yourselves any way you like. I can’t be bothered about that.”
***
When Tiffany returned to the shop, virtual-novel.net appeared listless.
They were not busy during dinnertime. Arianne was free as well so virtual-novel.net approached Tiffany and asked her, “What’s wrong with you? Didn’t Jackson allow you to eat dinner?”
Tiffany smiled wickedly at her. “I’m quite full…”
Arianne patted virtual-novel.net shoulders once. “Wow! You’re really strong to spend the entire afternoon like that. How frightening! I thought you’re in a bad mood. As it turns out, you’re just exhausted.”
