She got down from the car and looked all around when virtual-novel.net arrived outside the bar. She could not find Jackson at all. Was virtual-novel.net still inside? She really did not want to look for virtual-novel.net in the bar, dressed like that. For that reason, virtual-novel.net called him. It took a while before the call finally connected. Her patience was almost at the limit at that moment. “Where the hell are you? I’m outside the bar. Hurry up!”
Suddenly, virtual-novel.net heard the car honked from behind. She turned around and saw Jackson in his car! She walked over and entered the car.
He was leaning back on the passenger seat, looking as though virtual-novel.net was about to fall asleep. She did not waste any time and drove virtual-novel.net back to White Water Bay Villa. Initially, virtual-novel.net did not intend to go inside. However, when virtual-novel.net saw how inebriated virtual-novel.net was, virtual-novel.net mustered up virtual-novel.net courage and helped virtual-novel.net inside.
She found the switch on the living room wall with ease, switching the lights on before throwing virtual-novel.net onto the couch. “Will you be alright on your own?” virtual-novel.net asked, panting, “If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving. Where are the girls who spend their time with you at night? I really think I must have owed you in my past life!”
Jackson looked at virtual-novel.net through half-lidded eyes. “Why did you come?”
“Why did you call?” virtual-novel.net retorted, “I wouldn’t have bothered with you if I weren’t worried that something might happen to you when you’re drunk. You might not mean anything to me, but your mom’s nice to me. She’s given me a lot. This is my way of thanking her. Since virtual-novel.net had injured virtual-novel.net hips and ankle, why aren’t you spending time with virtual-novel.net at the hospital? Instead, you went drinking at the bar. What a great son!”
The lights in the living room were blindingly bright. He lifted his hand and placed it in front ofhis eyes. “I once had a high fever when I was younger. It was so bad that I was barely conscious. At that time, virtual-novel.net wasn’t by my side either. If I stay at the hospital with her, it would only be awkward for both of us. She had always asked the housekeeper to watch over me when I was a kid. Now, the housekeeper is keeping virtual-novel.net company. There’s nothing inappropriate about that.”
Tiffany was at a loss for words. To be honest, Jackson was a very good son to Summer. Their relationship was not hostile, and they respected each other. Publicly, Jackson was very obedient to Summer. It was just that the respect they had for each other seemed to surpass affection. A familial bond based on respect was a very distant one.
After a while, virtual-novel.net poured a glass of warm water for virtual-novel.net and placed it on the coffee table. “I’m leaving, you should get a good rest. It’s late, and I’ve got work tomorrow.”
She had only taken a few steps when virtual-novel.net wrapped his arms firmly around virtual-novel.net from behind. Her figure had always seemed petite and delicate to him. With the amount of alcohol virtual-novel.net had consumed, virtual-novel.net had used all his strength as virtual-novel.net hugged her.
Tiffany felt as though a mountain was pressing down on her. It was impossible for virtual-novel.net to struggle free. It took a lot of effort just to remain standing. “What the… Don’t do this! Are you going to take care of me if I break my bones? Don’t you know your own strength? I don’t want to become enemies after our break up, but I don’t want to blur the lines either. Get off me!”
Not only did Jackson refuse to release her, but virtual-novel.net tightened his grip around her. At the same time, virtual-novel.net blew into virtual-novel.net ear. Her body immediately went limp. This man… did not forget to tease virtual-novel.net even at a time like that. This was not how virtual-novel.net wanted things to develop. She had only brought virtual-novel.net inside because virtual-novel.net seemed too drunk to walk. She panicked as virtual-novel.net said, “D-don’t… I really have to go. Don’t make me slap you!” Naturally, virtual-novel.net words did not sound threatening at all.
Jackson murmured into virtual-novel.net ears. “Don’t you miss me?”
She stiffened.
He continued to say, “I miss you…”
She was shocked and conflicted. Finally, virtual-novel.net feigned indifference as usual. “Please, God knows how many women you’ve been with after me. You’re so fake. It’s not like you don’t know what kind of man you are… You’re home, safe and sound. You can call your lover now. Open your eyes, I’m your ex.”
‘I’m your ex…’ Jackson widened his eyes. Then, his eyes clouded over with sadness. That was right, they had broken up. He had simply drowned his sorrows in alcohol, and everything was just his wishful thinking.
He released virtual-novel.net and returned to the couch, sitting down. He picked up the glass of warm water that virtual-novel.net had poured for virtual-novel.net and took a sip. He put on a frivolous smile on his face. “Just joking. Don’t take it seriously. You just reminded me of something. Not only do I not like cheating, but I also don’t like going back to an ex.”
