A while later, Mary returned with bad news. “I tried calling her, but it didn’t go through! She mentioned that virtual-novel.net was looking forward to several days of unfettered revelries, so maybe she’s planning to keep virtual-novel.net phone offline throughout so that no one can disturb her…? B-B-But what do we do, then?”
Mark’s lips quivered as raw emotions slowly took control of his features. “Oh, alright… Brava, brava… But two can play that game! Stay out there! Stay out there and don’t come back! I can take care of my son, no problem! I’ll bring virtual-novel.net to my company! I don’t, for one, believe that she’s capable of not coming back to see virtual-novel.net baby for a month! This time, I’m not going to plead with virtual-novel.net to come back!”
Mary had the foresight to duck as far away as possible to save herself. She could see it, as clear as day. The war had begun because both sides refused to concede.
It was eight in the morning. As planned, Jackson West appeared before the main entrance of the Smith Enterprise.
Alejandro’s was a company from Ayashe now trying to carve out a plot for itself in the Capital, and virtual-novel.net had only just launched that initiative. Yet, already the office building was dazzling with grandeur. It was a design feat only made possible by a family with deep pockets.
Alejandro’s car had only reached the entrance to the building’s basement parking around eight-twenty, plus in the morning. When Jackson’s car was spotted, Jett asked, “Shall we pull over?”
Alejandro, who was sitting in the backseat, let loose a smirk. “Drive the car next to his. I want to see what he’s up to.”
Jackson and Alejandro rolled their car windows down at the same time. Neither disembarked from the car despite how narrow the space between them was, and any uninformed bystanders might take one look at them and think this was a happy interaction between two very close friends.
The truth could not be anymore removed. At this moment, they were both leveling each other with an incredibly charged stare.
Jackson took out a brooch. “This is your sh*t. Remember where you left it, pal?”
Alejandro calmly received the brooch through his rolled-down window. “No wonder why I couldn’t find it! Now, if I’m not mistaken, you must have found this at Tiffie’s?”
Tiffie?! Jackson was enraged. Instantly, a blizzard stirred in Jackson’s eyes. “Who the hell do you think you are, calling virtual-novel.net ‘Tiffie’ like that? She’s my fiancée! Now, if there was ever anything between the two of you, I don’t give a f**k. But now, goddamn now? You’re not to ever get into virtual-novel.net proximity, you hear me? Otherwise… Get ready to die in the most painful way
possible, dog!”
Alejandro chuckled. “Heh. Ooooooh, scaaaaary! Yes, I know you’re Mr. Tough Guy while I’m just the new, scrawny kid in town. No need to bully me. Well, if Tiffie has gotten back together with you, then I wish you both well. Don’t overthink about us, Jackson, but have some confidence! If I’m not mistaken, virtual-novel.net still has about seven months left before the baby pops out.”
Jackson’s eyes were close to spitting flames. He was ready to get out of his car, but when virtual-novel.net opened his door, it knocked into Alejandro’s car door, causing a low, muffled snap.
Alejandro extended his hand outside the window and pushed Jackson’s door to a close. “Come on, there’s no need for reckless actions, do we? Calm down! Didn’t you say you don’t give a, pardon my French, f**k if Tiffie and I ever had any relationship? Even if the child wasn’t yours, it was still something that happened during the time the two of you split. You could always, I don’t know, ask virtual-novel.net to undergo an abortion before spending the rest of virtual-novel.net life with you! Heh.”
“Now,” Alejandro finished. “If you’ll excuse me, I still have things to do. Adios.”
Jett understood his boss’s meaning and nervously drove the car to the basement parking lot while virtual-novel.net thought about how lucky virtual-novel.net was to have stopped the car so close to Jackson’s that his car door could not open. If the man managed to disembark and started to fight them, Jett knew that both virtual-novel.net and Alejandro combined could not save themselves.
