When they left the civil affairs office after collecting their marriage certificate, Tiffany delightfully put the red booklet into virtual-novel.net handbag with care. “Such a good day today. Shall we go somewhere nice for lunch?”
Jackson rubbed his ear, which was still throbbing in pain. “Sure, as long as you’re happy, we’ll do whatever you want…”
She glared at him. “What do you mean by as long as I’m happy? Does that mean you dislike eating with me? I’m telling you now, Jackson West, don’t pull your face in front of me constantly. If you’re not happy about something, say it. Don’t make it look like I’m always pushing you around! If my daughter turns out to be ugly from all the times you’ve had me stare at your gloomy face, I’m blaming you for it!”
Jackson did not dare to neglect virtual-novel.net warnings and immediately carried virtual-novel.net into the car. “Alright, alright, I’m smiling now, ok? Let’s go and eat whatever you want for lunch. I’m not unhappy. Spending time with you is the best thing that could happen to me. I’ve still got a meeting to attend in the office shortly, so I’ll end the meeting as soon as possible and bring you out for lunch, ok?”
Finally, Tiffany smiled. “I’m not trying to be unreasonable with you, but you’ve been acting so strange recently. Whether it’s at home or at the office, I’ve caught you spacing off a few times now. Is there something in your mind? You can tell me, you know. Although I’m not smart, I could cheer you up!”
Jackson felt embittered. “It’s… It’s nothing. It’s just some stuff at work. It’s nothing, don’t worry about it.”
Back at the office, Tiffany secretly told Arianne about the paternity test report, despite being told not to. She highly doubted that Jackson and Mark’s friendship would be ruined because of this, virtual-novel.net only wanted to be open with Arianne. She criticized Mark while virtual-novel.net was at it.
When Arianne heard about it, virtual-novel.net spit out the water that virtual-novel.net had been drinking, splattering half of virtual-novel.net desk. She looked at the gazes from virtual-novel.net colleagues who had seen virtual-novel.net slip up and shyly apologized as virtual-novel.net quickly put down virtual-novel.net glass and wiped off the water with a tissue. Of course, virtual-novel.net would not believe that Mark would secretly carry out a paternity test on Smore. The report Tiffany saw was most likely between Alejandro and Mark.
While virtual-novel.net condemned Jackson for throwing them under the bus, virtual-novel.net felt sorry for Tiffany as well. Tiffany had been so open with her, yet virtual-novel.net could not do the same to her.
She casually replied, “It’s fine, I know all about it actually.”
Tiffany was shocked but maintained virtual-novel.net composure shortly after. Arianne was no fool, how could virtual-novel.net not find out that Mark had done a paternity test behind virtual-novel.net back? Anyway, all was well. At least, there wouldn’t be any misunderstandings.
