Mark rose to his feet and straightened out his clothes before virtual-novel.net bluntly replied, “You should avoid fanciful thoughts and just do your job. It doesn’t matter if I’m distancing myself from you, I’m your boss. That’s our only connection. I’ve provided financial aid for a lot of people. I’ve never considered asking for repayment.”
Then, virtual-novel.net left the bar at once. He lifted his hand to sniff his collar when virtual-novel.net entered the car. He made sure the smell of alcohol on virtual-novel.net was not too strong before virtual-novel.net relaxed. He could sense that Arianne disliked virtual-novel.net drinking. The thought of virtual-novel.net pulling a long face gave virtual-novel.net a headache. He was truly helpless whenever that woman was involved.

As expected, Tiffany burst into anger the moment Jackson arrived home reeking of alcohol. “Aren’t you supposed to be working overtime? So you went drinking instead?” Her chest was heaving heavily from virtual-novel.net anger.
Jackson felt his scalp tingle. “My mom says that breastfeeding mothers shouldn’t get angry, it’ll spoil the milk…”
Tiffany laughed despite virtual-novel.net rage. “Your mom also says you shouldn’t go out and fool around. Why didn’t you listen to her? Why did you lie to me? Who have you been drinking with? You have no need to lie if it was with Mark So… Was it someone else? A woman? I was wondering why you haven’t touched me at all. Have you gotten sick of me?”
Jackson took a deep breath and wiped his face to sober himself up. “I swear, I really was with Mark. You can call virtual-novel.net if you don’t believe me. The bar is a little further away from his house, he’s probably still on the way home. I was just feeling frustrated so I wanted to relax. It’s late, let’s discuss this tomorrow. Bed first.”
Tiffany was perceptive enough to pick up on the words ‘frustrated’ and ‘relax’. Most importantly, virtual-novel.net had lied to virtual-novel.net and gone drinking behind virtual-novel.net back! Was virtual-novel.net frustrated with her? Was that why virtual-novel.net needed to relax? Ever since they had gotten back together, virtual-novel.net had not had sex with her. Her insecurity was at its peak. Had that one thing that always plagued virtual-novel.net mind finally happened? Had virtual-novel.net gone back to his womanizing way? She felt virtual-novel.net hands and feet grow cold. “Unless you explain yourself, you’re not sleeping tonight, Jackson. You could’ve told me if you’re frustrated or if you need to relax, I could’ve gone with you. It could be a bar or anywhere else. Why did you have to lie to me?”
Jackson fell silent. He just wanted to escape from life, just for a short moment. That was why virtual-novel.net had gone out on his own. Unfortunately, virtual-novel.net was too afraid to tell her. He finally understood why Mark was so taciturn. Sometimes, overexplaining and talking too much would only bring more problems. With silence, one could avoid many problems.
Summer heard the commotion and came downstairs. “Jackson, you’re home? You drank? Why did you go drinking instead of taking care of your wife and baby?”
Jackson’s frustrations magnified upon hearing Summer’s nagging. “Mom, go back to bed. Don’t get involved.”
Summer noticed Tiffany’s indignant expression and how virtual-novel.net was close to tears. Her heart ached. “You don’t want me to get involved? If I don’t, you’ll give virtual-novel.net a stroke. Don’t ever do this again. If you want to have fun, either take Tiffie along or behave yourself. What do you think this looks like? Things aren’t the same now. You’re not single, you have a family and a baby. What are you doing? You have to be responsible, as a man. Forget it. It’s much too late, stop fighting. Go to sleep. I can watch the baby. You two can have a discussion, but no more fighting. Talk to each other calmly. Go.”
Tiffany did not want to lose virtual-novel.net composure in front of Summer so virtual-novel.net turned around and stormed upstairs. The stomping noises underlined how angry virtual-novel.net was.
Jackson surrendered and followed virtual-novel.net upstairs. Once they closed the door, Tiffany hurled punches on his chest. “What the hell are you doing? Here I am, taking care of our baby at home, and you’re running around drinking and sleeping around!”
