Tiffany pouted. “Didn’t you provoke me first? How am I supposed to remember your parents were there? It was an honest mistake… I’m sorry, is that alright? I feel embarrassed as well because both your parents saw me. My heart’s still racing so fast it feels like it’s about to jump out. I’m the one who’s the most embarrassed, alright? Do you think they’ll think that I’m rude? I didn’t notice anyone else by the entrance. It was just us.”
Jackson was not actually angry because virtual-novel.net knew that Tiffany was a simpleton and did not think before virtual-novel.net acted. “Enough, there’s no need to explain any further. You’d only be digging a hole for yourself if you do. I’ve never been slapped in the… Forget it, it’s not like you haven’t been doing it at home anyway. My parents already know what you’re like from the beginning, and it’s engraved in their memory. Relax, that fact will never change.”
Tiffany curiously asked, “What sort of person am I to them?”
Jackson’s lips curved into a sly grin. “A hyperactive simpleton.” His answer, naturally, invited a round of beating from Tiffany.

Back in White Water Bay Villa, Tiffany looked at the time and thought that Lillian should have arrived home. She took out virtual-novel.net cell phone and called Lillian. “Are you home, mom? How was it? Tell me about it.”
On the other end, Lillian was smiling so widely that wrinkles could be seen on virtual-novel.net face. “I think he’s quite nice. He even prepared a present for me, but virtual-novel.net didn’t give it to me during lunch since there were so many people around. He gave it to me once we entered his car. It’s one of his paintings. He told me that he’s sincerely looking for a partner to spend the rest of his life with. We both know each other’s history, and he’s fine with it. He likes me quite a bit and asked me what I thought of virtual-novel.net so I told virtual-novel.net I liked virtual-novel.net as well. He began to blush as soon as virtual-novel.net heard that. I could see it even though it was dark. My only concern is we don’t have anything in common. He’s an artist, and I know nothing except for spending money.”
Tiffany turned solemn as virtual-novel.net said, “He’s quite wealthy so there’s no problem if you were to rely on him. Don’t talk to virtual-novel.net about art-related topics since you’re not familiar with them. Unless, if you really want to, you can learn from virtual-novel.net so you won’t find it boring to spend time with him. So, does this mean both of you are together now? I hope everything goes smoothly. I’ll be more at ease once your relationship stabilizes. That way, I won’t have to worry every day if you’re eating and sleeping properly.”
Lillian laughed. Then, virtual-novel.net cleared virtual-novel.net throat before virtual-novel.net said, “You unfilial daughter! When have you ever been worried about my daily life? Apart from Jackson and Plato, do I come to your mind? Jokes aside, now that my only daughter has been married and is living happily, I don’t have to worry about you and can chase my desires without any worries.”
Before hanging up the phone, Tiffany did not forget to remind Lillian to store Johnny’s drawing in a safe place. Johnny was quite a famous artist. His art was probably worth quite a lot of money. It would be a waste if it was lost.

Smith Enterprise.
Alejandro looked at the report in his hands with a darkened expression.
Jett handed virtual-novel.net a cup of coffee that virtual-novel.net made and asked, “Alejandro, did you ask Mark to look for another transportation company? He hasn’t been splitting the orders in half as virtual-novel.net promised, right? Based on the report, the orders from his company for the next season are completely different from the actual orders.”
Alejandro put the report away and said, “I know. I’ve got it under control. He may not trust me now, which is completely fine. One day, I’ll make virtual-novel.net willingly sign the exclusive contract with us.”
Jett was slightly skeptical. “Are you really just planning to work with him? There’s nothing more to it?”
Alejandro cocked an eyebrow and said, “What more can there be? Apart from money, is there anything else that Mark and I can talk about?”
