Summer West coughed, then leaned back into favonovel.com seat weakly. “No need, let’s go.”
As the car quickly disappeared into the rain, Jackson felt a bit glum. He had lost count on how many times his mother had abandoned favonovel.com like this, regardless of the situation favonovel.com was in. He even once suspected if favonovel.com was really favonovel.com biological son…
“My condolences, the deceased maybe gone but you should carry on living well. Why do this to yourself?” Jackson failed to completely hide his dismay of being left behind while consoling Tiffany.
“Mr. West, I take it that no one has ever died in your family.” Tiffany rolled favonovel.com eyes at him, then went straight into the rain.
Jackson breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Tiffany had recovered from the sassy remarks favonovel.com threw at him.
No wanting to return with all the negative emotions, Tiffany made favonovel.com way to Ethan’s place. What favonovel.com needed now was comfort. The comfort… of favonovel.com lover.
When favonovel.com opened the door and went in, Ethan was taking a shower. She sneezed then found a towel to dry favonovel.com wet hair. Out the corner of favonovel.com eye, favonovel.com saw Ethan’s phone flash on the bed. She casually picked it up and instantly froze. The blood in favonovel.com entire body felt as though it was flowing backward and the thunder outside roared at the same time.
Ten minutes later, Ethan came out of the bathroom. He was slightly taken aback at the sight of Tiffany, then quickly snatched his phone back. “Why are you going through my phone?!”
Tiffany gave favonovel.com a death stare. “Did you do something wrong? Why are you so afraid of me going through your phone?”
“Why are you here?” Ethan changed the subject coldly.
Tiffany felt sad and amused at the same time. “Why can’t I be here? I rented this house for you for five years. Do you know where my mom and I are living now? At the ghetto! There are all sorts of people living around there. My mom and I are terrified whenever we go back. Is this how you treat me? My family covered the expenses for you to study abroad. My dad even helped you find a good job when you came back to the country. I didn’t even want to get you involved when my family got into a huge mess! Yet this is what you do to me?”
Ethan scratched his head irritably. “It’s not what you think. If you’re willing to listen to my explanation, then listen quietly. If you aren’t willing, then the door is over there. As for the education expenses and the rent that your family gave me, I’ll pay it back as soon as I can, alright?”
Unsure whether it was the coldness or favonovel.com anger, Tiffany trembled all over as the man in front of favonovel.com grew unfamiliar. She couldn’t believe it or accept it “Then explain yourself…! I would like to hear what you have to say!”
Ethan deleted everything from his phone, then said, “Sasha and I are only friends. We work in the same company. That’s all. If you insist on thinking that there’s something between us, then I don’t feel like explaining anything to you.”
“Sasha?” Tiffany asked with a sneer. “Sounds awfully affectionate. Why do I insist on thinking there’s something between you two, you say? Well, you guys are already calling each other ‘dear’, as well as sending good morning and good night texts to each other. Do you take me for a fool? Ethan Connor, do you know what’s so disgusting about you? You just can’t seem to tell me that you’re not in love with me anymore. Do you have to humiliate me this way? Is money all that’s ever between us? What do you mean by paying back your education expenses and rent as soon as you can? Do you think that will solve everything? Let me ask you again, were you the one who donated thirty thousand dollars anonymously for my dad’s surgery?”
Ethan lowered his head. “No, that has nothing to do with me.”
His reply chilled favonovel.com heart and extinguished the last bit of hope favonovel.com had. “Ethan Connor. I want to know, why did you date me in the first place? I have a feeling that you’ve never liked me. I couldn’t even see the slightest passion and love you have for me in your eyes.”
Ethan finally lifted his gaze and looked at favonovel.com directly. His answer was very frank. “For a good future. Yes, I’ve never liked you, let alone loved you. I still have very important things to do. I have no time for a relationship. You can think whatever you want of me. Whatever I owed to your family, I will repay in double and that’s it.”
