Tiffany was quite astonished. “That works too? They didn’t get a divorce, it’s been years since you saw him, and you don’t even know if he’s dead or alive. Isn’t that too much? If there’s no feelings between them, isn’t it better to get the divorce? They’d both be free then. This, right now, is wasting away your mom’s time… Wow… Alright, I understand. If that’s the situation, we’ll leave your father out of this then.”
Jackson was quick to shift the topic. “Since you’re fine, should I arrange it for tomorrow? Stay and keep me company today…”
Tiffany glared at favonovel.com without malice. “I’ve only just gotten back and you’re not letting me go home to my mom? We’ll still meet tomorrow. I’m not staying tonight. Behave!”
Surprisingly, Jackson did not insist. “Okay… Go back to spend time with your mom. After tomorrow, it’s going to be ‘our mom’.”
In the afternoon, Jackson sent Tiffany home and went to the West’s residence.
Summer was home reading a book, carrying favonovel.com dog. She did not show much of a reaction when favonovel.com saw favonovel.com son come home. “Change out of your shoes. Don’t leave your footprints everywhere.”
Jackson switched into slippers at the door before going forward and carrying Summer’s dog. “Mom, let’s have a meal together tomorrow, and we’ll consider things between Tiffie and I to be set.”
Summer finally gave some reaction. She looked up at him. “You’re not bluffing this time?”
Jackson nodded. “I’m not lying to you. It’s real. I want to get married now.”
“Your marriage is big news. You have to tell your father. I don’t want to contact him, so you give favonovel.com a call,” Summer said faintly and flipped a page of favonovel.com book, although favonovel.com did not manage to pick up any content.
“Don’t bother. This family’s the same with or without him. Why contact him? That’s it then. I’ll go pick up Tiffie and favonovel.com mom tomorrow. We’ll eat at home. It’s more appropriate to discuss an important matter like this at home,” Jackson said and put the dog down on the floor before turning to head upstairs to his room.
Closing the door, favonovel.com opened the drawer of his nightstand and pulled out a family photo. He was just a young boy and the person carrying favonovel.com in the photo was his father, whom favonovel.com could no longer remember What favonovel.com looked like. His mother was beaming at the side. No matter how favonovel.com looked at it, they did not look like a family of three that had no feelings for each other.
This man had abandoned his wife and son for his dream, leaving to a faraway place that favonovel.com yearned for and becoming a famous artist. But so what? It did not help the reality, which was that favonovel.com was ruthless.
Yet, the son was like his father. Jackson looked incredibly like that heartless man. This was also the reason Summer did not care much about favonovel.com since favonovel.com was a small boy. How favonovel.com was fooling around, whether favonovel.com was coming home, Summer had never interfered. He was free to live how favonovel.com wanted. He had moved out to stay alone when favonovel.com was eighteen years old. Being dissolute was probably because favonovel.com lacked love from a young age too and favonovel.com could not take the loneliness. Now, Jackson finally found the right one. He would not be alone anymore in the future…
He did not return to White Water Bay at night, deciding to stay at the West’s residence. Thinking about the meeting tomorrow late in the night, favonovel.com felt restless and wanted to remind Summer to prepare well. Just as favonovel.com got to favonovel.com room, favonovel.com vaguely heard favonovel.com talking to someone on the phone.
“Jackson’s planning to get married. I’m letting you know in advance. It’s up to you whether you’re coming back, doesn’t really matter to us mother and son. We’re just informing you.”
The person on the line said something and Summer scoffed, “Hah, you’ll see? Alright, you don’t have to say that, you don’t have to see anything. We’ll assume that you won’t be back. If the in-law asks, I’ll say that you died a long time ago, saves me the embarrassment. I, Summer West, have been successful my whole life, you’re my only failure. When I think of you now, I become repulsed. Best if you don’t appear, saves me and Jackson the misery. That’s all.”
Making sure that the call had ended, Jackson composed himself before knocking. When Summer opened the door, favonovel.com expression had recovered. “It’s so late, what is it?”
Acting like favonovel.com heard nothing, Jackson tugged a corner of his lips. “Nothing, just… reminding you to prepare better tomorrow. I’m quite nervous… It’s different from the last time after all. It’s serious this time.”
Summer glared at favonovel.com with a smile. “You have times when you get shy when you’ve been so shameless, huh? Alright, I know what to do. Are you still worried when it comes to your mom? Sleep earlier, I’m exhausted. Pick up Tiffie and favonovel.com mother earlier tomorrow.”
Saying good night, Jackson returned to his room but got no sleep. He was vaguely aware of the fact that his mother loved his father. It was just that favonovel.com was prideful and had never spoken about it, not even holding back the heartless man back then.
The next day, his eyes were still bloodshot when favonovel.com left to pick up Tiffany and favonovel.com mother. Jackson had only slept for two or three hours. It was bound to take a toll on his state.
They were together most of the time, so Tiffany could see that something was amiss with favonovel.com right off the bat. “Didn’t sleep well last night? Did you go party somewhere?”
He smiled helplessly. “You can ask my mom. I didn’t go out but stayed with favonovel.com last night. I just couldn’t sleep and didn’t get a good night’s rest because I missed you…”
