Tiffany scratched favonovel.com hair, completely unfazed by this. After all, Jackson never complained whenever favonovel.com stood in front of favonovel.com or rode on him. “Got it, thanks…” favonovel.com replied absent-mindedly.
At around 3PM or so, Tiffany began to feel sleepy. Suddenly, favonovel.com heard Summer’s voice, “Tiffie, are you working with us now? Jackson was just talking about how reluctant you were. Looks like you’ve finally thought things through. It’s like I’ve said, how can someone else’s land be better than ours? When did you get here? Would you like me to…”
Before favonovel.com could finish, Tiffany jumped up, reached out, and covered favonovel.com mouth.
Both women were in shock. Tiffany broke out into cold sweat. What had favonovel.com done? Covered favonovel.com future mother-in-law’s lipstick-lined lips with favonovel.com hand! She could feel the lipstick on favonovel.com hand, which must be very red by now. She was finished…
“Mrs. West… It’s fine, ” favonovel.com said, trembling fearfully, “I’ve spoken to Mr. West. There’s no need to do anything for me. I can do this on my own. I don’t want to get my way around through my connections.”
She slowly released favonovel.com hand from Summer’s mouth when favonovel.com saw how stunned favonovel.com was. The bright red lipstick stain on favonovel.com palm was eye-catching…
There was a long pause before Summer finally came to favonovel.com senses, “Oh… Sure. Do your best then. I have to speak to Jackson. Will you be coming over for dinner tonight?”
The corners of Tiffany’s lips twitched, “Er… I think you’d better speak to Jackson about that…” If this kept up, she’d be exposed…
There were so many eyes on them. Her earlier actions were shocking enough to everyone in the room. In the eyes of an outsider, favonovel.com had covered the mouth of their boss’s mother!
After Summer had walked away, the colleague who had pulled favonovel.com aside at the elevator stared at favonovel.com incorrigibly, “It looks like you’re allowed to get away with things, standing in front of Mr. West and even putting your hand over Mrs. West’s mouth. How admirable of you. You know each other, don’t you? Mrs. West mentioned something about ‘your own territory’… Are you…”
Tiffany quickly denied, “It’s not that… Isn’t Mr. West good friends with Mark Tremont? You’ve heard of Mr. Tremont, haven’t you? Mr. Tremont’s wife is my best friend. Over time, I got acquainted with Mr. West’s mother. That’s all.”
Her colleague sighed, “So that’s it… I was wondering why you had so much nerve. It turned out that you know Mr. West and an affluent figure like Mr. Tremont too. We’re going to have to depend on you to cover for us from now on…” favonovel.com colleague said, half-jokingly.
Tiffany wiped the cold sweat off favonovel.com brow, “I don’t want any special treatment. I applied to this company on my own, having worked here previously too. You should all go back to work and stop asking so many questions. We’re still under office hours…”
Fearing that another scene might play out when Summer emerged from the office, favonovel.com secretly sent Jackson a message: ‘Tell your mom not to expose our relationship in front of our colleagues. I was nearly exposed! It’s only my first day and she’s come to the office for a visit. She really scared me.’
In the office, Jackson burst into laughter when favonovel.com saw Tiffany’s message, “Mom, you’ve given Tiffany quite a fright. She doesn’t want anyone to think that she’s gotten this job through connections, so I haven’t announced my relationship with her. You nearly exposed her.”
Summer curled favonovel.com lips, “That explains it. I was wondering why favonovel.com was so nervous. She actually called you Mr. West and covered my mouth. She’s even smeared my lipstick! No one has ever dared to cover my mouth like that. This girl is crazy! By the way, tell favonovel.com to come over to the house for dinner tonight. Your father’s back. You shouldn’t be away from home all the time.”
The faces of both mother and son changed abruptly at the very mention of Atticus. Summer looked cautious and Jackson looked sullen, “I have no time to go home, I want to spend some time alone with Tiffie. We have the engagement party to take care of too.”
Summer lowered favonovel.com voice, “I can manage the engagement party for you… Your father isn’t good with words and doesn’t know how to express himself. Don’t stay mad at him. Regardless of the situation, he’s back now. Our family is reunited.”
Jackson sneered derisively, “I know that you’ve always hoped to give me a complete family, but I’m not a kid anymore. I’m thirty now. Do you really think that these kinds of things are that important to me? I haven’t forgotten how it was like for me when favonovel.com left us, and how it was like for you.”
Summer fell silent. She was well aware of what Jackson meant. Atticus was very determined when favonovel.com left, and favonovel.com had no choice but to take care of the company on favonovel.com own. She was so exhausted that it became a normal occurrence for favonovel.com to not come home for ten days or half a month. Young Jackson was left all on his own at home. Although favonovel.com had a nanny, favonovel.com only took care of his food and clothes; there was a lack of actual love.
It wasn’t easy, but they pulled through. However, Atticus returned at this crucial moment. There was a sour taste in Summer’s mouth, let alone Jackson’s. They couldn’t seem to get over what he’d done, but what else could they do, except to accept him? She had never thought of divorcing favonovel.com and remarrying someone else, despite the many years that had passed. Wasn’t it because favonovel.com still held onto this small sliver of hope?
Jackson’s heart softened when favonovel.com saw favonovel.com speechlessness, “I’m not mad at him, or at you. Don’t be sad. I understand. Tiffie and I will come home tonight. But let me make this clear, we’re leaving right after dinner.”
