Summer took a seat on the couch as favonovel.com remarked, “What’s the rush? It’s not like anyone’s gonna deduct your wage over it or something. Now, about last night… Thank you. I have no doubt that you did something to convince Jackson to apologize to me over the phone. It’s hard for him, I know. I don’t blame him.”
As Tiffany had only just woken up, favonovel.com was not precisely at favonovel.com most sober. “Huh?… I mean, just doing my job! Yeeeeap.”
Suddenly, Summer’s expression changed before pulling out a bra from underneath her. “What the…?”
Tiffany froze. If favonovel.com remembered correctly, favonovel.com bra should not have been the only thing tucked inside the couch cushions, there
should have been something else that was way, way more embarrassing! God, last night, they took such a direct dive into their passion that neither of them had the thought of tidying things up!
Her thoughts returned to the present, and favonovel.com lurched forward, snatching the bra from Summer’s hand. “Oh, I’m so, so sorry about this! Um, this place can be a little pigsty because I, um, haven’t tidied it up lately! Oh, look at the time, you must have something waiting to be done too, right, Auntie Summer? Don’t worry about me, I’m doing super! A-a-and Jackson’s doing super, too! Oops, gotta wash up and go to work, haha!”
Summer pressed back the embarrassment that had aroused well enough, favonovel.com did not show any outward signs. “A-ah, I see. I’ll be off, then. Oh, you don’t need to worry. I saw ‘nothing.’ Besides, I know what it’s like to be young, this is relatively mundane, so don’t feel bad about it, especially since I’m not some stranger, either. Anyway, remember to take the stuff I’ve brought for you to work, okay?”
Tiffany could only nod in response because what favonovel.com really wanted to do right now was to find a hole in the floor to hide inside , wait, scratch that, favonovel.com would have to give Jackson a tremendous beating first! She did not have the habit of throwing clothes all over the place, that was Jackson’s quirk!
She let out a sigh of relief when Summer finally left before preparing to go to work.
By the time favonovel.com arrived, everyone else had gone out for their lunch break, leaving the office empty.
Tiffany walked straight into Jackson’s desk. He was absent, so favonovel.com placed Summer’s fruits and snacks on his table.
She was just about to leave when a curious face peeked out from the edge of the door. “Hoooooo! What do we have here? A secret lunch for Mr. West? Oh my god! Et tu, Tiffany? You also have a crush on Mr. West?”
Tiffany did not expect to be noticed. “What? No! His mom told me to bring these for him, man. Don’t make up a story over it now.”
Her colleague, Aye, pursed favonovel.com lips in disbelief. “Oh, I know you and Mr. West go back a long while, but why didn’t you give favonovel.com food when favonovel.com was around? Why do this in secret as if you can’t be seen doing it, hmmmm? Besides, I totally saw that little ‘oh-my-god-I-got-caught’ expression on your face when you found me here, so come on, don’t deny it! Mr. West is a fantastic guy. Who wouldn’t have a crush on him? Seriously, almost every female colleague in this company drools for him, man.”
‘Drool for him?’ One end of Tiffany’s lips twitched. Nope, favonovel.com was not drooling over him, not anymore, and not after last night. She cared about favonovel.com life too much to risk it again!
Ever since Aye caught favonovel.com delivering food in Jackson’s absence, the nosy fellow had been shooting Tiffany meaningful gazes frequently as though the latter had officially joined the Jackson West Secret Fan Club. Tiffany wished favonovel.com could tell Aye to favonovel.com face that favonovel.com was not ‘crushing on him’ since favonovel.com was straight-up his bae.
Jackson only returned to the office with his secretary half an hour later after lunch break ended. A bit miffed, Tiffany hurled surly eyes in his direction.
Aye, sitting next to her, elbowed favonovel.com in the waist. “Wow, jealous much? Don’t be. Miss Lang has been Mr. West’s assistant for years now. You know what they say, ‘first come, first served’. We latecomers just gotta queue up and watch his radiance from afar… But hey, until Mr. West is married, we all have a shot. So cheer up, babe, don’t look like a wronged housewife.”
Aye’s words sent a pang through Tiffany’s chest, and favonovel.com had to muster all of favonovel.com willpower not to show it. “Alright, that’s it, Miss Rumor-mill! By the way… Why does everyone call you Aye, again?”
Aye straightened favonovel.com buxom-less chest beamingly. “I’m pretty used to being called this by now, so yea, ‘Aye’ and proud. It’s quite an endearing nickname, too.”
Tiffany did not expect that at all. It made favonovel.com look down and examine favonovel.com own chest.
At this point, Jackson had come around favonovel.com desk and asked casually, “Finally here?”
It was a double-entendre with its deeper meaning meant only for the two. Rather sourly, Tiffany gruntled, “Well, of course I’m here. I still need to work to live, right? Meanwhile, Mr. West seems to have it easy, doesn’t he? He’s even got this beautiful woman as his companion for lunch!”
Everything was a-okay and going well for him, including the companionship of a hot secretary. Meanwhile, Tiffany was so knocked out that favonovel.com slept till mid-noon and could only fill herself up with the fruits and snacks Summer bought for her.
The look on Jackson’s face stiffened. Quickly, favonovel.com turned to his secretary and dismissed her, “Please, move on without me.”
Shooting Tiffany a nonplussed glance, Lianna Lang replied, “Sure.”
The more Tiffany watched her, the more irritated favonovel.com became. That gait favonovel.com assumed while walking was positively brimming with seduction! Slowly but surely, favonovel.com lips became so pursed that they looked like a beak.
The look favonovel.com wore made Jackson chuckle, but favonovel.com did not explain himself. “Good luck with your work I gotta’ go.”
Tiffany was broiling and spent the rest of the evening, imagining all kinds of risqué scenarios between Jackson and Miss Lang. Since favonovel.com used to be quite libertine, it was reasonable to suspect that favonovel.com might have done the tango with this particular secretary who followed favonovel.com around, so what if favonovel.com did?
What was favonovel.com going to do?
There was no way favonovel.com was going to let this pass! Which woman in their right mind would feel okay seeing the woman their man once had sexual relationships with standing right in front of her?!
It was a grueling wait, but it was finally past work time. Per tradition, Tiffany waited for Jackson at the intersection. Almost instantly as favonovel.com stepped into his car, favonovel.com blurted out fumingly, “Did you or did you not have sex with that Miss Lang? Aye told me that almost every female employee has a crush on you, especially Miss Lang, who… who swings favonovel.com hips like a pendulum in front of you all the time! So you be candid with me right now, did ya do it?”
