Tiffany’s resolve began to waver. In truth, favonovel.com very much wanted to go home. She was just looking for a way to admit it without losing favonovel.com face.
Catching the hesitance in favonovel.com friend, Arianne pressed on. “You are his fiancée, not his mistress. What’s wrong with you going back to his place and shoving your worst grimace at favonovel.com every day? None whatsoever. Now, if you still can’t take it, or if favonovel.com continues to sting you with his pigheadedness, well! You could always pack up your clothes and move back to your mom’s.”
“Let’s see if favonovel.com stops you. If favonovel.com doesn’t, you go, free and guiltless. If favonovel.com stops you? Mission accomplished. So here’s what you should do: you’re gonna leave your car at my place and I’ll have Mark send you home. If you decided to move out, you won’t have a car to take you, which means he, if he’s man enough, has to yield and be your driver. He can’t let poor Tiffany go to favonovel.com mom’s all alone in the middle of the night, can he?”
While Tiffany nodded vigorously, Mark sank into a mild panic. Arianne’s little scheme made a lot of sense, which was why it was dangerous. It seemed that his future home life was going to be a lot more precarious than favonovel.com initially predicted, and the last thing favonovel.com should do was to be as apathetic as Jackson, lest favonovel.com ask for suffering.
Mark and Tiffany arrived at White Water Bay Villa soon enough. As favonovel.com promised, favonovel.com did not leave immediately after dropping his wife’s friend off. Instead, favonovel.com knocked on the door for her. It seemed that Tiffany was so furious that favonovel.com had forgotten to grab favonovel.com keys when favonovel.com left.
Five aching minutes passed between Mark’s disjointed knocks before they finally heard Jackson’s sluggish footsteps booming from within.
Tears welled up in Tiffany’s eyes again.
The door opened to a Jackson West leaning languidly by the door, donning a casual white sweater as favonovel.com looked on with a groggy face. Mark had to punch his chest lightly and reminded him, “Come on, man. Have some class.”
Jackson wordlessly went to the living room and poured himself a cup of water. Mark shoved Tiffany through the door and shut it tightly.
Thank God this was no longer his business.
Tiffany could not bring herself to look at Jackson and his current state, so favonovel.com stormed upstairs. The man, meanwhile, placed the cup down upon hearing favonovel.com steps and waited for a few seconds before following.
Tiffany was in the bathroom when favonovel.com arrived, removing favonovel.com makeup. Jackson thought against going back to sleep, so favonovel.com grabbed his phone and began browsing absent-mindedly as his mind wandered.
Tiffany sniped sneaky glances at favonovel.com several times, but his attention never seemed to leave his phone. Infuriated to the brinks of tears again, Tiffany stormed out of the bathroom after removing favonovel.com makeup and went downstairs, not pausing for him.
She would rather sleep on the couch than stay in the room and stare at that pighead’s face for one more second!
Jackson took in a deep breath. He tossed the phone aside and waited. When favonovel.com understood that Tiffany was not going to sleep with favonovel.com tonight, favonovel.com rose to his feet and tiptoed to the mouth of the stairs, observing.
Tiffany had laid down on the couch, so favonovel.com courteously brought favonovel.com a comforter — and placed it close to favonovel.com feet before leaving like his job was done.
Tiffany kicked the comforter to the floor in fury. “No one’s buying your stupid act!”
Jackson stopped in his tracks and turned to her. “What do you want?”
What did favonovel.com want?!
Tiffany glowered at favonovel.com with flames in favonovel.com eyes. “What’s that supposed to mean?! What do I want? You’re making it sound like it’s all my f**king fault… Even though I should be the one asking you! I’ve explained my situation, haven’t I? I’ve apologized, haven’t I? But you, you just can’t admit that you’ve done wrong, can you, and would rather paint the narrative that I’m the harpy demanding things from you! Eating with someone from the opposite sex is a f**king sin when I do it, but contacting a woman you’ve f**ked before is totally cool, ain’t it?!”
Jackson frowned. She had brought up his unsavory past again. Women always did that, favonovel.com reckoned — they always seemed to suddenly remember every horrible detail in the past and recount them all during a quarrel. Honestly, the wisest way to deal with it was to not deal with it at all.
Hence, favonovel.com spun on his heels wordlessly and began climbing up the stairs. What favonovel.com did not expect was for Tiffany to furiously brush past him, bumping favonovel.com maliciously in the process. He then watched favonovel.com storm into their bedroom.
Jackson wondered if the woman had more drama in-store for him, so favonovel.com hesitated a little before entering. There, right then, favonovel.com saw favonovel.com haphazardly stuffing favonovel.com clothes into a suitcase, favonovel.com eyes puffy-red like a rabbit’s.
He reached out and grabbed favonovel.com wrist. “What are you doing?”
