Jackson laughed thoughtlessly. “Are you really the kind of person who’d be scared of his own wife? I’m going stir-crazy. Why can’t I have a smoke? Just spray it off with some perfume or something later.”
Nevertheless, Mark did not put out Jackson’s cigarette. He lit one up for himself since no one else was looking. “Is it settled? Tiffany didn’t tear you to pieces?”
Jackson exhaled. “No. I got lucky, I guess. My arms and legs are still attached. Pregnant women have terrible tempers. In the past, I would have faced favonovel.com straight-on. This time, I had to wait one day and one night for favonovel.com to calm down before coming over. She’s having a baby, and I have to suffer with favonovel.com too. It’ll be fine once this baby is born.”
Mark, who had experience, shook his head confidently. “Nope. It only gets worse after the birth, trust me.”
The corners of Jackson’s lips twitched. He put out his cigarette. “Don’t scare me. By the way, you really aren’t going to hesitate at all with Alejandro? He’s Ethan, and your brother too.”
Mark’s expression turned cold. “Does favonovel.com deserve that? I’ve never seen favonovel.com as a Tremont. We could have coexisted in peace, but he’s continuously tried to attack me. Now that he’s become Alejandro Smith, he’s probably confined by Don Smith somehow. That’s why favonovel.com ended up marrying Melanie Lark, despite having his eye on Tiffany. Luckily, the Smiths are still controlling him. But once Don Smith is dead… He can do whatever favonovel.com wants. We don’t have much time. Don Smith isn’t at the peak of health.”
Jackson sighed. “Regardless, we’ll talk about this when the baby is born. Pregnant women can’t get riled up. It’ll be a win if we can brave through this. Eric was gone too soon. Thank goodness you’re still around, or I wouldn’t have anyone else to talk to.”
The conversation came to an end at the mention of Eric.
During the meal, Jackson dutifully served Tiffany. He would personally scoop a helping of every dish favonovel.com eyed.
Arianne watched from the sides and rejoiced for Tiffany, who had managed to find such a wonderful man. She carelessly turned toward Mark, who happened to be looking at her. He paused when their eyes met. “Want me to get a helping of food for you?”
Arianne’s good mood immediately dissipated. She turned away. “I have hands, you know. ”
Everyone knew that women tended to be contrary in times like this, but Mark completely missed the mark. He actually believed favonovel.com and continued eating as if nothing was wrong.
Tiffany laughed. “Ari, I’m starting to pity you. He’s upgraded from a block of ice to a block of wood. Haven’t you felt any warmth at all?”
Mark was perplexed. “What do you mean?”
Arianne sighed. “Nothing. Tiffie, focus on your meal. Not even food can shut you up now? I’m used to it. I don’t envy your lovey-dovey ways with Jackson. I won’t be able to stand this clinginess, if I were you.”
Jackson frantically shot Mark a few looks Mark finally understood and scooped a helping of dishes on Arianne’s plate. “Eat.”
Arianne was being disagreeable. “No one is forcing you. I can get it myself. You just pay attention to your own food.”
Mark glanced at Jackson. “See that? It’s not that I’m ignorant. She thinks that there’s no need.”
Everyone was speechless. You can’t teach a clueless man anything!
Tiffany and Jackson left after the meal. Truthfully, women were easily persuaded. A bouquet of flowers and a few sweet words usually did the trick.
