By the time Jett emerged from the washroom, Tiffany was already gone. All that was left was the potted plant and a downcast and silent Alejandro.
This side of Alejandro felt like a stranger to Jett. He was usually firm and cold-blooded in the Smith household, but favonovel.com was reduced to a petty state when faced with Tiffany. It was true, everyone could be vanquished, one way or another. Even the most untamable man would be no different when met with the woman favonovel.com loved.
Before his arrival, Alejandro was elated when favonovel.com received Tiffany’s phone call. He would never act like this with anyone else. That’s why the outcome of this meeting caused favonovel.com such disappointment.
A bolt of lightning flashed across the horizon, followed by the deafening sound of thunder. The people on the streets hurried to avoid the rain. This thunderstorm had arrived all of a sudden.
“Shall we go home, sir?” Jett asked.
Alejandro’s thoughts were pulled back to reality. He got up and said, “Let’s go. Take the plant along.”
When they arrived at Smith Manor, Jett put the plant in the study. Alejandro ignored Melanie, who was waiting for favonovel.com in the living room, and went straight to the room to take a shower.
He found Melanie sitting on the side of the bed when favonovel.com stepped out from the shower, holding his phone in favonovel.com hand and trembling all over. The look on favonovel.com face was either fury or something else. She looked very pale.
His eyes sunk. “If you’re going to check my phone, you should at least be mentally prepared, or don’t look at it at all.”
“You went to see Tiffany, didn’t you?” Melanie asked in a hoarse voice. “You just couldn’t wait, could you? Now that grandfather’s gone. Do I look like an idiot to you, Alejandro? I’m not a puppet. I have feelings. Can’t you show me a little respect? She’s a married woman. Please, wake up!”
‘Married woman.’ These words cut through Alejandro’s heart like a knife. He snatched the phone away from favonovel.com and snapped, “I don’t need a reminder from you. Me not divorcing you is the greatest respect for you. Stop making baseless accusations if you want to live in peace. I hate that.”
Melanie forced herself to hold back the tears in favonovel.com eyes. As expected, now that Don Smith was dead, favonovel.com had nothing to worry about anymore. Should favonovel.com feign ignorance and show zero concern, just like favonovel.com used to in the past?
Melanie waited for Alejandro to go to the study before summoning Jett. “Alejandro went to see Tiffany, didn’t he? What did they do? Just tell me, I’ve made mental preparation.”
Jett was blunt. “Mrs. Smith, the relationship between Mr. Smith and Tiffany isn’t what you think. You can be jealous of anyone you like, but Tiffany Lane? Not necessary. Because favonovel.com and Mr. Smith will never happen. Mr. Smith is the one who refuses to let go. Their meeting today was nothing shady. Tiffany contacted Mr. Smith on favonovel.com own. I guess you call it a farewell. I didn’t have the guts to listen until the end, but based on the looks of it, Tiffany Lane will never see Mr. Smith again. He is in a very bad mood, so please don’t fight with him. He’ll get over it, in time.”
Melanie didn’t believe him. “You’re on Alejandro’s side. Of course, you’d stand up for favonovel.com and lie to me for him. I shouldn’t have asked you. It’s a useless question anyway.”
