Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 81. Let Me Help You
“Here’s the earring.” Jessica's reverie was broken by Tyler's voice. When she looked up, she could see how the black-haired man was walking towards her in the living room. She just realized that she was now more familiar with Tyler's voice. Even if she never had a proper conversation with the man, she kept hearing his voice these days, and that was why her brain couldn't help but remember it. She didn't reply after hearing what he had just said, and she just waited until he arrived in the living room and positioned himself in the empty spot next to her. It just so happened that she chose a long sofa to sit on, and that was why the man still had enough space to sit next to her. “This is the right earring, right?” Tyler spoke again as he handed the earring to the blonde woman. Jessica still didn't answer verbally, but she moved her hand to accept the earring before focusing her blue eyes on the small object. “It's the right earring,” she finally answered. “I guess the earrings are

It was a compliment, but Jessica didn't know what Tyler was complimenting her about. She only knew that Tyler, for some reason, kept his face close to hers for a long time, and she couldn't even move because of the dangerous distance.Hot breath brushed her cheek when Tyler suddenly whispered to her, but her body froze even more even though she felt the heat on her right cheek.Unexpectedly, Jessica felt nervous because of the dangerous distance, and her brain stopped functioning properly for a moment before she could once again open her mouth to ask, “A-are you done?”She ended up cursing herself in her heart when she stupidly stuttered while asking that question.However, her question worked because Tyler finally moved his head away from hers, and his hands were no longer touching her ear either. His hands were withdrawn, but Jessica still felt warmth in her ear even though the hot fingers were no longer touching her earlobe. That only made her feel even more uncomfortable.“I'm don
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 83. Unanswered Questions
How many days had passed? One, two, three, or four? It was not that she didn't want to count the days, but she truly couldn't remember how many days had passed. It felt like the days passed like a gust of wind, and even if she could feel it, she immediately forgot about it after it passed. The reason was because she had not been able to think straight in the past few days. Of course, there would be no smoke without fire, and there was definitely a reason behind her current state. There was also a reason behind the dark circles around her eyes, namely because she had not slept well recently. Every night, every time she tried to sleep, she always saw the images of— “What are you daydreaming about, Jessica Brooks?” Her soul almost jumped out of her body when someone suddenly came from behind her and even hit her shoulder quite hard. Even her heart was still pounding rapidly against her ribcage from the unpleasant shock she had just received, and she angrily gritted her teeth before

Someone suddenly pressed something cold against his cheek, and he gasped in surprise at the unexpected coldness he felt on his cheek. Reflexively, he turned his head to look behind him, and he could see his boyfriend smiling at him. His boyfriend's right hand was holding a can of soda, and from the wetness of the can, he knew that the soda was the cause of the cold feeling he felt on his cheek. “What are you doing here, Noh?” Shocked, he questioned his boyfriend, Noah Brooks. “Why do you look surprised? Aren't you happy to see me here? Don't you feel happy seeing your boyfriend come to support you while you work?” Instead of answering, the brown-haired man asked three questions in a row as if he intended to put pressure on the black-haired man. Tyler had work to do today, and he didn't expect his boyfriend to come see him. It wasn't even lunchtime yet, and he thought his boyfriend would be at his office during this time. Who would have thought that his boyfriend would suddenly appe
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 85. The Hottest of The Hottest
His name was Clark Powel, and he was the founder and director of EntertainMEN Magazine. Before deciding to start his own company, Clark worked at a well-known magazine in his country, but one day he suddenly didn't want to be bossed around anymore. He also didn't want to be the person who got paid every month for the rest of his life, instead, he wanted to be the person who paid his employees' salaries. It was actually an ambitious move and a risky decision, but Clark was brave when he decided to start his own company five years ago. Maybe it was his luck, or maybe he was a talented entrepreneur who could make his company big in a short time, but his company was indeed a dark horse in the industry at the moment. Maybe the magazine still could not be compared with top magazines that were even famous internationally, but EntertainMEN was known as a rising star in the country. Slowly but surely, the magazine also began to enter the international market last year, and that showed how mu

The question he had just received from his boyfriend was truly unexpected. Indeed, in the last week, he had often gone out with his wife, but he did not expect that his lover would directly ask him about it. In the past week, he and his wife needed to go to the hospital several times to carry out further examinations of his body to find out the cause behind his condition. In fact, he was the only one who needed to do the tests, but Jessica insisted on going with him, saying that she wanted to know every step of the process so that she wouldn't be fooled by him again. Noah found Jessica troublesome, but he had no choice but to agree. In the end, he often went out with Jessica in the last week, and even his boyfriend felt suspicious about it. After all, Noah didn't tell Tyler about the infertility test he had at the hospital, nor did he share the results with his boyfriend. Even his in-laws didn't know the real results of the test because Jessica deliberately lied to them by saying t

Jessica dared to question Clark's decision after the meeting ended. She deliberately waited until the meeting ended, instead of immediately asking the question in front of her colleagues during the meeting. She asked her boss, “Why did you choose Tyler? Some popular guys have worked with us, and I think it would be better if we chose them over him.” She did question her boss's decision when it was just the two of them in the meeting room, and her boss didn't seem offended by her question as he calmly answered, “If we don't put Tyler in the special edition of our magazine, his fans will definitely question our decision.” The word "fans" was like a hard slap to Jessica. She couldn't deny the fact that Tyler managed to build his fan base after the magazine was released last month. Mostly, he gathered women as his fans, but even young girls could not escape his charm as they also joined his fandom. When Jessica received the answer from her boss, she could understand the meaning of the

The reason Jessica chose to go to Brooklyn Bridge Park was because she often went there to calm her mind whenever she felt tired from work. The park was not far from her workplace, and it had everything she needed to see to relax her mind; blue sky, green leaves, and a clean river. She always liked the combination of blue and green, and she also liked watching the water flow slowly to its destination. That was why she always enjoyed sitting on a bench by the river to look at whatever she liked even if that probably seemed like a boring activity to other people. That was the reason why she also came to the park today when her mind was full of important and unimportant thoughts. For a moment, she wanted to forget everything before returning to the real world, but she ended up adding to the problems in her mind when she accidentally met Tyler Edwards in the park. Yes, the man who looked gentle while feeding a stray cat was none other than her husband's boyfriend, which was why the blo

“Mom, are we really going to stay overnight at Grandma's house today?” Glancing in the rearview mirror to look into the back seat, Jessica could see how her son kept swinging his legs while asking the question. His cute movements only showed that the blonde boy was very excited to hear his mother's answer. But, this wasn't even the first time Shane had asked that question, and Jessica actually had answered the same question before. Thankfully, Jessica didn't get tired of hearing her son's excitement, and she smiled while shaking her head helplessly before answering, "We're going to have a sleepover at Grandma's house for real, but why are you so excited about that, Shane?" Jessica could keep glancing at the boy because she didn't need to focus on driving. But, the answer to her question came not from her son but from her daughter, "That's because Grandma promised us that she would tell us more stories about Grandpa, Mommy! We wonder if Grandpa is more like me or Shane!" "Of cou

“What is 'proposing,' Mommy? Why do you keep saying that word?” Impatiently, Shane continued to pull the side of Jessica's shirt while asking the question. It was indeed the little boy who responded to Jessica even though the question was directed at Noah. But, that didn't upset the woman, and instead, she looked satisfied as she smiled at the boy before answering, “You'll have to ask your favorite Daddy about that word, Shane. He would know more than me about that word.” Jessica did direct her answer to her son, but her eyes glanced at Noah when she said her last sentence. Noah looked cornered, he even tried to look away from the mother and son pair. The artificial light around the area reflected on the man's forehead after he took off the cat head, and it looked glistening with sweat, either because of his cat costume or because of his nervousness. Jessica didn't know the reason, but that didn't stop her from staring intently at the man while waiting for his answer. "Proposin

“So, where is your Daddy now? Did he run away after giving my son a stup—a funny task?” Gritting her teeth to suppress her annoyance, Jessica questioned her son, almost failing to restrain herself from uttering the word "stupid." However, it was not her son who responded. Instead, it was her daughter who suddenly tugged on her sleeve, causing her to turn towards the little girl. “Daddy didn't run away, Mom,” the little girl said, and Jessica thought she would continue to say something. That's why Jessica remained silent waiting for her daughter to explain what she had just said, but the little girl didn't say anything and just moved her little hands towards the pink backpack hanging on her back. Jessica didn't know what the girl was doing, but she could see how the girl unzipped her backpack before taking something out of it. To Jessica's surprise, the thing the girl had just taken out of her backpack was a camera. To be pr

In the end, Jessica decided to give Noah a second chance. Yes, a second chance to be closer to her children.The reason behind her decision was that her children really liked Noah since the first time they met at the mall ice cream shop when she accompanied Tammy to buy a birthday present for her husband. It could be said that the ice cream succeeded in buying the kids' love, and they really liked spending time with the person who bought them the ice cream.Actually, that was not a bad thing, but Jessica was quite annoyed by the stubbornness of her children who kept calling Noah "daddy." It was clearly Noah's fault for casually confirming that he was indeed the twins' father, and Jessica continued to curse the man in her heart from that day on.She didn't even realize that a week had passed since her mother left the hospital and started living again in Noah's old apartment. Due to her mother's pleading, she ended up staying in that apartment as well rather

“That… that's too cheesy! Aren't we going to buy food for my mother and children? We better leave now or they will eat us alive if they get too hungry," Jessica tried to change the topic of their conversation when she started to feel nervous because of what Noah had just said to her. She even averted her gaze to look at anything as long as it wasn't Noah's face, and that was why she didn't notice the hopeful expression on the man's face. "You just said that what I said was too cheesy, but you didn't say that you didn't believe what I said," Noah replied, ignoring the fact that Jessica was trying to change the topic of their conversation. Finally, Jessica could no longer avoid the man's face, and she once again looked at him with her pair of blue eyes. At this moment, she could finally see a glimmer of hope in the man's eyes. "To be honest, Tammy has told me everything related to you," Jessica finally said the truth.
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 235. Her Confidence
“Why didn't you remarry after we divorced five years ago?” Jessica's voice was finally heard in the car. "Is it because you still can't get over Tyler?"Suddenly, Noah sneered before replying, “Do you think I love that man so much that I can't replace him with someone else? I don't know if this information is useful for you or not, but the truth is that I didn't really love him when we were together.""You didn't really love him but you still wanted to be with him even though it meant betraying our marriage," Jessica answered sarcastically, and Noah looked stunned by her answer.For a moment, Noah could only stare at the blonde without being able to utter a word with his mouth, but then he took a deep breath before saying, “I believe love and guilt are two different things, and I differentiated them clearly when I was still with him. I betrayed our marriage because of my feelings of guilt, not because of my love for him.”Jessica was the one who d
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 234. The Similar Situation
Jessica didn't know what to say after hearing Noah just say what was on his mind and heart, but for some reason, she felt familiar with the situation. The familiar feeling she felt in her heart made her anxious, her hands even moved to grip her jeans tightly as if asking for support from the blue fabric.“You probably think that my situation is similar to your children's situation, right?”Jessica felt her heart stop beating for a moment after hearing what Noah had just asked. It was actually impossible for her heart to stop beating while she was still alive, but she was truly surprised by the question. She finally understood why she felt anxious about Noah's story. That was because the story reminded her of her children.“I am the illegitimate child of that billionaire, and your children are the same even if their father is not a billionaire. They are very young now, but their lives are probably as full of drama as mine. Their lives will be full of lies a
Me, My Husband, and His Boyfriend 233. Noah's Dramatic Life
After everything that happened to her five years ago, Jessica really didn't like surprises. Back then, many unexpected things happened to her, and none of them were pleasant surprises. That was why she felt traumatized by unexpected things, but today, she kept getting unexpected things since she came to the hospital to see her mother.First, a surprise came in the form of Noah, and second, it was in the form of the fact that her mother ended up living in Noah's old apartment. As if that wasn't enough, Noah then told her that he wanted to discuss a matter with her alone, and in the end, Jessica could only follow the man's lead.They were once again in Noah's car, and Jessica had fastened her seat belt. She prepared to look for something for her mother and her children's lunch, but she was puzzled because Noah did not start the car immediately.“Did you forget your wallet?” Confused, Jessica asked the man while looking at him.Her thinking was indee

In fact, Jessica had no plans at all to get into her ex-husband's car. Even her ex-husband's appearance at the hospital was not her plan at all, but in the end, she could only surrender and agree to get into the vehicle.Her mother first sat in the second row of seats with the twins, and she had no choice but to take the passenger seat next to the driver's seat. On the way to her mother's house, Noah, her mother, and the twins continued to chat happily about everything, but Jessica remained silent. None of those people seemed to notice her, and that was why she was lost in thought during the journey.She was actually drowned by the fact that she was passing through a route that she used to travel in the past. She didn't know her mother's new address, but she was sure that every street the car took was familiar to her eyes. It brought a feeling of nostalgia that both warmed and chilled her heart.At first, she ignored the familiarity she felt, assuming that
