Julian felt that he only needed to improve and manage his relationship with Ophelia in the future because of this matter. Ophelia would help him to deal with Greg then.The process of obtaining the marriage certificate went smoothly, but Nora was suddenly in a bad mood again when she saw the two copies of the marriage certificates and thought about how she had handed her life over just like that.She felt inexplicable panic, fear, confusion, and hesitation.Nora was still in a daze when Julian held her hand and returned to the car with her.After Julian leaned forward to help her fasten her seatbelt, he glanced at Nora and asked with a frown, “What’s wrong?”Nora snapped out of it and finally met his gaze. Julian could see through Nora’s inner thoughts with just a glance. He snorted loudly and said, “Don’t tell me you regret it.”Nora bit her lip. Julian glared at her fiercely and said, “It’s useless even if you regret it!”He then snatched the marriage certificate from her hand
“Don’t worry. I’ll teach Nora well.”Julian was about to ask him why he had suddenly had a change of heart, but he noticed the smile on Rowan’s face as he said, “I’ll teach her well so that she won't suffer any injustice or grievance in this marriage. I'll teach her how to make herself look even more attractive, fashionable, and charming.”After hearing Rowan say these words in a good mood, Julian felt as if he was going to have a heart attack.‘What kind of teaching is that? He’s clearly going to teach her how to cuckold me!’Julian had a terrible headache when he thought about how he would have to deal with a neurotic person like Rowan for the next few decades. He picked up the wine glass in front of him and took a big sip of red wine as he used alcohol to numb the pain caused by Rowan. Rowan, who was sitting across from him, continued talking as if nothing had happened. “Now that you and Nora have obtained your marriage certificate, don’t you think that you should abide by e
Miya had to acknowledge that Jason was truly a good boyfriend. He bought a lot of specialties from Detroit and nutritional supplements for her parents in advance, which gave her a headache. She initially did not have any plans to bring anything back home. She wanted to give her parents money to buy what they needed when she got home. This was mainly because it would be inconvenient for her to carry a lot of things by herself. She had been working in Blackstone for many years and had never brought much home with her whenever she visited during the holidays. Instead, she would always give them money directly to save herself the trouble and effort, but Jason had gotten her a bunch of things to bring home now. She frowned instinctively. When Jason saw her expression, he hurriedly said, “Let me send you back. It’d be convenient if you put everything in the car.”Miya stood in the living room with her arms folded in front of her chest. She glanced at the pile of gifts, then at Jason. He
He was very conscientious and homely. Miya felt that having such a man as her boyfriend saved her a lot of worries. She did not need to worry about him cheating on her, or worry that he would not be ambitious or strive for improvement as he would always be reading and learning to improve himself whenever he had time. She suddenly felt that such a man would be a good life partner. However, she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of the university he was at. Jason frowned and defended himself. “I won’t do that. I will only be missing you so much that I won’t even be able to sleep.”Miya pretended to be disappointed and sighed. “You’re so good at sweet talking. I really don’t know if you would say such sweet words to other women behind my back.”Jason protested, “Miya, how can you think of me like this? The only person I sweettalk is you. When have you ever seen me acting intimately with other women?”Jason believed that he would never have any second thoughts in this as
His tone sounded indifferent, which made Miya wonder if he was angry because she had insisted on not letting him come with her.She felt that things were progressing too quickly. How could she take Jason back to meet her parents after only a week of dating? Moreover, he even wanted to take her back home to meet his parents the day after they had just confirmed their relationship. There were so many variables in the future, so she wanted to take things step by step to feel at ease. There were indeed some differences in their understanding of how to deal with relationships.She did not know whether she was being too conservative or whether he was being too aggressive. Miya thought that they should communicate and have a good talk on this issue after she came back. It had been more than half a year since Miya had left home after the New Year. She used to work in Blackstone, and it was difficult for her to come back home because it was far away. She would only come home to visit her
Jason then hesitated for a moment and said, “Well…”“What’s wrong?” Miya asked puzzledly.Jason suddenly said, “I’m near Phoenix Street now. Can you come and meet me here?”Miya was dumbfounded. She was so shocked by his words that she was completely speechless. She thought that she had heard him wrongly, but his voice sounded clearly in her ear.“Miya? Miya, are you listening to me?”His voice carried a hint of anxiety, as if he was afraid that she would not meet him and would simply leave him there. When Miya came to her senses, she did not know whether she should be angry or feel sorry for him. She clenched her teeth and asked, “Why did you come here?”Jason felt relieved when he heard her responding to him. His voice was cheerful and affectionate as he replied, “I didn't want to be away from you. I don’t feel at ease to leave you alone either.”Miya asked him indignantly, “Why would you worry? I’m just coming back to my parents’ house.”He said very seriously on the other
“Dad, this is my boyfriend, Jason Maton.”She then said to Jason, “This is my dad.”Jason quickly greeted Henry with a smile, “Hello, Mr. Carter.”Henry glanced at Jason, nodded in response, and said to Miya, “Why are you standing downstairs? Take Jason upstairs.”He turned around and left after saying that. Based on her father’s expression, Miya was initially afraid that her father would not allow her to bring Jason into their house. Jason also sighed in relief, then he turned around, opened his car trunk, and took out the gifts that Miya had not accepted and carried it upstairs with her. Henry had already taken an elevator up first, whereas Miya and Jason took another one.When they were in the elevator, Jason, who was carrying the gifts, leaned against the elevator wall and said quietly to Miya, “I was so nervous just now that even my palms were sweating.”He was really nervous. In fact, Jason had never felt so nervous in his life. Miya glared at him angrily and said,
Miya was speechless, and she turned around to go to her bedroom to clean up. Jason followed her in, closed the door, and hugged her from the back as he said quietly, “In fact, what I want most is for you to sleep here with me.”Miya was standing by the bed as she planned to help him change a new set of bedding. Her face felt slightly hot when he said such shameless words, so she protested, “You’re really shameless.”He pretended not to notice her hints and was now saying that he wanted to sleep with her after succeeding in staying over at her parents’ house. Wasn’t this shameless? Jason took advantage of the situation when Miya stood next to the bed to push her onto the bed. He pressed her under his body as he said in a deep voice in her ear, “You slept on this bedsheet, didn’t you? You don’t need to change it. I’ll just pretend as if you’re sleeping with me.”His gesture was too ambiguous, so Miya raised her hand to push him away, but he kissed her. She moaned softly and could no
