“It’s fine. We can make it in time.” After Ryan had brought the dishes to the table, he saw Mireya lying on the same spot without moving a muscle. Hence, he carried her over.
Jerry snorted and glared at Mireya. “Don’t you have legs? Ryan, don’t spoil her.”
“It doesn’t matter. She must be exhausted after a long day at work. What’s more, she’s been quite busy with the new product launch lately.” Ryan continued to pamper Mireya.
“Hubby, thank you for your understanding.” Mireya gave him an air kiss.
The two of them used to be rather reserved. However, now that both their parents knew that they were in a relationship, they stopped hiding their behavior over time.
The hand that Forrest was holding a fork in trembled, and his handsome face darkened. “As a woman, can you be more reserved?”
She had started calling Ryan ¡®hubby’ even before they got married. Indeed, she was more shameless than that woman.
“Forrest, you’re such a dull person. That’s how young people these days call their boyfriends.” Mireya rolled her eyes at him.
¨C “Fine. Forrest will also start acting like this once he meets your future sister-in-law.” Ryan picked up Dani, who was slowly growing bigger. When fed some vegetables, she would eat with relish.
Forrest looked at Dani with mixed feelings.
After Mireya and Ryan finished their dinner, they left for a movie.
Jerry and Mrs. Lynch then put down their bowls. After Mrs. Lynch went upstairs to get changed, she pushed the stroller with Dani inside and went for a walk with Jerry.
All of a sudden, Forrest was the only person left in the spacious house.
Now, it dawned on him that everyone was in pairs…
He put down his bowl with a cold expression. After he went upstairs to take a bath, he left the house.
When he drove to the gate of Yancey Residence, he glanced at his phone, only to realize that it was 8:00 p.m.
If he went up now, Jessica might be under the impression that he hurried over after dinner, which would make him seem as though he cared about her.
After some thought, Forrest parked his car and strolled around a nearby park in the neighborhood.
The weather was slowly turning warm, so the park was bustling with noise. Some came in a family of three to enjoy the facilities at the park, and there were many middle-aged people dancing. There were even couples who were rowing the boats in the lake.
Forrest stuck his hands in his pockets as he walked past the arch bridge over the lake. Meanwhile, Jessica was running toward him from the other end. Her hair was tied in a bun, and a pair of sports earphones was on her shoulders. She was wearing a pair of sports shoes, a black sports bra, and leggings. She was dressed in a sun protection jacket without zipping it up, revealing her slender waist. Although it felt cooling to dress like this, her body was showing, and it looked extremely s**y.
When the two of them bumped into each other, Jessica was dazed.
Forrest’s eyes landed on her waist, and then his handsome face turned grim.
“Aren’t you supposed to be back at the Lynch family’s house for dinner?”
“Who allowed you to come out dressed like this?”
The two of them asked simultaneously.
With that, Forrest’s expression darkened even more. “Jessica, don’t forget that you’re married. Are you trying to seduce other men by coming out running dressed like that? Is it because I didn’t satisfy your needs and made you feel lonely?”
“….”
In the face of his insult, Jessica was speechless. “Believe it or not, a lot of women will lash out at you if you make such remarks in the gym.”
“I don’t care about other women. I only care about you,” Forrest said coldly. “Now that you’re married, please behave decently.”
“How am I indecent? Just because I revealed my waist?” Jessica took off her earphones. “I can tolerate you when you insult me at other times, but you can’t lump everything together. Many professional women dress this way for jogging too. What’s more, when I used to live abroad, everyone in the park also exposed their waists when they jogged. If you think I’m wrong, you can share my view on the Internet and see whether everyone agrees with you or me.”
“As I said, I only care about you.” Forrest was not so silly as to argue with her on the Internet. Surely, he would be attacked with insults.
In fact, he was aware that he was unreasonable.
He was not bothered about how other women dressed, but he could not take other men seeing her waist.
Furthermore, could she not be more self-aware?
She had such a wonderful figure and slender waist. On top of that, she was pretty. Many men walking past her had been shifting their eyes to her body. Not to mention, the crimes targeted at women had been on the rise over the last few years.
“Fine.”
Jessica nodded and zipped up her jacket. Then, she explained in a soft tone, “If you don’t like me dressing like this, you can tell me. I won’t be mad either. Since you care about how I dress, it shows that you’ve accepted me as your wife.”
“…Who said that?”
Forrest refuted huffily.
“If you haven’t accepted me, why are you interfering with how I dress?” Jessica purposely asked curiously. “You’re concerned about how I dress.”
Forrest’s temples throbbed. He suddenly felt as if he had shot himself in the foot. “Even if I don’t accept you, I’m not in the habit of being cuckolded because I find that d***y. Do you understand?”
Although Jessica was used to his coldness, she was, nevertheless, hurt once again. She lowered her eyes and did not speak.
With the moonlight falling on her, her slender body looked a little thin.
Annoyed, Forrest undid a few buttons on his shirt. “In any case, you’re not allowed to dress like this again when you’re out running.”
“Don’t worry. I won’t cuckold you.” Jessica suddenly revealed a faint smile. “If I end up in danger one day, I’d rather k**l myself than disgrace you, my husband.”
“Jessica Snow…”
Forrest was somewhat annoyed by her stubbornness.
Jessica put her headphones back on, lowered her head, and ran past him.
Forrest grabbed her arm and ordered, “You’re coming home with me.”
The man was strong, so Jessica was no match for him. He dragged body forcefully as they walked towards Yancey Residence.
The two people did not share a single word along the way.
When they entered the elevator, a middle-aged woman who lived upstairs caught up with them.
The woman looked at Forrest and then at Jessica before she suddenly laughed. “You finally found a girlfriend?”
Forrest turned his head over to look and remembered that the woman was his upstairs neighbor. They often bumped into each other when going to work in the morning and would chat occasionally. The woman also mentioned that she had a niece at home who was single and that she could introduce them to each other…
He glanced at the woman beside him and was hesitant about what to say when Jessica smiled. “We’re married.”
“Oh, so soon? Congratulations!” The woman was startled for a moment before she grinned. “You two look so affectionate. You’re even holding hands.”
“….”
Forrest looked down at his hand and realized that he had been holding onto her since they were at the park.
A hint of embarrassment flashed on his handsome face, and he immediately withdrew his hand subconsciously.
When the woman saw that, she laughed. “The young man is still quite shy. Don’t worry. I’ve seen my fair share of lovers in my day.”
“Ding.”
When the elevator opened, Forrest hurriedly walked out with his long legs.
Jessica smiled at the woman politely and then followed him.
After entering the house, her smile slipped away, and she went straight to the bedroom.
Seeing her cold attitude, Forrest became somewhat unhappy. He said offhandedly, “Who said you could tell others that we’re married?”
Jessica turned around. Under the light, the man’s stiff face looked like he was deliberately picking a fight.
Even saints had a temper.
