The next morning, Tammy stared blankly at the figure lying on her living room carpet. The room was so messy with a dozen beer cans, and even peanut shells scattered on the coffee table, sofa, and carpet as well.
The room was very messy, and the one who should be responsible for the mess was the person lying on the carpet. Of course, Jessica wasn't the only one who downed twelve cans of beer last night. Tammy also drank with the blonde woman, but the one who was drunk last night was the blonde woman. That's why the blonde woman was causing chaos in the living room in her drunken state.Yesterday, Jessica even said she wanted to have genital surgery, but of course, that was just the blonde woman's nonsense and not really what she wanted to do.Tammy shook her head tiredly when she recalled all those bad memories, but then she used her foot to nudge the older woman's shoulder. She intended to wake the woman up, but the woman only groaned like a child before muttering, "Why are you kissing my shoulder instead of my lips, Nu? These are my lips in case you forgot. Here, here, come and kiss me immediately."Tammy furrowed her eyebrows when she saw how the blonde woman made a kissy face in front of her. The blonde woman deliberately pursed her lips while asking for a kiss. Her eyes were still closed, and Tammy knew the woman wasn't awake yet.The way Jessica said the nickname "Nu" was easy for Tammy to understand. She knew Jessica used to call her husband by that nickname, and she also knew that the blonde woman wouldn't use that nickname if she were truly sober.Tammy assumed that Jessica probably forgot what happened yesterday, and she felt bad before saying, "Just in case you forgot, your husband cheated on you yesterday. He has a lover behind your back, and that person is a man. To make it worse, your husband refused to divorce you. Just in case you forgot, your husband insists on using you to cover up his relationship with that man."Even though Tammy felt bad seeing her friend's condition, she remained frank when reminding her friend about everything that happened yesterday. As a result, Jessica's blue eyes finally widened in surprise, and she looked blank for a moment before starting to wail.The blonde woman looked like a child throwing a tantrum and even kicked everything within her reach while lying down on the carpet. The messy room was even messier because of her actions, and Tammy looked frustrated while helplessly scratching her head, which wasn't actually itchy."Calm yourself, sis. If you continue to act like this, you will only look pathetic when your husband can live happily with his boyfriend. If you want to take revenge on your husband, then you have to appear strong and happy. Show him that you can live without him," Tammy voiced a suggestion in the end, and Jessica finally stopped what she was doing.The blue-eyed woman even got up from her lying position on the carpet and sat cross-legged like an obedient child. "I think you're right. Even though I can't get a divorce for now, I will still show that bastard that I can also be happy even if he doesn't love me," she decided while nodding her head firmly.There was determination in those blue eyes for a moment, and Tammy almost nodded her head in response to that statement. However, before she had time to move her head, the expression on the older woman's face suddenly changed again, and the woman even rushed to hug her legs. Of course, that surprised her."He doesn't love me, Tam! He doesn't love me even though I love him very much! He chooses a man over me! That man is just muscle and doesn't have a soft body at all, but Noah chose to love him!"Jessica let out a series of complaints at the end, and this time, Tammy used her hands to massage her aching temples. Usually, she woke up in a calm morning, then she drank a cup of coffee to start the day. Usually, everything was calm, but today the apartment felt like it had been hit by a storm. Everything was upside down, and it made her dizzy."Get off me and get ready to go to work today, Jess!" Tammy no longer tried to be polite to the older woman. "You lost your husband yesterday even though not physically, and I wonder if you want to lose your job too. If you really want to lose your job, then you can continue whining in my apartment today instead of going to work. There's an important meeting at the company today, and if you miss it, you'll definitely lose your job."Finally, Jessica let go of Tammy's legs, and her blue eyes widened again in surprise. "I don't want to lose my job!" She answered firmly.Of course, Tammy could have guessed the answer because she knew how much Jessica loved her job, and that was why she nodded in satisfaction after hearing the decision."But I still need your help, Tam," the blonde woman spoke again, and when she saw her assistant furrow her brows at her, she continued, "Please let me stay at your place for a few days before I find a place to stay temporarily. "Tammy looked confused, but then she asked, "You're not going home to be with your husband?""No," the blonde woman shook her head without hesitation. "I'll still go back to his place every once in a while in case there's a check-up from our parents, but I won't stay there every day. I want to minimize the time when I have to meet him. I'll go see him just for the sake of our parents."Tammy listened carefully to her friend's decision, but it seemed like she suddenly felt curious about something before deciding to ask, "If you don't want to live at his place anymore, what if your husband brings his boyfriend to live with him? What if your husband and his boyfriend make love in the bed where you usually make love with your husband?"Almost a week had passed since the incident at the hotel when Jessica found out that her husband was actually a dick and liked dicks. People said time would heal pain, but those days were not enough to heal the distress in her heart. The wound was still scarred in her heart, which was why she refused to see her husband's face after what happened between them nearly a week ago. Thankfully, there was still good news amidst the bad news she found at that time. The good news was that her father would be released from the hospital tomorrow. The doctor told her that her father's condition had improved during his nearly two weeks of hospitalization, and that was why he had let him rest at home to recover. Unfortunately, the doctor also warned Jessica to pay attention to her father's mood during the recovery period. That was the reason Jessica had to admit that Noah wasn't wrong in what he said at the hotel a week ago. They couldn't just divorce if Jessica didn't want to see her father in a
Button Boss was one of the biggest fashion companies in the US, and it was even well-known abroad in the last decade. This company had been around for half a century, and that was the reason why it had been able to gain the trust and love of the people. Button Boss specialized in men's fashion. They produced clothes, shoes, and even bags designed for men. However, unlike other brands in the same field, Button Boss was quite bold in its color choices. Other men's fashion brands mostly used dark colors for their products, but Button Boss often used bright colors for their products. That was why Jessica's wardrobe was full of her husband's colorful menswear, and her husband today wore one of his brightly colored suits. The purple plaid suit was nothing new in her eyes, and Jessica almost covered her face in embarrassment after confirming that it was indeed her husband who was wearing the suit. "What are you doing here?" Coldly, Jessica asked the brown-haired man. However, instead of
The fact that she had to work with her husband after an affair was already a disaster, and now she had to work with her husband's boyfriend too. If she could, she would just pull out every strand of her husband's hair from his scalp until he was bald. Let's see whether the guy will still be handsome or not if he is bald.She could actually do that, but she didn't mean to make a fuss at all. Instead of causing cheap drama in a packed restaurant, she simply signaled to her husband that they should order first, and that was why she raised her hand to call one of the waiters. However, she would probably spit out everything she swallowed if she ate in front of her husband and her husband's boyfriend, and that was why she only ordered drinks.The two men were shameless about ordering the most expensive menu. After all, the person who arranged the meeting was the one who had to pay, and that was why the responsibility lay with Jessica's company. She tried hard not to use the knife in front o
"Three of us?" Jessica was surprised and displeased to hear her husband's words. She was about to continue questioning the brown-haired man, but then a waiter arrived at their table to deliver their order. Jessica was forced to hold back her curiosity when the waiter placed their order on the table. She only ordered a drink when the two men sitting across from her ordered a nice meal, and her stomach suddenly made a sound of protest. Of course, her stomach didn't like when she could only look at the delicious food that didn't belong to her, but she tried to hold back her hunger while thanking the waiter. When the waiter left, Jessica could hear her husband talking to his boyfriend. “Oh, we forgot to tell the waiter not to put parsley in your soup. Now, I have to get the parsley out of your soup, right?” Noah asked his boyfriend in his deep yet gentle voice, and Jessica couldn't help but frown when she heard what he said. She could then see how her husband picked up his spoon befor
The first time Jessica heard Tammy voice her theory about the possibility of Noah bringing his boyfriend to live with him at his apartment, she felt both sad and annoyed. At that time, she didn't even respond to what her assistant said to her, and that was because her heart was too hurt. However, today when she voiced the same theory in front of her husband and his boyfriend, she felt nothing in her heart, and it seemed like it was true that her heart had gone numb after continuously feeling hurt because of her husband. She could even come to her husband's apartment tonight. Of course, her intention was not to stay in that place permanently, and she would only take her belongings before she could leave that place completely. It was a shame for her because she had been living at Noah's apartment since they got married. Before they got married, she rented an apartment, but then she left that place and lived with her husband instead. Today, she quite regretted her decision to leave he
Visiting time at the hospital had passed several hours ago, but Jessica and Noah were allowed into the room where Jessica's father had been staying for almost two weeks.Yes, Jessica was forced to bring Noah with her when visiting her father because her father asked them to come together tonight. It was indeed her father who called her when she was at Noah's apartment, and instead of giving her bad news, the old man asked her to come to the hospital tonight with her husband.Of course, Jessica didn't know what the old man would say to her, but she came anyway. She also had no choice but to let her husband stand next to her beside the hospital bed where her father lay weak.“You rarely come to visit me, you ungrateful brat!” The old man lying in the hospital bed greeted his daughter with a scolding instead of welcoming her warmly.“Relax, Dad,” Jessica answered the old man. “You may leave this place tomorrow, but if you continue to raise your tone when talking to me, your next destinat
Jessica was the only child in her family. Patricia's condition was said to not allow her to have a second child after giving birth to Jessica thirty-three years ago, and that was why she and her husband could only raise one child even though they actually wanted to have another child. That was also the reason why they had been spoiling Jessica so much since she was a baby. They never let their daughter suffer, and they always tried to grant their daughter's wishes if it was within their reach. They also let their daughter do the things she wanted to do, including becoming a photographer instead of choosing a more stable job in the city. Even when they had the idea of introducing a man to their daughter, they did not force her daughter to accept the man immediately. Instead, they allowed their daughter to reject the man if she wanted to. Something similar happened almost four years ago when they first introduced Noah to their daughter. At that time, they asked their daughter's opini
It seemed like a serious warning from Luke, but Jessica suddenly frowned before saying, “You make it sound like you have a lot to give us, Dad. You sound like a dying rich man who has a lot of property that you can give to your daughter and son-in-law, but I know that our family is not that rich. It can even be said that we are poor, so please stop being dramatic, Dad.”“…” This time, it was Luke who looked stunned after hearing Jessica's words.It seemed that the old man was speechless by what his daughter had just said, but his daughter did not look guilty. After all, Jessica knew very well about her family situation. They were just an ordinary family, not too rich and not too poor. Their house was not too big and not too small, and they only owned two cars, one of which was bought with installments that had not yet been paid off. They didn't live luxuriously, even Jessica's mother didn't wear too much jewelry.That was the reason why Jessica facepalmed when she realized that her fa
