Returning to the dining table, looking at William Jackson’s mother’s eyes and smiling smile made her embarrassed. When she came home in a Jennifer Martinez state. At a glance, this marriage was as solid as a nail. She sighed and spoke up.
"Parents, can you let me decide on my marriage?"Her father frowned at her, knowing her father was short-tempered, so her mother spoke first."Jennifer Martinez. Everything parents can let you decide, but in a big marriage, you have to listen to your parents."Jennifer Martinez replied: "I don’t understand why the current times still impose on my marriage?"Her mother said… "You will not understand. Parents only want the best for their children. William Jackson is a good man, the one who deserves you. This matter has been decided by parents, and will never change whether you like it or not."Jennifer Martinez really does not know what he is good at, but her parents always insist that William Jackson is the best and most deserving of her. She said emphatically: "Anyway, I’m still young, I do not want to get married."Her mother replied: "You are grown up, sooner or later you have to get married. Moreover, the two families have been very good so far, this predestined relationship seems to be destined by God. As for your marriage, your parents have also considered it carefully before making a decision."Jennifer said: "I'm still young, but mom, I still have many dreams and ambitions of mine."Her father then interrupted: "He’s not young anymore, the family over there can’t wait for you."She contradicted her father’s words: "Dad, there are a lot of other men.""You? Are you going to make your parents angry?"Then her father hugged his chest. Jennifer Martinez knew her father’s illness, so she didn’t say anything more, asking permission to go up to her room. Step by step up the stairs, how heavy each step. Perhaps her whole life she could not have imagined that her marriage would be arranged, marrying someone she did not love, the heavy feeling that weighed on her small heart like a big iceberg. In her heart, she also knew that it was impossible to avoid this arranged marriage. But still, she really didn’t commit......The next evening, when the whole family was about to have dinner, Jennifer Martinez remembered her appointment with William Jackson. Immediately, she ran to her room to change into a neat outfit and then drove herself out of the house.Jennifer Martinez’s mother came down from the room and did not see her, so she asked the maid."Sister Laura, where is Jennifer Martinez?"Aunt Laura is the longtime maid of this house. Hearing Jennifer Martinez’s mother say that, aunt replied:"I don’t know, the owner just took the bag and drove out."Jennifer Martinez’s mother sighed. "It’s time to eat, but where is she going?"*********Jennifer Martinez’s car stopped in front of a high-class restaurant. As soon as she entered the restaurant, she saw William Jackson wearing a white shirt sitting next to the window, leisurely drinking white wine. The table was full of delicious food, beautifully decorated. The restaurant should have been crowded at this hour, but there was no sign of anyone, she guessed correctly, he had already paid the restaurant’s revenue today, so there wasn’t a single customer.Jennifer Martinez took a deep breath, gently walked over to William Jackson, a special scent wafted out that made her feel very comfortable. There is a fact she does not want to deny, she is a person who loves perfumes, even her wardrobe has many world-famous perfumes, but they are all inferior to the perfume William Jackson is using on her body. She gently asked him: "Can I sit?"William Jackson looked up at her, gently put the wine glass on the table, and said softly:"Please sit naturally. Anyway, we are also husband and wife in the future, no need to be polite."Then William Jackson put a glass of wine in front of Jennifer Martinez, she glanced at it with a hesitant attitude, he smirked slightly and said: "Don’t worry, the wine is not poisonous."Jennifer Martinez smiled slightly at him, gently raised the wine glass, extremely elegantly took a sip of wine, immediately, the sweet aroma spread like it was seeping into each blood vessel. She silently praised this as a top-class wine. After that, she tried to restore her usual composure and coolness, and slowly said:"The wine is already drunk, what do you want to tell me?"Contrary to Jennifer Martinez’s hasty attitude,William Jackson is very leisurely, lazily leaning on the sofa, looking out the window and saying:"You see, the sky is very beautiful tonight, isn’t it?"She suppressed her anger and replied:"William, you invited me to come out here to watch the stars with you. Why are you so free?"William teased her:"You guessed it."Without letting her speak, he lowered his head and kissed her lips as if he wanted to punish her words just now. She used all her strength and pushed him away, she shouted."Are you crazy?"He smirked, smiling."I don’t think it’s crazy for me to kiss my wife."Jennifer Martinez was about to get up and leave when suddenly he said:"I want to tell you about the agreement between me and you. After getting married, you and I prove happy with both sides of our families. But we have private lives, it’s up to me who I fall in love with or who I date. And so should you. Within 2 years, if either of us has feelings for the other party first, that person will lose, will have to follow the request of the winner, including a divorce request."Jennifer Martinez indifferently replied to him: "Okay, I agree to your suggestion. But..."After that, Jennifer Martinez stood up and put her hands on the table, bent down in front of him and whispered."I’m just afraid you love me. I will definitely make you less confident."Jennifer Martinez knew that she would definitely not be able to love him, so she boldly said those words. But she couldn’t know that he was the one who changed her opinion.William Jackson stared at Jennifer Martinez again, the smile of interest on his lips was getting stronger, and there was a flash of appreciation in his eyes. It wasn’t until she got up to walk, the shadow also disappeared behind the door, that his eyes turned in another direction.Minerva took a deep breath, feeling the fresh air, and returned to her room to pack her clothes. On the table there are two plane tickets to Vietnam that have been prepared in advance. To make this decision, she had to think carefully. Life here is really good, but New York is not a place where she can thrive. Returning to Vietnam, she will have more opportunities here, partly because of the congruence in the language, partly because she wants to spend more time taking care of her children. “Mom!” From the outside, the voice of a child resounded inside. The door to the room opened, and a boy about 5 or 6 years old rushed in and hugged his leg. The child looked at his mother and whined. “Mom, I folded all my clothes. Mom let me play." She stopped and hugged Harold in her arms and said: “Harold is very good. Let's just go play." She lightly kissed Harold's cheek then sat Harold down on the bed and continued to arrange the things. Harold obediently did not disturb her, but took o
Seven years later. 7:30 p.m. The World group. Outside in the hustle and bustle, reporters gathered in groups of people, the sound of cameras resounded non-stop. All lights are focused on the company gate. After seven years of starting to build the project, The World group and its partner DCT were finally successful and put into use. But today's main character is not Andrew but Deputy Director Jay. Currently, Andrew is managing the company in the branch, such a successful project is all thanks to Jay's efforts. Such an important day certainly Andrew cannot be absent. He bought a congratulatory gift for the company to put in the office and then went to the party with everyone. There are many important partners today, so Jay is quite busy. He had to wait a long time before he had a chance to talk to Jay privately. The two walked to an empty place, he was the first to speak: "Congratulations! This project is really excellent.” Jay laughs. “You don't have to compliment. This project
Leaving the people's court, Andrew drove to the nursing home to meet his mother. Now he has no mind for work, coming home to an empty house just feels bored. He needed a place to express his feelings. After more than 30 minutes on the road, the car stopped in front of Hanh Phuc nursing home. Parked the car in the parking lot, he brought the fruit basket prepared to go inside. Prevention 357. The creaking sound of rusty hinges resounded. His mother sat across from the window, staring blankly into the distance. Standing at the door looking at his mother, almost every time he came here, he saw this scene. He didn't understand what was so interesting about the big bleak blue sky out there that his mother liked to look at it like that. Whether it was sunrise or sunset, his mother always liked to watch it intently. Although he wondered in his heart, he never once asked his mother the reason. He approached his mother, gently placed the fruit basket on the table and asked: “Why a
In the afternoon. Minerva sat on the hospital bed, her eyes on the window, watching the sunset outside. Right now she only felt an empty space, not only in her heart but also in the place where her child had grown. Minerva put her hand on her stomach, her eyelids drooping and choking: “I'm sorry! Sorry for not protecting You. Sorry for not fulfilling my responsibilities as a mother. I'm sorry!" She clutched her stomach tightly. The pain of losing a child was still there, still clinging to her. She should have been more careful, should have protected the baby better, things wouldn't have happened this way. She blamed herself for being stupid and weak for not doing anything good. She really is a useless person. Tears rolled down her cheeks, her eyes were red and swollen, her hands still clutching her stomach. Even she herself can't comfort herself at this time, so how can she lift her spirits? “Stop blaming yourself. It's not all your fault." A man's low voice broke the
"I set you free." After saying those words, she smiled at him. Obviously trying to hide the pain, but his eyes were the exact opposite. Her black face at this time was deeply sad, her eyelids were swollen from crying a lot. To say these words, she must have mustered up all her courage. Maybe he didn't know how she felt when she heard the news that her son had died. At that time, she seemed to be dumbfounded, her mind spinning, thinking only of following her child. She felt like a failure with herself. The child she carried in her womb but could not protect. Waking up from a long coma, she curled up on the bed motionless. She cried so much that she couldn't breathe, her heart hurt so much it almost stopped beating. From the bottom of her soul, she felt extremely empty. She was unable to fulfill her motherhood. The pain that had just subsided not long ago, once again flared up when she saw him. The marriage of two people started from one side. When he was concerned, worri
Suddenly, the door of the room suddenly opened and his father came in from the outside. His father walked over to the chair and sat down across from him. It seems that his father doesn't care about the look on his face right now. "How did you deal with your divorce?" He clenched his fists tightly and looked at his father with cold eyes. “Didn't I tell you to wait? I know how to handle my own affairs.” His father leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms over his chest and sighed. “I don't see You being aggressive about the divorce. You should remember I'm not a patient person, can't wait long." He just listened, didn't respond. The large hand soon clenched into a fist. "After all, it's just a girl, if you don't marry one person, you will marry another. Now there is no shortage of women, as long as you want to, there will definitely be someone better than Minerva.” His father laughed proudly at what him said. The pain in his heart has not yet subsided, and now someone h
