Our happiness was always as fleeting as a meteor.
And the paintings I drew for him.
Sean looked so good on each one.
Did I have no chance to draw him again?
My mood was very complicated.
While I was packing, Daisy came back from the company. She saw things at home and frowned, “does
Sean really want to break up with you?”
“Yes.”
I wanted to get married before, but he refused. He may have been thinking about how to end the
relationship.
Daisy didn’t go on because she saw that I wasn’t happy. She put her arms around my neck and said,
“forget it. You cleaned the house for me. He doesn’t love you but I love you. Tell me what you want to
eat at night. It’s my treat. It’s a reward for helping me clean my house.”
“No...”
“Don’t refuse me. I will go abroad again in less than half a month. I’ll be busy during Christmas. Foreign
food is too bad. You can eat with me.”
Daisy interrupted me as soon as she knew I was going to refuse.
“OK.”
I promised her.
Daisy’s phone rang while we were choosing where to eat.
It was Jack.
Daisy hesitated for a long time and answered the phone. She turned on the speakers and said coldly,
“what’s up?”
“Daisy, I heard that you and June were the only two people for your birthday, so I chose a special place
today. I prepared a cake for you. Can I celebrate another birthday for you?”
Jack over the phone was very attentive.
“No.” Daisy refused directly.
“I’ve made a reservation.” Jack often said that.
Daisy wanted to say no, but she glanced at me and said, “Okay, call Sean.”
“Ah?” Jack froze for a moment, but he quickly responded, “OK, no problem! I’ll ask him!”
Jack finished and hung up.
The result was conceivable.
Sean wouldn’t come.
Jack kept pestering Daisy. At last Daisy asked him to meet directly at a hot pot restaurant.
Although Jack was reluctant, he agreed.
She chose a high-end hot pot restaurant with boxes.
Jack sat down and ordered a lot of food after we went in.
At last he took a bottle of champagne out of the bag.
I didn’t understand, but Daisy became very happy. “Louis Roederer Cristal?”
“Haha, you are an expert.”
When Daisy recognized it, Jack was more proud.
After we ordered, the waiter asked, “what kind of bottom would you like, please?”
“Double.” Jack said.
“All spicy.” Daisy said.
Their answers were totally different.
Jack looked at Daisy. “I can’t eat spicy food.”
“I have the final say on my birthday.” Daisy didn’t seem to want to change.
Jack had no choice but to agree.
Although Jack looked like a playboy, he and Daisy had a good chat today. I sat next to them and
couldn’t join in.
I didn’t speak and ate all the time.
Soon we finished a bottle of champagne. Jack wanted some wine but Daisy refused. She asked for
some beers.
I didn’t handle alcohol well so when I finished supper I was almost drunk.
But Daisy seemed to be happy.
Jack suggested going to the bar, and Daisy immediately agreed!
I wanted to persuade Daisy, but she didn’t listen to me and wanted to take me with her.
We went to a bar. Jack ordered a very expensive drink directly.
I was afraid Daisy would be drunk and no one would take care of her, so I didn’t drink too much.
Daisy had been persuading me. I could only make excuses to go to the bathroom and left.
As soon as I got out of the box and stood in the corridor for a while, I saw a very tall man come out of a
box. When the man saw me, he smiled and leaned over. “Isn’t this Mrs. Jessop?”
Ward.
I didn’t expect to see him here, so I turned around and wanted to leave.
He was tall and caught up with me. He stooped and looked at me and said, “Miss Carter, why are you
running? Did you come here with President Jessop?”
“No.”
Ward looked at me and said meaningfully, “I thought Miss Carter came here with President Jessop, so I
was going to take you to his box.”
Was Sean here, too?
Although people could only drink here, there were actually additional services. I just stood in the
corridor for a while and saw a lot of “princesses” and guests passing by.
Then they went into a bathroom.
What they would do was self-evident.
Ward saw that I didn’t speak and was not surprised, “although Miss Carter didn’t come here with
President Jessop, you must also want to go to President Jessop’s box to have a look.”
“No.” I refused immediately.
Ward didn’t speak and moved forward. As he walked, he said, “I’ll go and say hello to President
Jessop.”
I knew he said that to make me follow him.
Though I hesitated for a while, Ward was tall and dressed in a white suit. He would be seen no matter
how far he went.
I followed him unconsciously.
I saw him enter a box.
When he got in, the door didn’t close completely.
I stood far away and looked in. I didn’t know if it was a coincidence. I could see Sean from that angle.
He was only wearing a shirt and two gorgeous women were sitting next to him with their breasts resting
on him.
He just sat and didn’t refuse.
He held a crystal cup in one hand and slowly shook the ice in it.
I stood there and froze.
Was this Sean’s life after I left?
It seemed that I was really a burden to him.
I saw it, but I made an excuse for him and stood at the door watching.
I hoped he could actively push away the women around him or hate them.
But I stood there for a long time, and Sean silently accepted the offer of those women and didn’t refuse
it.
Then a woman stood up and sat on his legs. She clasped her hands around his neck.
When I wanted to see Sean’s reaction, a man came out of the door and closed it.
“Mrs. Jessop, you’re still here.”
Ward looked at me and there was something evil in his three-dimensional eyes.
I was a little embarrassed. Thinking of that scene, I immediately said, “I’m not Mrs. Jessop. I’m just one
of President Jessop’s lovers. And he hates what I look like now.”
When I said that, I was depressed.
