Chapter 27 Please Take Me In
"It's him, he's my boyfriend." Bess ran to Jack and pulled him to the driver's car, she stretched out her hand and said to him, "do you have money? I don't have any money with me, but I have to pay the driver"
Jack was taken confusedly to the drive, he never thought that Bess would ask him for money when they met for the first time after six years! 'She was till so shameless.'
Jack, who had just realized what had happened, looked at Bess in front of him and knew that he was not dreaming. He took out 10 dollars from the wallet and handed it to the driver. "Here you are." He kept staring at Bess and didn't dare to move his eyes away.
"Thank you very much, you are so kind. I'll call you again in the future." Bess said sincerely. She felt really sorry, but she didn't expect that Jack wouldn't come back until midnight.
"Come with me." Jack pulled Bess aside and interrupted her. He looked at Bess a little annoyed, trying to give her a chance to give him a reasonable explanation.
"I was kicked out, and I went out without a penny, almost being homeless on the street. If it weren't for Cary had given me your address, I would really have to sleep on the street tonight. I know that you don't want me to do that, and I have no other choice but to come to you. If you don't accept me, you will never see me in the future." Bess said it all at once, she spoke those words to Jack in fear that he would regret it.
"I won't take you in," said Jack without any mercy, looking at Bess, the pitiful weeping girl in front of him. His face was extremely cold, which she had never seen in the past six years. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
"You will!" Bess looked into Jack's eyes and said with stubbornness.
"My girlfriend will be angry if I take you in." Jack just wanted to make Bess angry, why did she leave him without a word before and now she showed up without a word in front of him again? It was her who wanted to leave and then meet him again. Was she so sure for six years that he wouldn't get married or couldn't find a girlfriend?
"I don't care, Jack, if you don't take me in, I will be homeless."
"Enough! Bess, you can't be so selfish forever. Everyone has his own life and won't break it for your willfulness, so I really have no reason to care about you. When will you come back? Why do you run away from home and why are you homeless? I don't care about all of these." Jack interrupted Bess angrily, he hated his own thoughts to be laughed at by Bess again. He didn't want to lose her again.
Ignoring Bess who was froze with shock, Jack walked upstairs quickly and didn't turn around to look at her, since he was afraid that he would really soften his heart to take her in. Then he would fall into the swamp again, deeper and deeper, and finally breathed to death
Bess knew that what did her leaving without saying a word to Jack six years ago mean to him, but she had never forgotten him in the past six years, and she firmly believed that he would not forget her either. She had foreseen Jack's reaction, but she still felt heartbroken at his words.
Of course, Bess would not give up easily, she wiped her tears and followed Jack into the building. She went to the door of his room and gently knocked on the door. "Jack, could you please let me stay for a night? Tomorrow I will find another place to live, okay?"
Bess begged outside the door, while Jack painfully closed his eyes. He didn't want to talk to her, but he was afraid that she would really leave here and go to other places.
The knock on the door gradually faded away, Jack felt panicked again. If she really left at two o'clock in the middle night, what if she met a bad guy outside? He finally lost his mind and opened the door and wanted to go out to find Bess, even if she would laugh at himself for he was still so stupid.
"Jack, where are you going?" "Bess had been knocking on the door for a long time, so she was tired and wanted to have a rest at the door. But she didn't expect that when she was about to fall asleep, Jack opened the door and rushed out like a lunatic. Was he suffering from somnambulism after six years of separation?
Jack rushed out of the elevator, without paying attention to Bess behind the door, he was about to press the elevator button and was stopped by a familiar voice behind him. At that moment, he knew it was he who lost again, six years had passed, but he was still tricked by her, he was really not promoted.
"Well... I'm going out to exercise!" Jack pretended to be calm and refused to look back.
"Ha ha, do you want to exercise in pajamas? Your hobbies during these years became very strange, and you didn't close the door." Bess smiled and looked at Jack who was awkward, she picked up the guitar and went into the door. "Thank you for taking me in." She said.
Jack didn't expect Bess to enter his house in this way, he rushed directly into the house without taking any exercise and said to Bess who was looking around, "I didn't say I would take you in, you should go out right now."
Without sparing a glance at Jack, Bess walked straight to the couch, and she leaned her guitar on it and began to look around again.
"Where's your girlfriend?" Bess just ignored Jack's words and asked him instead.
Jack was rendered speechless, he was about to speak when Bess interrupted him, "It doesn't matter, I don't mind. Let me sleep on the sofa tonight, and don't pity me. After all, this is your house." Looking at the Jack who looked disappointed, Bess couldn't help laughing in her heart. 'I hadn't seen him looked like such a fool for a long time.'
Jack didn't expect that Bess would be so shameless, there was nothing he could do with her, so he had to go back to his room to sleep.
"I won't disturb you and you can exercise whenever you want." Bess couldn't help but added. 'He really couldn't forget me.'
Jack was amused while also a little bit annoyed, his disguise could never escape Bess's eyes.
Fortunately, they still had feelings for each other, although they had been suffering a lot. They had been separated for six years, and they were still trying to figure out each other's feelings. Who knew for sure that whether time was the best decision for them? They had been beloved before being apart for six years, and no one could control their feelings after these years. Time was always the best judge, and the mature people should make the best decision.
The next day when Bess got up, Jack had already gone. Looking at the blanket that was covered on her body, she smiled. He must have made breakfast for her!
She stood up and went to the dining room, as expected, there was a breakfast on the table.
Bess, who had been taken in Jack's own home, walked into the bathroom with a self-conscious, ignored the prepared toothbrush and cups of Jack and began to rub toothpaste on his toothbrush. She wanted to spoil all of his things in order to make his room full of her own marks!
After stirring up all the mess in Jack's house, Bess finally realized that she seemed to have done something wrong, she must escape from the scene of the crime, so she went out with her guitar.
