Chapter 513 Keep Eyes On Jay
Chapter 513 Keep Eyes On Jay
Unfortunately, it was much too noisy in the bar. It was hard enough for Jay to hear what Doris said, let alone Nancy's cough.
"What time are you going home?" Doris almost had to yell so Jay could hear her.
"Well, it seems like this social engagement won't be finished anytime soon. Go ahead, I'll go home right after this is over." Jay spoke in a loud voice. The music was too loud.
A sly look appeared on Doris' face. She smiled as she said, "Well, take your time. But don't drink too much. Otherwise, you might go home to the wrong house. Ha-ha!"
However, Jay didn't understand that Doris was mocking him. "Yes, I won't drink too much."
After a few seconds of silence, they ended the phone call. "Okay, then. Bye." After saying that, Doris hung up the phone. But she still held the phone in her hand. Her knuckles were white from clutching it too tightly. It was obvious how hard it was for her to endure that phone call.
"What the hell are you doing? Why are you abusing yourself like this?" Nancy scolded her. Doris obviously knew that Jay was in the bar. Yet, she still asked him about where he was. It was clear that Jay was lying to her.
Naturally, she was very angry. But she just pretended not to care about it at all.
Was it really self-abuse? Maybe it was.
"Aren't you the one who wanted me to call him?" Doris turned her back from Nancy.
"Yes, I did ask you to call him. But I wanted you to ask him to go home. Instead, you just pretended to understand him and allowed him to come home any time he wants. Is that really what you want? What
if he decides not to go home at all? Will you be okay with staying home alone tonight?" Needless to say, Nancy was furious that Doris had to go through this because of Jay.
"Why do I have to be alone? Don't I still have Ace?" Doris retorted. She faced Nancy again and said, "I've made up my mind. If Jay dares to fool around with other women, I'll just spend the rest of my life with Ace. We don't need him! It's better for that man to continue having fun outside. And while he's at it, I hope he catches some sort of disease! That's what he deserves! The person who does something bad must pay the price, right?" Doris spouted through gritted teeth.
"Wait, what... Doris, When did you become so vicious? At the end of the day, Jay is still Ace's father. If he does catch a disease, aren't you scared?"
"Humph! We're almost like strangers to each other now. Why should I be afraid?" Doris said derisively.
"Wow, you... You're really tough and that's great! You've convinced me." Nancy was almost rendered speechless by her tenacity and resolve.
After that, she drove Doris back home and then drove back to her own house.
When she arrived, the two kids were already fast asleep. However, Charles was still awake.
When Doris asked Nancy to go out with her, Charles was a little worried. He was afraid that Nancy would drink too much. This would affect the operation tomorrow. So he took a shower and sat on the sofa. He started reading some documents while waiting for Nancy.
When he heard the sound of a car pulling over in the courtyard, Charles straightened up and looked outside the window.
He was surprised when she saw Nancy coming out of Doris' car. He murmured to himself, "Why is Nancy driving Doris' car home?"
Just as he was about to go downstairs and take a look, he heard soft footsteps coming from the staircase. Soon enough, Nancy pushed the door open and came in.
Charles closed the file he was reading. He looked up and asked gently, "Welcome home, dear. It's late." He glanced at his watch. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening.
Nancy walked over and gave Charles a big hug.
"Hey, what's the matter? Did something happen?" Charles held Nancy's cold face and gazed into her eyes.
"Charles, if someday you don't love me or have no interest in me anymore, please don't go around finding another woman behind my back. Just tell me. Don't worry. I swear I will leave instantly and never bother you again."
Hearing this from Nancy made Charles a little confused. However, he just smiled. "Okay, what did you and Doris do tonight? Why are you suddenly saying all these strange things? Are you upset?"
Nancy pouted as she rested on Charles' chest. "Yes, a little." Nancy sighed and nodded.
"Oh? What is it? Tell me exactly what happened." Charles stood there and remained respectfully silent.
However, Nancy turned around and opened the wardrobe to find some clothes for Charles. "I don't have time to tell you everything right now. But in a nutshell, Jay is out drinking with other women in a bar. Obviously, Doris is really furious. So she's home alone. What a bastard! Doris just gave birth to his son. Why did he choose to go outside and drink with other women instead of being with his family? It's like he doesn't care about what Doris feels at all! It's fine if he just wants to drink. But who knows what'll happen next?" Nancy was deeply infuriated. "Doris is really angry, no, desperate now. So you go to that bar to watch over Jay. Don't let him do anything that will hurt Doris. Ugh! I'm so mad at Jay right now. I
want to stab him with a scalpel and take his heart out to see if it is broken or perhaps turned to black," she continued viciously.
Charles knew that Nancy was not the kind of woman who liked to compromise. She was not a fragile and weak woman. However, Nancy was also definitely not an evil woman. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Therefore, she never spoke so harshly. She would never say anything bad about a person. She rarely spoke so brazenly.
Nancy was kind and mature. She was considerate but with a hint of stubbornness. She could also be a little nifty and lively... In other words, Charles felt that every day with Nancy was an adventure. Even after all this time, she still managed to surprise him.
Moreover, Nancy also worked really hard to realize his value in her life.
There was no doubt that he loved everything about her!
Clearly, Nancy was just extremely angry when she uttered these words. Charles knew she didn't mean to threaten Jay.
"So did Jay cheat on Doris?" Charles asked her as she continued rummaging through their closet.
Nancy walked towards Charles and said, "I don't know whether he has already cheated on her or not. But he is out drinking with other women anyway. To me, that counts as cheating!" Nancy helped Charles take off his night robe and said, "You'd better hurry up. Something might happen if you get there too late."
"Aren't you reading too much into it? Maybe you're just overthinking things," he responded. Charles looked at his watch. It was already half past eleven in the evening. He had been working all day long. Needless to say, he was very tired.
All he wanted right now was to have a good night's sleep with his wife in his arms.
And besides, it was cold outside. Why did he had to go to a bar because of that brat, Jay?
"It doesn't matter whether I'm thinking too much of it or not. Just go and have a look. By the way, don't tell him that I asked you to go. Just tell him that you can't sleep so you thought of coming to the bar to have fun. And you just happened to bump into him there, okay?" Nancy instructed Charles. She had to do something for Doris' sake.
"Anything for you, my dear wife." Charles sighed helplessly.
"We are not married yet. So you are not allowed to call me 'wife' from now on, okay?" Nancy turned his back on him and sat on the sofa.
"Oh, come on. Don't be so unreasonable, Nancy. I'm not the one who goes out looking for another woman. Why are you angry with me? This isn't fair, you know." Charles looked at her with a sad expression on his face.
"Well, it's hard to say for now. Don't you know there's a saying that 'He who lies down with the dogs must rise up with fleas'?" Nancy contested.
"I know. I also know that birds of the same feather flock together. So what you just said is that I'm the same kind of person as Jay. But my surname is Fu, and his is Fang. We are good friends, but we have different genes. How can you say that I'll be finding other women too just because he does?" While putting on his clothes, Charles tried to defend himself. It's not fair that Nancy was thinking of him like this too.
"It seems that you have forgotten about another popular proverb. They say that men are animals that think with their private parts, remember?" Nancy spouted more words that belittled men.
Feeling annoyed, Charles answered, "Okay, stop it, Nancy. I get it. I'll go to the bar immediately. And don't worry. As long as I'm here, I won't allow Jay to cheat on Doris. I won't even let him talk with other women, okay?"
"Okay, if you say so! Thank you, Charles." Nancy felt amused and comforted by what he said.
With that, Charles donned his black leather coat and walked out of the room lazily.
Meanwhile, Nancy struggled for a while to process everything that happened. She was so tired. Slowly, she walked into the bathroom to take a nice and warm bath.
During this time, Jay was still drinking in the bar.
