Only Stony said happily, “Okay, Mr. Jaquan, will you be staying with us then?”
Jaquan held him in his arms, “Of course we will live together, just like we used to … do so.”
He deliberately implied the time when Emma stayed at his home as cohabitation.
The expressions of Deon and Bernice instantly changed. Deon glared at him, while Bernice’s eyes lit up, filled with joy and gratification and without any disgust or hatred.
Noticing Bernice’s gaze, Jaquan pondered for a moment and then said, “Of course, if there are some inconveniences, I’ll rent a house by myself outside. It’s fine. Anyway…,” He looked at Emma with determination, “I will be with her anywhere.”
Hearing that, Bernice was deeply touched.
Emma also pinched her palm awkwardly.
Stony quietly whispered to Jaquan, “Actually, Mom doesn’t hate you at all.”
“I know.” Jaquan smiled bitterly. It took him a lot of effort to find out this.
“She even called your name in her dreams.” Stony continued.
“Is that so?” Jaquan smiled with his eyes fixated on Emma.
Emma frowned under his gaze and turned around to walk out.
Jaquan greeted Felice and Allen, then carried Stony and followed.
“Wait for me!”
Emma walked to the car door and then she said in a muffled voice, “What exactly are you going to do?”
Jaquan put Stony down, “I want to talk to your mother.”
Stony got the point. He then took a few steps in and went to look for Felice and Allen. Seeing Stony rushing over, Deon thought that he was looking for himself. He squatted down to catch him, but Stony jumped into Allen’s arms.
Deon, “….”
As soon as Bernice reached the house, she turned around and pushed Deon to hide behind the door.
“What?” Deon looked at her with displeasure.
Bernice shushed him a few times, “Silence.”
Emma and Jaquan were talking outside with the dim yellow blurred street lights shone on them. From afar, it looked like there was sprinkled with a layer of soft light powder. Emma kept frowned and looked indifferent as if she hated Jaquan very much. However, Jaquan did not care about her coldness at all. He tightly held her hand, and every time she answered, he would put her hand against his heart.
“Tell the truth, or I’ll kiss you here.”
Emma suddenly retracted her hand and said with a frown, “I just don’t want you to follow me home. This is the truth.”
Jaquan grabbed her hands and pressed her against the car door. He was so close that she could hear his breath, “You are lying.”
Emma looked away, “I have told you the truth. Don’t force me to hit you.”
The pain that Jaquan suffered from the back suplex last time was still lingering, and when he heard that, his waist hurt immediately.
He laughed, “Then I won’t go.”
Emma heaved a sigh of relief and turned around to look at him, only to see Jaquan lowered his head. A large shadow covered her.
He bit her lips as soon as he touched them. He kissed her so hard that it was more like taking punishment. Emma should have thrown the man over her shoulders to the ground, but the moment their lips and teeth touched, her bones went numb and she completely collapsed on the car door, allowing him to take whatever he wanted.
Seeing that from behind the door, Deon ground his teeth in anger. Each time when he wanted to go out and kill that bastard, he was just stopped by Bernice. She blushed and couldn’t help but stretch out her head to look, “Don’t disturb them. If we’re out now, everyone will be very embarrassed. Oh my, I’m so shy….”
Deon, “….”
“It’s a lie.” Jaquan kissed Emma and said in a hoarse voice, “I lied to you that I won’t go.” He sucked on her lips slightly or heavily with comfort, which was paralyzing Emma’s rationality.
“Take me with you, huh?” His voice was hoarse and alluring.
Emma only felt that it was a miracle for a man to have such beautiful peach blossom eyes, not to mention his attractive voice.
Her rationality and impulse clashed for a long time. Suddenly, the window behind her was rolled down, and the irritating voice of Ferne came from inside.
“Well, I didn’t see anything. I just want to ask if you guys have done kissing. If you’re finished … I have to go.”
Jaquan glared at him. As Emma slowly calmed down, he kicked the car door and said, “Damn it! Ferne, you’re dead!”
The car was kicked away.
On the halfway, the car window was rolled down, and a hand slowly reached out and waved at Jaquan.
Jaquan knew what he meant. Even though he knew that Ferne might not be able to see him, he still stretched out his fist to wave towards the car, and then pressed it against his left shoulder.
A single gesture could neutralize all the displeasure and resentment between good friends.
Bernice and Deon already went out as if nothing had happened. Well, only Bernice pretended to be fine. Deon made a long face, and he glared coldly at Jaquan. If his gaze could kill people, Jaquan wouldn’t live at all.
Allen and Felice also walked out one after another. Stony carefully supported one of Felice’s arms and acted as her walking stick. When they met at the door, none of them spoke anything.
Emma hesitated and looked at Bernice. Bernice looked at Jaquan and asked, “Can you drive?”
Jaquan immediately understood her agreement for him to follow them. He looked at Emma with a smile and then nodded, “Yes.” After a pause, he turned to Deon and asked sincerely, “May I drive my parents home first?”
He was very clear about Deon’s position in the Alberton family, and he did not try his best to curry favor with Bernice for her kindness. Instead, he showed Deon enough respect in public when Deon was angry with him.
Everyone else looked at Deon, who valued filial piety above everything. However, Deon’s parents died early. Now that he saw that Jaquan treated his parents well, his anger got relieved. Deon just nodded, “Okay.”
However, he was still unwilling to allow this brat to walk into the Alberton’s. But Bernice and Emma had just returned home, and he didn’t want to offend them at all, so he could only swallow all the displeasure and snorted coldly before getting into the car.
Stony was not close to him yet. So he must consider how to please this grandson and he did not even bother to deal with Jaquan, that metrosexual man. Yes, he admitted that Jaquan was a little more handsome than himself when he was young. However, a handsome man was far less than a practical one. He believed that Emma would know that in the future.
He worried about his daughter alone for a while, and then he turned around to find that his daughter and wife have got into Jaquan’s car with his grandson, Stony.
Deon, “…..”
