A Ruling Passion – Chapter 0706

Jackson soon arrived downstairs after washing up. He had put on some clothes first before coming downstairs, as Lillian was around. “Good morning, Mrs. Lane,” he said.

Lillian curled her lips. “Tiffany calls your parents mom and dad, and you call me ‘Mrs. Lane’. How amusing.”

Jackson immediately tensed. “Mom... It was only a slip of the tongue, just a slip of the tongue. I hope you don’t mind. What are you doing so early in the day?”

Lillian was too embarrassed to reveal her rotten affair. “Nothing, just an impulse decision. Aren’t you busy? Hurry up and eat, then get to work. I’ll be going home soon."

Jackson wasn’t used to having one more person in the house. He finished his breakfast hesitantly, then threw the plates into the sink. “I’ll wash these when I get home. It’s almost time to go. Tiffie, you’d better hurry up and change.”
