A Ruling Passion – Chapter 1131

Jackson was inwardly skeptical. He did not think there could be a purely platonic relationship between a man and a woman. Although he knew that Arianne was the one that Will liked, Tiffany was quite friendly with Will as well. Was it possible that Tiffany had like Will at one point? Otherwise, why would she request for leave to meet Will the moment she found Will had returned? In the past, Tiffany would not acquiesce to his request when he begged her to take leave. With these thoughts in mind, he was even more certain of his decision. “Either I go with you or you don’t go at all.”

Tiffany’s temper exploded. “Fine, I won’t go! I’ll tell your mum that you won’t let your pregnant wife take leave. We’ll see if she gives you an earful or not!”

Jackson paid no heed to Tiffany’s threats. He did not expect her to complain to Summer.

As soon as Tiffany walked out, Summer had instantly called Jackson to lecture him. He felt his temper begin to rise as he said, “Don’t listen to her, mom. She’s not taking leave to rest at home. She’s planning to meet an old schoolmate who happens to be a man. Do you think I’d let her walk around with her protruding belly? I offered to accompany her, but she kept refusing me.”

After speaking to Summer, Jackson’s temper did not abate. In fact, it continued to rise. He could not understand why Tiffany would not let him accompany her. Was it abnormal for him to accompany her? Was this the difference in their age gap? Could the ten years between them caused such a huge gap?
