Chapter 1780
Jefferson stuffed the two marriage certificates into Adrienne's hand and noted, "Idiot, take a good look at what these are."
Adrienne held the two marriage certificates. She felt repulsed and wanted to throw them away. But, when she saw Jefferson's fierce eyes, she dared not do so. Thus, she could only hold them stiffly and said, "Why did you give me these?"
As soon as she saw these two certificates, she would think of the mistake she made when she was drunk. It caused every unchangeable consequence.
"See whose name is written on it and see the picture pasted on it." Jefferson was taller than Adrienne. In addition to that, he was looking at her from above, which made her feel oppressed.
Adrienne didn't want to see it. She stuttered, "What... what do you want to say?"
"You don't even want to look at it?" Jefferson's self- control snapped. He snatched the marriage certificates and showed them to Adrienne. "We got these marriage certificates from registering our marriage at City Hall."
Adrienne did not reply.
She was not blind. How could she not know it was a marriage certificate?
Jefferson roared, "From the moment we got the certificate, you and I are a legal couple protected by the law of the country."
"You know that there are other reasons why our marriage happened. You did not do it voluntarily. I took responsibility for my mistake after drinking. I also paid a large sum of money to compensate you." Thinking that all her savings had been given to Jefferson, Adrienne still felt upset. The money she had worked so hard to earn was gone just like that.
If she had been awake that night, knowing what she had done, the compensation would not have been unjust. The problem was that she had not felt anything that night.
Her first time was gone for no reason...
Jefferson swore again, "Did you only marry me out of f*cking responsibility?"
"Do you have any other reasons aside from that?" As Jefferson's rage was about to explode, Adrienne moved back again, trying to keep a distance from him. If he wanted to hit her, she could escape then.
He didn't do it voluntarily? Jefferson exclaimed inwardly.
If he didn't want to marry her, who could force him to marry her?
Other people, including Eunice, understood him, but only she didn't understand.
She was born to be his nemesis. If he talked to her for a few more minutes, he would reach a boiling point.
Cupping his fists, Jefferson tried to control his anger and asked, "Little Specky, what am I to you?"
"What kind of answer do you want to hear?" Adrienne was stunned and asked tentatively, "My legal husband?"
"You do know that I am your legal husband." Now that Adrienne finally said a correct sentence, Jefferson's anger dissipated slightly. "Now that someone has declared that she wants to pursue your man, what should you do?"
Adrienne still answered, "I've told you. It's your decision."
"You're such an idiot!" Jefferson yelled.
He wasted time trying to get through to her.
He fumed.
He felt as if he was going to blow up!
He had intended to pretend that he did not hear the conversation between Adrienne and Eunice. As long as Adrienne asked him to go to Eunice's date, he would go. But as soon as he saw Adrienne, he couldn't pretend to know nothing, let alone calm down to go on a date with a woman who had affection for him.
Adrienne was a fool. Was he supposed to do stupid things with her?
He regretted it at this moment!
"Oh..." Adrienne replied neutrally to Jefferson's intense reaction. It seemed that his anger had nothing to do with her.
To be honest, she did not think that she had anything to do with his outburst.
It was common for Jefferson to get angry and she was used to it. Hence, it was hard to attract her attention with this.
"The time and venue." Since Adrienne had no objection to Jefferson's date with Eunice, then he would go there openly. Why did he bother to worry about her?
"What?" The change in their topic was so abrupt that Adrienne failed to keep up with him.
"Where did Eunice ask me to meet her?" Jefferson asked grumpily.
"She... she didn't say that." Adrienne looked at Jefferson and stammered, "Should, should I text her?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Jefferson was rendered speechless.
Bang!
He seemed to hear the sound of himself exploding in anger.
Even if he had not exploded yet, he was close to exploding. He could not stay put any longer.
Adrienne slowly came to her senses when she heard the sound of Jefferson slamming the door and leaving. She realized what she had just done.
It gradually occurred to her that Jefferson seemed to be angrier than ever.
However, she didn't know where his anger came from. How was it related to her?
Jefferson got out of the house and immediately made a call to Eunice. He invited her to a cafe nearby her house.
When Jefferson arrived at the destination, Eunice had been sitting in the cafe and waiting for a while. When she saw Jefferson, she beamed and greeted, "Jefferson, you're here."
However, Jefferson did not bother to be polite with Eunice. He said without even sitting down, "Eunice, I said before that even if all the women in the world die, I won't fall in love with you."
Jefferson's words were like a sharp knife, piercing Eunice's heart. She felt stung, but she still kept smiling. "Jefferson, we're only in our twenties and we still have a long way to go in life. As people grow older, their thinking will change too. Don't be so ruthless at such a young age."
Jefferson didn't know whether his other thoughts would change, but he was sure that he would never let Adrienne go for the rest of his life. "Eunice, don't talk nonsense with me. I'm meeting you
alone to tell you two things. One is that I won't like you, and the other is that I won't allow you to take advantage of Adrienne. If you manipulate her in the future, don't blame me for hurting you."
He was not only rude to her but also threatening her.
Eunice tried hard to maintain a smile but it wasn't easy. "Jefferson, you grew up with Adrienne. You and I also grew up together. Why do you protect her but treat me like an enemy? Did I ever harm you and Adrienne?"
"I bet no." Eunice smiled bitterly and continued, "Whether it is before or now, I regard Adrienne as my best friend. No matter what I do, I will take her feelings into account."
"Take her feelings into account? Adrienne doesn't know what you're up to. You think you can fool me?" Jefferson sneered. "If we hadn't grown up together, I wouldn't have given you the chance to get close to her."
Jefferson stuffed the two marriage certificates into Adrienne's hand and noted, "Idiot, take a good look at what these are."
Adrienne held the two marriage certificates. She felt repulsed and wanted to throw them away. But, when she saw Jefferson's fierce eyes, she dared not do so. Thus, she could only hold them stiffly and said, "Why did you give me these?"
