"Lover? What is this mess! Love? What the devil is that?" Jane Sampson bristled, "I donât love James Black at all. There is absolutely no love between me and James Black. He doesnât love me, and I donât love him, so donât involve love in our relationship; it would be a disservice to the word itself."
"I didnât say you loved James Black, what are you getting worked up for?" Nina Rice retorted languidly, then explained, "The âloverâ Iâm talking about is just another term for husband."
"..." Inside, Jane likely had a hammer she wanted to smash Nina with.
Canât she just speak plainly?
Why does she have to be so ambiguous and scare people like that?
Her heart disease was about to be scared out of her.
"I think I wonât get any good advice from you," Jane said.
"No, on the contrary, I suggest you take this opportunity to propose divorce to James Black. Darling, after you do this, you will receive a lifetimeâs worth of rewards," Nina chuckled more joyfully.
Jane paused, then asked gloomily, "Nina, are you secretly in love with Chief Black?" Was that why she was urging her to go to Chief Black and risk her life so Nina could climb up over her dead body?
"Oh ho, so Chief Black is âyourâ man now?" Nina was still not done teasing when Jane quickly ended the call.
Watching the mobile phone screen automatically return to the home screen, Ninaâs laughter was wickedly gleeful.
"With that rabbitâs gall, she still flaunts on Moments about making Mr. Black furious. Now that she has truly angered him, why doesnât she go flaunt it on Moments again?"
Thatâs what you call climbing onto the roof without the courage to lift a tile.
Not having obtained any practical advice from Nina, Jane opened her mobile phone browser and typed a line into the search bar: How to please an angry boyfriend.
After the web page loaded, Jane scrolled down for a few seconds.
Thinking it over, she went back to the search bar and revised it toâHow to coax a husband when heâs angry?
Opening the top link, Jane began to read with interest.
.....
And then, Jane was lost. Had the internet started to become this unserious?
So, since James Black was already so angry, she might as well let him stay angry.
Anyway, the deadline for her to go home was a month away. James Black couldnât possibly stay angry with her for an entire month, could he?
