Oh my God, he’s like a pup in love. I can’t force him to break up with her, so I’ll have to convince that woman to do it. “I’m exhausted. Let me sleep. And take care of Jenna.” Donna wanted to sleep, and she created an opportunity for her son to spend some time with Jenna. Ethan wrapped his arm around her shoulder and kissed her forehead. “Get some rest, Mom.”
“I will.” Donna nodded. Jenna got out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a thin dress. When she saw Ethan come out of his mother’s room, she said, ‘Ethan, do you have cold water?”
“In the fridge.” He looked at her and said, “Wear something less revealing before you come out.” Jenna walked up to him. “You’ve seen me in bikinis.”
He felt nothing toward her. She was just a good friend to him, or a sister. Ethan turned around. “The water’s in the fridge. Take it yourself.” “Can’t you stay with me? I want someone to chat with.” Jenna twirled her hair and shot him a bashful look.
Just then, Ethan’s phone rang. Oh, that’s Josephine. He quickly said, “I have something to do. You do what you want.” “Ethan! Jenna saw him off speechlessly. She knew she looked sexy in this dress, and yet Ethan refused to look at her.
Which part of her is better than me? Unbeknownst to Jenna, love was not just visual for Ethan; he needed it to come from the heart. Ethan went back to his room and closed the door, then he called Josephine. “Your mom didn’t get mad at you, did she?” Josephine asked, worried.
“She didn’t. She’s just exhausted after the flight.” Ethan knew his mother didn’t like Josephine, but that was because she didn’t understand her. She’ll grow to like her.
Actually, Josephine wasn’t really that worried, but she couldn’t tell Ethan that. It was obvious Ethan’s mother didn’t like her. Ethan could’ve introduced her easily tonight, but she refused to see her.
Suddenly, someone opened the door, and Jenna came in uninvited. She noticed Ethan talking to Josephine on the phone, and the b*tch said, “Ethan, I got you some water.” Ethan frowned. “Why are you here?”
“Just worried you might get thirsty. My, your bedroom’s big.” She sat on the bed and happily. said, ‘Your bed’s so soft. I bet it’s good to sleep. in.”
“I’m on a call. Leave now.” Ethan covered the microphone on his phone so Josephine wouldn’t hear them. He knew Jenna was trying to cause a misunderstanding.
Indeed, Josephine’s eyes went wide. Jenna’s in his room, and at this hour? Why is she there? “I won’t get in your way. I’ll just stay quiet.” She lay on Ethan’s bed without his permission and shot him a look of allure. Ethan’s face fell. ‘Jenna, leave.”
Not afraid of his angry gaze, Jenna sat up and said loudly, “Oh my gosh, the wind’s so strong. I’m not wearing enough layers, I guess. I’ll need your shirt, Ethan.”
She walked to the closet swiftly so Ethan couldn’t stop her, but what was more important now was how Josephine was feeling. ‘Let me explain.”
Josephine heard everything. She knew Jenna was in Ethan’s room wearing nothing but a nightdress, and she could see that image in her. mind. ‘I’m fine.’ Josephine held her jealousy back. “Why is she there?”
“Just here with my mom. She’s not sleeping. with me but in the guest room on the second floor,” said Ethan. “Please don’t take this the wrong way.” Josephine smiled. “I won’t.”
Jenna came back out with a white shirt. “Do I look good in this?” She spun around. Josephine heard that. What is she doing? Is she trying to seduce him? “You should tend to your guest. I need to take a shower.” Josephine wanted to chat, but since Jenna was around, she couldn’t do that. “Joey…”
“I’m fine. Take care of your mom.” Josephine tried to stay calm, but she was obviously jealous. “I’ll explain this tomorrow,” said Ethan. “No. I trust you,” said Josephine seriously. And then Jenna gasped. “Can you help me up, Ethan. I fell.”
Josephine wanted to roll her eyes. What is she doing? If she wants me to be jealous, it worked. Josephine was really jealous. She was imagining what was happening in Ethan’s room -Jenna standing in front of Ethan wearing nothing but a nightdress and then falling down. What kind of position did she end up in? How much did she reveal?
Josephine hung up and took a deep breath. She told herself to stay calm and trust Ethan, but she failed. She couldn’t just pretend nothing had happened. Jenna was a model and her body was smoking hot. Any man would want to sleep with her. Now, she was standing right in front of her boyfriend, flirting with him. Even if Ethan didn’t get any ideas, it was still infuriating
Ethan hung up and told Jenna, “I have to go.” “Where are you going?” Jenna asked. “When are you coming back?” “The bar. My friend’s waiting for me.” Ethan went downstairs.
Jenna went with him. When she saw him actually taking his car key, she was secretly. annoyed. All of a sudden, she thought of an idea and pleaded, “Can you take me along?”
“No. My friend doesn’t like strangers.” Ethan quickly left the house and drove into the night. Jenna stood at the doorway, gritting gritted her teeth in fury. She knew Josephine must have said something to make Ethan leave. Damn her.
Noticing the commotion, Donna came down as well. She saw that Jenna was wearing nothing but a nightdress and her son’s shirt. “Where’s Ethan?”
“It’s Josephine. She told him to go see her,” Jenna lied. She was going to slander Josephine as much as she could. “What? She did?” “Yeah, she knew you were here, and yet she did that anyway. I bet she doesn’t care about you.”
As expected, Donna got frustrated. Is she trying to take my son away? She won’t even let me stay with him for a night? How unreasonable can she get?
Ethan drove straight to Josephine’s house after making up an excuse to leave. He knew that Josephine was angry and he needed to explain himself.
After Josephine took a shower, she climbed into her bed and held her pillow. All she could think of was how Jenna was seducing her boyfriend. She told herself to calm down, but she couldn’t. Suddenly, her phone rang, and to her delight, it was Ethan. “Hello.”
“Come out. I’m outside,” said Ethan. “It’s late, so I don’t want to wake your folks,” “What?” Delighted, she darted to the window and pulled the curtains open. Standing outside her house was a black off-
road vehicle, and its headlights were blinking.
All the frustration and anger she felt earlier. disappeared, and a happy Josephine went. down holding her phone. Oh, I’m only wearing my pajamas. Ah, who cares? She wanted to see him right now.
Josephine came out and got into his car. Noticing what she was wearing, an amused Ethan asked, “Why didn’t you change?” “Because I couldn’t wait to see you.” Josephine looked at him closely as if she was trying to look for something. “What are you looking for?”
“Kisses,” said Josephine. I knew it. She took it the wrong way. He turned on the lights and stared at her. ‘Don’t worry. I won’t let any other woman touch me.” Amused, Josephine chuckled, and she nodded. “I trust you.”
“Get changed. I’ll take you on a stroll,” said Ethan. “No. You should go back. Your mom came all the way here just to see you. You can’t just leave her alone. What would she think?” Josephine said. “Aren’t you mad?” Ethan didn’t want to go home. He wanted to stay with her.
“Nope. Not when you came all the way here just to cheer me up,” said Josephine. “I’m fine. You shouldn’t make your mother sad, so go home.” She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, then cheered him up. Ethan was convinced and nodded. “Sure. I’ll go home right now.”
“And don’t force your mother into a meetup. She can see me when she wants to,” said Josephine. She was sure Jenna had ruined already her image by now
She must take this slowly. Ethan nodded. “I can do that. Don’t worry, I’ll do my best. My mom will love you.” Josephine nodded. “I’ll try my best to keep this relationship alive.”
“You won’t try your best. You will keep this relationship alive, corrected Ethan. Josephine smiled. ‘Sure. You should go home now.” She stood outside her house and bade him goodbye, then she went back inside.
Donna was really mad. She had just arrived, and her son was already leaving her just to see a random woman. It hurt her heart. Jenna was sitting with her, trying to cheer her up as well as smearing Josephine..
Ethan parked his car outside in case the humming of the engine woke his mother, then he came in through the side door. Just when he was about to enter the living room, he heard Jenna talking to his mother.
“It’s alright, Mrs. Quarles. I’m here. I can’t believe Josephine would tell Ethan to meet up with her, and at this hour too.” And then Ethan harrumphed. “Do not slander her, Jenna.”
Jenna was shocked, and she raised her head. only to see Ethan standing at the doorway, and she got nervous. How long has he been there? An angry Donna asked, “It’s late. Where have you been?”
“A friend wanted to meet up with me, so I went to the bar and said hi,” said Ethan. He didn’t tell her he met Josephine since he knew Jenna must have slandered his girlfriend.
Donna looked a little happier, while Jennal looked sheepish. Okay, so that was awkward. “You shouldn’t drink at this hour. Get to sleep,” Donna said. “Jenna, it’s late. You should catch some sleep as well.”
Jenna was a little disappointed. He obviously met up with that woman, so why did he come back so soon? Did Josephine actually let him go? Unbeknownst to her, Josephine was that kind of woman, and thanks to that, Jenna’s lies failed to get through, so she went back to her room. Donna looked at her son. Not even a hint of alcohol from him. He lied. “So where did you actually go?”
It was quiet outside, making it a perfect chance for a good talk. Since Jenna was jealous of Josephine, Ethan knew she would try to slander her as much as possible so Donna would think badly of Josephine, and he wanted to talk about that. “I met up with Josephine.”
“Then why did you come back?” Donn asked. Josephine told me to. She said you must be exhausted from the flight, so you need me,” said Ethan. Donna was a little surprised. Is that so? Well, she’s an understanding girl, I guess.
“Don’t judge her before you meet her, Mom. You should get to know her yourself, not through someone else. Not through rumors.” Ethan looked at his mother solemnly. He knew his mother was not an unreasonable woman. She was respected in the company and a great helper to his father.
Donna knew what Ethan was trying to say. Jenna did speak badly of Josephine, and now that she thought about it, those rumors might be the fabrication of her own personal feelings. “Hook us up then.” Donna would like to meet Josephine and find out what kind of woman she was herself. “Sure. I can do that. How does tomorrow sound?”
Unbeknownst to them, Jenna was hiding behind the guardrail on the second floor, listening in. When Donna said she wanted to meet Josephine, Jenna felt all the strength leave her. One word from Ethan, and his mother changed her opinion.
