“Is that so?” Ward looked at me and there was mockery in his eyes. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Otherwise?” I looked up at Ward and without hesitation took off my mask and asked him, “would you want a woman like me?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I thought ward would say no right away. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But he thought for a moment and said, “I’m sure I won’t want you. After all, when I look at you, I’m impotent. But I don’t mind it if it works.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ward’s words made me laugh. “Do you think you can threaten Sean with me?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“If it happened a few months ago, it might have worked. Now it doesn’t work.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at Ward and laughed at myself and put on my mask. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I was about to leave, the box door behind Ward opened. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean came out. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He looked at me and Ward and became unhappy. He went straight to me and impatiently said, “Why are you here?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Hurry home! I’ll have someone drive you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As soon as I wanted to explain, I was interrupted by Sean. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He took his cell phone out of his pocket and said, “drive June home.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ward saw it and smiled, “President Jessop, you are so heartless. You loved her when she was beautiful, but she’s disfigured now and you break up with her right away.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No.” Sean immediately denied, “she shouldn’t come to such a place.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He looked cold when he spoke. His attitude even reminded me of when I first married him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Why did his attitude change so fast? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At this point, Sean’s driver went upstairs and said he would drive me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t want to lose my dignity and said decisively, “President Jessop, I don’t need it. I just happened to meet you today. It won’t happen in the future.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Ward smiled and said, “President Jessop, I can drive her for you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Follow my driver.” Sean looked at me. His black eyes seemed to be covered with ice. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was not surprised by what he said. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I stepped back and away from Ward, “President Jessop, I know your habits. Even if you don’t want me, other men can’t want me. You can rest assured that President Richards is not blind and he won’t like me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I finished, I turned around and headed for the box. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
No one followed me, including Sean and his driver. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I felt depressed but I knew I couldn’t get what I expected. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I went back to my box, I found that the door of the box was wide open. There was no Jack or Daisy in it! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
There was only one waiter who was cleaning. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At first, I thought I was wrong. I took a step back and looked at the box number. I was sure I was right. I went in and asked, “where are the guests?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Guests? They have left.” The waiter saw me and thought for a moment and said, “are you June? The gentleman asked me to tell you that they left first. You can go home by yourself.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“What?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Did Jack take Daisy away? He must not be well meaning! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I quickly took out my cell phone and called Daisy. No one answered and ended up in message mode. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I continued to call her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I made three calls in a row. Finally, the phone was through. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Daisy, where are you?” I asked her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy was silent for a moment and said, “I’m with Jack.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Where are you? I’ll come to you!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy didn’t sound articulate. She must have drunk a lot. It seemed that Jack let her drink again after I left! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I immediately regretted leaving the room. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Jack would do something bad to her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
To my surprise, Daisy turned me down, “I’ll be home later.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No way! You can’t be with Jack!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“It’s okay. Don’t worry.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Daisy finished and hung up. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I continued to call her. Although she answered the phone, she was very impatient. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I had no choice but to call Jack. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Jack didn’t answer my call. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was upset but couldn’t find them. I had to go home first. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was very anxious that night. I was worried about Daisy and thought about Sean’s attitude towards me. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Maybe Sean and I broke up when I moved out of that house. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t fall asleep until midnight. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was woken up by the ring of my cell phone in the morning. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As soon as I answered the phone, I heard Daisy’s voice, “take a dress to the Hilton Hotel. I’ll give you the room number later.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Ah?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t wake up so I didn’t understand her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Bring me a dress. Hurry up. Please.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
This time I understood and realized what happened! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I got up quickly and went to Daisy’s room. I took a suit of clothes, including underwear and underpants, from her wardrobe and took a taxi to the Hilton Hotel. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When I got downstairs, I went up directly according to the room number provided by Daisy. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I heard it as soon as I got to the door. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Ah!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Oh! Don’t! Dear!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Shut up!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I heard Jack and Daisy inside. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Of course, there was the sound of smashing things. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I pressed the doorbell and the door opened quickly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I saw Jack opening the door. He was wearing trousers and shirt. The buttons were misplaced and the shirt was covered with lipstick. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Come in, please.” Jack saw me and quickly made way. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I came into the room and saw Daisy sitting on the bed wrapped in a quilt. There were many clothes on the ground and a dark red sweater had been torn to pieces. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The rest of the clothes were in tatters. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The messy table top and bed sheets showed how intense it was last night. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’ll go to the bathroom and wait.” Jack knew Daisy was going to wear clothes. He looked around and didn’t plan to go out. He could only go to the bathroom. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Before Daisy spoke, Jack ran to the bathroom. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I handed Daisy her dress. At first Daisy didn’t speak and dressed. After a while she said, “why didn’t you stop me yesterday?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Sorry…” I saw that Daisy’s body was covered with kisses. I felt very sorry. “Yesterday I wanted to stay awake and take care of you, but you told me to drink. I could only go out. When I went back, you and Jack had left. I called you…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I know. I remember I agreed with what happened yesterday.” Daisy desperately grabbed her hair and said regretfully, “I drank too much yesterday and I was out of my mind!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Stop. What happened yesterday has something to do with me. I will be responsible for you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Jack came out of the bathroom and stood at the door. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
