Meeting His Parents.
Jade's POV.
We came out of the building as soon as we took a picture and I suddenly felt another responsibility down on me.
"Let's stop at the mall and get your clothes. The contract will be ready before we get home" He pulled my hand gently and opened the door for me to enter. Once I entered, he closed it gently before settling in the car and pressing the accelerator pedal.
At first, I was so touched by the way he treated me but I guess it's because of what he wanted from me. The drive to the mall was silent but I could hear our breathing. I continued playing with my hands while thinking of how to deal with the situation.
The pregnancy is giving a lot of doubts. What if I tell him and he misunderstood my intention, thinking I'm trying to get his money because of the pregnancy.
It is better to suffer silently and keep from him. I can't let anyone look down on me again, not anymore.
When the car stopped in front of the mall, he opened the car for me and swayed me off the ground. "What are you doing?" I asked in confusion.
"I can't allow my wife to walk around in a shirt. You deserve special treatment" Abel responded. With every moment I spent with him, I truly felt like a Queen.
We entered the mall and I was shocked in his arms when ten bodyguards rushed forward to greet him. I lose count but I'm pretty sure there are more than ten.
Who is this man that has a lot of guards?
Then his whisper came to my ears. "You need to start your acting from here or you lose the contract"
When I heard his words, I knew where to go. Whether I like it or not, this is all I get to get back to my feet and take revenge on John. All I need to sacrifice is one year and I will be rich.
Before I got married to a greedy poor man who treated me like trash, and now it's the turn to date a rich man who seems caring. What is there to lose? Nothing!
With a shift in expression, I said sweetly. "Oh baby, my back hurt. Can you put me down a bit?"
With action full of respect, he put me down. "I'm sorry love. Are you okay now?" He asked, examine my body.
Just like how I watch lovers in dramas, I must make this real and lovely. "I will feel okay only if you give me a kiss" I muttered dramatically and he didn't waste before claiming my lips.
The kiss I meant is on my forehead but he chooses my lips instead which I'm getting addicted to.
After satisfying the moment, we move to business.
He turned to the sales manager and said, "Pack all the latest edition and the most expensive beautiful gown, accessories and all for my wife. You only have thirty minutes to do" The tone of his voice sent chills to my body and it's obvious it has the same effect on others.
Within thirty minutes, more than fifty shopping bags were placed in front of me and my jaw dropped a bit but I quickly composed myself.
I was later led into the dressing room and changed into a yellow pearl Georgette gown that freely went down to my knee-length. Taking a glance at myself in the mirror, I couldn't deny my perfect shape that came out in the dress.
When I walked out, his eyes were glued to my curvature and he seemed stiff. I chuckled, taking some crazy step towards him.
"Stop staring baby, I'm all yours tonight" I winked in a naughty manner and he chuckled as we walked out together.
Before we leave the mall, a trunk arrives to take the bags. On our way back, he gave me a heads up.
"We are going to meet my parents. Just act like yourself when we get there, there is no need to act too serious" He Said, his facial expression is now different from earlier.
I guess my acting was a bit overboard. "Alright I will take note of that"
Not long after, I found myself drawn to a beautiful Mansion and it seems to be the same mansion Abel was heading to. Once he entered the compound, my jaw dropped at the beauty.
He stepped out of the car and helped me out. Holding hands with him felt peaceful as we walked into the mansion. We are welcomed by some set of maids who recognise Abel as Young Master and I kept admiring the mansion settings down to the maids' dressings, everything is so good.
"Inform Dad that I'm around" Abel ordered and one guard went upstairs.
I was still admiring the beauty of the sitting room when a maid brought me out of my daze. "Young Miss, what would you love to have?" She asked and I'm left with different choices as she listed different things.
"Just get us juice for now, we will call you if we need something else later" Abel interrupts and the maid disappears.
Hearing the approaching footsteps, I caught the attention of a young lady walking down the staircase with a man in his early 60s who looked a lot similar to Abel.
It's obvious the man was his Dad but the lady beside him looks young even though she is obviously older than me.
I watched as Abel's expression turned darker when she saw the woman coming downstairs with his Dad, it seemed something was wrong with the family settings.
"How are you doing, Young lady?" Mr Jackson asked with a warm smile which I returned instantly.
"I'm fine Daddy, I've been hoping for a day like this and I'm happy to see you " I replied warmly, acting like a perfect wife material.
Mr Jackson looked at Abel and said. "Son, you have brought the right person for me"
Abel smiled slightly and replied bluntly. "Since I've fulfilled your wish, I guess I have to leave with my wife now. We have some other things to do"
"C'mon dear, you can't just leave like that. Let me have a chit chat with my daughter in-law and you can do the same with your Dad" The lady beside Mr Jackson uttered.
Now I know what is going on. That lady is Mr Jackson's mistress and Abel seems to hate her.
"I suppose that idea. Young lady, what's your name?"
With a warm smile, I responded. "My name is Jade" I placed a short kiss on Abel's cheeks and followed the lady. "I will be back"
As we entered another roo
m that was a bit apart from the living room, something expected happened....
"Blood!”
