Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 153

"Don't talk about me. I've been away on business for two days and a lot has happened in Xicheng. Jenny, are you okay?"

Jenny is having tea. She looks stunned and smiles faintly.

"What can happen to me? Didn't things just get all worked out?"

"I just got off the plane and watched the news. Your boss knows well how to be tender toward woman. He's actually personally addressing the negative news about his company's artists!" Victoria looks at Jenny ambiguously.

"I wasn't going to keep anything from you about Mr. Lu's relationship with me, he and I are..."

"Ahem..." Adan suddenly coughs and interrupts Jenny, "Do you think we should add another dessert? The brown sugar patties at this restaurant are great."

Victoria frowns at Adan with a complex look. She stops talking for a long while, but finally doesn't continue what she has just said.

Adan casually changes the subject to Victoria's graduation project and talks about the business over in Hong Kong. He says that his parents miss Jenny and want her to visit them in Hong Kong sometime. He seems to keep deliberately avoiding the topic of something.

For example, Jenny's company, this incident, and everything that has to do with Luke.

Careless as Victoria is, she can see that something is wrong.

After dinner, they chat for a while. Adan is supposed to give them a lift, but Jenny refuses. Not only does she refuse, but she also asks him to take a cab home himself because she says she is worried about his mental state.

So Victoria inevitably learns that he almost has a car accident on the way here.

In the taxi ride home, Jenny sits with her mask on and the brim of her hat lowers. She doesn't say a word, but Victoria keeps sighing, which makes Jenny can’t resist poking her with her arm, "What are you doing?"

"Did you ever feel like Adan was wrong today?"

"Yes."

Jenny frowns and says in a muffled tone, "He seems to be talking more than usual."

She has always been careless than the normal person in terms of relationships, and doesn't have much of a desire for relationships. Just like in the beginning, she wasn't sure if she liked Frankie or not, but when Frankie said he liked her, she felt like she didn't hate the feeling of being with him and agreed.

Victoria's mouth quirks, "Don't you realize Adan has something on his mind?"

"What's on his mind?"

"He interrupted you several times when you were talking about the company and what you were doing with Mr. Lu. He was changing the subject. Didn't you catch that?"

Speaking of this, Jenny freezes slightly.

It is true. She is going to tell them about her marriage to Luke.

"So what exactly are you originally going to tell us? I think Adan is trying to avoid something on purpose." Victoria looks puzzled as she leans back in her seat.

Jenny looks up at the back of the driver. The driver is an honest man. He's only been driving all the way home and hasn't been chatting with them. She is relieved and lowersher voice, "I don't know if Adan's avoiding something, but I'm sure he doesn't know what I'm about to say. I wasn't going to hide anything from you, so..."

"What is it, exactly? Don't beat around the bush with me. Just say it."

"I got married."

"What?" Victoria bounces out of the car seat almost instantly. Her head hits the roof of the car directly, causing her and the driver to both let out a scream.

"Lady, be careful. My car can't take a hit like that from you!"

The driver gasps and looks distressed.

Victoria hurriedly apologizes to the driver. Then she is pulled by Jenny to sit nicely in the car seat.

"When did that happen?" She questions Jenny in a low voice, "No, with who?"

Jenny hesitates for a moment and then looks at the driver. Victoria understands what she means and then shuts her mouth, turning her head in pique and not speaking.

When they get home, Victoria slams the door. As soon as she enters the room she pulls up a chair and sits down, holding her arms in an attitude of scrutiny and examining Jenny, "Tell me the truth and you will receive a lighter sentence!"

Jenny puts down her house keys and bag. She changes her slippers and enters the house through the entrance with her hands up, looking like she is afraid of her, "I wasn't going to hide anything from you. You've been so busy since you got back, so I didn't have time to tell you."

The day Victoria returned was just the day the reality show filming started. Her house was full of cameras and she had to be very careful with every move she made, so she didn't even have the heart to talk to Jenny about it.

"Cut it out. I've been back for almost a month. Hurry up and tell me the truth."

Jenny laughs helplessly and says, "Luke."

"What?" Victoria practically slaps the table and stands up. She looks at Jenny with a stiff face and says slowly and clearly, "Oh, my god. Is that Luke from the Luke Up Group?"

"What? Do you know Luke? Why didn't he tell me about you?"

Jenny jokes as she speaks briefly about the fact that she has gotten a marriage license with Luke.

Victoria remains petrified on the spot, not having regained consciousness from the news she has just heard.

Jenny reaches out and waves a hand in front of her eyes. She hesitates for a moment, "Maybe you should hold off for a while. I'm going to boil the kettle..."

Victoria still doesn't respond.

Jenny has to turn to the kitchen to boil the water.

A short while later, a howl erupts from inside the living room. Jenny looks back and sees Victoria collapsing on the couch and hugging a pillow. She seems to be is in tears, "Oh my God, you're married to Luke. Adan is so pathetic. Isn't there any hope for him anymore?"

Jenny puts down the kettle and goes to the fridge to get fruit. She listens silently to Victoria talking to herself in the living room.

Victoria continues to talk to herself until Jenny goes into the bathroom to take a shower.

Jenny has just stepped into the bathroom when a hand reaches in and blocks her from closing the door.

Victoria leaps into the bathroom like a nimble monkey and closes the door.

"What are you doing? Do you want to shower first?" Jenny asks in surprise.

"It's girlfriends’ bubble bath chat time. Let's meet naked, and you're not prone to lying!"

"What?"

"Take off your clothes. I'll take off first!" Victoria undresses herself immediately and then reaches for Jenny's.

"Haha... stop! Hahaha..." Jenny is tickled by Victoria and can’t stop laughing. She dodges Victoria's hand while running around with her clothes cover.

Finally, she has no choice but to raise her hand in surrender, "I'll take it off by myself, all right?"

The bathroom is dense with water. The two of them are soaking in a bathtub, which seems slightly crowded.

The water is all foamy and Victoria is still looking at her as she crosses her arms over her chest.

Jenny can’t stand her looking at her like that. She says with a hollow laugh, "Have you ever felt that this atmosphere looks like a scene from a martial arts drama? When I made a guest appearance in a martial arts drama before, the heroine took a bath, but there was no water in the tub, it was all humidifiers. Did you know that?"

"Jenny, how do you and Luke know each other?"

Her question gets Jenny stuck.

"How long have you known each other? What kind of person is he? Is he good to you? Why did you marry without telling anyone?"
