Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 1062

Jackson pressed the bell for a good long while but no one answered the door. He began to suspect that Tanya was avoiding the door, despite being at home, simply because she noticed it was him.

He had just begun to brainstorm a workaround when Tanya’s voice suddenly rang from behind him. “What are you doing here?”

Jackson turned. His sight landed on the food produce in her carrying bags and realized she had only gone to the market. “Got something to ask of you.”

Tanya lowered her head a little, slightly nervous. “Um, o-okay… Let me open the door, and we can talk after we get in.”

The first thing that Jackson did after stepping into the unit was to look around and say, “I thought you’d married that Jett guy. So, why is he still letting you stay in an apartment unit you rented?”

Tanya had nothing to answer him. She didn’t know if Jett owned a house of his own or how much money he had in his bank account. All she knew about her supposed husband was that he, at the very least, owned a car. Quickly, she deflected the question with an inquiry of her own. “What do you need me for? Is it… about what happened before?”

Jackson nodded slightly. “Tell me the truth, Tanya. Did someone make you do all those things? If no one did, then how is it possible that the possible date of your baby’s conception is coincidentally close to the night that you faked an affair between us?”

Tanya began to clutch at the edge of her shirt. “No one asked me to, okay? I e-explained very well back in the hospital, right? I met Jett two or three times. We didn’t know each other that much, but um, one day, I asked him out alone, and we drank. And then an accident happened between us and I became pregnant. I-It’s all a coincidence, really!” she said hurriedly. “L-Look, I know it’s all my fault, all mine! I've done something that gravely betrayed you and Tiffany, I know, but please… Just let me live, okay? I just wanna live quietly with Jett, with my kid safely delivered. That’s all I’m asking. So please, let bygones be bygones…”

Jackson took in all of the little movements she made. Combined that with deliberate ambiguities in her statement and how skittishly and uneasily she was recounting her story, he was almost certain that Tanya was lying.
