At this point, Jett had run out of excuses. However, he was still hesitant. He was worried that Tanya hadn’t considered the prospect carefully. “Maybe… You should give this more thought? I’ll think it over too. Tomorrow morning, we’ll give each other an answer.”
Tanya had carefully considered this long ago. She had been thinking about it for days and nights. “Okay. My decision won’t change. I’ll wait for your answer tomorrow.”
The next morning, Tanya woke up early in the morning to make breakfast. Usually, their housekeeper would take care of it, but since Jett was home, she wanted to do it herself.
The housekeeper, Hannah, held the baby as she watched her work. “You’re so agile, madam,” she commended sincerely. “What does your husband do? He’s never home. I haven’t really seen him in the house since the baby was born. This little one may not be close to him.”
Tanya wasn’t sure of how to explain Jett’s job and slyly explained, “Him? His job requires him to go out of the country all the time. It’s all to support the family, so I can understand. The baby will be more attached to him later.”
Hannah’s eyes filled with admiration. “You’re such a sensible and steadfast wife; it’s no wonder he can move around without worry. Not a lot of men would have this sense of responsibility at his age. I’ve met so many lazy men who rely on women all their lives or still live with their parents. You’ve picked a good one, ma’am.”
Tanya loved hearing praises about Jett. Her heart would feel so full whenever she heard these compliments. The only problem was that she and Jett were not living like normal husbands and wives.
Jett woke up at almost 9AM, as he had arrived home late last night. Tanya prepared a new toothbrush for him. “Time to wash up and come to the dining table. I’ve made breakfast.”
