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.
