Ice and Fire novel Chapter 56

Jackson and Jean both looked towards the direction the voice sounded.

A familiar face came into sight. Jackson let out a name, "Walter!" Walter Wang was the one that had cried out Jackson's name. He had been living abroad for a long time, and had just come back for a few days and wanted to hang out with his old friends.

"Jackson, why is she here?" asked Derek. He was next to Walter Wang, and he was a bit surprised to see Jean there.

When she heard Derek asking about her, Jean loosened her grip on Jackson's hand, and played innocent.

Walter Wang, not sure about the situation, mistook the woman for Jackson's wife. He had heard about Jackson's marriage when he was still abroad, and based on the intimacy he saw between Jackson and Jean, Walter thought that the pretty woman must be his wife.

"Jackson, your wife is a beauty!" he bantered. He looked at Jean up and down, and said, "Such a nice figure, and such a nice look. She definitely beats all of the girls abroad. What a nice lady!"

Flattered by what Walter Wang had just said, Jean's hidden inside vanity got significantly satisfied. Jean smiled like a lady, and said, "Thank you."

But Jackson's face darkened, and he looked at Walter Wang, and said, "What are you saying there? She's John's wife, not mine!"

"Dude, you should have really said something wiser, " said Derek. After many years of living abroad, this guy, Walter Wang, had not changed a bit, and his eyes still lit up instantly whenever he saw a pretty woman.

Walter Wang was startled. He had heard John get married, but he had never thought that he could ever find such a gorgeous woman.

In a wired tone, Walter Wang said, "Oh, so she's John's wife? Sorry man, my bad, I misunderstood things. I should have not said that."

His eyes were glued to Jean for the whole time he spoke. He still couldn't believe how gorgeous she was.

Jean acted like an innocent girl, and meekly said, "Never mind, it doesn't matter."

Jackson felt sick when he saw how bitchy Jean actually looked like. He did not want to stay there any longer, and asked, "Where are the rest of you?"

"Room 302, " said Derek.
