Chapter 85

Jane's attitude immediately angered Mr. Jones, and he shouted loudly: "This is not the trouble you caused, we are all wiping your ass!"

Jane's eyes widened.

"are you kidding me?"

She pointed to Mike who didn't want to get involved in the dispute.

“If it hadn’t been for him and Jenny, we wouldn’t have gotten into such trouble!”

Mike retorted depressedly and speechlessly:
"You were the one who recommended Jenny to me at the beginning, saying that she doesn't go to King Chris High School. I just need to pretend to be close to her so that I won't arouse other people's suspicions."

Jane immediately choked back: "I originally suggested that you maintain a secret relationship with her, but you made this matter known to the whole world. It was you who messed up the matter!"

Mike was about to retaliate when Mrs. Jones suddenly shouted stop.

"Enough! Now is not the time to argue about who is right and who is wrong. Don't forget that we are a team. Everyone has worked very happily together in the past. Now is the time when we need to work together to overcome the difficulties. You don't want your bonuses to go to waste. Right?"

These words made the other three people in the room calm down instantly.

Mr. Jones was the first to speak, and took the initiative to apologize to Jane, saying that he should not have said that to her just now.

Mike also admitted his mistake and admitted that he did not handle his relationship with Jenny well, which was why he caused trouble for everyone.

In the end, Jane's attitude softened. After all, it was she who accidentally provoked Jamie in the process of inviting Dan.

"What shall we do now?"

Jane asked, looking at the others.

"As usual, let him have a meal at home. You can talk to him more about novels and movies at the table. By the way, he is also a fan of superhero comics. Mike can talk to him more later. topic in this area.”

It was still Mr. Jones who made the decision.

"But neither Marvel nor DC have cooperation agreements with us."

As soon as Mike said this, he immediately attracted attacks from others.

"Damn it, stop thinking about your performance. If the other party sees something is wrong, all of us will be finished!"

Mr. Jones's words drew unanimous agreement from Mrs. Jones and Jane.

Just then, the doorbell rang.

After confirming that everyone would act according to the agreed upon plan, Jane ran over to open the door.

Jamie was alone outside the door.

Before Jane could ask where Dan and Jenny were, Jamie took the initiative to explain that Dan and Jenny had just had a big fight.

Jenny ran away in anger, and Dan was worried and had no choice but to chase after her.

Jamie came back to say goodbye to the Jones family.

Now that Dan is gone, he naturally has no reason to stay.

Mr. Jones and Mrs. Jones, who were standing behind Jane, both had very regretful looks on their faces and spoke to persuade Jamie to stay.

It was just a courtesy at first, but who would have thought that Jamie would really change his mind.

After inviting Jamie into the house, Mr. Jones deliberately lagged behind and gave Mrs. Jones an angry look like what the fuck was going on.

Mrs. Jones gave him a calm, adaptable look.

The family accompanied Jamie into the living room, Jane and Mike stayed to talk to Jamie, and Mr. Jones and Mrs. Jones came to the kitchen to discuss solutions.

Both of them were a little unsure about what Jamie wanted to do. After discussing for a long time, they finally decided to go according to the original plan.

In the living room, not long after Jane sat down, she received a call and went to the next room with her cell phone.

Mike chatted enthusiastically with Jamie about various latest electronic products. Although he concealed it well, the small movements in his eyes that occasionally secretly observed Jamie's reaction still revealed his inner nervousness.

At this moment Jamie suddenly spoke.

"Tell me about you and Jenny, how did you meet?"

A flash of panic flashed in Mike's eyes, but Jamie pretended not to see it and continued to explain:

"Don't get me wrong, I just don't want there to be a misunderstanding between your family and Dan. Maybe you all think that Jenny is already 15 years old and she is free to fall in love with whomever she wants. As an elder brother, Dan's intervention seems a bit too lenient."

Mike hurriedly explained that he could understand Dan's approach. If his sister was in love with a strange boy, he would also want to know more about the situation.

"Really? I thought your sister already had a boyfriend. For a girl as beautiful and charming as her, there must be no shortage of suitors around her."

Looking at Jamie with a curious look on his face, Mike began to feel secretly anxious.

Damn it, why didn’t Jane come back when she answered the phone?

"Yes, many people think that Jane must have a boyfriend, but you may not believe it. She has always been single. If she were not keen on various cosmetics like a normal girl and likes to dress herself up, my parents would even Some are worried about whether there is something wrong with her gender perception.”

Of course Mike was lying.

Only he knew the real reason.

Article [-] of the Employee Code: Don’t fall in love with customers.

At this moment, Jane returned to the living room after answering the phone. After sitting down, she asked Mike and Jamie what they were talking about.

Mike was worried that the other party would know that he was talking about Jane behind his back, so he immediately changed the subject and said that they were talking about Dan.

At the same time, he winked at Jamie and asked him to help him lie.

The reaction really looks like the reaction of a brother who accidentally revealed the secret of his sister's singleness.

Jamie nodded cooperatively.

"Yes, we are talking about Dan, where did I just say?"

Mike immediately reminded Jamie that they said there was a reason Dan cared about Jenny getting a boyfriend.

Jamie immediately asked back:
"So Jane didn't tell you?"

Now it was Mike's turn to panic. Is there anything he should know?

But he really doesn’t know anything!

Jamie shrugged normally.

"Well, it seems you really don't know."

These words successfully aroused Jane's interest and asked Jamie what happened.

Jamie glanced at Jane and Mike and asked hesitantly:

"I'm not sure I should tell you, given the privacy involved."

Jane immediately assured Jamie that she would keep it a secret.

Mike followed Jane's eyes and made a promise of confidentiality.

Jamie then told the reason.

"Jenny had a boyfriend before, but later I found out that that guy really liked men. He was just using her as a shield to fall in love with Jenny. The most disgusting thing is that after the truth was exposed, this guy actually asked Jenny to continue dating. He pretended to be a couple, and he was even willing to pay Jenny a sum of money for this. Dan was very angry when he found out, found the guy and beat him up." Mike's face suddenly changed, and he was so nervous that he didn't know what to do with his hands. Where to put it.

Although Jane was shocked inside, she was relatively calm.

"Mike, can you go to the kitchen and get me two bottles of juice? I'm a little thirsty."

The panicked Mike quickly stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

It was only when he came to the door that he realized that the juice in the refrigerator was Mrs. Jones's "business". Of course, Jane's real intention was not to help Mrs. Jones improve her performance, but to suggest that he go to Mrs. Jones to help make decisions.

Walking into the kitchen, Mrs. Jones and Mr. Jones, who were preparing dinner, looked up together.

Although there was a long distance between the living room and the kitchen, Mike still glanced back nervously.

Mr. and Mrs. Jones immediately sensed something was wrong from his unusual behavior.

Mr. Jones was the first to speak, asking Mike what happened.

"I feel like we're exposed! He already knows everything about us."

Mike said quickly.

Both Mr. and Mrs. Jones's faces changed color.

"you sure?"

Mike repeated what Jamie had just said in the living room, and he looked very anxious during the process.

Mr. and Mrs. Jones were in disbelief after hearing this.

Fortunately, they all remained calm.

"Mike, are you sure you haven't exposed yourself to anyone since we moved here?"

This time it was Mrs. Jones who spoke.

Mike was very excited and said that he had been very careful and never revealed to anyone that he liked men.

Mr. Jones said immediately.

"Is it possible that it's just a coincidence? It's like a girl's first boyfriend is an athlete, and then her second boyfriend will also be an athlete."

Before Mike could answer, Jane walked in from outside.

"What's the matter with you? I asked you to get a drink, but you took so long."

Mike was at a loss.

Mr. Jones quickly opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of juice and threw it on the ground.

Mrs. Jones also reacted and took two more bottles of juice from the refrigerator and stuffed them into Jane's hands.

"Your brother accidentally broke a bottle while getting juice and is cleaning it up. Do you know what to say?"

Jane nodded quickly, but also emphasized that she couldn't delay for too long and asked everyone to make up their minds quickly.

As soon as Jane left, Mr. Jones and Mrs. Jones made eye contact and quickly reached a consensus.

"Listen, the current situation is not as bad as you think. First of all, we cannot rule out that this is a coincidence."

"Secondly, even if the other party has figured out your identity, it is only limited to the fact that you concealed your orientation from Jenny and used her as a shield. Not even a few people in the company know the real purpose of our coming here, Jamie ·It is impossible for Dutton to know the inside story."

"Now all you have to do is go out and admit your mistake to Jamie and try to convince him not to tell anyone about it."

Mrs. Jones's words also represent the opinions of Mr. Jones. The two of them are not discussing with Mike, but asking him to do this.

Mike couldn't think of a better way in a short time, so he had to be "accompanied" by Mrs. Jones and Mr. Jones and came to the living room together.

Jane was chatting with Jamie about some gossip in King Chris High School. When she saw the family members coming out of the kitchen, she naturally asked.

"Dinner is ready so soon?"

Mr. Jones and Mrs. Jones looked at each other, and confessed to Jamie with serious expressions that Mike liked men.

"We are really, really sorry. Steve and I should have stopped this in time, but because of our family's vanity, we acquiesced in Mike cheating on Jenny."

Mrs. Jones held Mike's shoulders, with tears in her eyes and an apology on her face, and apologized to Jamie with choked sobs.

Mr. Jones also changed his previous high-spirited and successful attitude and stood aside dejectedly.

"Kate is right, our family has a life that is extremely enviable by the neighbors around us, and we have always been proud of it. Mike is the only one who will make us a joke in the eyes of the neighbors, so we have been careful to hide it. "

Even Jane stood up from her seat and joined in the apology.

Seeing the family with red eyes and sobbing quietly from time to time, such a vivid performance made Jamie want to have a show with them.

"Are you kidding me? How could there be such a coincidence in the world that Jenny's two boyfriends both like men?"

It turns out it was really just a coincidence.

The Jones family all breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Mrs. Jones immediately asked Mike to call Jenny and confess everything in front of the family.

Mike immediately took out his phone and prepared to do so.

Jamie stopped him.

Under the confused gazes of the Jones family, Jamie shrugged and explained that Jenny had already been deceived and hurt by her ex-boyfriend in this way once. If it happened again, he couldn't imagine how much Jenny would be hit.

This was of course a lie to the Jones family, including Jenny’s ex-boyfriend.

The Jones family believed it was true, and at the same time this was the outcome they wanted.

Mr. Jones took advantage of the situation and proposed that in order to protect Jenny from being hurt again, the family was willing to cooperate with Jamie and let Mike find other reasons to break up with Jenny.

In this way, Mike's secret will not be known to more people, and Jenny will not be harmed more, which is good for everyone.

The two sides happily reached a consensus.

The Jones family successfully resolved a major crisis and entertained Jamie at the dinner table with great enthusiasm.

This family is a master at setting the mood, and everyone had a great time chatting throughout the dinner.

In the end, Jamie also told the "truth" to the Jones family.

"You must be wondering why I took the initiative to come with Dan to visit your family. Of course, this is because Dan and I are good friends, but it is mainly a coincidence."

"You may not believe it if I tell you, but I have been contemplating a novel during this period. The story is about a wealthy small town, and suddenly one day a family moved in. They are simply a model family in everyone's eyes, and the husband is handsome. He is handsome, his wife is sexy and beautiful, and his son and daughter are obedient and sensible, and soon the family became celebrities in the town."

"Other families in the town imitated their family's lifestyle in all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, hoping to live the same happy life as them. However, in the end everyone found that no matter how they imitated, they could not become as happy as that family. On the contrary, Many people ended up going bankrupt and losing everything because of endless loan consumption.”

"Everyone blamed that family for their grievances. Soon the husband of that family was robbed and killed on his way home. The wife couldn't bear the blow and committed suicide by taking medicine. The son became addicted to drugs and the daughter fell into prostitution. What a beautiful family. In this way, he was completely destroyed by the jealousy of others."

After speaking, Jamie deliberately looked at the Jones family who were suddenly discolored.

"What do you think of the ending of this story?"
