Marriage And Love Again

“Austin…” Suny closed her eye to avoid Austin’s gaze. “It’s almost 10 o’clock. I’m sleepy.”

She yawned as she spoke. “Ok.”

Austin loosened his grip and stood up. “Then go to sleep.”

Suny cast a glance at and pulled the blanket up. “Good night.”

“Good night.” Austin was going to stay overnight, but a man and a woman alone in the same room would easily end up having sex. Suny wasn’t scared of any of these, but she was still a virgin. That made her a little nervous. Austin didn’t have a plan tonight. He turned off the lights, gently closed the door, and called Finn.

He could no longer let Jennifer run amuck. Jennifer’s scandal traveled fast on the Internet, and it dragged Suny and Austin in. Finn hesitated to call Austin because it was late at night. So, when Austin called him, Finn was a bit surprised. He quickly picked up the phone, “Mr. Johnson?”

“Make Jennifer disappear in J City.”

Finn came to his sense, and replied, “Got it, boss.”

After Jennifer’s home wrecker scandal went viral, the Dawson family had fallen into disrepute. Mrs. Dawson barely went out of the house. No one dared to say a word about this in front of Alex in the company, but this day, he overheard that people crazily discussed it at lunch while walking down the stairs.

“Did you see the trending topics last night? Jennifer Dawson is Mr. Dawson’s daughter!”

“She’s our boss’ daughter? Do you still remember Austin Johnson’s divorce from Suny Holland a year ago? Wasn’t it because of Jennifer? She had this thing for destroying other people’s marriages. She did something stupid on her debut and offended the public and apologized on the Internet. Remember?”

“Holy moly! You don’t say! What kind of person is she? Our boss’ family is from the upper class, isn’t it? How did they have such an evil person?”

The two female employees did not expect that Alex was still in the company. They gossiped in a voice that everyone could hear, and Alex was embarrassed. He gave Jennifer quite a tongue-lashing as soon as he returned home. Jennifer’s mother tried to say something nice to ease the tension, but it didn’t seem to help. Alex didn’t stop until his phone buzzed.

This call came at the wrong time. He yelled angrily, “What the hell happened again?”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“Hello, Mr. Dawson. I am Mr. Johnson’s secretary, Finn.”

Alex winced inwardly at Finn’s title. “Mr. Martin, I’m sorry. I thought it was my subordinate.”

Finn went straight to the point. “Mr. Dawson, you may have heard of your daughter’s thing, right? Mr. Johnson was after Miss Holland, so they’re very much likely to get back again. Miss Dawson has crossed Mr. Johnson’s bottom line. Mr. Dawson, Mr. Johnson wants you to know that he doesn’t want to see Miss Dawson again in J City. Oh, that’s from me. Kindly remind, me that you still have a son. If you don’t make a choice, Mr. Johnson will help you. I’m sorry to disturb you. Mission completed. Goodbye, Mister Dawson. Have a nice day.”

Finn hung up the phone, and Alex held his phone and stood there with a pale face.

Mrs. Dawson asked tentatively, “What’s wrong? Who is it? Why do you look so pale?”

Alex came to his senses and immediately stood up to yell, “Ask your daughter!”

Jennifer left J City on the same day, but she didn’t know this was her last time in J City. Before she left, she said her farewells and comforted her parents. Alex stood there expressionlessly, staring at her. “If you still think of me as your father, you’d better mind your behaviors and stop doing things that you shouldn’t do!”

Jennifer knew she screwed up this time – she didn’t set Suny up, and what’s worse, she got Austin involved in this matter. She didn’t know what kind of deal his father secretly made with Austin to settle this case until her father called her.

“You’re never coming back. We didn’t and don’t have a daughter!”

This put Jennifer in a deep grievance. Alex chose his son. He even arranged for someone to watch Jennifer in case she would return.

A few days later, Suny learned the news. With Jennifer being sent abroad, the rumors in J City had gradually been put to rest.

It was June and J City was hot. The breeze was cool and comfortable. Suny shook off the heat when she finally got in the car. She arrived at the mall by nightfall, and the summer sunset glow tinted the city red.

Suny came out of the elevator and saw the restaurant. Today was Friday. The first floor of the mall was very quiet with few people. She then walked into the restaurant where on the contrary a lot of people were having dinner, and Austin had booked an outdoor table.

When she reached the terrace, Austin was already there. Seeing her coming over, he walked to the opposite side to pull out a chair for her. “Are you hungry?”

“Thank you.”

Suny put down her bag and shook her head. “Not very.”

As she spoke, she looked around. “It’s quite reassuring here.”

It was indeed better than the artificial air inside.

Austin poured her a glass of juice and said, “It has a nice view.”

Suny raised her eyebrows at Austin. “What do you want, Austin?”

It wasn’t easy to be fooled around, but Austin didn’t answer her question. He handed the menu to her and said, “Check what you like.”

Suny received the menu with a brief smile. “Don’t change the subject.”

Then she lowered her head and began to flip through the menu.

Guests went in and out of the restaurant, but they were the only guests on the terrace.

Suny had a feeling that Austin was planning something big tonight.
