NovelOnlineAnd if he ended up with someone else, I'd just act like | didn’t know | might even with them fuck,
Yvonne was totally spoiled, which was why she turned out so overbearing. If Jared had more kids, there was no
way she’d be as brady as sh Maybe her whole he would be different.
Night had already allen by the tI finished work and headed back to my apartment, | wasn’t expecting Sally to
show up at my done:
She cby hersell, and the moment she walked in, | could tell she wasn’t too happy.
As soon as she sat down on the couch, | brought her a glass of water. Sally looked atseriously and said,
“Yvonne toldyou've been staying these past few days. Victoria, tellthe truth. Are you and Jared having
problems!”
There was no point hiding it anymore, so | nodded. “Yeah, things just aren’t the sbetween us anymore.”
“Is this all because of Tracy? Didn't | already tell Jared to let her go? Are you still making a fuss about that?
Victoria, lettell you. Jared is the kind of man any woman would dream of marrying.
“He doesn’t have any bad habits. He's handsome. His manners are impeccable. What on earth could you
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtpossibly find fault with?” Sally's voice shot up a notch, her frustration written all over her face.
I knew Sally would be upset. After all, in her eyes, Jared could do no wrong, both as a son and as a husband.
“Mom, don’t get worked up. Have swater,” | said calmly.
“Victoria, you can’t just keep harping on his tiny mistakes, Go look at other husbands out there, Guys as good as
Jared aren't half as loyal, and the ones ashandsashim don’t have his brains.
“Hespoils Yvonne but never lets her get out of hand, and he’s always treated you well. The life you're living is
what every woman wishes she had,” Sally said, getting more and more worked up, like | was being ungrateful
“Mom, | know all that,” | replied, my voice flat.
“You have no idea. All you ever do is nitpick Jared's tiny mistakes. You've been married for so long. Stop treating
love as skind of life support. Jared’s got a million things on his plate.
“He can’t shower you with affection 24/7, You should be more sensible. If you feel bored, hang out with your
friends, you're not locked up,” Sally said. She was fine with me, but whenever things got rocky between Jared
and me, she was Team Jared.
“How about finding myself a boyfriend then?” | said, grinning, not even bothered anymore.
Sally spat out her water. She shota glare, full of exasperation. “Huh? This is all because you're mad about
Yared and that Tracy, right? Planning to get even by finding your own guy? Who's the lucky dude? I'll go play
matchmaker for you.”
Honestly, Sally’d always been a real character. Her quirks never failed to catchoff guard. By now, | was
pretty used to her being totally unpredictable. Seriously, the way she handled things just letspeechless.
“What's his name? Is he at handsas Jared? Is his career anywhere near Jared's level? You're not just chasing
after sguy for fun, are you? Don't let yourself gat fooled,” Sally pressed, totally serious
| dropped the act and shook my head. “No, Mom, | was messing around. But you know, sometimes people get
divorced for more than just cheating. Sometimes it’s just that their personalities clash or they see the world
differently.”
“What's wrong with Jared? He's got a great personality. And as for cheating, | grilled him about it, and he swears
nothing happened. But that Tracy, ugh, she’s something else,” Sally gritted her teeth her voice sharp
“She was messing around with Jared and got herself pregnant by sother guy. Victoria, I'm totally with you
when it comes to taking down shameless side chicks, but you need to give Jared a chance”
