Should he act as if he didnât hear them? It seemed there was little else he could do. It was rare for Jett to agree with his sister, but this time he nodded in agreement.
âHeâs a bit too risky.â
Fannie clenched her teeth and said, âIâll be more careful next time! Anyway, what brings you guys here?â
Dulce said, âItâs all because of Jett! He found out I stood you up and insisted we come over to apologize. You havenât had dinner yet, right? Look, Jett brought your favorite dishes!â They uncovered the dishes, and the enticing scent filled the air.
At that moment, the doorbell chimed again.
Bobby got up to answer it. His delivery had finally arrivedâa cold burger and fries.
Even Dulce couldnât help but feel sorry for him.
gαâηÏνðâsâ¤com is your story source Jett offered, âHave you eaten yet? Come eat with us.â
âForget it.â Bobby unwrapped his burger. âIâve got a real craving for burgers tonight.â
Jett insisted, âJoin us. Thereâs too much food here for just us.â Bobby knew better than to torture himself. With such a genuine invite from Jett, he felt compelled to accept.
As soon as Bobby sat down, he heard Jett say, âOnce weâre done here, Iâll lend you some money for a hotel. Fifi is a girl. Itâs not convenient for you to stay here overnight.â
Bobby wasnât a fool; he picked up on Jettâs underlying hostility.
âThereâs no need for that, Mr. Lee. My friend is coming to get me.â Fannie was a bit surprised. So Bobby did have friends.
Yet, the room fell silent, the air thick with tension.
It wasnât long before Katherine and Shawn showed up.
When Katherine spotted Bobby, she frowned in annoyance.
âWhy do you always have to bother people?â
She rubbed her pregnant belly, wishing her future child would be less of a handful than Bobby.
Meanwhile, Shawn glanced over at Jett, offering a warm, apologetic smile.
âSorry for the trouble he caused. Iâll make sure to educate him properly.â He made it sound as if Bobby were his own son.
âItâs all good.â
Once outside, Shawn drove while Katherine sat in the passenger seat, turning to ask Bobby, âWhy were you at her place? You donât like Fannie, right? Donât lead her on if youâre not planning to marry her. Please, start acting responsibly, okay?â
Bobby pouted, looking out the window.
âEnough already.â
Katherine let out a frustrated sigh.
She told Shawn to drive Bobby back home.
