Chapter Twenty-Four: The Devil Plays with People's Hearts
The three of them looked at each other, having the illusion that a catastrophe was coming, don't look at everyone gossiping about John so energetically, but that is because the relationship between everyone is too good. And Tim usually looks like a tough guy in front of everyone, and this is suddenly broken into privacy......
"Damn, it's all your fault, Jack, why did you let me stop." Hannah grumbled under his breath.
"I didn't, I just slapped you......" Jack defended weakly.
John's expression was the most exaggerated: "God, he's not going to kill us." ”
Just when the three of them didn't dare to come out, Tim had already wiped the corners of his eyes and stood up, strode to the side of the car, and looked at the three people in the car with an expressionless face: "I don't want to go home today, do you have a place to drink?" ”
The three of them nodded like garlic, and John stammered, "I...... Just as he was about to go to Hannah and Jack's residence, Jack said...... He prepares a lot of delicacies, do you want to ...... Belch...... Come along? ”
Without saying a word, Tim pulled the door and got into the car, sitting in the back seat with John, and Hannah stepped on the gas pedal to start again. There was silence in the car for a while, and it took a while for Jack to cautiously speak: "Tim, are you okay?" ”
Tim was silent for a while, and his voice was still thick nasal: "Isabella called the lawyer when she woke up and gave me a divorce agreement, she didn't want anything but wanted to end the relationship with me." ”
There was silence again in the car, and after a while, John patted him on the shoulder and comforted, "You deserve better." ”
Jack opened his mouth, not knowing what to say comfortingly, which seemed to him to be a good thing.
Back at Hannah's house, Hannah helped him move a high stool into the kitchen, and Jack sat down and started to work on dinner, Tim accompanied Hannah to the living room to play PS games, and John, who had nothing to do, strolled into the kitchen and asked if he wanted to help.
"Are your injuries alright?" Jack was surprised.
John pointed to his leg, "Aren't you also wounded?" ”
Jack sighed and handed over the work of peeling garlic and washing vegetables to him, and the two chatted as they worked.
"Is your female doctor still single?" The two are now old friends in private, and John has completely regarded Jack as an equal peer, and Jack has not had so many scruples about talking.
"You say Caris? I saw that she was still wearing a wedding ring, so I didn't ask more, and besides, after all these years......"
"Married Q is the best guy to hook up with, isn't it? These hot Qs are usually unsatisfied in some way, because their husbands have begun to gradually stop caring about their feelings, and besides, you still have an old relationship, maybe you can continue the relationship......" Jack began to talk nonsense in a serious way.
John looked at him in surprise and shook his head repeatedly: "No, I can't do that, I mean, just thinking about it makes me nervous, it's the kind of thought that ruins a lot of people's lives." ”
"Hahaha, I lied to you, this is the correct answer." Jack let out a mischievous laugh.
John's nervous expression suddenly relaxed, and he exhaled as if relieved: "Don't try to trick me, you demon. ”
Jack corrected: "It's the devil, the devil will only destroy, and the devil will play with people's hearts." ”
"But I think you should still ...... with that one"
"Caris?"
"Yes, talk to your old lover, at least you owe her an apology, don't you?"
John thought for a moment and nodded: "The next time I meet her, I will try to explain to her, it was indeed a bad job for me at the beginning." ”
Jack secretly laughed in his heart, and continued with an immobile expression: "Anyway, I thought that the way Grace looked at you that day was not quite right, maybe she still has feelings for you, I think you should ask clearly, maybe she is divorced, but she has not had time to take off the ring, or maybe she and her husband are separating, you must know that this kind of thing is very common in the beautiful country." ”
"Hey! Shut up, you devil. John smiled and waved the parsley in his hand, and the water droplets on it sprinkled Jack like holy water.
"I'll make it clear to her." He thought for a moment and added, as for how to say it clearly and what to say clearly, it is not known.
For John's answer, Jack is still very happy, in his previous life, he has not been exposed to what the real beautiful country society is like, and all the information and stereotypes come from American dramas and the Internet.
Before the frenzy of political correctness swept through the beautiful country, most of the three views and universal values conveyed in most American dramas were actually in line with the world's cognition, and they often reflected some dark sides of society from the side, such as Du products, guns, gangsters and corrupt politicians, etc., which was also the main reason why Jack hated the beautiful country but liked American dramas in his previous life.
But at least some of the beauties of that era were still sober-minded. Just like these plot characters in contact with this American drama world, they are either rational or emotional, some are kind-hearted, some are righteous, although they all have their own faults, but they are also more flesh and blood.
As night fell, it was almost 3 hours of busy work, and it was already dinner time. "You two intact guys are not going to be able to move their butts? Come and serve the food. Jack snorted into the living room.
Hannah and Tim, who were playing a game on the couch and still bickering, obediently put down the game controller, and when they approached, they opened their mouths in surprise to see a table of sumptuous dishes.
I have to say that as a developed country that can suck the blood of the world through knife music, the ingredients in the Laomei supermarket are too cheap, rock sugar elbow, garlic lobster, charcoal grilled lamb chops, tomato brisket, etc. are all on the table, and the total cost is less than 100 dollars.
Of course, today's ingredients are the pockets of the little rich woman Hannah, Jack is now not enough to make up 50 knives with steel hammers all over his body, there are still several days before payday, and he has paid 5,000 dollars of bail before and I don't know when he will be back.
"Why haven't I eaten any of this before, and how many recipes do you still have?" Hannah hugged Jack's arm and shook his heart in horror.
Tim looked around and pretended he didn't see anything: "Is there beer here?" "This usually serious guy really treats people as friends, and he is quite on the road, turning a blind eye to the ambiguous relationship between Hannah and Jack.
"Want to try Seris's liquor?" Jack's eyes rolled, and he said in his heart that since you want to use wine to kill your sorrows, let's just put you down today and see what this guy with an old face looks like when he gets drunk.
As he spoke, he dragged out a box of Erguotou from the corner, which he also discovered not long ago, Lao Mei is actually not used to drinking traditional liquor with a strong smell such as Moutai, but is more receptive to some fragrant high-level liquors.
