Chapter 24 Only the devil can play with people’s hearts
The three of them looked at each other, feeling as if a disaster was imminent. Although everyone gossiped about John so enthusiastically, it was because their relationship was really good. Tim, who usually looks like a tough guy in front of everyone, suddenly had his privacy breached.
"Damn it, it's all your fault Jack, why did you ask me to stop the car?" Hannah complained in a low voice.
"I didn't, I just slapped you." Jack defended weakly.
John's expression was the most exaggerated: "God, he won't kill us to silence us."
Just when the three of them were afraid to express their anger, Tim had already wiped the corners of his eyes and stood up, strode to the car, and looked at the three people in the car expressionlessly: "I don't want to go home today, do you have a place to drink? ?”
The three of them nodded, and John stammered: "I'm just going to Hannah and Jack's place. Jack said he prepared a lot of delicious food. Do you want to, uh, come with us?"
Tim opened the door without saying a word and got in the car, sitting in the back seat with John. Hannah stepped on the accelerator and started again. There was silence in the car for a while. After a while, Jack cautiously said, "Tim, are you okay?"
Tim was silent for a while, and his voice still had a strong nasal voice: "Isabella called a lawyer after she woke up and gave me a divorce agreement. She didn't want anything, she just wanted to end the relationship with me. "
The car was silent again. After a while, John patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "You deserve better."
Jack opened his mouth, not knowing what to say to comfort him. In his opinion, this might not be a bad thing.
Back at Hannah's house, he asked Hannah to help him move a high stool into the kitchen. Jack sat down and started working on dinner. Tim accompanied Hannah to the living room to play PS games. John, who had nothing to do, wandered into the kitchen and asked if he wanted to help. handle.
"Is your injury okay?" Jack asked in surprise.
John pointed to his leg: "Aren't you injured too?"
Jack sighed and gave him tasks such as peeling garlic and washing vegetables. The two chatted while working.
"Is your female doctor still single now?" The two of them were now getting along in private as old friends. John had completely regarded Jack as an equal peer, so Jack didn't have so many scruples about what he said.
"Are you talking about Jia Lisi? I saw that she was still wearing a wedding ring, so I didn't ask any more questions. Besides, it's been so many years."
"Married people Q are the best to hook up with, right? These hot people Q are usually not satisfied in some aspects, because their husbands have gradually begun to no longer care about their feelings. Besides, you still have an old relationship. Say Maybe we can continue our relationship." Jack began to talk nonsense seriously.
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 just thinking like this that ruins many people's lives."
"Hahaha, I fooled you, this is the correct answer." Jack laughed in a successful mischievous manner.
John's tense expression suddenly relaxed, and he breathed out a sigh of relief: "Don't try to bewitch me, you devil."
Jack corrected: "It's the devil. The devil can only destroy, and the devil can play with people's hearts."
"But I think you should still go with that one."
"Garys?"
"Yes, talk to your old lover. At least you owe her an apology, right?"
John thought for a while and nodded: "I will try to explain to her next time I meet her. It was indeed my fault at the beginning."
Jack laughed secretly in his heart and continued with a calm expression on his face: "Anyway, I felt that the way Jialis looked at you was not right that day. Maybe she still has feelings for you. I think you should ask clearly. Maybe She's divorced but hasn't taken off the ring yet, or maybe she and her husband are separating, which is very common in this beautiful country."
"Hey! Shut up, you devil." John smiled and waved the celery in his hand, and the water droplets on it spread all over Jack like holy water.
"I will make it clear to her." He thought for a moment and added, but he didn't know how or what to make it clear.
Jack was very happy with John's answer. In his previous life, he had never been exposed to what the real American society was like. All the information and stereotypes came from American TV series and the Internet.
Before the craze of political correctness swept across the beautiful country, most of the three views and universal values conveyed in most American TV dramas were actually in line with the world's cognition, and they often reflected some dark sides of society, such as drugs and guns. , gangsters, corrupt politicians, etc. This is also the main reason why Jack hated the beautiful country in his previous life but loved American TV series.
But at least some of the Americans of that era were still sane. Just like these plot characters in the world of American dramas, they are either rational or emotional, some are kind-hearted, and some are righteous. Although they all have their own shortcomings, they also appear to be more flesh and blood.
Night fell, after nearly 3 hours of busy work, it was already dinner time. "You two intact guys, can you move your butts? Come over and serve the food." Jack shouted towards the living room.
Hannah and Tim, who were playing games and bickering on the sofa, put down their game controllers obediently. When they got closer, they saw a table of sumptuous dishes and their mouths opened wide in surprise.
It has to be said that as a developed country that can suck the blood of the whole world through its knife music, the ingredients in the supermarkets in the United States are extremely cheap. A table is filled with rock sugar elbow, garlic lobster, charcoal grilled lamb chops, tomato beef brisket, etc. , the total cost was less than $100.
Of course, today’s ingredients were paid for by the little rich woman Hannah. Jack’s whole body, including the steel, couldn’t even get 50 dollars. There were still several days before payday. He had paid 5,000 dollars for bail before and he didn’t know when. I can come back.
"Why have I never eaten these before? How many other recipes have you hidden?" Hannah held Jack's arm and shook him, making him tremble.
Tim looked around and pretended not to see anything: "Is there any beer here?" This usually serious guy really treated people as friends and turned a blind eye to the ambiguous relationship between Hannah and Jack.
"Want to try Siris' white wine?" Jack rolled his eyes and said to himself, since you want to drink to relieve your worries, I might as well put you down today and see what this guy with an old face all day long is like when he's drunk. Sample.
As he said this, he pulled out a box of Erguotou from the corner. This was what he discovered not long ago. Lao Mei is actually not used to drinking traditional liquors with strong smells such as Maotai. Instead, he is more receptive to some light-flavored high-altitude liquors. some.
