Chapter 2586 - 2594: Just Like a Heartbreaker
"Last time I said I would spend some quality time with you, but I’ve been too busy. Today, I finally made time and decided to take a few days off." Father Carter said, "These few days, I’ll be here to accompany you both properly. By the way, your brother mentioned that lately you’ve gotten really good at that grilled corn technology you learned from the villagers?"
"Really good, really good! Everyone who tastes it praises how delicious it is!" Jane Sampson nodded like a pecking bird, "Daddy, I’ll grill some for you all tonight to try."
After speaking, Jane Sampson suddenly realized, "Daddy’s going to stay here for several days!"
Jane Sampson turned her head towards Coco Edwards, chuckling, "I’ll talk to James Black, we’ll reschedule the flight tickets, and we’ll head back after daddy’s vacation is over."
Coco Edwards: "..."
"What’s with that expression?" Jane Sampson whispered to Coco Edwards, "Isn’t that the right thing to do?"
"You know, the way you smile while talking about rescheduling the flight tickets really makes you look like a jerk girl?" Coco Edwards asked Jane Sampson with a blank face, "The kind of jerk girl who purposely plays it cool with someone who loves you to death."
Coco Edwards voice was not soft, and several people standing around heard it, especially Granny Carter, who was grinning from ear to ear.
The jerk girl Jane Sampson stood there looking like she had a lot to say and wanted to explain herself, but in the end, she shrugged her shoulders and sighed, "Loving someone is really hard."
Afterwards, she waved her mobile phone to the seniors, saying, "I’ll give James Black a call, lest he waits for me tomorrow."
Jane Sampson then sprinted to a corner, sneaky-like, to call James Black.
At midday, when James Black saw Jane Sampson calling him, he inexplicably had a bad feeling.
It’s like, going out and having fun, forgetting to call him in the blink of an eye, and suddenly at midday, when it should be her peak time of fun, she remembers him.
In this case, either she got into trouble, or she’s about to tell him some not-so-great news.
James Black hesitated for a few seconds before gently tapping the mobile phone screen twice with his fingertips and cautiously answered. Over there, he immediately heard Jane Sampson’s sweet and lively voice, "Hello~"
That feeling grew even stronger.
"I have something to tell you." Jane Sampson’s voice was soft and gentle, "My dad’s on vacation and he’s here in the countryside to keep me company, so could you help cancel the flight tickets? I’ll buy a ticket to return myself once dad’s vacation is over."
Just as expected.
James Black wasn’t surprised at all.
"It’s rare for daddy to have time off, of course, I’d want to spend time with him. You wouldn’t deny me this, would you?" Jane Sampson rubbed her chin, "What if you’re not happy about it?"
"You mean to say, let me be unhappy then." James Black knew Jane Sampson’s style too well.
"Am I really that bad in your eyes?" Jane Sampson with a tone suggesting it’s impossible for her to be like that, "I wanted to cheer you up, but I didn’t expect you to think of me that way, so you might as well be unhappy then."
James Black took two deep breaths, oh well, oh well, he can’t take offense with his wife anyway; if he did, he’d be fuming by now.
What else can he do?
Can he compete with his father-in-law for attention?
He can’t compete even if he tries.
Anyway, in Jane Sampson’s ranking of the most loved people, he’s at the bottom.
Wasn’t this already made clear to him during the last time they recorded the show?
