This is another rant titled ' Why does webnovel continue to do this to me?' Why do I write sweet words, why do I have to be so inspired and propelled to make my readers smile with cringy yet sweet chapters, does Webnovel not want my dear readers to smile? Why do my beautiful words continue to vanish, all the hardwork and all the effort expended. Why? Why? Why?
Sorry that this rant is coming so shortly after the last one but I could not help it this time. After suffering such a loss I can only look at my pillow, laying on the dirty floor the only thing I can take my frustration out on in guilt and regret. I should not have tossed the dear important pillow that keeps me comfortable at night, and worse on the dirty floor. Yes, I haven't cleaned my room in days, so imagine the dust the dear pillow had to suffer. But what can I do? I need to publish this chapter and perhaps a second version could be better. Some remakes are usually better than the original but what are the odds of that happening?
Anyway, I am done ranting. Too annoyed to even use exclamation marks seems like a real waste of time. I hope you still enjoy the chapter.
PS: I know the song is old but listen to 'cry for me' by twice. It my most recent muse.
"What is he doing here?" Jason's angry voice called the attention of the two people who were just laughing at some joke that he didn't have the privilege of hearing.
"Oh? You're here, sit have breakfast." Jessie said with a beaming smile.
"Don't ignore me, why is he here?" He repeated glaring at the clearly unwanted visitor.
"I invited him, Matt has never tasted my cooking. Isn't that such a big crime?" Jessie asked.
Jason clenched his teeth, "I have never tasted your cooking."
Jessie gasped, covering her mouth with the back of her hand theatrically. "Really! My goodness! That's an even bigger crime!" She said. "Come, sit, let's solve this problem before the police find out. I can not go back to prison." She said with shudder.
"I am not a child, do not try to treat me like one." Jason was relentless.
Jessie sighed, untying the apron around her neck and waist she walked over to him. Grabbing his tie she pulled him downwards and placed a soft kiss on his lips. "I know your not a child obviously, but will you stop behaving like one?" She said.
Jason eyes narrowed at her. "Why did you invite Matt here?"
Jessie pursed her lips and tilted her lips "you're a big boy figure it out."
"Really?"
She sighed " I heard you fired you last secretary, good decision by the way but that means the position is vacant-"
"It isn't." He stated firmly.
"It is, I don't care who you hired as far as it's not Matt then it's vacant. Do you really want to go through the stress of training a new secretary? Not to mention all the issues with trust and all that."
"Now that seems like a problem I should be worrying about, all on my own don't you think?"
"Mmhmm... I do not want to be thrown out of your building again, one time is more than enough for me." She frowned.
Jason's eyes softened "that.... that will never happen again."
"You say that but you weren't even aware it happened." She said
Jason looked away from her eyes, "look I didn't mean it to hurt you. It wasn't your fault, you had a mad woman manning your affairs, I just want you to be surrounded by allies and not enemies. Hm? Please?"
Jason looked at her and sighed "I had a rule, never employ someone that had ever been fired, worse by my own self. Never date a woman I had broken up with."
"Yet you've broken those two rules. You're dating me even though we've broken up countless times and you hired Krystal again after you fired her. " Jessie said with a smile.
"Who?"
"Krystal, Jonathan's secretary? You know what nevermind." She gave up when she noticed the lost look he gave her.
"Anyway, stop being so stubborn and just hire him back, if you are too proud to admit your mistake then you can use me. Say I wouldn't have it any other way." She stated proudly.
"I did not make a mistake, i gave him explicit orders which he defied." Jason spat.
"Yes yes we all know about you orders." Jessie said dismissively. "Besides he save our lives with George and I know you know that it was him that called Sebastian."
"Fine" he said, snaking his arms around her waist he pushed her to him. "But what do I get in return?" He asked.
Jessie whose arms were flat on his chest to support herself smiled. "What do you want?"
Jason lowered his head and ran the tip of his nose from her ears to her neck causing her to shiver. Grabbing his face she kissed him again but this time deeper, taking his arm on her waist and placing it on her chest.
She moaned as he instinctively squeezed his tongue sweeping into her mouth, he nibbled on her lower lip then licked away the sting. She wrapped her arms around his neck pushed herself further into his grasp, hee finger combing through his hair.
"Not yet" he said pulling her back as she pulled away.
"Mmmhmmm, Matt first." She said.
"Tease." He scoffed and she gave him an innocent smile and walked back to the island.
Both men gave themselves hostile stares as Jason sat and they looked forward again. "I didn't know you cooked." Jason said.
Jessie turned to look at him "there's a lot you don't know about me." She said with a wink.
"Oh?"
"But we are not here to tall about my cooking..." she said looking between both men. Placing the food before them on the island. "Dig in."
Both men picked up their forks and took bites of her pancakes.
"Wow! Miss Marin, this is amazing!" Matt said with a big smile. Jessie eyes widened and she smiled.
"Really?" He nodded. "Then you can help yourself, I can make more for you if you want."
"Oh no no no, I don't dare stress you like that." Matt laughed.
"What do you think about the food, Jason?" Jessie asked.
Jason coughed, then cleared his throat, with a smile on his face he nodded wordlessly.
Jessie nodded. "Tch. Will it kill you to just say you like it. Anyways I'll you guys to it then."
When she left the room both men were spitting into napkins. "Wow, we really should talk about her cooking." Jason groaned.
"It wasn't that bad." Matt stated with a cough.
Jason looked at him, and laughed. "Just because you could laugh and smile, calling that poison good food so as not to hurt her feelings, I'll let you come back." He stated.
Matt laughed. "You're acting was no so bad as well."
