Married Life's

1.26. End Up

“Quick clean-up, you don't want dad and mom to see you like that, do you?”

Jessica turned her body, in front of the door of her room there was Matt who was staring at her flatly. After saying that Matt left and locked the door to his room. Indeed, since yesterday he was confined in his room. Matt didn't let him go out one step, unfortunately there was already a bathroom and he really had no reason to go out, while eating was always prepared Matt without a minute.

Jessica walked lethargicly in front of the dresser, she saw her reflection in the big mirror. It was really sad, the long hair that he usually always combed neatly was now very messy, blackened eye bags, a pale face plus some bruises because he hit himself. That's what he usually does when he's guilty, beating himself up makes him so satisfied.

Matt looked at Jessica's room, to be honest he really could not bear to see Jessica like that, she was like a walking corpse. But really, his heart was so disappointed at Jessica's betrayal, and he couldn't forgive her yet, he might not even be able to forgive her. Jessica came out of the room with a better look, neat hair and a face that looks fresher with a thin makeup polish, Matt knew for sure make up to cover his pale face.

Jessica looked at the dinner table. Is this really all Matt prepared for it? Really, actually she's a lucky woman to get a guy like Matt. There are millions of women who want to be Matt's companion. Why is he so stupid like this?

“There can I help Matt?”

“No.”

Matt's short answer made Jessica fade her thin smile. Matt looked at Jessica, and he was quite sorry to remove that thin smile, but actually Jessica just wanted to help him. Why is it childish like this?

“Maybe today is my last day here, if I don't have time. Can you bring some clothes and my collection books home?”

“Why don't you bring your own?”

“Iya, yes. I'll bring it myself...

If it can still live.”

Jessica said the end of her sentence in a whisper, but could still be heard by Matt. What will happen? Don't tell me Jessica's planning a suicide like yesterday. Matt raised his shoulder no matter, more precisely trying not to care.

The sound of the house bell makes both of them aware of their respective daydreams. I don't know what, both of their hearts were racing. They could not imagine how the reaction of both of their parents got this news. Jessica followed Matt's steps moving towards the main door. Matt opened the main door and looked at the four middle-aged people with warm smiles.

“Yes God, I miss you so much Jessica.”

Jessica smiled and returned the embrace of Chelsea Boltom, the mother of a Matt. Indeed, Jessica with Matt's mother is arguably very close. While Jessica's mother who saw them hugging just smiled warmly.

“Please come in, Jessica and I have cooked good food for all.”

Matt came in and followed everything. The four middle-aged people stared in amazement at the food served, Italian specialties and combined with Asian specialties. The four of them looked at Matt and returned a big smile and turned to look at Jessica who could only look down. It's not really his cooking, it's just Matt preparing all this.

“Please eat all.”

“You're the one who cooked this Risotto Matt?” Mr. Villegas' question made everyone stare at Matt, including Jessica. He wanted to know what Matt would answer.

“That's Jessica who made.”

“Create Jess?”

Jessica flinched at Matt's reply. Why is Matt talking like that? Was he trying to help her or help her? I don't know, anyway he could just follow Matt's plan. Jessica just nodded small and smiled faintly at her father's question.

“Wah, surely you taught Jessica this Italian cuisine.” This time the sound amazed Mrs Villegas. Matt could only smile back at her.

“What did Matt do you invite us to? Or maybe Jessica has filled in?”

Madam Boltom almost spouted the warm tea she drank, while Mrs Villegas who said that just smiled guiltlessly. This time Madam Boltom's eyes were round, why didn't she think that way?

“Is it true Jess you've filled in? Am I really going to have a grandchild?”

Jessica flinched as suddenly Madame Boltom walked up to her and shook her shoulders. Really, he can't say anything. While Matt panicked because of his mother's overreaction, this was not what they thought.

“Mother, mom wait a minute!”

“See from the beginning you were so pale Jess and so limp. If you are pregnant, the mood is never good. Really, I'm so happy to finally have a granddaughter.”

This time Madam Boltom hugged Jessica tightly. While Jessica can only resign, she really wants to cry right now. He not only betrayed Matt, but betrayed Boltom's family, and even betrayed his family. He could see her only with a warm smile as he hugged her.

“Mom wait a minute, actually me and Jessica are getting divorced.”

Everyone was shocked, including Jessica. Can Matt say no to a moment like this? Madam Boltom let go of her embrace and looked at Jessica deeply. Jessica could only look down, she was scared, very scared.

“What's up?”

Of all the silence there was only Mr. Boltom's voice representing. Jessica's heart was racing, it was all over. And he has to be ready, ready to react to everything, ready to see everything.

“Jessica cheated behind me.” This time the four middle-aged people were staring at Jessica. Jessica could only duck deeply, she was too afraid to hold her head up.

“Is that Really Jess?”

“M..Sorry.” Jessica couldn't hold back her tears. “A..I'm sorry.”

The sound of a loud slap made everything flinch. The red liquid came out from the corner of Jessica's lips, while in front of her there was Mr. Villegas who looked at her with mounting anger. Matt looked at her in disbelief, how angry she was with Jessica, he did not dare to hurt the girl.

“Come home now, come with me!”

“Dad, dad I'm sorry. I'm sorry.” Mr. Villegas pulled Jessica's hand violently, taking her out of the house. Madam Villegas looked at her son with worry. The rest of the Boltom family are now staring at Mrs Villegas.

“Sorry, sorry, please forgive Jessica's behavior.”

Mrs Villegas followed in the footsteps of her husband and son. Matt just stared blankly at the Villegas' departure. Mrs Boltom looked at the child, hugged Matt and stroked Matt's back gently.

“Mother.”

“Dear, I did not expect Jessica to be such a girl.”

“Mother.” Madam Boltom let go of her embrace and looked at Matt.

“Is Jessica going to be okay?”
