As Bobby spoke to Doris, Charles silently listen to their conversation. When he heard that she was blaming him, he grabbed the phone angrily. "Doris, there's nothing going on between me and Brandy, okay? Don't talk nonsense."
"Then, where did Nancy go?" Doris got angry. 'How dare Charles shout at me?!'
"I don't really know, okay?" To Doris' annoyance, Charles ended the call before she could say anything more.
"Hey, you bad man, Charles! I'm really pissed off. Charles, you bastard!" Doris cursed.
"What did Charles do to you? Why are you cursing him?" When Jay entered the room, he saw Doris walking around like a cornered beast. He didn't know whether to cry or to laugh at this sight of her.
"Nancy left again. She's probably pissed off by Charles. It must be because of his relationship with Brandy. How can Nancy not be angry? She is a proud person. How could she bear it? Charles went out with Brandy and drank alone! That's why Nancy left." The more Doris spoke, the more she became flustered. "Jay, I just realized that there is no good man in the world. No man is loyal to their beloved."
Confused, Jay's brows furrowed. "You must be kidding me, Doris. Am I not loyal to you?"
"Humph! Are you loyal? Then what about Eva? You are married and have your child, but you are still so irresponsible. Don't you feel guilty?" "Stop! Stop! Doris, I've explained everything that's going on between me and Eva. You can't get me wrong!" What Doris said was making Jay annoyed.
Even he hated that Eva kept calling him. He couldn't reject it, but he didn't know what to say whenever he answered her phone call.
He was having a headache because Doris misunderstood him, while Eva kept pestering him.
The situation he was in was definitely exhausting. If he had a choice, he never wanted to answer Eva's call at all.
However, it was only him and Pam in her world now. If he neglected Eva, her world would collapse.
And he didn't have the heart to let that happen.
"How can I not misunderstand you? You've been visiting the Su family too often. Tell me, Jay, how can I be at ease?" Doris pulled his ear. "Jay, what do you think we should do about this?"
Holding her hand that was pulling his ear, he replied, "Ouch, honey, let go of me. Put yourself in my shoes and think of what I should do."
"It's easy. Take me and Ace with you next time!" What Doris really wanted to do was meet Eva to make her sober up. She had to understand that Jay was now married and had a child. He was no longer a single man who could date any woman as he liked.
Hearing this, Jay looked at her in surprise.
"Are you dumb, Jay?" When he didn't respond, Doris waved her hand in front of him.
As if he realized something, Jay mumbled, "I think you're right. I can't escape from it anymore. If it goes on like this, I'll be tortured to death by Eva. I want her to know who I am now, and Doris..." "Why are you looking at me? Say it!"
"I want you to be friends with Eva. When you have nothing to do, take Ace and accompany her. I know she's not in love with me anymore, but she depends on me. In other words, she only sees me as a person who kills her loneliness."
What happened in the past was making Jay guilty, but Eva's dependence on him now was a burden to him.
He was under great pressure.
Doris thought what Jay said made sense after all.
Once she became friends with Eva, and Eva liked Ace, things would be a lot easier for all of them.
It was much better for her to let Eva shrink back from difficulties than to ask Jay to block her.
