After staring at herself in the mirror for quite a long time, Geraldine still felt a little uncertain and asked, “What do you think of my outfit, Jenny? Does it look good?”
Jennifer, who had on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, nodded at her and replied, “Yes, it does. Donald has already come downstairs, so you guys should get a move on.”
“All right, Jenny.”
Geraldine then walked up to Donald and wrapped her arms around his.
As though his arm was shocked by electricity when her body pressed against it, Donald quickly pulled his arm back and shot the woman a fierce glare. “What are you doing? Get away from me!”
Geraldine pouted and turned toward Jennifer as she said, “Look, Jenny! He yelled at me!”
“What's the meaning of this, Donald? Let her hold on to you!” Jennifer snapped at him angrily.
Not wanting Jennifer to ruin her health by getting angry, Donald gave in immediately.
“Darling, you... All right; I'll let her hold on to me right away, so please don't get angry!”
“Listen up, Donald! You need to resolve Geraldine's problem during your trip to the Harper residence, got it?” Jennifer asked with a stern look on her face.
“Understood! I will be sure to complete my mission!” Donald replied.
With a sense of satisfaction, Jennifer nodded. She then continued to discuss work-related matters with Jane.
Because it was just Donald and Geraldine who would be heading over, he decided to drive an ordinary-looking Passat and headed straight to the Harper residence.
New Littbourg was not too far away from Pollerton, so it took them a little over three hours to get there.
Donald was about to get out of the car when Geraldine called out to him.
She then helped adjust his shirt collar as she spoke. “You're my boyfriend now, so you need to make me look good, got it?”
