Chapter 8 Jane and I got married

Chapter 8: Jane and I got married As soon as the words were spoken, they heard a "bang", and the fruit plate in Chantelle Scott's hand fell to the ground, and Jim Scott was also startled and began sweating on his forehead. "Husband?" The elderly couple almost shouted in unison. Then they looked at each other and once again shouted in unison, "You two got married?" Helplessly, Jane covered her forehead and looked at Alex with a mournful expression. But Alex didn't didn��t seem to mind, He took out the newlywed certificate from his pocket, handed it to Jim respectfully, and said,"Dad, Mom,my name is Alex Fletcher, and I'm Jane��s husband.We just got our marriage certificate today. This is our first meeting, so please forgive us if we've made any mistakes." "No... nothing bad. It's great that you got married.Right, Jim?" Chantelle sat next to her husband, took a look at the marriage certificate, and smiled from ear to ear. Isn't this great? The son-in-law was tall and handsome and didn't look like a bad person from his appearance. He was a perfect match for their daughter. "You, child. this is your fault. Why didn't you tell me and your father about such a big matter as marriage? And he is such an excellent and modest young man." Chantelle blamed Jane a bit.��After all, marriage is a big matter, and you should have mentioned it beforehand.�� "Oh, Mom, I know I was wrong. In fact, me and that... Alex , we have known each other for a long time. We decided to get our certificate at the last minute, so we didn't have time to tell you. Right, honey?" Jane smiled at Alex, gently holding his hand with her left hand, but tightly pinching his arm. Alex winced in pain and quickly understood, "Yes, Mom, I really like your daughter. She is the most adorable girl I��ve ever met!" He reached out and pinched Jane's tender little face. Seeing that Jane also frowned in pain, Alex let go slowly. Seeing their affectionate display, Chantelle was overjoyed, but still had a trace of dissatisfaction and said, "You, girl, you hid a boyfriend from me. I arranged blind dates for you every day. Was it easy for me?" After speaking, she lightly poked Jane's forehead with her hand, "Why do you have to be so difficult? If you do it again, don't even think about coming home." "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely 'discipline' Jane from now on. If she does something wrong, punish me instead. After all, I'm her husband, right?" ��Blind date? How many times have you been on them?�� He thought, ��It��s a bit too much, but fortunately he showed up in time, otherwise, this girl would have been taken by someone. Hearing Chantelle mentioned that she had been on many blind dates,surprisingly, there was a hint of displeasure in Alex's heart. He then gave a meaningful glance at Jane. "You speaks so well, no wonder my daughter decided to marry you." After only a few minutes of meeting, Chantelle already found Alex pleasing in every way. It seemed that the gods had truly answered her prayers, as she has been praying silently for so long for her daughter to get married. And, to a talented and handsome man like him. Chantelle Scott was almost moved to tears. Meanwhile, Jim Scott, remained silent and stared at Alex intently, feeling like he had seen him somewhere before. He couldn't recall it for a while, but he felt like he had definitely seen that face before, and not just once... After a while, a sudden flash of inspiration came to Jim Scott, and he got up from his seat and went to the TV cabinet. He picked up the newspaper on top of it and looked at it for a moment before being surprised. "Did you say your name is Alex Fletcher?" "Well, yes, Dad." Alex replied respectfully. It seemed that Jim had figured out his identity. Alex still had a smile on his handsome face, and his calm gaze was difficult to read. "You��re the eldest son of the Fletcher family? Alex Fletcher?" Jim's jaw almost dropped in shock. "Yes, that's me. However, no matter what, I won't let Jane suffer any grievances. Dad, you can rest assured." Alex replied firmly. Jim frowned slightly, obviously a little worried, but upon hearingAlex 's assurance, he felt much more at ease, and his face was filled with a smiled again. It must be a good thing for his daughter to marry Alex , who holds power in the capital city. Chantelle was startled after hearing this, and felt as if she was dreaming. Her daughter had actually gotten married, and to someone as famous as Alex. She hesitated for a moment, feeling overwhelmed, before finally blurting out with joy,"I knewour Jane gentle, kind, and capable, would find a better man than that guy, Liam Harris hmph... ...though Lilly Scott stole Jane's boyfriend, Jane definitely could find someone better! That's what they call a blessing in disguise... "Exactly!" Jim nodded in agreement with his wife��s words. Chantelle moved to Alex 's side, laughing, suddenly couldn't help but burst into tears, and took his hand, "Mom is at ease now that Jane has you.Mom can finally be at ease..." However, Jane didn't hear a word of what was said afterwards, and only those two words remained in her mind: Liam Harris. It seemed like it had been ages since she had heard those two words. Over the past two years, Chantelle and Jim had been very careful every day, afraid to say the wrong thing,or accidentally mention this name and make their daughter sad. So the elderly couple restrained themselves and didn��t mentioned it. But now, Chantelle had finally lost control and inadvertently touched Jane's most sensitive nerve. Two years ago, if this man hadn't heartlessly betrayed her, Jane might have already become a mother... Jane was a little absent-minded, her face was a little ugly, and her eyes dimmed a bit, "Mom, can we stop talking about this, Let the past be the past." When she said this, Jane awkwardly picked up the glass on the table, turned around to get a drink of water. "Yes, yes, Mom won't say anything more. It's getting late anyway, and since it's your first time visiting our house, how can we let you eat noodles? Your Dad and I will cook something delicious tonight. Let's have dinner at home and spend the night." Chantelle said, laughing as she dragged Jim into the kitchen. Jane put the glass on the coffee table, just turning around around and heading back to her room without saying a word. Just as she was about to close the door and be alone for a while, she didn��t expect that,Alex would follow her in,,blocking the door with his hand."Who is Liam Harris?" He asked. It��s those two words again, and Jane was about to go crazy. She thought that after two years, she had forgotten them, but now that they were broght up, it still hurt like hell.
