Chapter 13: We Can Make a Deal

“What are you shooting?” Jocelyn suddenly appeared in front of the little reporter. He was startled by her and did not stand firm, then he fell on the floor, stammering. “Nothing…” “Nothing?? Show me your camera." Jocelyn reached out. The little reporter consciously hid his camera behind him, glanced at Jocelyn and was ready to run. “Are you taking photos of Mrs. Morrison?” Jocelyn quickly grabbed the tape of his camera and whispered. " Don’t run, or I will call the police. " “I won’t. I won’t run. Can you just let me delete it?” Now he even wanted to cry. He knew clearly the consequence of offending the Morrisons. Jocelyn smiled, which was meaningful. “You do not have to delete it. Why you take photos of Mrs. Morrison shopping? Can it help you make a headline? Do you want some explosive news? How about we make a deal? " “...” As night fell, Yanjing seemed busy with neon lights. Before Arthur got back in the evening, Jocelyn had already had dinner, humming and playing with her dress and jewelry in the room. The feeling of spending other people’s money was totally good. Spending money which belonged to people she used to hate was even better. When she came back and gave card to Selena Alger, there was nothing more interesting than Selena’s expression at that time. “Why have not you been home all day? Where have you been? " Seeing Arthur was back, Jocelyn asked casually. Arthur gave her a cold glance. "Do not ask me anything you should not. " Jocelyn frowned. Her good mood of the day was disturbed by his words. If this happened before, she would have made it a big event and kept pestering him. She suppressed her temper and took the suit out of the bag. "I won’t ask. Let me tell you what I have done today. I bought you a suit. Try it. " “I do not want.” Arthur said then pushed his wheelchair to the bathroom. Seeing him, Jocelyn turned angry. She grabbed the handrail of his wheelchair and forced him to stop. "You have to try it on. " Arthur's eyes fell on her hand. For a moment, he raised his head slowly and said indifferently." Give me a reason. " “Reason? I am your wife, and I bought you clothes, as the old saying goes, husband and wife are birds in the same forest..." She stopped in the half and suddenly found something wrong. Arthur looked at her strangely. She coughed and said. "Anyway. We are husband and wife. We have to stand together when facing the outside.” “Stand together when facing the outside?” Arthur looked at her, with doubts in his eyes. “The clothes I have chosen for you are a match for my dress. It will be obvious to everyone that we are in love with each other when we show up at the wedding. And your handsome face and my beauty can make them envy and even hate us. Then we can kill all bad rumors and some people’s bad thoughts. Isn’t it standing together when facing the outside?” Seven points were true and three points were false in her words. Seven points were from that she couldn’t tolerate that Arthur’s mother used a dirty way to test him and tried to cover him. And three points were because she really needed Arthur to pretend they were in love at the wedding day, which could gain respect of others in their circle. Well, she did not know how much Arthur had believed, but he said yes , “Just put there, I will try it on later.”
