As the clock was ticking forward...She was furious that John didn"t follow her in the master"s bedroom. Grrrr!
He"d rather spend time with Caroline than with her!
Thirty minutes pa.s.sed...
Forty-five minutes pa.s.sed...
They were sure having a good time singing together!
Grrrrrrr!
She was now seething with silent rage!
...
In the living room...
After they finished their singing session...
Caroline has been waiting for this time alone with John. She sat down near him and began speaking in a low voice. "Brother in law, can I ask you a favor?"
John looked at her. "Yes. What is it?"
"Can I live here in your condo unit along with my sister?" she asked with a puppy dog eyes. Her face was hopeful.
John was too polite, he can"t say no to Catherine"s sister. "Yes of course. You are welcome here to live with us," he said. Maybe Catherine will feel happier if she will be surrounded by her loves one every day.
"Wow, thank you so much brother in law. I still have one more favor to ask," she said.
"And what is it?" he asked.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
"I want to find a job around here, maybe you have some available job that you can recommend to me. Don"t worry, am not choosy, when it comes to job ethics I am a hard worker," said Caroline.
John was pondering for a moment on what job he can give to Caroline. "Hmm, I can find you a job in one of my hotels nearby," suggested John.
"Yes. I love that! Any job will do," exclaimed Caroline. She had a hard time suppressing her joy.
"So, when are you planning to start moving here?" he asked.
"After I finished my contract with my current work, that will be two months from now," she answered quickly. She was screaming with joy inside, she felt like she wanted to give John a quick bear hug for being so kind and considerate to all her wishes.
"Okay. That"s settled then, you can continue singing here if you want. I will go to the master"s bedroom now and rest." John rose to his feet.
"Brother in law, can I sleep here for tonight? I will just go home early tomorrow. Please?" she really wanted to sleep in his amazing condo unit.
John nodded. "No problem. You can sleep in the guest room, there"s two bed in there," he said.
"Thank you so much brother in law! You"re too kind. My sister is very lucky to have you as her husband! Not only you are super kind you are also very handsome! You"re the best!" she grinned from ear to ear. She wanted to stroke his ego so that he will say yes to all her demands.
"Don"t mention it," John smiled and left the living room.
He entered the master"s bedroom and found Catherine sulking in the bed. He went to her side and kissed both her cheeks.
"What"s wrong, Cath?" he asked. He saw anger flas.h.i.+ng in her eyes for a brief second.
"Nothing," she retorted and turned her back on him.
Hmm, why she was in a bad mood today? John asked himself, he was deeply puzzled with her sour behavior.
"By the way, your sister asks my permission if she can live with us and she also asks for my help in finding her a job, she wants to work around here," John informed her while stripping his work clothes and change into his sleeping attire, cotton shorts, and t-s.h.i.+rts.
Her eyebrow rose immediately, he was not able to see her darkening expression. "And what did you answer her?" she asked in a loud voice.
"I said yes to all her request because she"s your sister," he said softly.
She pouted annoyed. "You should have asked my opinion first!"
John knitted his brows together. "Huh? Why do I have this feeling that you don"t like your sister to live here, with us?"
Catherine released a deep sigh. "My sister is trouble! I know her better than you do."
"Really? What kind of trouble?" he asked feeling puzzled by her cryptic reason. He was kind of hoping that she will be jumping with joy after learning that he will help her sister find a job the easy way. But he was stunned when she feels the opposite of what he was expecting! She looks like she was angry for some reason he can"t quite understand.
Catherine stared at him. She can"t say to his face the truth that she was feeling jealous with her sister. She was afraid that the Ella scenario will happen again. She was hesitating to tell him about her real feelings because he might label her as an immature child throwing tantrums again. Maybe she was just getting paranoid again!
"Catherine answer me! What kind of trouble your sister will be bringing to us?" he asked again, wanting to know the source of her being grumpy today.
"Nothing," she murmured. She shook her head and diverted her attention to the television.
"Fine," he mumbled and shrugged his shoulders.
Upon realizing that she no longer wants to continue the discussion, John entered the bathroom for a quick shower wanting to relax and soothe his confused mind.
That night they sleep and cuddled in the bed feeling uneasy.
John embraces Catherine lovingly from behind spooning her.
She kept to herself and he noticed her silence but he chose to ignore her tantrums hoping tomorrow she will return to her old self again.
