She smiled. She thought he was just joking. It was an ad to celebrate the marriage between the Shaw family and the Hall family. Who would dare to take it down?
Her vision was dark. She could feel the warmth of his hands that were pressing against her skin.
After a moment, she pulled down his hands, looked up at him and said, “Jack, thank you.” She thought he had said that to comfort her. “Let’s go. I’m hungry.” She took his hand and walked away towards home.
Jack’s eyes stole one last glance at the large advertisement before he followed after her.
When they reached the rental house, Serenity went to the security booth to pick up a delivery. It was a sweater she bought.
She opened the packaging, took out the sweater and touched it to inspect the texture. It was okay; worth the price at least.
“Jack, try this sweater on and see if it fits,” she said.
It was a blue and green checkered sweater. After Jackson put it on, Serenity’s eyes brightened. Wow, he looked good in it.
She suddenly thought of something and said, “Jack, lower your head.”
Jackson lowered his head obediently. Serenity grabbed a comb and combed his fringe backwards, revealing his well–defined face.
She had always known that he was good–looking, but his fringe usually covered most of his eyes so his face was barely visible. Now that it was, it amazed her.
“Our Jack is so handsome,” she couldn’t help but say. “If you comb your fringe back all the time, you would have groups of girls chasing after you when you hand out leaflets on the streets.”
He smiled faintly. The way she said “our Jack” seemed to please him.
“Why don’t we go to the hairdresser later so that you can get a haircut? It’s such a shame to see your beautiful eyes get covered up all the time,” she tried to persuade him.
“It’s not. As long as you get to see them, that’s enough,” said Jackson.
Serenity smiled. “You can wear this sweater tomorrow. I’ll wash the sweater you’re currently wearing.”
“Okay.”
She took out her phone and took a picture of him in the sweater, then posted it on Facebook.
Speaking of Facebook, her friends list was pretty empty. There were only two people on it. One was Lisa Quest and the other was Jackson.
“I’m showing Lisa the photo. She must be so envious to see that I have a brother like you,” said Serenity. Only at times like these would she behave more like a girl and stop being so gloomy.
As expected, Lisa liked the photo not long after and sent a reply. “The sweater looks good. How much is it?”
“$29.90. The quality of the material is good and it’s quite thick too, so it should be pretty warm,” Serenity replied.
“I think I’ll buy one for my dad,” said Lisa. “By the way, your new brother is like a model. Everything looks good on him. I think he can actually be a model for online stores. The threshold isn’t high and it pays much better than handing out flyers.” From NôvelDrama.Org.
Serenity thought about it and asked Jackson, “How do you feel about becoming a model for online stores?”
“I’m not that interested,” he said.
“But it pays much better than your current job of handing out flyers and it’s a little more stable too,” she said.
