"No need to worry about it." Tessa Caldwell felt that Shawn Morton was really annoying. Every time he's like this, she deeply understands why Sun Wukong is so afraid of Longevity Monk.
"No way! I must intervene!" Shawn Morton said with earnestness, "Men like that are unreliable, really. I'm the only one who's really good for you. Look, ever since our school days, I've been unwavering in my love for you. I'm so dedicated, there's no way I'd lie to you, right!"
Tessa waved her hand: "Can you stop talking?!"
Shawn Morton held Tessa's hand: "I know you're just shy. Tessa, we're so familiar with each other, no need to be bashful. For your own good, you really should get a divorce and be with me! Don't worry, I won't hold your infidelity against you, I'll still treat you as well as always!"
He was even more annoying than the Longevity Monk. Tessa felt like her head was going to explode, she was about to go crazy: "Aaaaah!! Please spare me, aaaaah!"
But Shawn Morton wouldn't let her go, still blabbering on: "I won't harm you, Tessa, I swear to the heavens, I'll truly treat you well!"
He had a look of sincerity that could move heaven and earth.
Tessa ran straight to the door and flung it open: "Go on, I'm not seeing you off."
"Huh?" Shawn Morton was dumbfounded, then whined, "No, Tessa, I just said so much to you, why won't you listen?"
Tessa ignored him; she just wanted to quietly be a beautiful woman, could no one please interrupt her!
"I'm not leaving; I already told you, my dad kicked me out, I have nowhere to sleep, you have to take me in for the night," Shawn Morton sat on the sofa, his expression tense, looking as if he was very angry and shouldn't be provoked!
"Here's some money, go sleep in a hotel." Tessa felt like she was going crazy.
"I don't like hotels, I want to sleep here." Shawn Morton then just lay down on the sofa.
"There's no place for you to sleep here, one room is our bedroom, the other is a storage room filled with stuff. You can only sleep on the sofa."
"Fine, I'll sleep on the sofa. I'm not leaving tonight anyway…"
Tessa really didn't want Shawn Morton sleeping at her place because she couldn't stand his constant complaints, his sulking, and his endless nagging like the Longevity Monk. But as a weak woman, she really didn't have the strength to throw him out.
She stomped into the bedroom, complaining to Faye: "Why don't you… do anything… about…"
The last syllable of the sentence trailed off as her face flushed red as blood. She suddenly rushed over, grabbed the bra Faye was holding, and stuffed it into the closet.
"Why are you playing with my underwear?" Tessa asked accusingly, but, embarrassed, her voice became inexplicably soft and coquettish.
In her heart, she cursed, "Pervert, fetishist, shamelessly aloof jerk, how can you secretly play with my underwear, it's so obscene!!"
Seeing Tessa's face turn beet red, Faye's lips curled slightly: "You left it lying around yourself…" His sharp eyes narrowed, fixed on her chest, "Don't tell me you opened the door to greet a guest with nothing on underneath."
"Ah!" Tessa instinctively hugged her chest and saw Faye's mischievous face, so she replied angrily, "What are you thinking? I have another on at home; this one is for wearing outside."
Faye chuckled with an ambiguous smile, "So you purposely left it on the bed."
