Your Love Is My Weapon

Chapter 22

He held Harriet's waist in one hand and Harriet's bag in the other. They looked extremely intimate.

Arya was stunned. She didn't expect that Xavier and Harriet loved each other so much.

She looked away. When she turned around, she saw Jacob standing at the door.

There was a mocking look in his eyes, mocking Arya for her over-confidence.

'How could she compare to Harriet?'

'Harriet is the future daughter-in-law of the Jones Family.'

'What is she?'

'She is a disgraceful mistress. To put it mildly, she is only Mr. Jones plaything.'

'When Mr. Jones' feeling of freshness for her is over, she is a nobody.'

Arya didn't care about his mocking eyes and said faintly, "He seems to be quite busy. I'll come again

another day."

As she was about to leave, Jacob stopped her, "Mr. Jones is busy today. He has to go back to discuss

with his mother about the wedding date with Miss Harrison."

He paused for a moment, "But he hasn't forgotten you."

He put a box of 72-hour emergency contraceptives on the table, "This is what the boss ordered. He

hopes you stop thinking about what you shouldn't think. It's not that any woman can give birth to a child

for the Jones Family."

Arya looked down at the medicine on the table. Without hesitation, she picked it up and took out one,

and put it into her mouth.

She chewed the pill bit by bit, and the bitter taste spread in an instant.

After losing that child, she never thought about bearing any man a child.

It was just that she was too tired to remember it. Otherwise, she wouldn't need Xavier to remind her.

She swallowed all the bitterness, then looked up at Jacob, "Is that okay?"

'Didn't they say that the mistresses who don't want to be legitimate wives are bad mistresses?'

Jacob didn't expect her to follow suit so quickly, and he nodded absent-mindedly.

Arya had no masochistic tendencies and she didn't want to be humiliated here.

She passed Jacob and left.

Coming out of the building, she stood by the side of the road and had a sudden blackout. When she felt

better, she stopped a taxi and left.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Jones Family's old house was very good.

Xavier's father and younger sister were in the army all year round, and Xavier was busy, so the old

house was often deserted.

Xavier's mother, Daisy, was very happy that Xavier and Harriet came together today.

She asked the servant to cook a lot of dishes. Harriet wanted to help in the kitchen, but Daisy pulled

her to sit on the sofa in the living room.

"I heard from Xavier. Do you have any requirements for the wedding date?" Daisy liked Harriet. After

all, she was the one his son liked. Although her family was not that noble, it was an innocent family.

Harriet lowered her head and looked shy, "It's all up to you, Daisy."

Daisy smiled and looked at her son, "We have to wait for your father to come back. Anyway, marriage

is a solemn decision. I'll call your father tonight to see when he'll be back and I'll find someone to

choose a date. Do you think it's okay?"

Xavier was not in a high spirit and said perfunctorily, "You can decide it."

Daisy didn't understand what her son meant, "You have no requirement for your wedding date?"

"I want the wedding to be grand. Just don't let Harriet down. The rest is up to you."

He propped his head up with one hand and leaned on the sofa. He rubbed his eyebrows and looked NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

very tired. He didn't want to talk much about the wedding date.

"You're not young anymore, so I'll try my best to arrange the wedding before the New Year." Speaking

of Xavier's marriage, she sighed slightly, "People of your age are all married and their children are

about to start kindergarten. Finally, you are getting married this time."

Xavier closed his eyes and pretended not to hear. Daisy had mentioned it to him before, and he had

prevaricated.

He didn't know why he had no desire to get married.

This time he offered to marry Harriet because he felt that it was time for him to start a family and that

Harriet was worthy of the title Mrs. Jones.

These were enough.

The servant in the kitchen prepared the food, and Harriet took the initiative to help Daisy into the dining

room.

Harriet picked up food for Daisy. Daisy was in a good mood, and she patted Harriet on the back of her

hand, "You're really a good girl, obedient and considerate."

"Daisy, you are flattering me." Harriet lowered her head shyly.

Daisy didn't continue this topic. She changed the subject and looked at her son, "You can't be so busy

after marriage. I want a grandchild as soon as possible. You are the only son of the Jones Family. You

two have to give birth to a few more children in the future."

After giving birth to Bridget at that time, she had many miscarriages. Her body was hurt and she could

not have another child. Otherwise, she would not have had only two children.

The Jones Family had also been less prosperous than Xavier's generation.

Now Xavier was thirty, but he was still unmarried. It was inevitable that Daisy was a little anxious.

Xavier was drinking soup and almost choked when he heard his mother's words.

He coughed, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and casually threw it on the table, "Don't just talk about

these things."

Harriet was adept at reading others. She quickly handed over a glass of water but Xavier didn't take it,

"Don't leave if you have time. Stay here with my mother."

After that, he walked out of the dining room without looking at anyone.

Daisy was also unhappy and threw her chopsticks away.

'It was him who wanted to get married. I just said that I wanted a grandchild. Did he have to be

unhappy?'

Harriet hurriedly tried to coax Daisy, "I heard that Xavier has been busy these days, so maybe he's in a

bad mood. Please don't bother yourself arguing with him."

Daisy knew her son well. There must be something wrong with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't lose his

temper all of a sudden.

She looked at Harriet critically, "Did you two fight?"

"No, we're good... Actually, Xavier has told me." She lowered her eyes shyly, "He said after getting

married, he wants a few more children, so our home will be lively."

Harriet couldn't figure out what was wrong with Xavier either, but it didn't matter. She wanted to let

Daisy believe that she and Xavier were on good terms.

This would help them get married smoothly.

Daisy looked at Harriet's shy expression and felt that she might have thought too much. Xavier was just

stressed at work and didn't want to listen to her nagging.

After realizing that, she was not in such a bad mood. She picked up her chopsticks and asked Harriet

to eat with her.

She asked Harriet to stay overnight.

This was exactly what Harriet wanted.

After leaving the old house, Xavier drove aimlessly. Suddenly, he parked the car by the side of the

road. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and puffed on it.

Curls of smoke filled the car. His hand casually rested on the car window and flicked the ashes. He

seemed to have thought of something. He took out his phone and called Jacob.

The call was answered soon.

"Help me sort out the shares of K&T Inc."

Jacob was stunned for a moment but soon came to his senses.

'Is my boss going to give those shares to his future wife?'

The more he thought about it, the more likely it was. He replied quickly, "Okay, when do you want it?"

"Tomorrow."

Xavier hung up without hearing Jacob's reply.

After finishing his last puff, he threw away the cigarette butt and started the car to leave.

Without noticing it, he stopped the car at the clubhouse.

He didn't know why he came here.

However, at this moment, Jasper was walking out of the clubhouse with Arya in his arms. Arya

wrapped her arms around Jasper's neck and buried her head in his arms. The two of them looked very

intimate...
