Chapter 10

Charlie had no problem with this.

Andrea was not one of Burns anyway, and she was born poor. Being married to someone from the Adams would be a nice option for her.

If it weren't for the Burns, a person like her wouldn't even have the chance to talk to someone from the Adams.

However, Charlie was worried that Jason knew about it.

"Dad, why don't we send Jason out of town for a business trip until the day of our family dinner?" Charlie said to David.

David nodded and agreed. Charlie soon called Jason and ask him to be out of town.

Jason was a little unhappy when he got the call this time. He had just been away for a month, and hadn't really spent much time with Andrea. Yet, he had to go again.

Not to mention, the company already got a project manager to take care of everything. They didn't really need him there at all.

"They got a manager there already Dad." said Jason.

"Your grandfather takes this project very seriously." Charlie replied, "You should stay there for a couple of days to make sure everything goes well. It's not going to be too long just until the day of the family dinner then you can come back. "

Jason heard that he would just be away for two or three days, then he finally agreed. "Ok, I'm on it. "

**

Andrea was a little tired from work. She had just graduated and she was working in an advertising agency that's under the Burns name.

The company had just took over a huge case. It was almost the day of presentation, but her idea kept getting rejected.

After a long day of working, Andrea felt exhausted when she returned to the Burns‘ house.

She didn't feel like eating, so she was planning on going straight up and getting ready for bed.

The phone rang as soon as she walked into the gate.

The "devil" project manager had been tormenting her for the entire day, and she was a little spooked when she suddenly got the call. She thought it was her manager again.

When she saw Jason's name appeared on the screen, she finally relieved.

Andrea stopped for a second, and walked to a corner then picked up the call.

………

John counted on the time when Andrea got off from work. He saw her hided somewhere with her phone as soon as he went outside.

John lifted his glasses and quietly followed her.

For him, things like this was already a piece of cake. He had done it for many times.

John stood there leaning against a sycamore tree, and listening to Andrea answered Jason's call delicately.

Jason must had already told her about the business trip. There was obvious unwillingness in Andrea's voice. She started to act like a spoiled child.

“You are leaving again? How long? You just came back."

Her voice sounded extremely coquettish when she talked to Jason. It was almost like every word she said could just took his breath away.

Putting his arm around his chest, John heard Andrea's voice while staring at her. The only thing he was thinking at the moment was to take her into his arms.

"Okay, just be careful on the road." Knowing that Jason was coming back on the weekend, Andrea's finally lightened up a little. "Don't work too hard and don't drink too much. You have a stomach problem, remember? "

"Ok, don't worry. I will be good." Jason smiled.

"Oh before I forget, wear something nice this weekend for the family dinner. That's when we will tell everyone about us." Jason had decided to let everyone in the family know about him and Andrea.

Andrea had been with him for so long, and it was the time to finally make it official for her.

Heared what Jason said, Andrea felt nervous again. "I'm afraid the old Mr. Burns will not be happy about it. After all I...." said Andrea and pursed her lips.

"Heyy, don't worry too much." Jason clearly knew what Andrea was so worried about. "Just remember that I love you, and leave the rest to me." Jason said.

John couldn't hear what Jason was saying on the other end. But he knew it was probably just all those touchy feely things between a guy and a girl.

Jason really knew how to talk to a girl. No wonder Andrea worshiped him so much.

Too bad that it didn't matter how nice those love words sounded, it would never workout between them.

Jason's marriage was never up to him.

Andrea hung up the phone and turned around.

Looking at her wriggling off, John felt a burst of heat in his throat.
