My Wife is a Sassy Queen

“Lil, I am going to enjoy it,” Mariana shouted.

“Me too!” exclaimed Jenn.

“Jenn, don’t use your own devices. You suck at anything electronic not medically related. They will find you within minutes. Use Mer’s alternate phone.” Lil explained.

“Mer, you know what to hold and what to release, right?” Lil asked, vaguely.

“I know. I know. It’s like the 10th time you have said it since morning. I will just provoke her enough.” Mer replied, exasperated with the nagging.

“I have a professional team who could have done this without my nagging. Don’t give me that attitude, darling. You wanted to do it. Don’t screw up!” Lil snorted.

Henry giggled and Mariana glared at him but did not retort.

“You are so nice to Jenn, but fierce with Mer, why?” Jonathan moved to sit beside her and asked in a whisper.

“Personality differences. Jenn, despite the playfulness, is quite serious about anything she does. Mer just bulldozes through her work, hence the reminders. Not all mess can be cleaned up well. Also, Mer was born in our world. She knows how to play the game. Jenn is rather new, and since I was the one who liked her and brought her in, I ought to protect her.” Lil explained.

“What about me?” Jonathan asked out of the blue.

“What about you?” She cocked her head and asked innocently.

“Never mind!” He sighed. He did not have the courage to ask where he held up in her life.

“Nathan, I am sorry. I am too proud to explain things to you. When the time comes, you will know.” She said, sadly.

“Don’t be sad!” He said instinctively hiding his surprise at the address.

“It’s only fleeting. I am too occupied with other things to be sad all the time.” She explained.

“That’s even worse.” He said.

“That’s the price we have to pay for our privilege.” She countered.

“Why are you so wise?” He asked.

“My mother passed away when I was 8. I had to grow up quickly.” She seemed to have an answer to all the questions.

“I am sorry.” He said, “You simply acquiesced to being wise.” He added changing the subject.

“I have a high IQ and EQ. While I might not be wise, I am not too bad. Besides my mother, and my grandparents had spent quite an effort to get me to be a principled person.” She answered cockily, raising her chin in a dare.

Henry looked at the two of them whispering and he had to admit they made a decent couple.

Mer and Jenn were having the time of their lives leading Vivian into a trap.

He kept looking at his phone to check their progress.

Vincent had asked for James’s help in double-checking everything in the venue was right.

They came back when it was time, and soon the entourage proceeded to the main venue.From NôvelDrama.Org.
