Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back!

"Mind getting some medicine for me?"

Joy, puzzled, asked, "If you're feeling under the weather, why not just hit up a clinic?"

Typical, cutting straight to the chase.

Austin replied, "How about you drive me to the clinic then?"

Joy muttered under her breath, thinking a small cough wasn't enough to hinder driving, and here was this grown man asking for a ride. But she kept those thoughts to herself. "Alright, fine."

"Give me a sec then," Austin said, grabbing his jacket and heading downstairs with her.

The guy who had dropped Joy off was still waiting downstairs. Leaning against his car, Austin watched as Joy went to essentially ditch him.

The guy glanced over at Austin from afar, offering a knowing smile. The boss, after all.

When Joy finished and looked back their way, Austin reminded her, "Your bag."

"Oh, right!" Joy smacked her forehead and went back to retrieve her bag left in the car.

As they got into the vehicle, Austin casually asked, "Boyfriend?"

Joy flipped her hair back, chin up with pride, "A suitor, hehe."

Great. He goes away for a short while, and she's got a new admirer.

Austin crossed his arms, "Where'd you meet?"

"At a bar a few days ago," Joy boasted, "He was smitten at first sight, launched a full-on charm offensive. Flowers every day. I mean, can you blame him? I'm irresistible." "And what about me?"

"What about you?" Joy was clueless.

"You're flirting with me while dining out with your admirer. Am I just another fish in your pond?"

At a red light, the car ahead braked sharply. Joy, a tad slow to react, nearly rear-ended them.

Jolted forward, hands gripping the steering wheel, she fell silent for a moment before carefully turning to ask Austin, "Are we... flirting?"

When did that start without her knowing?

Austin was beside himself, "Why the surprise? You kissed me, remember?"

"I thought it was just a casual peck..." Joy trailed off under his intense gaze, sheepishly scratching behind her ear.

"Do you often just 'casually peck'

people?" Austin felt like he was

indeed a fish caught on a hook "is

swnov

kissing men just a trivial thing t you?"

Joy rushed to clarify, "I'm not that kind of girl!"

Austin expressed his doubt.

Joy wanted to explain further but then regained her confidence, "What right do you have to doubt me? should be doubting you. Who knows if you go around kissing any girl you see."

"Do I look that easy?"

Joy confirmed, "Yep."

"

Austin gritted his teeth, then smiled, "Okay, then."

As Joy was about to turn left towards the nearby clinic, he instructed from the passenger seat, "Keep straight. Forget the clinic."All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"You're coughing and not getting it checked?"

Austin turned to her, "You're usually

so good at figuring things out, what's stopping you now? It was all an act, a ploy to keep you from dining with your admirer. Couldn't yout tell?"

Joy felt her heart skip erratically, driving straight past the intersection and asking where to now.

Austin said, "Your place."

"My place?" Joy stammered, "Isn't this moving a bit fast? Is this how you do things?"

"We've got to install that lamp I bought you," Austin chuckled, "Where did your mind go?"

"...Okay then." Joy thought before clearing her throat awkwardly, "Went straight to pornhub." Austin was speechless.
