Tiffany hesitated upon receiving such a formal invitation. “This isn’t… a date, right?”
Jackson laughed helplessly. “Would you lose some skin if it were? I’m taking you to try something new. It’s settled then? I’ll call you when I’m done.”
Tiffany let out a curse after he had driven his car far away. It was sinful. They had already broken up, but this was no different from how things used to be between them. They slept together, drove out in his car, and… had dates?
She realized that the door was slightly ajar when she arrived home; Tanya must have opened the door for her in advance. She pushed the door open and caught the sharp scent of durian. “Wow, Tan. You bought durian?”
Tanya walked out of her bedroom. “No, Mrs. West brought it for you this morning. She’s brought a ton of other things too. Mostly food.”
Tiffany was used to Summer’s way of doing things. “Oh, got it. I’m going to change. I’ll be visiting Ari at the hospital. You coming?”
Eric’s house was completely out of the way from the hospital, but Tiffany agreed without hesitation. “Sure, I’ll drop you off then go to the hospital. Ari sure looked scary after her surgery. She’s most afraid of snakes. I’m sure that she’d stay perfectly still if I threw a snake at her. She was so weak that her breathing was extremely shallow. I hope she’s feeling better today.”
Tanya didn’t answer. She truly wasn’t interested in anything involving Arianne at the moment. A poverty-stricken girl like her couldn’t be bothered with concerning herself with a wealthy man’s wife such as her — this was her current state of mind.
Tanya waved at Tiffany when she arrived at Eric’s house. “Drive carefully; don’t be so clumsy all the time. Safety is important.”
