After Being Cheating novel Chapter 21

Jerry had called and texted Sally in the last couple of days but to no avail, she remained silent to him.

Now Jerry had met Sally face-to-face, and now was his chance to finally figure out what was really going on between them lately.

He was going to ask her if she wanted to give up on him.

Behind Jerry's back, Sven looked at Jane, who was now just about to fall asleep. He thought that Jane was pitiful; he had just asked Jerry to come and pick her up. But Jerry ignored his sister in favor of his future wife.

Sven, pitying Janet, held her in his arms and walked towards the door.

When Sven was wondering how to open the door while at the same time holding Janet in his arms, it suddenly opened from the outside.

The door opened, and through it in came Daniel. He looked at the sleeping girl in Sven's arms, and asked: "Where is Sally?"

"I was just about to tell you. Jerry just picked her up. Jerry took care of his future wife and ignored his sister. Poor me... I now have to take Jane to my house and risk being chased and beaten up by my girlfriend." Sven shook his head and left the bar's private room with Jane in his arms.

Sven, when he was just about to lay Janet onto the backseat of his car, saw Daniel say goodbye to his girlfriend.

"Spark, please help me send Kate back."

Kate didn't understand, and asked, "Daniel, what about you?"

He pointed at Sven, who was not that far away from them, and replied: "I have something to do with him."

Kate nodded, "Okay. Good night." With this, she boldly raised herself on tiptoes and kissed Daniel's right cheek.

A strange expression appeared on Daniel's face, but it was too dark for the others to notice it clearly.

As the black Bentley left, Daniel walked up to Sven. Sven thought that Daniel just came up to say goodbye to him, and said: "Bye. I am going to take Jane to my place."

But Daniel instead got in the car, not saying a single word. He then moved Janet to the left and leaned her against the car's second back door.

"I'm going in the same direction. Please give me a lift." With these words, Daniel closed the car's door.

The Royal Mansion was in the eastern part of the city while Sven's apartment was in the south. Why was he saying he was going in the same direction?

Sven sat in the driver's seat, feeling uptight. He was a doctor with outstanding medical skills, as his father was, and now suddenly he was Daniel's personal driver?

"Daniel, could you sit next to me here in the front? Jane will feel uncomfortable and stiff if she sleeps like that." said Sven, as he fastened his seat-belt.

"No. That's fine."

... Sven was just worried that Jane would feel uncomfortable and get muscle cramps when she woke up. Daniel, of course, was fine, since he wasn't sleeping.

"It would be more comfortable for Jane to lie on the backseat alone."

"Please, drive now!" Daniel kicked the driver's seat.

Sven, who was bummed out, seemed to be suddenly aware of something when he saw in the rear view mirror that Jane was now sleeping pressed against Daniel's left shoulder.

As he parked his car in front of Daniel's villa at The Royal Mansion, Sven thoughts were now definitely confirmed.

After getting out of the car, Daniel wasn't in too much of a rush to enter the house. Instead, he gently lifted Janet in his arms, who was sound asleep, out of the car.

"Daniel, you can't take Jane to your home! Her father and mother will be furious if they see her like this!" Sven tried to stop him as he thought that Daniel was going to take Jane to her home.

But Daniel just turned round and briefly nodded, and then he entered his villa with Janet in his arms.

'Daniel's really going inside with her...'

Sven rubbed his eyes and took a better look at what was just happening. It was really true; Daniel entered his villa with Jane drunk in his arms.

'What was going on?

Daniel already had a girlfriend. Am I overthinking all of this? Does Daniel look at Jane only as a sister?' thought Sven.

He was about to call back Jerry and tell him what had just happened, but his phone was powered off...

And to top it off, when he tried calling Jerry again, his phone also ran out of battery and died.

So Sven drove away, because, after all, Daniel was the person he trusted most in the world, and so he trusted him that he knew best what he was doing.

In the villa.

Daniel took Janet back home without hesitations, but now he began to regret it, since he didn't know where he could let her sleep in the house. Should he let her sleep on the carpet? Or on the sofa?
