When she smiled, her eyes sparkled bright, at this ti, she especially resembled a little fox.
Because of this smile, Jas Black’s voice involuntarily softened a lot, "Aren’t you very good at blacklisting people? For soone you don’t want to deal with, why not put them on the blacklist?"
Hearing Jas Black’s words, Jane Sampton’s first reaction was, blacklist? Could this guy be planning to settle scores after the fact?
The first ti she blacklisted him was deliberate, the second ti, accidental.
If he were to calculate everything, wouldn’t he be too petty?
Seeing that Jane Sampton did not speak, Jas Black did not inquire further, naturally unaware of what Jane Sampton was muttering about him under her breath.
However, Jane Sampton’s mobile phone, which had been silent for only a few seconds, rang again—this ti from Mother Sampton.
Jas Black noticed Jane Sampton’s expression, which seed to say, I just knew it would be like this; he imdiately understood why Julie Sampton had not yet been blacklisted on Jane Sampton’s mobile phone.
Because of Mother Sampton.
"Shall I answer it?" Jas Black asked.
Jane Sampton nodded repeatedly, she couldn’t wait for him to do so.
She could reprimand Julie Sampton harshly and without any disguise mock and ridicule her, but Mother was not Julie, what she dared to do to her sister, she didn’t dare to do to her mother.
Jas Black took Jane Sampton’s mobile phone and slid to answer the call. He hadn’t spoken yet when he heard what sounded like questioning and accusatory words coming from Mother Sampton.
"Jane, why did you just hang up on your sister? She had sothing to discuss with you. Isn’t hanging up on soone a bit impolite? You’re all family, she’s the sister, you’re the older one, and she’s been through a lot when she was younger. So, Jane, could you please be a little more considerate to her? Hanging up on her, do you know how much it upset her? She wants to reconcile with you."
Jas Black glanced at Jane Sampton across from him, who was smiling as she quietly muttered words nearly identical to Mother Sampton’s. He pointed at Jane’s barely touched al; after seeing Jane pout at him, she lowered her head to eat. Only then did he return his focus to the phone conversation.
When he spoke, there was not even a salutation.
"Didn’t Julie Sampton tell you that the one who hung up on her was ?" Jas Black asked in return, his voice as usual chillingly aloof to the point of being almost devoid of warmth.
Mother Sampton was jolted by his tone; it took her a few seconds to stamr out, "Is this Jas Black?"
"Yes," said Jas Black, "I have already told Julie Sampton if she has business with Jane, then she should co over to our ho and talk face to face. I hope you all rember, Jane is now Jas Black’s wife, Mrs. Black. She is no longer just the Sampton Family’s daughter. None of you from the Sampton Family have any right to direct her to do anything. Understood?"
In Jas Black’s dictionary, the word ’wife’ implied ownership; his wife was his alone. So, in effect, Jane Sampton was wholly his.
He was responsible for Jane Sampton’s safety as well as for her living needs.
That was his duty as a husband.
And as the owner of this right, he naturally would not allow anyone to overstep and do as they please.
"I only hoped for harmony between the sisters; I haven’t directed her to do anything..." Mother Sampton’s face had turned sowhat pale. Compared to the discomfort she felt during the dayti upon hearing what her husband had said, it was this emotionless threat from Jas Black that made her feel more embarrassed, even having a hint of fear towards the Black Family, towards Jas Black himself.
