The Convenient Marriage - Chapter 4

Jade woke up to the noise outside, she was so tired last night that she didn’t know when morning came,it was already 10:00 a.m.

She opened her curtain to view what the noise was all about and as the sun shone on her face she looked so fragile and beautiful, her golden hair falling backwards exposing her straight face and those pink lips one would die to kiss,she inherited her huge sea green eyes from her dad while some of her looks came from her mum.

Gazing outside to check the cause of the noise jade saw her mum bringing out groceries from the back of her car,looking up her mum shouted “jade dear come help me out with these,I didn’t know you are already awake”.jade just nodded and rushed downstairs before asking her mum about their housekeeper as she collected the remaining stuffs from the back of the car,”mum what about Mrs violet the housekeeper I thought she’s the one to buy the groceries since you’d be busy at work today”before her mum replied jade chipped in “now wait a minute mum” staring at her mum she finished ” you are supposed to be at work now, why are you home?” keeping quiet the whole time while jade talked her mum just smiled and said “you’d be surprise your dad’s also home” walking past jade she added “stop staring at me like that dear, I’ll make us some coffee while I brief you” taking in air she said “its not like its a very bad thing you know, but your dad would discuss it with you later, cheer up girl your face has gone so pale” laughing at her daughter Mrs Douglas walked inside the house leaving jade behind.
