Chapter 861 I''m Married
The unexpected delectable scents woke J right up.
She looked at the bountiful breakfastid out on the table before her. All of her favorite foods were
there, including toast, eggs, bacon, and there was even a steak. Even all of her favorite fruits were
there!
It was her perfect breakfast. She guessed that Brandon must have arranged it for her that way.
J beamed. Her dearest husband was always so thoughtful. She snapped a few photos of the
gorgeous spread and sent them to Brandon. Then she began to eat, blissfully happy.
As soon as J had taken a bite of the bread however, her face shattered into a grimace. She spit
it out immediately. It was not regr white bread but vored with ginger, something she loathed.
Brandon knew this, and always made sure to never put ginger in her food when he cooked for her.
This must be some kind of ident, she thought. Then she cut into the steak only to notice that it
was seasoned with ck pepper.
J hated that even more than ginger!
Hadn''t Brandon arranged this breakfast?
J then looked at the bouquet of roses on the table. There was a ck card nestled amongst the
flowers.
J opened the card and saw the signature on it was Derek''s, but the message didn''t actually
indicate who it was for.
The hotel was full of the designers and models from the Iridescent Show. The waiter must have sent
over the meal to the wrong person.
J immediately stood up, trying to find the waiter.
But when she opened the door, she nearly bumped into Derek, who was standing right there.
"Where are you off to in such a hurry?" Derek held J and teased her. "Are you not satisfied with
the flowers and breakfast?"

Pointing at herself, J asked in astonishment, "Do you mean that the flowers and breakfast are
for me?"
Derek beamed at her, his smile beautiful and perfect. "Why so surprised? You don''t believe I will fall
in love with you? Don''t be so modest. You''re beautiful and unique, J. I fell in love with you at
first sight."
He was deadly seriously, approaching J with an intense passion in his eyes. "If you think I''m
being too rash, we can take our time. I''ll pursue you until you agree to go out with me."
J took a few steps back to keep Derek''s hands from touching her.
She held up her left hand, showing him her wedding ring. "I''m married. You can''t possibly think it''s
appropriate to pursue a married woman, can you?"
Derek was stunned silent. He leaned forward and stared at J''s ring.
After taking a few moments, Derek asked in an anguished tone, "When did you get married to
Draco? He never seemed to be married! Besides ... I always thought that Draco was gay."
"You misinterpreted me again. I didn''t say I was married to Mr. Wesley. He and I are just colleagues.
My husband is..."
Derek interrupted J before she could tell him about Brandon.
"Don''t bother lying to me! It''s obvious that you''re not married. You''re too young! I''d rather you''d told
me I was already in the friend zone than you making up this borate story just to try to avoid me!"
Dispiritedly, Derek said, "I really like you. If you don''t like me, just say it. Don''t make such ame
excuse as you being married."
J was helpless. "Well, I don''t like you. Please don''t give me anything anymore."
"That''s not possible. I''m Derek. This is who I am. You aren''t even giving me a chance to pursue
you!" Derek was clearly beyond frustrated.
Without waiting a second longer, J waved him away, and shut the door in his face.
By the time J had changed into her new clothes for the day and done her make-up, she was
relieved to discover him gone. She went down to Northcliffe''s CBD.
Because of the Iridescent Show, many brands had set up sh stores here to sell theirtest
products. J wanted to get something for Brandon. So, when she arrived, she headed straight to
one of the shops of men''s wear.
"Miss, what can I do for you?" The shop assistant had a friendly smile on her face.
"Do you have this tie in ck and white stripes?" J pointed at the tie in dark blue and ck
strips in the window. Brandon usually wore ck and silver suits, so the tie with two-colored stripes
was more suitable for him. Besides, his style was clean and simple, and the tie with ck and white
stripes was just right for his aesthetic tastes.
"Yes. Please wait a moment." The shop assistant found the tie that J was looking for, and
showed it to her. "Miss, you have very good taste. This is thetest style, and it''s very popr now.
This is thest one left in this color."
J ced her hand on the tie. The fabric felt soft and high-quality to her touch, and she was
about to buy it.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice from behind, "I will buy this tie."
J turned around and saw Derek again.
He strode into the shop and asked the shop assistant to pack up the tie for him.
