"Don't you think you're going too fast, it might scare her "
Jack ignored what Eric said and returned to work.
"We are already engaged, I think we are past the phrase of fast," he said.
Eric laughed, "Your really an asshole, tricking her into that fake engagement, meeting your parents and then now dinner "
"Who said it was fake she will agree very soon. I don't have any plan of letting her go again "
"Then please keep a low profile while with her, it's getting hard to shut the mouths of all those reporters. They have photos of you and her " said Eric.
"I can't promise you anything".
"Then take it slow don't try to stay over at her place again like last time"
"I only did that cause I was worried about her," he said.
"Jack, I know your hurt but don't use this kind and beautiful woman as a distraction for your pain. It will end up hurting you both, especially her " Eric advised.
"Am not using her for anything and I will not hurt her?" he said.
"Are you sure about that, think about it . You just ended your three-year-long relationship and immediately got into this fake relationship with her isn't that using her ?".
"That relationship lasted that long because she kept holding onto me, my heart had stopped thinking about her two years back," he said.
"Then explain to me about the ring, cause I know it was meant for her, not Tatiana "
"That ring was for Tatiana, it was never for anyone else ".
Eric stared, "What do you mean by that? You just met her that night so how could you have bought her ring ?".
"Who said it was my first time meeting her ?" he said.
"Huh, you're confusing me here. when did you meet Tatiana? " asked Eric.
Jack smiled but didn't answer.
Eric glared, "Your mother must have been happy when she saw her that morning. Am surprised she hasn't fixed a day for seeing her mother ".
Jack chuckled and Eric was froze
"Don't tell me it's the reason you're taking Tatiana out for dinner ?".
"Mom told me to ask her if we could set a day for it," he said.
Eric laughed, "Now you're in trouble dear friend, in case you forgot this marriage is all fake cause your so-called Fiancee doesn't even know who you are "
"Let me handle it you don't have to worry about it," he said.
"Am telling you this right now, better come clean before this thing gets out of hand "Eric warned.
