My boss’s breathing was uneven, clearly still angry. As he raised his foot, about to go beat Jack up some more, I grabbed his arm and shook my head.
My boss’s whole body grew even colder. “You still care about him?”
“No, he’s not worth it.” My tone was indifferent. I no longer wasted any emotions on Jack.
Hearing me say this, my boss’s icy aura eased somewhat.
Jack struggled to get up, looking much calmer.
I walked over to him. “I’m already married. Stop looking for me.”
“I don’t believe it. How could it be… How could it happen so quickly?!”
I saw him starting to get agitated again and hesitated, wondering if my next words would upset him further.
I held back, restraining myself.

I spoke softly, trying not to provoke him. Just explaining clearly would be enough. “I’m not lying to you. There’s no reason for me to. I really am
married.”
With that, I took out my phone and showed him a photo of our marriage certificate that I had taken earlier.
Jack’s eyes widened in disbelief. He snatched the phone from my hand, muttering in a daze: “How could it happen so fast?!”
To be honest, I thought it was pretty fast too.
