82. Act like a Spoiled Child, Act Shamelessly, Keep Pestering Jessie was terrified because she assumed he would return. Her anxiety and wrath were visible in her red and puffy eyes.
“I'm not going to touch you.” Alex felt even more ashamed in his heart after seeing how terrified she was. His tone softened as well. “You've been gravely hurt. If | don’t offer you medicine, you won't be able to recuperate.” Jessie didn’t trust him and remained still.
Alex cover and placed the pills on the coffee table. He carefully placed her on the sofa after lifting her horizontally.
When Jessie was already lying flat on the sofa, she didn’t even have tto respond.
Alex squatted in front of the sofa, his long legs bent. He reached out and yanked her pants off.
Jessie was uninterested in listening and pulled his large hands away. She stated categorically, “Get out of here.
I'll take care of it myself!” “Be docile; it is not in your best interests.” Alex smirked. He yanked her hand away and yanked her pants off with force.
Jessie's face was bright crimson. She had no chance against him. She drew the pillow over her face and buried her face in it the moment he removed it.
Alex's breathing had becheavy.
He exerted a lot of willpower to apply the medicine to it carefully.
“Ah,” Jessie took a deep breath to relieve the ache as soon as he touched it. Her fingertips sunk into the soft pillow.
Alex looked at her and felt both heartache and anger. “It hurts so much that you can forget about it! Didn't you seek death for him before? You can’t stand the pain now?” Jessie now realized why he had suddenly becso irrational. “Who did | wish death for?” she raged as she tossed the pillow away.
“Who did you hear that from?” she said before waiting for his response.
How could Alex believe anything he'd heard? Regardless of how overblown Mike's statements were at the time, there was one fact that could never be changed. That was because Jessie had previously cared about him and had even married him for five years.
This relationship had been a thorn in his side for a long time. He couldn't help but be irritated by this.
Especially when she was glued to the television, starring at Mike. He had shattered both of their hearts in that split second.
Jessie didn’t say anything as she stared at his sad expression. She felt aggrieved because there was nothing she didn’t understand in her heart. “If you don’t want to be bothered, don’t look for me.” She wanted to take her legs back after saying that.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Do not move!” Alex sat back down on the sofa and continued to apply the medicine softly.
She assumed he would go out of his way to find her since he adored her.
Jessie saw a deep bite mark on his right palm. A few teeth holes were even bleeding.
That was what she had bitten just now.
She watched as he applied medicine to her despite the wound on her hand. Despite her irritation, she remained motionless.
She did feel considerably better once the cold medicine was applied to her. Even the pain was no longer obvious.
To make him apply the medicine like this, she was extremely embarrassed. There were several times when she tried to reach out to stop him, but he waved her away. Later, she simply took a pillow to cover her face and no longer spoke to him.
His wristwatch would periodically brush up against her bare long legs.
The steel watch was cold.
She couldn't help but shiver when it touched her legs.
Alex removed his watch and tossed it to the side before continuing to apply medicine to her.
This position appeared to be a fantastic opportunity. It was, nevertheless, a terrible and torturous experience for him.
All of the red and swollen sores were smeared on the spot. However, he had a serious collapse as well. The sweat had soaked the back of his white shirt, which clung to his broad back.
He stretched out to take her up, wrapping her in a thin blanket. He entered the room and positioned her on the bed.
He returned to the bathroom for another shower.
In the bedroom closet, there were just two sets of his clothes. All of them had been changed b y him.
“I'll go to the company. Later, I'll send Housekeeper Bart from the Mountain and River Residence to you.” He put on a black suit jacket over his brand new white shirt and used his long fingers to take a dark blue tie from the cupboard.
Jessie's heart was still filled with hatred and peace in response to his prior beastly acts. She didn’t want to talk to him at first, but when she heard him say that, she instantly stopped him and exclaimed, “No need!” Her current unpleasant appearance was already a source of embarrassment. He had intended to send someone to keep an eye on her. Did he intend for her to die? Alex had already tucked his tie into his shirt and was about to place his watch on his wrist.” What is it?” he asked, his face expressionless.
He was well-versed in the use of a wristwatch. His slim, beautiful fingers were a limited edition minimalist timepiece. Wearing a watch on a daily basis gave him a macho appearance.
Jessie was reminded of his ferocious gaze just now. She hid her face behind her hand and remained silent.
Alex stepped over to the bedside, his watch on his wrist. He intended to apologize, but he didn’t say it out loud in the end.
The man’s steady footsteps faded away as he walked out the door.
In the evening, Alex returned to St. Jin’s Garden.
Jessie had already left. The medicine he bought for her had been taken away. The balcony outside the living room was drying the clothes that he had changed into.
Under the warm golden sun, the white shirt fluttered in the wind.
A strange warmth rose in his heart. He picked up his phone and dialed Jessie's number.
Just as it rang, it was cut off by her.
He frowned and dialed again.
It was cut off again.
She hadn't even entered the house yet, and she wanted to cut ties with him again? This woman was becoming more and more undisciplined! He threw away his phone and went to the balcony to light a cigarette. He couldn’t help but narrow his eyes again and stare at the shirt that was fluttering in the wind for a long time.
Even after Jessie had taken care of the child for a few days, she hadn't met Alex again.
After school, Jessie brought the children back to St. Jin’s Garden to cook for them. She also accompanied them to do homework and watch cartoons together. Fia felt that these days were too happy.
When she was going to send them back to Mountain and River Residence at night, the little guy was very unwilling. They repeated a question every day, “Mommy, aren't you going hwith us?” “Mommy, | want to sleep with you tonight.” “Mommy, can you stay within Mountain and River Residence?” After so many times, Jessie's heart would sometimes soften so much that she almost went back with them.
But in the end, she still steeled her heart and turned around to leave.
She walked very far, and when she looked back, she could still see the two little fellows standing at the entrance.
They looked at her without moving. Her heart couldn't help but feel sour and painful.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt just so happened that a certain hateful man with a volatile and violent temper insisted that they return to Mountain and River Residence no matter how late it was. Otherwise, he would not allow them to meet Jessie again.
Jessie really hated it so much that her teeth itched, but there was nothing she could do about i t. He was the one who brought them up, and the material conditions he created for the children were far beyond what she would be able to achieve in this lifetime. When she thought of this, she had no choice but to suppress her sadness and leave with teary eyes.
Only after sending Jessie away did Fia and Felix enter the courtyard listlessly.
Housekeeper Bart and Nanny Lisa, who were already waiting in the garden, quickly walked out. They took their small schoolbags and each led one into the house.
On the balcony on the second floor of the villa, Alex was holding his pockets with both hands. He narrowed his eyes and waited for the slender figure to disappear completely. He still stood there for a long time. After that, he turned around and returned to his room.
Jessie started to look for the shop. After she said she would rent a house that day, she thought about it for the whole night. In the end, she decided to open the shop and find a shop with an attic. This way, she wouldn't need to rent another house.’ Alex's St. Jin’s Garden house charged her ten thousand. One month was fine, but if she wanted to rent it continuously, she wouldn't be able to bear it.
She had been looking for a house for two days and had nothing to do with it. When she was about to return to St.
Jin’s Garden in the afternoon, she received a phone call.
“Hello, little girl!” Jessie did not recognize who it was at all. She politely asked, “Hello, who is it?” “Don’t remember me? Airport, bathroom, clothes, do you remember?” Jessie suddenly remembered what Alex said. That day, that person was his mother.
Suddenly, her entire body tensed up. It was as if she had seen her teacher in class when she was young. She stood straight and stiff. “Hello, Auntie!” “You remember?” Grandma Restall’s smiling voice was filled with harmony.
“Yes.” Jessie was afraid that she already knew who she was. She was too nervous and did not know what to say for a moment.
“Do you have tnow? Let's change clothes today!” She said, but only after she finished asking. She rushed to say, “Sendyour current address. | cto find you.” “Now?” However, hearing that she only wanted to exchange clothes, she probably didn’t know. Jessie thought of Alex's recent attitude. Perhaps he already felt that there was no need to explain it to his mother. Thinking like this, she actually could not tell whether she was feeling relieved or sad.
“Are you busy?” “No, I'm not busy. How about this, you tellyour address. Shall we meet at the coffee shop nearby?” “Sure!” Grandma Restall hung up the phone and made a happy gesture to Grandpa Rudolf, who was driving next to her.
She smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into a line. “Done. Now we just need to trick Alex into going home!” Grandpa Rudolf snorted coldly. “You really worry too much. Alex has a girlfriend. What kind o f blind date are you giving him now? Aren't you messing around!?” “Just be my driver. Don’t talk so much. You're getting more and more long-winded as you age! “Grandma Restall did not want to use the driver at home. That was why she deliberately played chess with Grandpa Rudolf. Just based on the tshe acted spoiled, cheated, and pestered him, Finally, she had won three rounds against him in a row. How could Grandpa Rudolf argue with her? He could only be willing to bet and admit defeat to be her exclusive driver.
Alex said he had a girlfriend. But until now, she had never seen that girl.
VAT Before that, she still had the right to choose the type of daughter-in-law she liked! Not to mention, She liked that little girl at the airport no matter how she looked at it.
“Lettell you, | won't get out of the car later!” “Don’t worry, I'll go by myself. | promise | won't drag you into the water. Let's go, quickly drive to the nearest coffee shop!” Grandma Restall smiled frankly and urged him to drive.
Grandpa Rudolf cast a sidelong glance at her. He felt that her words were very untrustworthy.
Jessie went to Sally’s house to get Grandma Restall’s clothes.
The last tshe had sent them to the dry cleaning shop to wash them, she had kept them there.
“Old Madam of Laurent family asked you to go and exchange clothes?” Sally was lazing on the sofa and doing s. She saw Jessie leave after picking up her clothes and immediately jumped up from the sofa. She ran over barefooted to pull her, “Are you going to dress like this to see her?” “What's wrong?” “How can you be so hasty when you see your future mother-in-law? Let's go, let's go into the room and pick out clothes!” Sally pushed her into the bedroom.
