Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 83 I’ll Take Care Of You From Now On

"Yeah. As you refuse to go to the hospital, I have no choice but to ask the doctor to come over here. Your fever was at 40 degrees. You might die if it was any higher." He said as he sat down on the side of the bed and lifted the bowl in his hand, "You haven't eaten anything today. The doctor said you could only have some light food. Have some porridge."

"Thank you. I can eat it by myself."

"No. I'll feed you since you are still on a drip." He said as he lifted a spoon of rice porridge to her mouth.

Although she really wanted to refuse him, she didn't have any strength so she opened her mouth at last.

"Jean, I'll take care of you from now on." Ethan said as he looked at her with concern and tenderness in his eyes.

She hadn't never imagined that Ethan would appear in her life again and that the man who used to be cynical would take good care of her with tenderness and consideration now.

She recalled the past in her mind.

She didn't want to discuss these issues with Ethan so she avoided mentioning it.

"I'm full now." She looked up to the drip bottle and said, "It's finished."

Ethan put down the bowl and removed the needle from her hand carefully.

"Ethan, I'm much better now. Thank you for what you've done today. Go home now and have some rest." She lowered her head and didn't looked at him.

He dazed for a while and didn't saying anything either. They both kept silent for some time. Minutes passed quickly.

"Jean, you really have changed." After a while, he said these words. The look on his face was very sad. She had never seen him like this.

She started to feel terrible. Maybe it was because he didn't cherish her when she was in love with him.

Jean took a deep breath and said slowly, "I don't know what's wrong with me either. Perhaps I have changed for real. I don't know since when I've become like this. Anyway, Ethan, could you please give me some time to myself?"

She remembered what happened yesterday. She thought she could forget about it after a sleep but what happened yesterday was nailed to her heart. Whenever she thought about it, her heart hurt.

"Remember to take the pills. I will come over and check on you tomorrow."

He picked up the bowl and left the room. Around ten minutes later, she heard the sound of the door closed

Jean got off the bed, still in her pajamas, and walked to the living room. There's nobody there anymore. The kitchen was cleaned up and the porridge in the pot was still steaming.

She paused. Since when did Ethan change so much?

Not only did he make porridge, he even cleaned up the kitchen.

If they hadn't broken up, this probably wouldn't be so complicated.

But now, another person had resided in her heart. She knew she should not fall for him. But she just couldn't help to.

She stood on the balcony. A breeze blew off the heat on her face. The sky in the distance was red at dusk. It looked very much like a painting, lively and artistic.

She stood there for a long time until the sun set and the sky darkened gradually. She returned to the living room.

Why was she upset? She had been liberated. She had no relationship with the Wens, who used to treat her like an outsider. And she didn't have to go to Zed's home anymore and force herself to please him everyday. Although they hadn't divorced yet, it was almost time. Jean, you were one step closer to the life that you dreamed of. Don't go back!

She had completely provoked Zed, and there was no favorable turn. It wouldn't be long before they divorced.

Next morning, she suddenly remembered the problem with the photographs. Sonny would be back today but she had yet to solve the issue. She had no desire to rest at home so she went directly to the company.

It was exceptionally different from the usual today. There wouldn't be anybody at the company half an hour before working hours. She came an hour early but most of her colleagues were already there. Maranda came in with two steamed stuffed buns. Seeing Jean was back, she became delighted at once.

"Jean, you finally come back." She ran towards her and smiled with happiness, "When you were not here, I missed you so much."

"I was not here for just one day and you started to miss me? I don't believe you!"

"I did miss you. If I hadn't known that you called in sick, I would have called to disturb you." She pouted and then stuffed a bun into her mouth.

Jean threw her hands up, "I still don't believe you."

"You!" She glared at her angrily as she chewed hard, "I can't believe that you don't trust me. I ..."

"All right. Fine. I believe you." Seeing around, she pouted her lips and asked, "Don't you think something strange is going on? Wait. Why are you here so early too?"

She ate up a bun and burped, "You didn't know? Our company received a big project. It's going to be hectic soon so we decided to start early. And I finally saw our boss yesterday!" "Boss?" Jean startled, "You saw our boss?"

"Yes. What's wrong?"

"The Boss is back?"

"Yeah. He came back yesterday."

Jean dazed for a few seconds. Sonny came back yesterday? Why hadn't John told her about that? Sonny must have known the problem with the photographs?

The thought of it made her anxious.

Maranda kept talking about her meeting with the boss but Jean couldn't process a thing.

When John arrived at the company, he saw Jean was staring at the computer. He walked towards her spot and tapped the table, "Aren't you sick? Why are you here today?"

She gathered herself and looked up. Seeing John, she got out of her chair immediately and asked anxiously, "Sonny came back yesterday?" "Yes."

"So he knew about..."

"Yes."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"I'm doomed."

Jean walked around. Her anxiety had driven her mad.

He had never seen her troubled like this. It's adorable somehow. He smiled and said, "Sonny knew about the problem but you don't need to worry about it. Sonny said that he will solve it."

"He will solve it?" Jean was even more upset. It had only been a month since she joined the company and she already got Sonny such a big trouble.

She rather die now than face Sonny later.

"Are you better now?" John asked with concern.

"Much better."

She sat down disappointed with herself, both hands cupping her cheeks with despair all over her face.

John was going to explain that Sonny wasn't angry and had known the cause of the problem. As soon as he saw her depressed face, he found it so funny. He didn't explain it to her and turned around to his own spot.

Jean was lost in her thoughts the whole morning. Ethan called in the morning and asked for her whereabouts. She told him that she was at the company. In return, he advised her to eat well and take her pills before he hung up. She wasn't in the mood for anything. 0000000000000000
