Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)
Chapter 362

Chapter 362 Shut Your Eyes

Caleb gave me a cautious look. I was aware that he had always thought of Leonard as his brother. So, he still took his side. However, I wouldn't achieve anything I saw Leonard in my current state.

"Don't tell Leonard about this, Caleb." Now that it had come to this, there was nothing else to be said. So, we might as well keep it from him.

At the very least, Amelia had a baby in her belly now. She wasn't a dummy, and she would definitely use her baby to manipulate Leonard.

Meanwhile, Leonard had paid off such a huge debt that his baby had become a bargaining chip of some sort. Naturally, he wouldn't give up on the baby that easily. If Mr. Harmon Senior didn't support him, he would lose his only support in the Harmon family. Caleb was probably going to say more, but I interrupted him, "Didn't you say that there are some issues with the design files? Did you bring a flash drive? I have a laptop here."

Caleb gave me the design files and chatted for a little before he left. Mearrabile, I lay down on the bed wearily before falling asleep. The sky had turned dark by the time I woke up. The dishes Jack brought over were put to the side.

It looked like Jack had sent these over because the food was contained in a grand hotel's food container. I looked at it and suddenly lost any appetite I had. It seemed like I didn't care for food every time I was done with the chemotherapy. I didn't feel a little energized until I forced myself to drink a carton of milk, Now that I was free and had no over the design files.

o, I turned on my laptop and went

There was nothing wrong with my design sketches from three years ago. Someone must've amended them during the construction. With that said, there were too many uncertainties after three years. So, I couldn't pinpoint what went wrong. I checked the time and thought it was probably 6:00 pm in my home country. So, I gave Emma a call,

"Have you been to the project site, Emma? I think there's been some adjustment to the details. Go ahead and ask Matthew if he knows the person in charge of the project back then. I didn't follow this project from the very beginning "Also, tomorrow is

"What are you doing?"

I was startled by an icy voice. I hurriedly wrapped up my conversation with Emina when I saw that it was Jack, staring at me coldly. I hung up the phone.

Jack walked over to the hospital bed and saw the takeout that was left untouched "Didn't you eat anything?"

"I-I don't have an appetite." I couldn't explain it, but I felt extremely diffident at that moment. Jack turned and left with a blank face. When he got back, he had a carton of milk in his hand.

"This isn't strawberry-flavored, but it will do. Drink it."

Immediately nodded and drank the milk before I looked at Jack diffidently. He walked over to my laptop and glanced at the screen. Then, he snapped it shal. "You shouldn't be concerned with Harmon Group's project."

I hurriedly nodded and said, "That's why I called Emma and asked her to follow up with it."

Jack snorted before he took a seat on the couch and stared at me until I finished the milk.

"Alright, go to sleep now." Jack rose to his feet. He walked over to the door and turned off the lights before he took a seat on the couch again,

It took my eyes more than ten seconds to adjust before I could get a slightly better look at the space in front of me I asked timidly. "It's so late now. Aren't you going back home? Are you going to sleep on the couch?" "Where else would I sleep?" Jack's tone was cold and alood. He was probably a little angry too. Either way, I was so startled that I didn't dare to ask him more questions

However, I couldn't shake the awkward feeling now that there was suddenly one more person in my ward. I glanced over from time to time.

I could almost make out Jack's face in the darkness. He was still as cold as he had always been, but he looked almost softer when his eyes were closed and moonlight shone on him.

When I glanced over the third time, Jack finally couldn't bear it and spoke Impatiently, "Shut your eyes and sleep. Otherwise, you're going to be sleeping on the couch."

I was fine with the proposal, but I could sense his icy stare. So, I tactfully lay down on my bed and fell asleep for real without knowing it,
