Clarabelle was feeling up and down. But she had to stay calm and looked strong in front of her father. She didn't want her father's health to improve instead of getting better if she got bad news.Clarabelle stood, right beside Adriano and held his hand. "Jordan is on business, Pa. He'll be here when he's done. I didn't want to bother him. Please, just take a rest.""Alright, darling. As long as you guys are okay, I've calmed down." Adriano's thin smile tugged at his lips. Then he closed his eyes. He needed a lot of rest. He had to fight to stay healthy, for Clarabelle's sake. His daughter had been trying to make Adriano's dream come true, she got married, and had a partner in her life. He had to do the same, too, because he wanted to be able to see his daughter longer, if possible until Clarabelle and Jordan had children.Clarabelle was relieved, Adriano didn't ask any further. She sat back in her chair. Inwardly she felt guilty for having to keep to herself the frenzy because of Jor
Crystal was very upset with Jordan, to hear that her grandson was not by his wife's side during this difficult time. Crystal could already guess what Jordan was doing outside the house. If all that time Crystal seemed to be Jordan's fortress in front of his father and mother, this time Crystal would make a deal with him seriously. Jordan was married. He was a husband, the head of the household. He shouldn't only care about himself. Even though Clarabelle was covering up, Crystal knew, Jordan was starting to go crazy again. Just half an hour after calling Clarabelle, Crystal left for the hospital where Adriano was being treated. And on the way she contacted Jordan. "Hello, who is this? You are just been bothering me this early, you know." Jordan's voice was hoarse. He seemed lazy to take the call. Crystal became sure what she thought was right. Jordan was in his apartment, with one of the women he used to spend the night with. "You can still relax like that while your wife has to st
Crystal's usually friendly and cheerful eyes stared at Jordan with anger. Crystal asked Jordan to explain why he didn't come home, leaving Clarabelle alone to take care of her father in the hospital. The conversation widened, on what the purpose Jordan married Clarabelle actually for. It was what Crystal wanted to hear from Jordan's mouth."Granny ..." Jordan held his grandmother's shoulders, watching with eyes trying to stay calm. Jordan loved Crystal very much and he didn't want his grandmother to be sad.“Of course, as I said, I wanted to start a good life, having the right one beside me,” Jordan said with all his heart, so Crystal wouldn't think so much about him."But why haven't you come into the office and worked with James yet?" Crystal's gaze had not softened.Jordan was silent. What did Crystal mean this time? Jordan had to be busy at the office. Meetings, checking this and that it made his head full and want to burst! More, if there were such troubled employees, ah ... it w
Clarabelle and Jordan turned to Susan. Clarabelle stood up and walked over to Susan."Thanks for coming," Clarabelle said."How's your daddy?" asked Susan. Her eyes glanced at Jordan. The man was indeed very handsome. Even in his perfunctory costume, just a little tight t-shirt and jeans, he looked cool."He's gotten a little better. Papa is still sleeping," Clarabelle replied.Clarabelle turned to Jordan. "Jordan..."Jordan raised his head and stood up. "Okay. I'll go home. If you need anything just let me know. Okay?"Jordan stepped over to Clarabelle. He grabbed Clarabelle's shoulder, then kissed the beautiful woman's lips and walked away.“You are lucky to have such a good husband. The crazy rich, but willing to accept you as you are. What are you dreaming of, La?” Susan watched Jordan keep walking without looking back.Clarabelle smiled faintly. Susan's words filled Clarabelle's heart with gratitude. Her choice to follow the reality show at that time was not wrong. In the tough s
As promised, Jordan came to meet Jaren at the company headquarters. Jaren was quite relieved to see that his youngest son actually fulfilled his promise. Of course, he didn't just give Jordan a job. He explained all things related to the company.Jordan wasn't completely blind to the company. It was just that all the time he didn't really want to know. For several days Jaren asked one of his assistants to accompany Jordan around the company and introduce him to the company. Jordan was forced not to be able to accompany Clarabelle much in the hospital, let alone go to the club. But he tried to show he was serious about his intentions to work."I don't think he's kidding this time, Jay. I'm relieved, Jordan wants to change. And because of that woman. Lala? If she really has the willingness to make Jordan want to care about his life, I will be open to accepting her." Ann-Mary spoke to Jaren that afternoon. Jordan was at the production site with assistant Jaren.Jaren looked at Ann-Mary.
Clarabelle invited Crystal and James to have dinner together. The three of them, without Adriano. The dinner meal was simple but quite enjoyable. Clarabelle was pretty good at cooking. As before, Crystal told a lot of things, making the atmosphere among them not stiff. And James, occasionally looked at Clarabelle, making her a little uncomfortable.“You should come to visit me often, Lala. I want to cook with you. You're ready, right?" Crystal spoke with a beaming face, looking at Clarabelle who was smiling at her."Sure, Granny. As long as Papa is healthy, I will come to see Granny," said Clarabelle.James barely spoke. Only occasionally looked at Crystal and Clarabelle who chatted happily. Clarabelle thought James was very different from Jordan, who was friendly and gentle. James looked cold and very indifferent. Clarabelle wasn't too bothered by it, though Clarabelle knew James didn't like it.“Before I go home, I have to say goodbye to Adriano. It's not good if I don't meet right
“Are you sure, you wanna see Granny today?” Jordan noticed Clarabelle standing in front of the large mirror on her dressing table. Clarabelle combed her long, beautiful, and shiny hair.From the mirror, Clarabelle looked at Jordan who was standing not far from the bed tidying the tie he was wearing."Yes, I have promised. If Papa is healthy, I will visit Granny at least once a week. Papa doesn't mind, Jordan." Clarabelle put the comb back in its place, then turned to look at Jordan."Okay, as long as Papa is okay, I'm up to you." Jordan smiled, grabbed the coat slung over the edge of the bed, and put it on.Clarabelle continued to stare at him. Handsome, dashing, kind, patient, and understanding. Jordan Gerald Hayden's complete package for Clarabelle. It was been almost four months since their marriage, and Clarabelle was even more excited to be Jordan's wife."Why are you looking at me that way?" Jordan unbuttoned his coat, looked at Clarabelle, took three steps, and grabbed Clarabel
Clarabelle didn't want to move and leave. She wanted to know more about Jordan. She didn't know who James was talking to, what was clear was that his words made Clarabelle's heart flutter.“To be honest, when I saw your brother appear on the reality show, I thought he was being hired to increase the viewership ratings. So, he's indeed married?" The voice of the man who was with James sounded louder.“I still don't know what his motive was for doing that ridiculous wedding. His friends are equal, no one has opened their mouth yet when I tried to ask. They must know something." James sounded annoyed.“Then, how is Jordan's work? Is he serious about working?” The man who was with James lowered his voice slightly."Huh, are you serious? Everything has to be tidied up again by the assistant.” James' voice rose again. “Jordan doesn't know how to work. His mind was still playing. His brain was already heavy when forced to think about something serious. I don't know why my daddy is so patient
