Contract Marriage With The Ruthless Billionaire のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

(Jack’s Pov)I was so happy that Lily called, if not I would have still been there in that Bar discussing my personal live with Pat. He used to be my best friend then in school, apart from him having a high taste when it comes to food, a lot seem to have changed with him. Trying to talk about my life is one of the reasons I don’t let anyone feel too comfortable around me to discuss.I was happy seeing Pat and was a bit relieved when I saw him because I thought maybe since I don’t have any friend at all, we might go back to being as close as we used to be in school then but I didn’t want that anymore. I dislike men who talk a lot and who always wants to know about my personal life at any slightest opportunity they get, makes me feels like I’m being set up.As much as I was happy that Lily’s call saved me from the unfriendly environment with Pat, I wasn’t so sure if I wanted to know why she was calling me, I ended her call after it rang for a while before bidding Pat goodbye.I flagged

(Jane’s Pov)After I asked Jack to go home, I walked into the Doctor’s office to know what kind of surgery he wanted to perform on Lily.“I already told her husband”“who is my brother” I interrupted him“she needs an urgent surgery to get rid of the coagulated blood in her womb which might lead to her inability to take in in future and is also harmful to her body system” he said looking at me eyeball to eyeball.“that’s a though one” I whispered to myself“yes, it is”I stood up and left his office and went back to the room where Lily was staying. By the time I got to her, she was already awake but unable to sit properly.“Jane” she shouted my name as hot tears rolled down her cheeks“I’m here now” I said giving her a warm hug. Her hands were so tight around my waist, her state was testing every iota of my determination to make sure she suffers while with Jack but I’ve made up my mind and that’s final.“don’t worry you’ll be fine” I consoled her“will I die?”“no don’t say that you w

(Lily’s POV)“I’m really sorry that I wasn’t here when you woke up earlier” Jane apologized as she ran towards my bed.The aroma that came from the bag she was carrying made me wonder what was in the bag she had come with, obviously it was my food but I wondered which food it was.Jane walked towards me and as she gently massaged my forehead, Jane looked at me with a pity face and at same time signaled to me that she was sorry for not being around me. I knew at once how sorry she was for not being there when I woke up.“come on Jane, it is okay, you’re here now” I said placing my palm over hers on my forehead.“The doctor said I can only take soft foods for now” I murmured looking at Jane“yes, and it’s for your own good. You will start eating whatever you want when you start recuperating” Jane said to me“it’s not really going to be easy for me” I said frowning“I’m sorry about that but you just have to manage until we go home, by then you must have been strong enough. Let’s see what

(Jane’s Pov)It has been complete two weeks in the hospital with Lily, even though I went out once in a while to get food and other things that she would be needing, like her clothes. Lily was already strong enough to walk but the doctor said I should make sure she doesn’t stress herself much in the house.On that Friday when it was time to take Lily home, I had gone home to change the Maserati car to our black SUV because I got tired of it. I’ve been driving in it for quite a long time now and it was time to change into a new baby.Our bags were fully packed and I made all the necessary payment to the hospital, since Jack sent me a whooping sum of money. Something in me just tells me he sent me that money because of Lily, Jack never sent me that amount of money before unless when I give him good reason why he should. Whether he’s beginning to have feelings for her or not, that’s not my concern for now, the good thing is that I got money out of it.I took our belonging into the car, h

(Jack’s Pov)I arrived home very angry and frustrated about what happened in the company, I just rushing to get into my room so I can be able to think about the next move that I would make and how to face the press the next day concerning the interrogatory session.“welcome Jack” it was Lily. They were already back from the hospital before I got home but I wasn’t in a very good mood to talk to anyone so I ignored the two women and raced upstairs to my room.“Jack Jack” Jane yelled at me but I was already in my room.I got to my room, took off my garments and breezed into the bathroom for a shower. I dipped myself in the bathtub and thought deeply about how to handle the press the following day.It’s so alarming how people can be so ungrateful, the ZEDE company has been a pain in the ass for my company but despite its flaws of not reaching the standards of the companies we partnered with, we still helped her reach her target and made her visible in the competitive market place.
