Remarried Wife: She will Remarry, But Another Person-Chapter 180: When You Are Together...
At the crucial moment, Jasper Fitzgerald snapped back to reality, propped himself on the side of the bed with one hand, thus avoiding really pressing down on Sabrina Hayes and waking her up.
He let out a sigh of relief and quickly settled her back in place.
Sabrina’s sleeping expression was serene, it was obvious that she was deeply asleep, completely unaware of what she had just done.
Jasper felt helpless yet amused, could only tuck her in, then turn around and leave.
However, the brief touch from a moment ago seemed to linger on his neck.
The spot was somewhat itchy, and he couldn’t help but reach up to touch it, his jet-black eyes seemed to darken a few shades.
Jasper went straight back to the children’s room to continue playing with Zara.
The little cub’s mood changed quickly, and after confirming she was emotionally fine, Jasper took her to draw and pointed out some of her painting shortcomings.
The big one and the little one were immersed in it.
Time unknowingly slipped into the afternoon.
Sabrina slept deeply, not waking even by noon.
Jasper took Zara to have lunch.
Today’s lunch included braised prawns in oil, a dish the little cub usually liked the most.
However, the shrimp shells were a bit hard, and her small hands couldn’t peel them open. Jasper knew this and put on gloves to peel many for her, personally taking care of her.
Zara ate happily.
Nanny Warren originally wanted to help, but after watching the whole process, she realized there was no chance to intervene at all.
Because Jasper alone took great care of the child.
Wiping her mouth, serving dishes, helping the little cub wipe her hands.
Each action revealed thoughtfulness and gentleness.
This scene made Nanny Warren unable to help but sigh: Isn’t this what a father-daughter relationship should look like?
Mr. Fitzgerald’s presence seemed to fill the void in little Zara’s life.
...
Hawthorne Manor.
Jordan Hawthorne did not return all night, and it wasn’t until noon that he walked through the door.
Brooke Sinclairs, who had waited all night, immediately greeted him with concern, "Jordan, why are you only coming back now, and didn’t pick up the phone last night? Do you know how worried I was..."
If in the past, upon seeing her so concerned about him, Jordan Hawthorne would surely have been touched.
But now, for some reason, he couldn’t summon such feelings.
With a subtle expression, he replied, "Busy with work."
With that, he casually handed his coat to her.
Brooke could only catch the coat, her hand gripping the fabric tightly to hide her true feelings.
Jordan Hawthorne was lying to her!
He actually left the company early and even went to that silly kid’s kindergarten!
Saying he was busy with work was completely untrue!
She went to the company to find someone yesterday but didn’t see him at all!
The suit jacket faintly carried traces of alcohol.
Brooke Sinclairs clenched her teeth.
She suspected Jordan Hawthorne spent the whole night with that little brat Zara!
The alcohol smell on the clothes could have been from drinking with Sabrina Hayes!
After all, that’s a trick she used to use.
The thought of Jordan Hawthorne being drunk and possibly doing something with Sabrina Hayes made Brooke insanely jealous!
At first, he kicked Sabrina Hayes to the curb for her.
Why now is he frequently focusing attention on her?
Did he see her value at the summit meeting? Is that why his interest has started?
Brooke Sinclairs felt a little panicked, afraid that Jordan Hawthorne was paying attention to Sabrina Hayes, yet dared not show anything at all, could only continue pretending to be virtuous and asked concernedly, "Have you eaten? Shall I make you something?"
"Mm."
Jordan Hawthorne responded in a faint voice, then instructed, "And brew my medicine while you’re at it."
Yesterday, after leaving Zara’s school, Jordan Hawthorne had a fire burning in his heart.
He intended to come back but, for some reason, once he thought of Sonny being at home, Sabrina’s accusations pricked him like needles, frustrating him.
He didn’t want to come back to deal with Brooke and her son, so he simply went to another private residence.
In the meantime, he drank some alcohol and unexpectedly slept through to today.
Upon waking up, he returned to the manor.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, he felt a tingling sensation in his legs again.
Lately, the episodes have become more frequent.
Probably due to being too busy and not receiving proper acupuncture, leading to this.
The medicine’s effect was becoming less reliable!
Brooke Sinclairs watched him furrow his brow, then made a nervous and concerned face, asking, "Jordan, are your legs uncomfortable again?"
"Mm."
Jordan nodded.
Brooke Sinclairs was worried and immediately said, "Then let me massage them a bit to relieve the discomfort."
Speaking, she squatted down and began to rub his leg.
Jordan Hawthorne didn’t refuse her kindness.
But Brooke’s technique was far from professional.
She didn’t know the pressure points at all, just randomly pressing around, making the discomfort in his legs not only not relieved but even more unbearable.
He held back for a while, but eventually couldn’t help but stop her, "That’s enough, you should first go help me make some food and prepare the medicine, I’ll go take a shower, change clothes, and come down later."
After speaking, he took the clothes and went straight upstairs.
Watching his leaving figure, Brooke was somewhat stunned.
She detected a hint of anger and impatience in his words just now.
Why?
Clearly, she had already behaved very well, she had never lowered herself so much for anyone else...
Brooke felt a bit wronged in her heart.
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang.
Brooke glanced at it, discovering someone sent several pictures from the summit, followed by the message: "Being by Jordan Hawthorne’s side, is this the treatment you get?"
Seeing the last line, Brooke was startled so much that her phone fell to the ground.
Her face went pale with fear, it was that damned ex-husband again!
Had he... been at the summit that day as well?
No... Given his status, how could he possibly get in?
Brooke picked up the phone, clicked on the images, and examined them closely.
She was initially trying to see which angle they were taken from, but at last, she realized these were all images extracted from online!
The events of the summit day had ultimately been reported.
Even though the Hawthorne Group intended to suppress it, still some parts, regarding her and Jordan, leaked online.
It was no surprise, they were mocked and cursed by netizens once again.
Brooke naturally knew there was nothing good in those comments online, so she never paid attention.
But now...
Looking at the message from this unknown number, she bit her lip hard.
This man was like an incessant haunting, did he think she would be afraid of this?!
No, she wasn’t afraid of him!
As if trying to convince herself, Brooke chose not to pay attention to him, directly blocking the number.
Her only way out now was to hold onto Jordan Hawthorne tightly for a comfortable life!
She would never allow anyone to ruin it!
Later, Jordan Hawthorne came downstairs after showering, and Brooke brought the food along with the prepared medicine.
She thoughtfully helped to serve the dishes while saying to him, "Next week is the day of the medical trade conference. In the coming days, some renowned doctors should be arriving in Veridia.
I have already sent people to inquire about the legendary healer from The Chiron Sect, and if there is any news, I will definitely inform you at once!"
Seeing how considerate she was, Jordan Hawthorne thought of his earlier attitude towards her and felt a bit guilty.
He gently replied, "Mm, thank you for your efforts. I will also let Chase Lynch to inquire about it."
Brooke certainly caught the change in his tone and immediately smiled, saying: "Great! Assistant Lynch has always been very efficient, with him around, your leg will definitely be completely healed, no longer plagued by this pain!"
As she spoke, she sighed, "Back then, was Sabrina’s capability not up to par, why didn’t she thoroughly heal it? Otherwise, it wouldn’t still occasionally relapse; or rather, did she do it intentionally..." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
The latter part of her words, Brooke left unsaid.
Jordan Hawthorne could easily understand what she implied.
She was suggesting that Sabrina Hayes did it intentionally, intentionally not completely resolving the issue with his leg.
Suddenly, images of Sabrina Hayes treating him flashed through his mind.
Every time, she was dedicated, and no one knew the effects better than him.
Jordan instinctively refuted Brooke’s words, "Impossible, she wouldn’t do something like that!"
Seeing his reaction, Brooke showed a bit of agitation.
She argued, "I didn’t mean to doubt her originally, but each time she performed acupuncture or massage for you, it involved very intimate contact... And you had to rely on her to relieve the symptoms, isn’t that right?"
The implication was that Sabrina Hayes was purposely using treatment as an excuse to create opportunities for them to spend intimate moments together.
This time, even Jordan felt there might be some possibility in that statement.
Considering Sabrina’s previous intentions to win his favor.
But if it was for her own goal without regard for his health, it was truly disappointing...
Jordan’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Quietly observing him, Brooke realized her provocations succeeded.
She felt a smug satisfaction in her heart.
...
On Sabrina’s end, she slept until past two in the afternoon before waking up.
Coming out of the room, she didn’t see Jasper Fitzgerald or Zara, and even Flash was nowhere to be found.
She couldn’t help but feel puzzled, asking the busy Nanny Warren in the living room, "Where are Mr. Fitzgerald and Zara?"
Nanny Warren responded with a smile, "Mr. Fitzgerald took Miss Zara to the military district compound, he said he’s going to train Flash with new exercises!"
Hearing this, Sabrina felt a bit embarrassed.
Mr. Fitzgerald was here to help, but she slept for so long, failing to entertain him, instead letting him help mind her child...
Sabrina couldn’t help but ask Nanny Warren, "Why didn’t you wake me up at noon, letting him work so hard here, it’s really embarrassing."
Nanny Warren chuckled as she replied, "It was Mr. Fitzgerald who instructed me not to disturb you, saying you should have a good rest. He also asked me to tell you that if you wake up and want to go to the military district compound, you can head over, if not, just relax at home, he will return with the little miss later."
Of course, Sabrina was going to go.
How could she let Mr. Fitzgerald take care of her child without feeling guilty?
However, before leaving, Sabrina had a quick bite to eat.
Nanny Warren brought out the leftovers from the kitchen and talked to her while she ate, "Mr. Fitzgerald really is wonderful, after you fell asleep, he patiently took care of the little miss all day long.
The little miss also really likes him, the way they interact seems like a true father-daughter pair.
Once you two are together, you will definitely become a happy family!"
