Chapter 2: Went Out All Night

Lisa went out all night, and Jack waited on the sofa in the living room when he returned. She held the divorce papers in her hand, and gm finished the contract in her hand, slowly moving toward Jack. 

Lisa sneezed a few steps in a row, and her nose turned red. She tried to contain the fatigue in her body, and she didn't want Jack to see this weakness of herself. 

Jack looked up at her and didn't want to move. He frowned at the sight of a pale face, growing increasingly uneasy. 

"Where have you been all night?"

Lisa was silent and did not answer, putting the paper directly in her hand. 

"I leave this behind, and now I'm leaving." 

After saying that, Lisa turned her face and walked away. But as she walked to the second-floor stairs, she suddenly became dark in front of her eyes. She reached out her hand to hold the ramparts so that she wouldn't fall, and she didn't want this look to be seen by Jack. 

At this moment, there's a sound coming from behind. She almost held her breath and couldn't look back. She wanted to walk but couldn't, then felt her arms caught. 

Jack didn't say no. After catching her wrist, they pulled her back directly against her in the chair. 

"Did I agree to let you go?"

Lisa was pulled in pain. She clenched her lips and tilted her head the other way, avoiding his gaze. 

"You let go of me..." 

Jack wouldn't let go, his rough fingers holding on to her little chin, pulling her face forward. 

"Do you want me to let go? What does your family think I am? Put one person in my bed, then take it back. Now that I'm used to it, I want to change it?" 

“…”

"Lisa, now I tell you. You must stay here, not go anywhere unless I allow you, nor will you walk away from me half a step." 

“…”

Lisa's mind went blank, and she didn't even understand what Jack said. Isn't that supposed to be over? Why is he saying this to her right now?

Seeing Lisa's dim face, Jack suddenly didn't know what else to say. Jack's hand, holding her chin, suddenly loosened a little, and his gaze softened several times. 

"If you're not feeling well, go to the restroom. After I come back, if you're not at home, the consequences are predictable."

After saying that, Jack immediately stood up, his tall back went out of the living room, and even half a sentence did not allow Lisa to argue. 

When he left, Lisa coughed so violently that her cheeks were all red. Last night after being in the rain, she went to house, her only best friend here, to sleep again. 

Lisa coughed, then slowly opened her eyes, looking at the divorce papers on the table. She could see for a while before she got up, picked it up, and then took it to the second floor.

"Jack, there's a meeting today with a partner from HZ Company at 3:00 p.m."

"Move back."

"But…"

"Don't you understand? I said put it off! Wait twice?"

Jack's Steven did not dare to "wait for reminders" directly, knowing how scared he was, but put his out. His heart is full of worries. Is it okay if he doesn't want to do this work anymore?

Jack is usually tough to get close to, and for some reason, this kiss is even more unpleasant. Every day, his employees live with stress. Half of them dare not talk. 

But this afternoon's meeting...

Steven sighed. It looks like he's got to get some sedatives in advance. 

Jack sat in the office, chin-up, looking out the window. 

HZ Company is a subsidiary of his father's corporation, and the head is his outside son. To put it bluntly, he gave me his own big company, and he wanted it to grow every day. 

And that stepson, whom he said the other day, was the one Lisa loved.

He also knows he has feelings for her, which is one of the reasons he keeps Lisa around. 

Thinking about Lisa, the expression on Jack's face is even harder to see. The clock on the wall was exactly eleven o'clock when she touched her in the morning, and it was a little hot, he doesn't know…

Jack's eyes were wide open. What is this? Is he worried about her?

No way!

—-------

The big door opened, and Jack sat in the vice-driver's seat, looking outwards with a heavy patch in his heart. 

The driver found him strange but did not dare to ask until Jack got out of the car, he said.

"Jack! You forgot your stuff."

Jack turned around, still very calm. 

"Yes."

He saved his words, just "yes," for an hour, then took a small bag from the driver's hand without saying any more words to unlock the door directly.

Jack's first act was to glance at the table in the middle of the living room. He found the table empty, took a moment of relief, and went upstairs to the second floor. 

Jack headed toward his bedroom, straightening the lock and pushing the door inward. His face froze momentarily, his hands clenched, his icy gaze upon the empty bed.

"Check security cameras immediately!" 

Jack angrily took out his phone and called out, and his voice couldn't hide his excitement. 

"Find her! If you can't find her, bring your resignation form to see me tomorrow."

"Yes, Jack! We immediately watched!" 

The other end of the line trembled and immediately turned on the monitor after turning off the camera. His heart is full of "Pray to God that I can find her"!
