Laura wasn't a hateful person, but neither was she a saint. There was no way she could forget what Luke had done in the past.In the afternoon, Lewis and Helen came to the hospital as well.The two of them had brought quite a lot of things as well. Lewis sized Chris up and down and said, "Will your face be okay? Why are there so many bandages?"After hearing Lewis's words, Laura's face darkened.She really didn't like Lewis's tone of voice."Mr. Jacobs, please leave if there's nothing else you want to talk about. Chris needs to rest."When Lewis heard those words, he glared at Laura. "What did you just say? What's wrong with me visiting my injured son? Who are you to drive me out of the room?"Lewis felt that he should have been there when Chris married Laura. If he had been there, he wouldn't have allowed Chris to marry Laura.Now that he was back, he would make sure that Harry would get married only with his permission.If he didn't give the word, Harry would not be allowed
"If I had known this would happen, I would have returned earlier. If I had been here, I would have definitely not allowed Chris to marry such a woman.""Well, it's not too late for that." A meaningful look appeared on Helen's face."Huh? What are you talking about, Helen?" Lewis didn't know what Helen was talking about."Never mind. Let's head back for now, Lewis. I don't like the smell of hospitals." Helen raised her head and smiled at Lewis.She hoped that Nicole would be of some use after she was released.Chris was hospitalized for three days. After Chris was discharged, he was prepared to head straight to work. Laura's heart ached at such a sight."Why in such a rush? You should stay at home and rest for a couple more days."Chris still had bandages that weren't removed.Chris shook his head. He then put on a hat and face mask. "It's alright. I can walk now, there's no need to worry. I'm fine."Looking at Laura's face, Chris reached out and caressed her hair.Laura's bod
Laura arrived at the top floor of the Jacobs Group without any problems.Standing outside the CEO's office, Laura knocked on the door."Come in." A familiar voice came from inside the office.It was Chris.Laura pushed the door open and walked inside. That was when she locked gazes with a pair of dark eyes.Chris was reading a file and when he saw Laura, his hand froze. "Laura."Apart from Chris, Assistant Jacobs was also in the room.Chris was sitting in the main seat as he read the file. Assistant Jacobs was sitting in front of a smaller table at the side."You..."Looking at the chairs that Chris and Assistant Jacobs were sitting in, Laura felt a little confused.Looking at Laura's eyes, Chris's heart skipped a beat. "I'm wounded and the Mr. Jacobs' chair is more comfortable than mine, so he allowed me to sit in his seat."Assistant Jacobs quickly nodded his head as well.Only then did Laura understand why Chris was sitting in the main seat.She had been wondering why C
"I'll go with you."Laura was worried about Chris's wounds, so she didn't want him walking around so much. She then pressed Chris back onto the chair. "Don't move and stay here. I'll bring the food over."Looking at Laura's deliberate straight face, Chris felt helpless. "Okay. I'll do with whatever. You can order what you like."Laura walked to the counter and looked at the menu.The canteen of the Jacobs Group served quite a lot of dishes. Laura picked up a tray and returned very quickly. However, the food on the tray was what Chris usually liked to eat."Eat up. We don't want the food to become cold." Laura passed the cutlery to Chris.Chris smiled and felt warm deep down.He didn't expect Laura to remember what he liked to eat normally.Chris began eating and Laura sat opposite him."The food's not bad."Laura tasted the food and felt that the food was quite nice.Chris nodded in agreement. "Yep, you're right."It might be a canteen, but Chris remembered that the chefs o
Laura couldn't tell what exactly was strange about the two people, but she could just feel that they were strange."I don't know." Chris shook his head calmly. "It's probably because they're quite busy, so they're quite tired.""Probably."The Jacobs Group was a big company, so Laura felt that people would definitely be very busy. She had heard Chris call the two people "Mr. Leech" and "Mr. Williamson", so she felt that the two people were probably senior executives. Therefore, they would be under even more pressure."You're wounded at the moment, don't put yourself under too much pressure. Neither should you push yourself too much."Chris knew Laura was worried about him, so he smiled. "Okay."After the meal, Laura held Chris's hand and walked him back to the office on the top floor before leaving.For the next few days, Laura was worried that Chris would forget to have lunch again, so she would prepare lunch in the convenience store and take it to Chris. She did this until Sat
After Laura and Chris left the hospital, Laura decided to treat Chris to dinner in order to celebrate the fact that Chris's face wasn't scarred.During dinner, Laura noticed that Chris would occasionally look at her forehead. She then asked teasingly, "What's up? Do you think I look ugly now?""No." Chris frowned. "Why would I think you look ugly?"Chris had the same thought as Laura. He didn't want Laura to be scarred either.He suggested that Laura go to the beauty center that Harry had contacted, but Laura refused."My scar is faint. It's no big deal. No one will be able to see it if I cover it with my hair," said Laura. "I've never been scarred before, so this scar will probably disappear soon as well."Some scars would fade with time and disappear in the end. Laura felt that the scar on her forehead would probably disappear with time as well."By the way, how are Liam and Emily?"Laura hadn't bothered dealing with the two of them before, because she knew that Chris had bee
Chris accepted the money and didn't try to return it to Laura.On the morning of the next. After Laura and Chris finished breakfast, they were about to head out.Before they headed out, Chris looked at Laura, who was empty-handed, and asked, "Aren't you going to bring a bag with you?""What bag? Aren't we coming back after we buy the car?" Laura felt that she wouldn't need to bring a bag with her."I'd suggest you bring one. I might need to ask you to carry some things for me."Laura felt a little puzzled, but still listened to Chris and brought a bag with her.After arriving at the car dealer, a salesperson walked up to them and asked them what kind of car they were planning to buy.Chris gave the salesperson a budget of 40 thousand dollars and then the two of them followed the salesperson around."I want the top configuration and please change the color of the car to pink."The original color of the car was black.When Laura heard Chris's words, she widened her eyes in shoc
When Laura walked past Sir Wayne, he said to Laura, "Can't you see that I'm here? Should you say hello to me? Don't you know any manners?"It was obvious that Sir Wayne was looking for trouble. Chris stopped walking.He held Laura's hand and squinted his eyes as he looked at Sir Wayne."Granduncle, have you been reading lately?"Sir Wayne was a little taken aback by Chris's question. He didn't know what Chris was trying to say."No.""Then I'd suggest you read more books, Granduncle."With that said, Chris headed into the house whilst holding Laura's hand.Looking at Laura and Chris's receding figures, Sir Wayne came back to his senses and said angrily, "Is that bastard telling me to read more books and mind my own business?"Harry also came to Madam Jacobs' house today.Not long after Laura and Chris arrived, Harry also came through the door.Sir Wayne was infuriated, so when he saw Harry, he waved his hand. "Harry, come over here.""What is it, Granduncle?" Harry walked o
