Chapter 61

Ethan glanced at his phone and his gaze softened. “I miss her already,” he admitted. “What do you think I should do?”It had only been two hours since he last saw her. Wasn't he tired of her presence yet? Bruce had a good sense not to say that though, so he only asked tentatively, “Why don't I get someone to photograph her in secret?”Ethan took a moment to contemplate the idea. “Alright. Go ahead.”Bruce suppressed a wry smile. His Young Master never showed this side of him to anyone else. Work matters no longer concerned him, only his wife. Love was a troublesome affair indeed.####In the classroom, Jane put down her phone and prepared for her lesson.“Was that your husband?” Ivy teased her.Jean smiled shyly and nodded.Ivy sighed. Her friend was in love.“I have got to give it to you. You actually fell for a man who looks so… unique. Not to mention one who can't get it up. Science dictates that intimacy is a vital part of a relationship; you must be determined to prove them wrong

Professor Sam couldn't repress a smile. He had seen all this play out before. He could tell that Brock Davenport and Darren Leister – two of his top students – liked Jane. Her academics were not bad, but she seemed overly focused on studying; too dense to be aware of such emotional nuances. It was hard to say who would win the pretty girl's heart in the end.####After her shift ended, Jane quickly packed her things and went to look for Darren Leister. At the end of the corridor, she saw a tall, straight backed man standing by the window.Rays of sunlight bathed his face, highlighting its youthful lines. Jane quickened her steps and walked up to him. “Senior, I have a favor to ask of you.”Darren Leister looked at Jane smiling brightly, as though it were the result of the sunlight. He couldn't help but inch closer to her, their proximity filling him with a steadily growing warmth.“Go ahead. What is it?”“I want to attend the traditional medicine club to learn some skills," she said, e

Jane must have played some tricks on him for a noble man like Ethan Harrington to endure degrees and smoke of the kitchen to help her with her cooking.Jane was an efficient worker, in half an hour she had prepared three dishes and a soup. She called Cassidy and Bruce over for dinner.But Ethan said, “They already had their dinner. Come, let's eat.”“Bruce, Dr Owen, you both have eaten?” Jane asked, puzzled.Cassidy hadn't had dinner yet, but Bruce answered for her.“Yes, Young Mistress. We ate together earlier. Do enjoy your meal. Call us if you need anything.”Cassidy glared at him. She had not eaten so why would he say otherwise?Bruce shot in look, warning her not to air her grievances in front of them. Helplessly Cassidy bit her anger back and let him lead her out.####When they reached the courtyard, Bruce made sure that Jane hadn't followed them before informing her.“Dr Owen, you are still new here so you might not understand how things work out. In the future, whenever the Yo

Jane's eyes lit up. “You have to take off your clothes.”“Would you mind that?” he asked, smiling.“Of course not," she said without a trace of humor. “You are devoting yourself to the study of medicine!”He nodded, matching her seriousness. “Help me take them off then.”Jane immediately helped him take off his jacket and shirt. The light shone down on his muscles, accentuating their sculpted well-defined lines. Jane’s face turned red. Just by looking at him, she felt that something was wrong. Her husband was ill. How could he be so muscular? It didn't make sense.“Dear, you cough just from being out in the wind. How did you manage to train your muscles?”Ethan was caught off guard by her question. Had he shot himself in the foot?Ethan was about to explain himself when Jane said, “You are really self-reliant, dear. You still force yourself to train even though it's difficult. You are amazing.”He nodded in agreement.“It must be very challenging when you exercise.” Jane felt heartache

She let her eyes wander over his jaw, tilted towards the side of his chest where his heart rested. She was happy to be married to a man who doted on her. He wasn't handsome, or healthy, but he was trying to heal, and so far his treatment was going well. He was hers – as long as he was alive, he was hers. She was a lucky woman indeed.In the middle of the night, Ethan was woken up by the heat. He lifted the blanket and looked at the woman in his arms, then got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom. Whenever he hugged her to sleep, he would be a little restless but his body's reaction felt off.The areas where Jane had rubbed the essential oil felt like they were on fire. He frowned. Was this the result of his wife's treatment? If so, the effects were certainly pronounced.He had to take a cold shower for more than ten minutes before he recovered. He returned to his room, not daring to hug Jane again. However, his wife was in a daze, as if she were looking for him. She rolled over

“Gone abroad for treatment?” Jane was even more worried. Last night, she had even foolishly waited for him to come back to bed. If only he had said he wasn't feeling well, she could have gone with him!“Don't worry. It will be fine.”Jane eyed her. If my husband needs treatment, Dr Owen, why aren't you with him?”A flicker danced across Cassidy's gaze and she nearly choked in her haste to explain herself.“Bruce didn't call me because he was rushing to get an air ticket. But it also means that Ethan's condition isn't too serious so he didn't have to bring me along.”Jane was relieved to hear that her husband's condition wasn't critical, but she was still very worried. She ate her breakfast listlessly, scarcely tasting her food.Cassidy took pleasure in her low spirits.“I told you Ethan will be fine, Jane. Why are you still so worried? Are you afraid that he will fool around with other women when he's gone?”Jane glanced that her and said dully, ‘What is there to be afraid of? He can't

He was puzzled. Was she angry? Feeling a little frustrated, he called Cassidy to inquire about his wife.“I've been trying to reach you” Cassidy said when she picked up. Jane wasn't in the best mood this morning. She went out and isn't home yet. It's so late, is it safe for a girl like her to be out alone?”“Did she pick up when you called her?” Ethan instantly sounded anxious.“No.” Cassidy sounded worried but she was secretly overjoyed. Jane had gone to W County with no address to go to, she must be panicking. Cassidy wondered what would happen to her…Ethan hung up, his expression troubled. He called Bruce over and ordered him to find out where his wife was.After asking around Jane's school, Bruce found out that Jane and Ivy left together after school, then he got in contact with a puzzled Ivy.“She booked a flight to W County yesterday. She should have reached it a long time ago!”Bruce’s scalp tingled. Are you sure she went to W County?”“What do you mean?” Ivy felt that somethin

“It's been hard on you Jane. I will take you to rest after you've treated your wound.”“No thank you, Senior. I want to find my husband first.” Jane went to the front desk to ask if there was a patient named Ethan Harrington.When Brock Davenport heard her utter Ethan Harrington's name, he looked at her with heartache. So she had only come to look for that cripple Ethan Harrington. He nearly turned around and left but when he saw her face etched with worry, complete with her injured arm, his heart softened.“I will help you look for him, Jane.”“The two of them looked around and checked the hospital records but they found no trace of Ethan Harrington.Brock Davenport comforted her with the suggestion that her husband wasn't in this hospital. He would take her to treat her wound and then go to his place to rest for a while. Otherwise even if she found her husband she will be in no clear position to take care of him if she was unwell herself.Jane felt depressed but there was nothing els

Chapter 69

Bruce followed Ethan into the mansion and met an obviously fidgety Cassidy in the living room who hopped off the couch immediately as they walked in.“Did you find her?” she asked Ethan as she stepped towards them but he brushed past her and went up the stairs to the room, his posture stiff and gait brisk.She turned to Bruce with a questioning gaze, “What happened in W county?”Bruce cleared his throat as he eyed the direction which his Young Master had exited.“It would seem, Dr Owen, that the Young Mistress has gone to Young Master Davenport in W County.”“Gone?” She echoed, “Pardon me but I don’t think I understand what you just said… Jane loves Ethan very much so that has to be some sort of misunderstanding.”Bruce sighed, “I wish it was but unfortunately it isn’t. Young Master Ethan found her at the Davenport mansion in W county, asleep in Young Master Davenport’s bed.”Cassidy gasped in disbelief, “I can’t believe this! After everything Ethan has done for her? Did Young Master D

Bruce pondered the situation as he exited his Young Master’s office, he wondered if they were doing the right thing. He was already having doubts because it was him who had reported to Ethan and he wouldn’t be able to bear the guilt if he had indeed missed something.But he had to obey the Young Master’s order for now or his head would be absent from the rest of his body before dawn.As he went down the stairs, Cassidy emerged from the closed off balcony beside Ethan’s study. She hid her victorious smirk and entered the study.“Ethan, how are you feeling?” She put on a look of worry as she attempted to walk behind his desk but he pinned her with his sharp gaze and she froze.“I would appreciate some quiet in my study, Cassidy. I have work to do.”“Of course, just let me know if you need anything,” she retraced her steps and sashayed to the door then turned to look at him again.“And I’m always here if you need to speak to someone.”Ethan watched as she shut the door behind her before l
