Filed to story: I Got Married Without You
Did Andrew not give the development rights to the Moore Group?
Wasn’t Ms. Moore his lover?
She couldn’t quite figure it out, but she didn’t ask any further and said to Jackson, “Congratulations.”
Jackson didn’t like her polite and distant look. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something but felt that he was not qualified to do so.
Suppressing the strange feeling in his heart, he stepped forward and asked, “Are you hungry?”
Rosalyn shook her head, only to find that her clothes had been changed.
Her skeptical and shocked gaze fell on Jackson.
“It was the maid who helped you change it.”
Sensing the misunderstanding in her eyes, Jackson immediately explained.
Hearing this, Rosalyn breathed a sigh of relief.
She felt a little uncomfortable and looked at Jackson. “I’m sorry.”
Jackson waved his hand and gently said, “It’s normal for you to misunderstand.”
After he finished speaking, Rosalyn didn’t know how to respond.
She thought that she should get up and leave now, but her legs…
Just as she was thinking about how to ask Jackson to send her back, she heard him call out to the outside lightly. “Cora.”
A middle-aged woman in her 40s or 50s came in with a plate after answering.
The woman was a little fa t, and there was always a gentle smile on her face, looking very kind.
After placing the food tray on the table, she smiled and said to Rosalyn, “Miss, I don’t know what you like to eat, so I prepared some breakfast according to Mr. Collins’s taste. You can have some to fill your stomach, and I’ll make something delicious for you for lunch later.”
Her kindness made Rosalyn feel a little less uncomfortable. “Thank you.”
Cora waved her hand and said, “You’re welcome.”
After that, she walked out and closed the door behind her.
Rosalyn felt that Cora must have misunderstood something, so she closed the door for them.
Thinking of this, she felt even more uncomfortable. She quickly struggled to sit up from the bed.
She leaned against the headboard, a little embarrassed, and asked Jackson, “Can you take me home?”
Jackson did not respond. He frowned and asked, “Do you have any other disease besides cardiopathy?”
Seeing that he was suspicious of her, Rosalyn’s face suddenly darkened.
“I’m not sick.”
“Then why do you even have to struggle to sit up?”
Rosalyn was stunned for a moment. No matter how well she pretended, Jackson could see through her.
“I have an insufficient blood supply, so I feel weak when tired.” “Insufficient blood supply?”
His tone was full of skepticism, which sounded a bit harsh to Rosalyn.
She coldly retorted, “Mr. Collins, do you have to hear the word “terminal illness” from my mouth before you believe me?” Jackson quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant. I just think…”
Rosalyn interrupted him coldly, “No matter what you mean, and I don’t have to report my physical condition to you, do I?” After these words silenced Jackson, the suppressed anger in his heart suddenly burst out again.
“Rosalyn, can you not talk to me in this tone?”
“What kind of tone do you want me to use to talk to you, Mr. Collins? Begging? Or flattering?”
Rosalyn stared at Jackson without blinking.
She wanted to see if he still had any conscience.
He was the one who had broken her artificial heart and caused her heart failure. How could he blame her for speaking in such a tone? She had already refrained from retaliating. Why couldn’t she speak to him in such a tone?!
Jackson looked at Rosalyn, who had a cold expression, and suddenly felt that she was a hedgehog.
As long as he got a little closer, she would pr ick him with all her thoms so that he would not dare to take another step forward.
He frustratedly said, “I don’t want you to beg me or please me. I just want to make sure you’re okay.””
Rosalyn was ready to fight with him but didn’t expect him to say such a thing.
She looked at Jackson in a daze, but he smiled at her.
His smile was faint and clean, without any scheming.
He seemed genuinely concerned about her physical condition and asked a few more questions. Jackson turned around, picked up the plate on the table, and handed it to Rosalyn. “Eat something first.” Rosalyn did not respond. Her dim eyes were staring blankly at the food on the plate.
“Ms. Garcia?”
Jackson called her name, and then Rosalyn slowly raised her head to look at him.
Her eyes were filled with tears, but her expression was extremely Indifferent.
Jackson’s heart suddenly tightened uncontrollably when he saw the look in her eyes.
It was as if he had done something wrong to her, which made him nervous and guilty.
He was about to speak, but Rosalyn said, “You just said that you want to make sure I’m fine, then why did you treat me like that five years ago?”
She did not intend to mention the past again, but what he said suddenly touched her heart.
She couldn’t understand why he wanted her dead, yet now he was concerned about her physical health.
What was the reason for such a contradictory person to say such words?
Jackson was stunned for a few seconds, and then an apologetic expression appeared.
