Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife novel Chapter 148

Jessica went back to the bedroom with Raphael in her arms. The puppy was sleeping soundly.

However, Jessica stayed awake.

“Lorenzo, you need to work overnight?” Jessica texted euphemistically.

“Yes, I will be busy tonight. I won’t be back.” Lorenzo texted back the next second.

He must be waiting for her message, she supposed.

Jessica was speechless.

“Can we talk?” Jessica texted again. She knew she needed to take the initiative to solve the problem before it was getting worse.

“Time for bed. I gotta go for a video conference.” Again, Lorenzo texted back immediately.

Obviously, he figured out an excuse to decline her request.

Of course, Jessica noticed that. Stuffed with upset, she smashed her phone on the queen bed and lifted the pillow for Lorenzo to smash it.

After venting out her anger, she lay down with the pillow into her arms, from which she could smell the scent of Lorenzo. Soon, she fell asleep as her heart was eased.

…

Jessica waited up early in the next morning. After washing herself up, she got changed and hurried to the Training Institute. When she reached the pharmacy, there was no one else but the keeper.

After doing some research, she walked to the yard to relax herself. While she was walking to the garden, she saw an old lady, who seemed sick while teetering. Jessica hurried over to catch her before she hit the ground.

“Ma’am, are you okay? I am a doctor. I can help you.” Jessica showed the lady her identity card. She supported her to the bench nearby.

After doing a physical check for her, she noticed that this old lady was in awful situation—she was in the midst of terminal cancer.

She took out her needle and portable medical equipment.

After disinfecting the needle, she started the treatment.

“I must be blessed by God at the end of my life. I can’t believe I meet such an incredible goddess like you. Really dazzling!” the old lady felt like dreaming when seeing her gorgeous look.
