Ryan glanced at Jane, hinting, “Don’t you think it’s a bit too bright here?”
Jane was carefully applying ointment to me. “I don’t think so. The brightness is just right.”
“Ryan.” I looked at him. “You should leave.”
“I should leave?”
Ryan cast a glance outside, his eyes darkening. “Are you planning to go be a portable blood bag for someone else?”
I understood what he meant. Although the Smith family had clarity, Mrs. Shaw and Bethany were crazed beyond reason. They saw me as a thorn and would seize any opportunity to tear me apart.
Ryan remained calm and collected, pulling up a chair by the bed and crossing his long legs. “Do you want
some water?”
“You’re sitting with your legs crossed now. Who would dare ask for water?” Jane, who was already
displeased with him, seized the opportunity to make sarcastic comments.
Ryan smiled. “Aren’t you here too?”
“You deserve to be divorced.” Jane smiled and poured a glass of water for me.
After the IV was done, it wasn’t too late yet. I wasn’t itching as much anymore.
When I walked out of the hospital, I intended to part ways with Ryan and take a taxi back to the hotel.
But he grabbed me firmly, his tone was domineering. “I’ll take you back.”
“No need…”
Before I could finish, he took off his coat and draped it over me, then bent down and lifted me onto is
shoulder, head down.
“You have a slight fever. If you’re exposed to the night breeze, it’ll make it worse.”
Jane stared in shock and whispered to lan, “What kind of drama is your boss acting out?”
He stuffed me into the car.
Jane took the front seat, and lan drove.
I was somewhat irritated. People’s true nature never changed. Especially after tearing away the facade of superficial harmony, his inherent arrogance, autocracy, and dominance surfaced bit by bit.
Maybe even today, I hadn’t seen his true colors.
The next day, Jane was on the phone with various people, taking notes as she inquired.
The calls she made to the wealthy women from last night were all for customized orders. We needed to schedule appointments, discuss preferences, and styles.
Although they were making orders due to recommendation by Madam Shaw and Madam Smith, we still needed to build our own reputation.

I poured a glass of water to take my medicine when the doorbell rang.
It was Megan.
“Charlotte, I heard you had a serious allergic reaction last night. How are you now?”
“I’m fine.”
As I opened the door to let her in, I was slightly surprised when I saw Jack with her. “Jack, why are you
here too?”
“Why do you ask?” Jack pretended to be displeased. “You had such a severe allergic reaction and didn’t tell me. Are you really okay now?”
“Much better.” I smiled and let them in.
The room was an executive suite with a living room outside the bedroom.
“What kind of allergy is it?” Megan asked with concern.
I knew what I was allergic to, so I hadn’t mentioned it to the doctor yesterday and just said it was a reaction to some food I had accidentally eaten.
I touched the rashes that hadn’t completely subsided. “It’s a food allergy. I probably ate something with yam in it by mistake.”
