Chapter 255 It’s You?
Get Boys
After Donahue left, Janet fell asleep in a daze under the effect of the
anesthetic.
When she woke up, it was already late, and the room was dark. Janet looked
to the side in a daze.
Beacher had changed into a cotton gray casual suit and was sitting in a chair. He rested with one hand on his chin and closed his eyes.
He had probably just washed up since his soft hair was scattered in front of his forehead. There was only one light turned on in the room, and the yellow soft light shone on his face vaguely, making him innocent and gentle.
Janet sighed softly. She figured that Beacher was indeed a decent man when
he wasn’t talking.
Beacher was just taking a nap, and he heard Janet’s sigh clearly. He hurriedly
opened his eyes. “Janet, are you feeling unwell?”
Before Janet could speak, Beacher turned on the lights in the room. With a
click sound, in an instant, the room was utterly bright.
Janet narrowed her eyes slightly. “Beacher, my eyes…”
וד
Beacher panicked for a second and quickly adjusted the light. “Are you OK?
Sorry, my bad. I just want to see if you are feeling unwell.”
Beacher always turned reckless when he was nervous, and Janet had long.
been accustomed to that. She shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Beacher heaved a sigh of relief and raised his hand to look at the time. “Are you hungry? I brought you some food. Do you want me to heat it for you?”
Janet was indeed a bit hungry, so she nodded. “Thank you, Beacher.”
Beacher raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at her from the corner of his eyes. “Remarkable. You actually become polite after suffering once.”
After saying that, Beacher turned around and went out to heat the food.
Janet threw a pillow at his back angrily.
She thought, if it were not for my condition, I would have shown him how
polite I could be!
Because Janet was weak, most of her food was something light. The three
men went through a lot of trouble, and luckily, they found a great cook,
though they had just landed in Canada.
Beacher placed the food in front of her. He was a little clumsy, but he still
strictly forbade Janet to do it herself.
“With me, the famous world–class championship driver, taking care of you,
you should be grateful. Don’t be a troublemaker!”
Beacher served some soup for Janet. Meanwhile, he mocked Marvin and
Donahue and boasted, “Jill, see? I’m the one who dotes on you the most.
Where are Marvin and Donahue? They are nowhere to be seen!”
Janet turned a deaf ear to Beacher’s nagging. She gave the soup a go and
praised it, “Not bad. It reminds me of the time when I was a kid.”
Beacher placed some vegetables on her plate, his eyes filled with kindness
and love as he began to recall the past, “You were so cute when you were a
little girl. You were so chubby back then…”
“Enough. Enough…” Janet choked on the soup and coughed a few times.
violently, feeling that the wound on her body began to ache.
“You know that’s my sore spot! Who was the chubby one? Have you
forgotten? You were three times chubbier than me!”

Beacher didn’t dare to argue with her, afraid that he would piss her off. He
hurriedly poured her a glass of water.
Janet thought, Lily is here to work. The right thing to do now is to pay her and
send her away nicely. She doesn’t deserve to stay here and be tortured
mentally.
Besides, maybe her leaving will be a good thing for me. Janet looked up at Beacher, and an imperceptible smile crossed her eyes.
