Chapter 296: The Mysterious Man 8

Saying so, Dennis got up and went downstairs.

I was stunned for a while, not knowing what to say.

Dennis didn’t come back until the night. Alex had taken Clarie Bear home with him, and I lay in bed all day, having trouble falling asleep.

When he came back, it was already early morning. He frowned slightly when he saw that I was still awake, “Did you get some sleep, babe?”

“I'm about to sleep.”

He started speaking with an "mhm." “Turn off the lights and go to bed!” He walked up to me and kissed me on the forehead, slowly.

He said in a deep voice, “I have to go to Country M and come back tomorrow afternoon. Have a good night's sleep, okay? Nanny Daisy has already come, so just tell her what you would like to eat, and sleep well. Don’t stay up late, or I will forcefully take you to the hospital myself when I come back.”

“Why are you going to Country M suddenly?” It was so late already - Why was Dennis leaving for Country M now?

He smoothed my hair and said in a warm voice, “I just have to go there and deal with some minor matter - That's all.”

I frowned. Usually, if it was not a big deal, he basically would not come to me with an explanation but send me a message, instead. But he came back today and told me in person, so it was probably a quite serious problem.

Pulling him, I said, “What's wrong?”

He laughed and kissed me on my forehead, “Did you prepare something special for me as a romantic farewell?”

“Dennis, you rascal!”

He smiled, “I’m your husband, not a rascal. This is called flirting, babe. Rest well at home, and make it up to me when I come back!”

Dennis George, you did always say everything calmly and confidently.

Seeing me blushing, he didn't say much, and said, "Marcus is waiting for me downstairs, have a good rest, and wait for me to come back!"

He grabbed a jacket and went out with a few belongings. I was going to follow him and see him off.

But I was then pressed on the bed by him. “Listen to me, babe. Have a good rest!”

Shortly after he went downstairs, I heard the sound of the car engine starting. And he drove off away.

I was lying on the bed, and just as I thought, I could hardly fall asleep, especially with Dennis not around, it was even more impossible for me to fall asleep.

I stayed up until dawn. When I got up, I was groggy - I felt dizzy after walking a few steps.

Nanny Daisy was cleaning up in the kitchen, and when she saw me stumbled, she quickly stepped forward to help me.

“Ms. Clara, were you not being able to sleep last night? Why are there such big dark circles under your eyes?”

I rubbed between my brows, and my shoulders and waist were sore

I sat on the chair, looked at Nanny Daisy, and said, “Daisy, can you please pour me a glass of water?”

She nodded immediately, poured some water for me, watched me take a few sips, and said, “I’ll make some porridge for you in a while. And after you finish breakfast, you should go back to your bedroom and have a good rest. If you still can’t fall asleep, I'll take you to the hospital.”

I nodded lightly. My shoulders were sore and uncomfortable, probably due to a lack of rest.

I took out my mobile phone and called Jackie Wells. The call got connected after ringing a couple of times.

“Ms. Clara, I’ll be there in about an hour. I have to deal with some stuff at home, so there might be a few minutes’ delays.”

I was supposed to meet with her yesterday, but because of my health condition, it got postponed.

Toward the phone, I took a breath and said, “I may not be able to make it today. Could you come to the T Villas instead?”

She paused and nodded, “Sure!”
