President's Substitute Wife novel Chapter 442

When I was about to go downstairs, the bodyguard caught up with me. “You can leave. Mr. Jessop just wants to get rid of you.”

“I know. I won’t leave.”

I said calmly.

The bodyguards recognized me yesterday.

The bodyguard sighed behind me. “You are too stubborn.”

“Well, I think so.”

I said with a smile.

I went to the garden in the winter clothes of the servants and cotton gloves.

This was my first time here. The garden looked bigger.

In front of this garden of several hundred square meters, I knew I couldn’t finish it.

How long could I hold on?

But forget it.

Since I said I would not leave, I must not leave.

I took a deep breath and squatted down and began to pull the grass.

The whole garden was covered with thick snow. When I picked up the snow, I found that no one had cleaned it for a long time. The whole garden was overgrown with weeds.

I squatted there and began to pull the grass.

The grass was very fragile in winter. They broke easily. I thought I could do it this way.

But soon a bodyguard told me, “Mr. Jessop said you had to pull out the grass roots.”

Sean seemed to have figured it out.

I slowly pulled the roots out by hand.

At first, I thought it was OK.

But the cold was creeping into my gloves. My hands soon froze and had difficulty bending, let alone pulling grass.

I squatted there and took off my gloves. Then I put my hands in my clothes to keep warm and went on.

In this way, I pulled the grass till the sun went down.

In the evening, it was colder here.

The bodyguards took turns to stand guard.

A bodyguard kindly advised me. “Becky, you can tell Mr. Jessop you can’t do it and then you can leave. Mr. Jessop doesn’t really want to embarrass you. He just wants you to leave.”

“I will not leave.”

I said calmly.

Actually, I was freezing at this time.

But I didn’t want to leave.

In fact, at this time, I thought Sean and I were not competing for who could hold on more, but who would give up first.

Sean did it just to push me away.

I knew why he wanted to push me away. I didn’t believe that he would watch me suffer cruelly.

I was just betting that he loved me.

He didn’t say he loved me except when he married Cindy.

But I wanted to make a bet.

The sun set. Soon it was dark.

I pulled the grass slowly. I occasionally looked back and saw that the light in Sean’s bedroom was still on.

I could see him clearly sitting at the window and looking at me.

Rachel was standing beside him.

My whole body froze at this time. I wanted to take a hot bath, but I knew I couldn’t.

Sean was waiting for me to give up.

But I would not give up.

Time flied.

Then the light went out in Sean’s room. I guessed he was asleep.

The new bodyguard asked me if I wanted to rest. I refused decisively. “No, he said I can’t rest before I finish.”

I wanted to rest, but I was afraid Sean was testing me.
