Jay took pleasure in it, holding Angeline in his arms and saying with a smile, "When you’re by my side, I feel happy even when I'm sick."
Strangely, after coughing up thick phlegm, Jay stopped coughing.
Angeline muttered to herself, "Grandma Boye's prescription works. I think you should keep taking it for a few more days." She then turned around and went into the kitchen.
Jay's mesmerizing face darkened as he sighed weakly.
Zayne teased him, saying, "No way, you hate taking herbal medicines?"
Josephine replied on Jay’s behalf, "Big Brother is a clean freak. He’ll feel nauseous when something tastes bad."
Zayne murmured, "What a weakling.”
Jay glared at him...
Angeline brought out the medicinal soup, scooped it u p, and fed Jay. Jay drank it with a frown.
After drinking the soup, Josephine looked at Angelina's loose clothes and suggested, "It’s time for you to get some new clothes, Sis Angeline!"
Angeline looked at Josephine in a daze and said," You’re the one who should be buying more maternity clothes."
Josephine reminded her, "You're thinner than before now, Sis Angeline. Your clothes seem a little too big for you."
Jay’s faint gaze fell on Angeline’s slender legs, and his eyes became filled with heartache. He said, "Angeline won’t be so thin all the time. She’ll soon gain back her weight.’’
Zayne taunted Jay, saying, "It’s just buying a few new clothes for my sister. Look at you pinching your pennies like that."
Jay glared at Zayne. "I’m not pinching my pennies."
Zayne said, "You clearly are. Josephine said that her clothes don’t fit her and you quickly said that she'll gain back the weight. If it isn't penny-pinching, then what is?"
Jay pulled a long face, not uttering a word.
How could he not want to buy new clothes for Angeline? If Angeline wanted, he would be happy to buy all the malls in the Imperial Capital and give them to her.
He did not want to hear anyone saying that Angeline was thin, that was all.
