Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99 At Your Service


After Jane separated from Cora, she returned to her office.

Inside, she found her mother, Sara, already there, holding a few boxes of snacks and instructing a doctor, "Keep one box for Jane and share the rest with your colleagues."

"Thank you, Mrs. Sara Yoris, you are so kind! Would you care to take me in as your servant? I have studied medicine and can handle a scalpel!"

The doctor joked after taking the snacks from Sara, to which she chuckled.

"You kids love to talk nonsense. Go out and have some snacks before they melt. They won't taste as good if that happened."

"In that case, I'll give you and Dr. Yoris some space."

After the doctor left, Jane took hold of Sara's hand. "Mom, why are you here?"

"I brought a few sets of clothes for your father and some of your favorite snacks," Sara replied.

"Will Dad be away from home again?" Jane's dissatisfaction with William was evident in the way she spoke.

Despite never having to worry about food and clothing growing up, she rarely saw her father, let alone interacted with him.

"He'll be attending a seminar and will leave for outstation right after work today."

Sara seemed disgruntled as well. Throughout her long marriage with William, she rarely ever spent time with him, for he spent far more time with his patients than with her.

However, they soon changed the topic. After all, they were already familiar with William's prolonged absence at home for months on end.

"I'm just here to remind you to go on dates with Byron when you have time. Don't be like your father, who spends all his time in the hospital. You'll regret when someone else takes your place on the wedding altar when you're this close to standing on it."

Sara didn't drop by Jane's office just to bring her some snacks.

The core of the matter was Byron's reluctance to get engaged with Jane during her birthday party, which left Sara feeling anxious.

Her anxiety only flared when she noticed Byron seemed to regard Cara differently. She was determined to make Jane the winner.

"I know." Jane wasn't too keen on having a conversation about Byron with her mother because she, too, found Byron's feelings unfathomable.

Their parents had supported their relationship, and Byron never denied anything when his friends joked about Jane being his fiancée when they were both present on important occasions.

Yet, when it came to setting the matter in stone, he would dance around the subject.

"What's with that response? You need to take the initiative in some things. You can't just wait for Byron to decide everything," Sara advised.
