Chapter 104 Matthew Likes You
After exiting Hilton Group, Elizabeth hailed a taxi to the hospital. She deliberately bought Pearl’s favorite dessert and a cosmetics set for Jessica.
When she arrived at the ward, Pearl had gotten her injection and fallen asleep. Jessica was also sleeping beside the kid’s bed.
Seeing that, Elizabeth took a blanket and covered Jessica with it. Jessica was only lightly dozing, and she opened her eyes as she felt a warmth on her body.
She had gotten used to it two years ago, as she was wonied about her kid. Hence, she would be awakened by even a little noise.
“You’re here, Lizzy,” Jessica remarked as she wiped her face.
“Just sleep a little longer.” Elizabeth adjusted the blanket on Jessica.
Jessica shook her head. When she saw the cosmetics and desserts on the table, her gaze
darkened.
“Lizzy, why did you buy me the cosmetics? I don’t even have the mood for it now.”
If it were not a requirement to put up makeup when working in Night City, she would not.
even want to wash her face during the day, not to mention any skincare routine.
Elizabeth caressed Jessica’s face. “Women should never give up on taking care of their
appearance, no matter how bad the situation is. It’s not for others but for yourself.”
That was what she learned from the past. No matter how tough her life was, she persisted in
carrying on her daily skincare routine, having a morning run, and practicing yoga.
Maintaining her appearance boosted her self-esteem, and her mood eventually got better.
Nodding, Jessica responded, “You’re right. We should not give up on ourselves.”
Just then, a caregiver entered the ward. Her name was Audrey Barber. She had been helping Jessica take care of Pearl all this while. She could not help but sympathize with Jessica, and she
took care of Pearl wholeheartedly.
“Jess, don’t you have something to do today? Just go ahead.”
“Ms. Barber,” the two ladies greeted.
