Chapter 638: 638: Assistance
“To be honest, Mrs. Jenkins, you look much better. Your skin is glowing, you seem vibrant, you look ten years younger,” he said.
Mrs. Jenkins laughed happily, “You haven’t had breakfast yet, let’s eat together. Where are Daniel and Olivia Jenkins? Didn’t they come?”
Simon Howard lowered his head instantly, not responding immediately.
Mrs. Jenkins suddenly slightly furrowed her eyebrows, her expression turned solemn, “Could they have gotten into a fight? No, that can’t be right. Based on the TV report yesterday where they attended the inauguration ceremony together, they seemed rather affectionate…why aren’t you saying anything?”
Simon Howard pressed his lips together and looked up at Mrs. Jenkins.
His expression mirrored his helplessness, “They indeed had a falling out. What you saw on the TV was merely a facade, it was my boss trying to protect her, to drum up public interest and ratings for her TV series. My boss treats her well, cherishes her with all his heart. But she never appreciates him. Even when my boss fell sick and was hospitalized with a high, unrelenting fever, she didn’t come to visit him, not even once. How cruel!”
Mrs. Jenkins, I apologize, I had no other choice but to come to you. The doctor said my boss needs to rest and must not leave the hospital casually. But he’s constantly thinking about his wife, worrying himself sick; it’s really difficult to get well without her!
Maybe, Mrs. Jenkins, you could visit Daniel at the hospital, say a few comforting words to him, then perhaps he will listen, and he might feel better, and then he would recover faster.”
The elderly Olivia Jenkins’ expression became even more solemn and her voice a bit stern, “I understand, I will help. Mr. Howard, you should have told me sooner.”
Simon Howard gave Mrs. Jenkins a respectful bow, “My heartfelt thanks, Mrs. Jenkins! Daniel always protects and cares for his wife. So, he would rather silently endure all this instead of speaking ill of her. He couldn’t bear to see anyone criticize her.
On the Marshall Family’s end, Mr. Alexander Marshall’s condition is not getting better, there are many things to worry about, and family conflict is plenty. Daniel…Daniel…he’s really enduring a lot. I hope everyone can understand!”
Mrs. Jenkins immediately called off her breakfast, asking Leaf Fiona to pack so they could have it in the hospital with Daniel
During the New Year period, with Mr. Alexander Marshall’s incident, both Daniel and Olivia Jenkins were both busy. They didn’t come back to have meals with her. She thought it was nothing serious, little did she know they’d had a falling out and didn’t say anything.
This cannot continue!
…
As they were nearing RenewalCare Hospital, Mrs. Jenkins asked Leaf Fiona to call Olivia Jenkins to immediately come to the hospital to see Daniel.
Olivia Jenkins was stunned, her eyes widening a bit, “Leaf Fiona, what’s going on? My grandmother she…?”
“We’re about to reach RenewalCare Hospital. Mrs. Jenkins is yet to have breakfast, and she’s bringing breakfast for the boss. Please, come over,” replied Leaf Fiona.
“Understood, I’ll be right over.”
Just as Olivia Jenkins hung up, she spewed out a litany of curses aimed at Daniel.
This jerk is faultless!
He clearly did something wrong. He is inexcusable, he refuses to live separately, even using his grandmother as a reason. This jerk deserves a beating!
Originally Olivia Jenkins was heading back to the set, but at the intersection she had to turn around and hurried to RenewalCare Hospital instead.
If not for her grandmother, Olivia Jenkins really wouldn’t have gone to the hospital to see Daniel.
Upon thinking about it, Olivia Jenkins felt very frustrated.
…
After freshening up, Daniel lay on the hospital bed. His face still looked rather pale.
Simon Howard went out to get him porridge, leaving only the nurse with him in the room.
Suddenly, the door to the room opened and Mrs. Jenkins and Leaf Fiona walked in.
