Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 295

I exchanged a glance with Janice and let out a sneer, "I'm out of here!" Then I walked out with Hannah.

At the end of the corridor, I saw Jaylan standing tall and handsome, wearing a white silk shirt and grey

trousers with his hands shoved into his pockets, looking cool and aloof.

This attracted the attention of the nurses at the nurse's station, who were drooling at his appearance,

their faces full of infatuation!

It's true that good looks can be quite deceiving. With his pretentious demeanor, he was easily able to

attract these love-struck nurses.

Seeing me walk out, Jaylan immediately dropped his cool facade, breaking into a smile as he strode

over and pulled me into his arms, starting a public display of affection.

Instantly, I felt goosebumps all over my body.

Hannah, standing to one side, pursed her lips and quickly stepped back.

I knew exactly what he was up to, trying to portray himself as the perfect man.

I glanced at him. As long as he didn't overdo it, even if I felt nauseous, I had to reassure him, letting

him believe that I was willing to forgive him. I wanted him to fall hard without seeing it coming.

"Honey, why didn't you tell me you were awake?" he asked softly, without a hint of blame in his voice.

"Luckily, I decided to come and check on you."

"I thought you could use some rest!" I replied kindly.

Hearing my words, he immediately played up his response, "Being at home alone is too lonesome!"

As I cursed him silently, I thought, of course, having a maid at home would make it less lonely.

"Why are you here?" he asked casually. "I heard that Janetta is showing signs of waking up. Is she

awake now?"

On hearing it, I became alert. It seemed he knew about Janetta's condition. Clearly, Irving didn't hide it

from him. Maybe he was trying to test me.

"She's not bouncing back just like that!" I sighed and said quietly, "Being in a coma must be hard!"

"Oh, I thought she had woken up. That would be a miracle!" Jaylan agreed. "I was wondering why your

ward was empty when I came."

"I woke up and was hungry, so Hannah got me some food. I ate a bit too much and wanted to take a

walk, so we came here," I explained casually. "After all, with Janice's status, I have to come and visit."

"Why didn't you wait for me to come?" Jaylan asked.

I scoffed silently, thinking, what the hell does he think he is?

"It's late, and besides, all the patients are women. It wouldn't be appropriate," I replied nonchalantly.

"Don't you have things to deal with tomorrow? There's no need to rush over here."

I spoke lightly, without showing any emotion.

"Without you, it's not a home!" he said so naturally that I wondered if there was something wrong with

his brain. Or maybe he was so into his role that he had convinced himself.

After all that had happened, I would be stupid if I still believed his lies.

"That's good enough to fool yourself," I thought.

"Oh... have you checked the trending news?" he asked me excitedly.

"No, what's up?" I asked nonchalantly. Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

"The internet has cleared your name," he said casually.

I stopped in my tracks and looked at me coldly. "Was I ever guilty? Don't you know why all this

happened, Jaylan? Do you think I deserve to die?"

The moment I said this, he realized his mistake and immediately pulled me into his arms. "I misspoke. I

was wrong... I was just repeating what people on the internet say! The situation has turned around!

That's what I should have said!"

He was very apologetic, repeatedly admitting his mistake and trying to pacify me. Then he said

ingratiatingly, "There's more good news. You'll be pleased to hear!"

He intentionally left me hanging, looking at me with an expectant smile.

"Well, don't keep me waiting!" I said, rolling my eyes at him.

He grinned, clearly satisfied, and said, "The property manager of our estate has been arrested!"

"Oh?" This, indeed, piqued my interest.
