12:23 Chapter 44 Dan narrowed his eyes and looked at her quietly. His cold face had no expression, and some complicated emotions surged in his deep eyes. Jane suddenly realized that she had been meeting clients and studying their information during this period of time. She didn’t want him to misunderstand her…. “Dan, I, I didn’t mean that!” She was in a hurry to defend herself. “I definitely won’t betray our marriage. I’m lying to you. I mean-” She looked at Dan eagerly. She paused, licked her lips, and said in a low voice. “I mean, if one day you find that I’m not worthy of you being so good to me, what will you do?” Dan looked at her for a long time and chuckled. He didn’t say anything, gently holding her in his arms and stroking her long hair. Jane pressed her face against his thick chest and heard his strong heartbeat. The heartbeat gave her an infinite sense of security. “Don’t overthink it. His voice was low and h oa rse. “Just get some rest.” She smiled, wrapped her arms around his waist, and closed her eyes gently. She slept exceptionally soundly that night.
Dan had always been used to sleeping alone, so he didn’t sleep much that night. His arm was used as a pillow by Jane, and the whole body was hugged tightly by her, so he didn’t dare to move easily. Early in the morning, he woke up in a daze and found that the woman was h ooked to him like an octopus. A slender, fair leg was crossed around her waist, and her two small hands were around his neck, still grinding her teeth. Her sleeping posture was not unusual, but it was still cute. He smiled and couldn’t bear to disturb her dream. He gently turned her over to the other side and carefully left the bed to cook breakfast. When Jane got up and found no one around her, her heart ski pped a beat, and she ran out barefoot. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“You’re awake?” Dan came out of the kitchen wearing an apron. “I didn’t wake you up because you slept soundly. Go wash your face and eat.” She looked at the breakfast on the table. Although it was just a simple steamed egg, milk, and bread, it was much better than the burnt ones last time. Jane was filled with happiness. She felt that she had not married the wrong person. “By the way, I have something to tell you.” Halfway through the meal, Jane suddenly remembered. “I’m going or a business trip tomorrow. I’m afraid I won’t be at home for four or five days. Take good care of yourself while I’m away.” “Business trip?” With an indifferent expression, Dan applied oil to the bread and asked, “Where are you going?” “Central City.” – Dan suddenly stopped painting, and an imperceptible haze flashed across his eyes. “Has your company done business in Central City yet?” “Yes.” Jane nodded. “The leader gave me a task and asked me to develop the market in Central City. If I succeed, he will make an exception and promote me to the sales director!” “Actually, I didn’t want to fight for anything.” Her eyes were clear, and her voice was.very soft. “But Adam Frank and Ava Zeller have gone too far. To protect myself, I must work hard to get promoted… And I have calculated that if I become the sales director, my income will be three times that of now!” She glanced at Dan, who was still expressionless. “Honey.” Jane gently held his hand and said with a smile, “When I have money, we can move to another big house and live a more comfortable life! I will buy a cheap car. You can drive it out when you’re free, and you don’t have to take the bus!” Dan looked up at her, her beautiful big eyes full of expectations for the future. A house? A car? He could have as many as he wanted. No matter how big the house was or how expensive the sports car was, in his eyes, it was as ordinary as the bread and butter in his hand.
But the woman in front of him, who was falling in love with him, would be the most precious gift for him. Dan raised his eyebrows. He felt as if a big stone had blocked his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe. “Silly girl.” He touched her head. “Do you want to raise me like a child?” Jane was stunned. “Yes, what’s wrong with that?” “Men should take good care of women. How can a wife spend money on her husband?” “I’ve been looking for a job during this period of time, and I should have some progress soon,” he said softly. “I won’t let you take on everything alone. This family belongs to two people, and I’ll be responsible for you.” Jane looked at him for a long time, smiled sweetly, peeled an egg, and put it on his plate. The next day, she went to Central City with Annie. Central City was elegant with a luxurious style. If Cardiff were a graceful noble lady, Central City was a magnificent royal princess. When the plane landed, Jane called Dan to tell him she was safe. “Honey, I’m in Central City now.” She smiled and looked around. They were walking on the bustling commercial street in the center of Central City, surrounded by towering skyscrapers. Annie was taking photos everywhere in a hurry. Dan answered lightly, “Is there anyone else around you?” “Yes, Annie came with me,” Jane said softly. “She was too playful and didn’t want to go back to the hotel, so she dragged me out for a walk.” “Well, then you two be careful. You’re unfamiliar with this place. Don’t get separated.” “Got it!” “There are many interesting places in Central City.” Dan smiled and said, “I’ll send you a few. addresses later. After you and your colleagues finish their work, you can go shopping.” Jane was stunned. After a moment of silence, she asked, “Hubby… you, you’ve been to Central City before?”
