40. I’ll Go and Smoke a Cigarette to Ease My Mood
Jessie didn’t know when Alex sat on the bed while Jessie sat on his lap.
Alex was very good at kissing. In front of him, Jessie was just a rookie who had not been deeply involved in the world.
Not long after, Jessie clearly felt the changes that happened to Alex.
She seemed to be sitting on a hard rock.
Understanding what that was, she could not help but feel her mouth go dry.
He kissed her for a long time before he left her lips slightly.
His dark red eyes stared at her, and in just a second, he kissed her lips again.
He kissed her from time to time, then parted their lips and kissed again.
Jessie was so touched by him that she could not stop herself. She half-pushed and half whispered. “My cold will infect you. When my cold is fully cured, we will have sex again.”
“I can’t wait.” Alex’s eyes were full of desire. His voice was so low that it was silent.
The patient uniform on her was very convenient.
He turned around and pressed her down firmly.
Jessie suddenly felt a burst of pain on the back of her hand and she could not help but let out a low moan.
The two of them seemed to have reacted at this moment. She was still has an injection needles on the back of her right hand.
Seeing that Jessie’s fair and slender hand had swollen up and blood was flowing out, Alex’s face immediately turned ashen. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
Alex quickly got up from Jessie’s body and calmly held her hand. He pulled the needle out and used the cotton ball stuck on it to cover Jessie’s wound and pressed the emergency bell.
When the nurse rushed over, Alex had already tidied up his suit and Jessie’s hospital gown.
Because the time was too short, Jessie did not even have the time to put on the undergarments in her hospital gown. When the nurse came to change her hand for another acupuncture needle, Jessie was so shy that she covered her entire body in the blanket, only exposing one hand and one head. Her face was also as red as blood.
The nurse saw it and was very nervous. “Miss Jessie, it looks like you really have a very bad fever. Did you take the medicine just now? After I inject you, I’ll call the doctor to diagnose you.”
Jessie quickly said, “I have already taken the medicine. There is no need to call the doctor over. I am just a little hot.”
“Is that so? Then let your husband lower the temperature of the air conditioner.”
Hearing her say this, Jessie knew that the nurse misunderstood Jessie and Alex’s relationship.
Jessie was about to explain to the nurse when Alex answered in a deep voice, “I will be careful.”
With just one sentence, Jessie’s face became even redder.
The needle was inserted again and the swollen hand had also disappeared. However, there was still a large bruise.
Alex frowned and held her hand. His thumb rubbed the bruise back and forth, as if he wanted to wipe it off.
His callused finger made the back of her hand itch.
This itch seemed to have reached the tip of her heart.
Jessie wanted to pull her hand back.
Alex did not let go.
Alex’s slender fingers held onto her thin and white wrist, and just like that, they were in a deadlock
Alex’s black eyes stared deeply into her eyes.
Jessie’s face became hot again, and she could not help but lower her head, “What are you doing?”
Alex slowly let go of her wrist, got up and walked out.
Jessie raised her head almost at the same time.
Alex walked to the door and took a step. He turned around and saw her clear black and white eyes. His cold and hard lips curved up. “I will go and smoke a cigarette to relieve my mood.”
Hearing his meaningful ‘relief’, Jessie remembered his strong reaction when they kissed. Her face went from red to the root of her neck.
“Your face is so red. Did your fever really get worse?”
“No!” She quickly answered, but when she saw Alex’s deep eyes mixed with a few traces of mischievousness, she could not help but feel embarrassed and angry. “Hurry up and smoke your cigarette!”
Alex was inexplicably happy, and his smile reached the bottom of his eyes.
When Alex arrived at the smoking area, Alex held his phone in one hand and took out a cigarette in the other. He put it in his mouth and lit it with a lighter. He squinted his eyes and dialed.
After the call, he flicked the cigarette with one hand and held the phone with the other. “It’s m e. Change the plan of the land in the western suburbs. Move the original hotel area backward. The school will move east. One building in the third district will be reduced. The distance between the buildings will be increased accordingly. The overall structure will not change.”
“Boss Alex, may I ask, what is the purpose of this change?” Rick asked.
“The last building to the north has been excluded from the conscription.” Alex said.
“I understand.” Rick replied.
“Send me the plan after you change it,” Alex ordered.
“Okay, Boss Alex!” said Rick.
Jessie’s reaction just now was what Alex cared about. There was no need to ask who that person was. He had already guessed who the person who could make Alex change his decision

Jessie did not seek help from Alex. He knew that Jessie had concerns. He could understand and was prepared to ignore the lousy things brought about by her last marriage. But he knew that it was not Alex’s character to know that Jessie was bullied and did not take action.
The next day, Jessie went to buy breakfast.
After buying breakfast, she heard the familiar sound in the ward.
“I’m sorry, Mom. I don’t love Yura. I had no choice but to divorce Jessie. If I don’t have a good background, it would be difficult for me to take a step in this circle. My popularity has been exhausted for the past two years. If I don’t think of a way, I will be finished.”
“The company gave me a plan to find a woman in the circle to pretend to be a couple. Only then did I get together with Yura. Yura Family was very strong in R City. I have a good relationship with many people. As long as Yura and I are together. .. Not only can Yura bring me popularity, her parents will also introduce me to other powerful people. Even it was
Jessie who supported me until today, but to be able to have today’s results is also the hard work of the two of us. I don’t want to ruin this hard work. I can’t bear to let it go.”
“It’s useless no matter what I say now. I’m not here today to ask for your forgiveness. No matter how much you blame me, I should bear it. I will definitely compensate Jessie for the harm I have done to her.”
Jessie did not think that Mike would still have the face to come here. Jessie pushed open the door and used all her strength to not make herself angry on the spot. Instead, she tried her best to remain calm as she stared at Mike. “Get out!”
Mike turned to look at her. Mike’s eyes were red. “Jessie, I have no ill intentions. I know that Mom is sick. I came to see her.”
Jessie stared at him and gritted her teeth. “Can you go out?”
“You can go. You and Jessie have already divorced. Any decision you make has nothing to do with us. You don’t have to make this trip.” Jouvita could tell that Jessie was suppressing her anger and she could guess the reason for the divorce in her heart. Fortunately, after so many days, Jouvita had gradually calmed down regarding this matter. Now that she heard it again, she was not as excited as before.
When Mike heard this, he bowed deeply towards Jouvita and walked in front of Jessie. His voice was low and hoarse, “Yura did not bear my child and she deliberately angered you. Don’t take it to heart. Also, I have already moved my mother away. This is for you.”
He forcefully stuffed a file bag into Jessie’s hands and left in a hurry.
The file bag in Jessie’s hands fell to the ground. She forced herself to remain calm and bent over to pick it up.
“What is this?” Jouvita picked it up first and opened it to see what was inside. She looked up,” What is the matter with you guys? This house originally belonged to you! Why is it going to be transferred to you now?”
Jessie took it over. The document wrote that her house had been snatched away by Mike.
Alex returned to Mountain and River Residence after work.
He did not hear Rick making any noise when he entered the room.
Alex thought that the two children had been left behind by the teacher again. He picked up his phone and was about to call the teacher.
Driver Bart ran over to report, “Rick, Young Miss said that Miss Jessie will go and pick them u p. She will also go to Miss Jessie’s house to eat. She asked me to come back first.”
Jessie could only pick them up after work. It was more than an hour later than kindergarten.
It seemed that Fia and Felix had volunteered to stay at the school to wait for her.
Alex nodded and did not say anything.
Driver Bart smiled honestly, “Ever since Young Miss and Young Master were picked up by Miss Jessie the day they stayed at the school, they have been sticking to Miss Jessie. This is
the first time I have seen two children like one person so much.”
Alex’s lips curled into a smile, “Give me the car keys.”
He took the car keys and walked to the door. Alex turned back and strode upstairs into the bedroom
Alex took off his business suit, took off his tie, changed into a casual suit, and changed into a younger watch. He walked to the mirror and fixed his neat short hair before leaving the room
with satisfaction.
Jessie took a taxi to the school. Only Felix and Fia were left in the school.
It was the teacher who accompanied her the last time.
Jessie apologized. “I’m sorry, teacher. I wanted to come earlier. I didn’t manage to apply for leave, so I made you wait for a long time.”
Fia ran over and hugged Jessie’s hand as she giggled, “Not really long, Teacher Mirna will be staying at school. She was too bored and took the initiative to accompany us.”
“Yes, I am indeed free. Miss Jessie, hope you do not mind.” The teacher said with a good temper.
Fia was pleased with herself. “Look, That’s what I say it.”
Jessie quickly covered the little girl’s mouth, “Thank you, teacher. See you tomorrow!”
Jessie only heaved a sigh of relief after she pulled the two little fellows out.
Once out of the school, Fia was immediately attracted by the snacks in the roadside store,” Aunt Jeje, I want to eat that skewer!”
Jessie was just about to go and buy when a black car stopped by the roadside not far away
from them.
Felix looked at it. “Fia, if you don’t want to be punished, you better give up the idea of eating a t the roadside stall.”
“Why?”
“Because Dad is here.”
Fia quickly stopped running towards the store and quickly ran over to Alex’s car. “Dad!”
In ove
The window rolled down and Alex’s cold facial features became gentler.
Fia pouted unhappily, “Dad, why are you here? Didn’t I tell Uncle Bart not to pick us up today?
Alex ignored her and his deep eyes swept towards Jessie who was not far away.
She had just gotten off work and was wearing a white suit. Her waist was very thin, and her legs were even more straight and slender. Her long hair was neatly tied into a ponytail, and she was wearing light makeup. Her large eyes under her smooth forehead were beautiful and clean.
This was the first time Alex had seen her in such formal attire. He was a little dazed.
“I don’t want Dad to pick me up. I want to go with Aunt Jeje to her house.” Fia was still complaining. Fia walked over and coolly opened the car door. “Isn’t it good to have a free ride?
After opening the car door to the greatest extent, Felix looked at Jessie. His cool face had some gentleness. “Aunt Jeje, get in the car!”
