57. Your Things and Mine Don’t Need to be Separated In the afternoon, after the doctor confirmed that Fia was fine and that she only needed to cto the hospital for a week to change her dressing, Alex did the discharge procedures for Fia.
Alex drove the car over at noon.
He brought the children to the back seat and Jessie cout with a bag. Alex took the bag from Jessie’s hand and opened the door of the passenger seat, waiting for her to sit in.
Alex did these things to take care of Jessie very naturally, as if he did it subconsciously.
But it was precisely because of this that Jessie's heart beceven more flustered.
When they reached home, they heard Fia cheerfully call out ‘grandma’ and Jouvita coutt 0 welcthem.
Jessie still wanted to ask when Alex to leave, but Alex already carried Fia and walked into the house.
Jessie brought them to her room on the second floor, Jessie found that the suitcase of the LV was quietly placed in the corner of her room.
Alex put Fia on the bed and went downstairs.
Jessie's room had an old-fashioned wooden bed. It was very wide and big. The light blue bed sheets, blanket, and pillow covers looked very clean and soft.
Fia laid on the bed happily and wanted to roll around. Jessie looked at it with fear and trepidation and hurriedly stopped her with a smile, “You have injuries on your hands now, you cannot roll like this.” Fia took advantage of the situation and threw herself into her embrace and softly said in a somewhat embarrassed manner, “Aunt Jeje, | want to take a bath. | did not take a bath last night and felt a little uncomfortable...” Because Fia was injured last night, everyone had been busy the whole night and none of them had taken a shower or changed their clothes.
“Then you should lie down quietly for a while. | will go and prepare hot water.” Jessie got up.” Felix, watch her.” “Okay.” Felix said, then immediately did his duty by the bedside and looked at Fia.
Fia had just turned over when Felix immediately shouted from behind, “Don’t move!” Fia,”...” Nanchuan’s autumn was colder than R City. Jessie prepared a large basin of hot water and felt that the bathroom was still very cold. Jessie regretted not installing a heater in the bathroom before and now it was too late even if she wanted to install it.
Fia was injured and bathing might take more tthan usual.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJessie thought for a while and walked out of the bathroom to Jouvita’s room downstairs to get the heater that was used in the winter.
The downstairs was noisy and Jessie was still wondering why there were so many people at home.
Because of her mother’s illness, Jessie's family had cut off all contact with the relatives of her grandfather and grandmother. The people in town also avoided Jessie's family.
Jessie ran downstairs. The people who cand went in and out of the living room were very busy.
A lot of delivery workers moved several air-conditioners, water heaters, and other brand new electrical appliances into the house.
Jessie saw from the crowd that Alex was mixing with installer. He was wearing a light grey sweater and the slabor protection gloves as the workers. He was installing a Vertical Chamber Air Conditioner. He did not have a shelf at all. He moved and installed the Vertical Chamber Air Conditioner together with the installer. From tto time, he would give instructions on where to place it.
Jessie could not tell what she was feeling in her heart. She felt warm and panicked at the stime...
After the air conditioner was installed, Alex raised his head and looked over. Jessie's heart stopped beating and she turned her gaze away with a swoosh.
Alex and the staff carried the bathroom warmer and walked towards the stairs.
“Are you going upstairs or downstairs?” Alex walked up. His low magnetic voice made Jessie's ears heat up. She lowered her head and quickly ran down the stairs beside him.
Alex grabbed Jessie's wrist and said like he was talking to a child, “You run slower!” Jessie felt her heart burning. She shook off his hand and ran even faster.
Downstairs, a Deliveryman carried a roller washing machine in. When he saw her, he enthusiastically shouted, “Mrs. Laurent, where do you put the washing machine?” “I am not...” Jessie almost subconsciously retorted.
Alex turned his head on the stairs. “Put it in the laundry room behind us.” “Okay!” The Deliverymans and installers carried the washing machine to the laundry room at the back.
Jouvita’s room was also installed with air conditioning, and the house was busy.
Seeing Jessie cin, Jouvita, who was at a loss, hurriedly walked over with a worried look,” What do you think we should do with these things? Go and tell Alex to withdraw these things. These people won't listen toat all.” Jessie did not know how to put it. With Alex's overbearing character, how could he listen to her? Jouvita saw that she had a difficult expression and sighed, “Looks like Alex will not withdraw these things. How about this, we will give the money to Alex. Coincidentally, | have been thinking about buying these things. After buying these things, our lives will be more convenient.” The staff had already installed the air conditioner and brought over the remote control. He smiled and passed it to Jouvita. “Madam, you try it. If there’s no problem, we'll go and install something else.” “Okay, thank you for your hard work!” Jouvita took it and looked at Jessie, “I have saved all the money you sent back in the past. | will give it to you later. You give it to Alex.” “No need to take it. | have money here.” Since they were installing bathroom warmers, Jessie was not in a hurry to bathe Fia. Jessie went up and helped Fia put on her shoes again, telling her not to touch her injuries and to play with Felix.
Until they were all done pretending, the sky was already getting dark.
Now that they were safe and sound with the bathroom warmer, Jessie went to take a bath for Fia.
Alex sent the Deliverymans and installers away and went upstairs. Felix stayed on the sofa i n his room and watched cartoons with his IPad.
Alex had brought his iPad yesterday, but the elders did not need it, so they played with it for the children.
Alex was not surprised when he heard Jessie bathing Fia. He went to the balcony outside to smoke.
This was probably because of the blood relatives. Fia had never allowed anyone to bathe her since she was sensible. Even if Nanny Jin and Nanny Lisa helped, they would only let the two of them wait at the door of the bathroom. But when it cto Jessie, there was no longer any taboo.
Alex brought a lot of clothes for the children and Fia wanted to wear the new clothes Jessie bought. Jessie did not have tto wash the new clothes and Jessie did not let Fia wear it directly. She brought the clothes Alex brought for Fia to wear inside and then put on the pink dress that she bought for Fia outside.
“So beautiful, like a little fairy!” Jessie could not help but hug the little girl and take a sip.
Fia was extremely happy. She walked a few rounds in front of the mirror and went out to show off to Felix.
“Aunt Jeje also bought it for me.” Felix gave her a look as if he was saying, “Are you stupid?” Then Felix continued to watch cartoons.
Jessie took the little guy’s changed clothes out and saw Alex smoking on the balcony.
Alex had his back to the balcony and his tall body was slightly bent. One of his hands was on the railing, and the other was holding a cigarette. From tto time, the smoke would disperse in front of him.
This kind of him was more like a mystery man. It made people feel like they couldn't see through him or guess him. “Big brother, | want to see the Magic Fairies.” Fia sat next to Felix and stared at the iPad.
“Move aside!” Felix was looking at the Detective Coran with high regard. Fia pouted. “I am a patient!” “I don’t have any medicine.” “Felix, can’t you letsee the Magic Fairies?” mes “Felix, are you a man? Don’t you know that you have to let your sister choose first in everything?” The man’s deep voice cfrom the balcony.
Felix: “..."” This had nothing to do with whether he was a man or not....
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJessie lifted her head and looked at him. Alex’s dark and deep eyes stared straight at her.
She quickly avoided Alex and ran to the desk to put her iPad on, “Fia, use this to look at the Magic Fairies.” Fia and Felix each got an iPad and finally quietened down.
Jessie saw Alex slowly walking in and her heart was beating fast again. She hurriedly went downstairs to help Jouvita prepare dinner.
Jouvita saw her and quickly said, “It just so happens that there is no more Ginger at home. You go and helpbuy sGinger. | see that the two little fellows like to eat fish. Just now | went to buy another one but | forgot about Ginger after buying the fish.” “Okay.” Jessie turned around and went out. She bumped into Alex again.
She turned around and walked away quickly.
Jouvita saw Alex's tall figure in the kitchen and paused for a moment. She turned the fire down a little and wiped her hands on the apron as she walked out and said, “You guys call the way here. We don’t have anything to welcyou guys. Instead, we let you spend so much money.” Alex entered the kitchen and smiled faintly.
Jouvita looked at him with a serious look. “Alex, tellthe truth. What do you think of Emma?” Alex had not thought about how to answer.
Jouvita continued, “I only heard about it a while ago. Last t| was hospitalized in R City, You helped arrange it.
Emma had suffered a lot in my situation since she was young. So in many things, | tried my best to let her do as she pleased. Although Emma did not tellmuch about her previous marriage, But | know, just because of me... She must have suffered a lot of gossips and grievances over there. Emma toldabout your family’s conditions. If the two of you really want to be together, even if your family doesn’t mind that she had divorced before. There will still be a lot of resistance. Are you confident you can handle these things?” Jessie finished buying the ginger and returned to the courtyard to pick the spinach that her grandmother brought over.
Jessie heard the footsteps and looked up. Alex had taken a shower and changed into a black shirt and pants. The collar of the shirt was open and the exquisite cutting made the man’s tall and straight figure look taller.
“I changed my clothes and put them on the bathroom rack. Helpwash them later.” Alex walked over and pulled a small stool over. He picked up the spinach next to Jessie's hand and looked at it before putting it down.
Alex straightened his long legs and took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket.
Jessie remembered that she only bought toiletries for Felix and Fia and could not help but ask him, “Did you bring a towel and toothbrush?” Alex had just lit up the cigarette and narrowed his eyes to look at her, “No, | used the white towel in the bathroom.” “That's mine!” He acted as if it was only natural. “What's the problem?” Jessie's face turned red. “How can you casually use a woman's things?” “We have already slept. Do you still need to be so clear about your things and mine?” “You...” A burst of hurried footsteps interrupted Jessie's words.
“Emma!” Following the man’s unable to suppress his joy and clear voice, a slender figure walked past the main house and walked towards the backyard with large strides.
The person was a handsyoung man in a black suit and a white shirt. He wore a black tie on his collar and held a large and small gift box in his hand.
Jessie stood up and was full of surprise, “Tony, when did you cback?” “I just arrived. | heard you were at home, so | cover.” Tony's handsface still had a red flush on it. He walked up to Jessie with something in his hand. He hugged her. “We haven't seen each other for a few years, right? Letthink about it. It's been four years, right? Is it four years?” Alex furrowed his beautiful eyebrows.
