Chapter 420 420: Visiting her home...

Davis finished packing every single item Jessica had in the hospital ward without her lifting a finger.

Her gaze, however, had been trained on him the whole time, sharp and deliberate, as though the slightest distraction might result in a fatal accident.

Once he was done, he turned around to face her, his eyes softening in a way few ever saw.

Jessica felt unsettled with the warmth and softness of his gaze. Carefully she averted hers but she felt the heat creeping up her cheek.

Davis sighed quietly. "Babe, are you set?"

Jessica gave a small nod. Davis stretched out his hand toward her. "Let's go," he said gently.

She stared at the hand, her heart skipping a beat. After a deep exhale, she slowly placed her own hand in his.

With a firm, steady grip, Davis helped her rise to her feet. "Let's go," he murmured, casting her a meaningful glance. She nodded again.

Together, they left the ward, her hand secured in his while he carried her bag in the other.

As they walked through the hallway, Jessica couldn't help stealing glances at Davis with her thoughts racing…

At times she wondered how the cold, untouchable CEO of the Allen Group had ended up as her husband.

At other times she doubted it altogether. With no business ties, no connection between them, how could their paths have crossed, let alone led to marriage?

But most troubling of all was the effect his presence had on her. Everything about him stirred her heart, making her feel unsettled and sometimes overwhelming, a nature she had first noticed during his quiet companionship in the hospital.

Though, he might not utter any word but she could tell every one of his emotions right from where she is.

Taking a deep breath, she pushed the storm of doubts aside.

For now, I'll just go with the flow, she decided.

Outside the hospital lobby, the cool air grazed her skin and she shivered lightly…an action that didn't escape Davis' eyes.

"Are you feeling cold?" he asked anxiously.

Jessica shook her head quickly. Davis said nothing more.

Instead, he placed her bag in the backseat and courteously opened the passenger door for her.
